OMAHA. May It. 1904.
Dollar wheat again today. The short
are suunpeaed. burprls grow at tha con.
tmued builisn maraet and everyone ex
tracts a reaction. The wheat baa (una up
la a few oaya cent, xnis la in ine lace
of perfect weather, whlcn will oo raucn to
change tha unfavorable prospect of a few
weeks ago, ot the unprecdantedly bad
flour situation which decreases by almost
half tha consumption of wheat in Minne
apolis, and lastly of the almost abeoiuie
lack of Intereat on the part of European
market and of a foreign demand so email
the entire aeaboard has shipped during
April only t.Vuu.iAM bushels. It la pointed
out tha general condition and the w or lit a
supply are such aa to make continued
firicee such as have ruled for several days
rnpossible. Duluth has been practically
hut out of the market by the suspension
of lake traJTio by the regular lines, 'ihe
Buffalo elevator men have struck and
added to the tleup. This has thrown all
the eastern business on Chicago, and tne
wheat la going out at not lees than lOO.Uuw
bushels daily and more would go If boats
could be obtained. While some of the
peculators take the larger view of the
condition, some are busy taking the con
tract wheat at Minneapolis and Chicago.
The stock at the former city has decreased
860, 0OQ buahela so far this week and the
latter will not last more than ten days.
Omaha and Council Blurts elevators hold
161.883 bushels of wheat, but the amount of
contract stuff la supposed to be small.

future delivery and the close Wednesday

Ixxal Cash' Grain) Market.
"I have Just been over" the country around
Creaton and Red Oak," said a cash corn
man. ."and the people there are certainly
blue. They have no corn and are buying
it from us here and from east of them.
This is the first time that they have not
had all the corn they needed, and It hurts
their pride to have to buy. That part of
the slate raises com and nothing else.
They have had so much rain the water Is
running out of the hilltops. The little
draws down the -hillsides are running water.
It was the same last spring. The plowing
and planting have been delayed. But June
1 for corn ic not late in Iowa, so they are
not really worried. I can see, though,
where our market will get a chance to
ell considerable corn to those Iowa feed
ers."" Omaha speculators opened up tha Sep
tember wheat today and bid it up from 6o
to 7110 In order to be in line with the

Bteel fader Pesalmlstle Reports
Has a Dracglaa- Effect aa
the Market.
NEW TORK, Msy 9.-The stock market
continued Inert and almost llfelexs todav.
When prices ceased their slow downward
tendency the market fell Into profound
(dullness and neglect, thus reflecting the
unwillingness of any buyers to take stocks
on sn upward scale of prices. The trading
started with some light gains, due to the
sympathetic Influence of the London mar
ket. The resumption of selling of United
States Steel preferred on the continued
offerings of pessimistic leports from the
Iron trade was the flrat drag upon the mar
ket. The aubtreasnry statement showing
gains st the expense of the banks for the
week of 311,290,000 promised another form
idable Inroad upon the surplus reserve of
the banks. Sterling exchange showed a
slightly yielding tendency. The Bank of
England sustained Its discount rate, but
the open rate in Paris receded and the
Bank of France statement showed the
growing plethora of resources of that in
stitution. The weather map was pro
nounced Ideal for the crops, hut the con
tradictory strength In the wheat market
neutralized the effect of this. The severe
reduction In New York Central's net earn
ings for the quarter emphasised the de
mand for bonds from other quartera.
Notice late In the day of an offer for
subscriptions next week to a $:i6.000.0uO
Cuban bond Issue la another factor prom
ising to prolong the demand for gold ex
port. But this did not prevent prices from
retracing their previous course In sym
pathy with a rally In United States Steel
preferred, leaving the day's conditions
again wholly Insignificant. Bonds were
dull and rather heavy, with late recovery.
Total sales, par value. $1, 265.000. United
States bonds were unchanged on call.
Following was the range ot prices on the

CATTLE There was a very small run
here this morning, about 100 cars being on
sale. Packers got about all the cattle they
needed yesterday for their immediate re
quirements and for that reason were a lit
tle slow to advance prices today, even In
the face of the light run. Trading, how
ever, was fairly active, with prices fully
steady, everything being disposed of In
good season. 1 .
- The beef- steer market was only?, fairly
active, with prices fully -steady: The' good,
handy-weight cattle were in the best
demand, the same as usual, and In a good
many Instances sold af prices that looked
a little stronger than those paid for the
same kinds yesterday. On the other hand.
ackers were inciinea 10 negieci uw piain
aw cattle, and in fact the commoner
kinds of all weights, so that taking tne
market aa a whole It was not a great deal
better than yesterday. A good olearance
was made, tnougn, Dy ma miaaie 01 iuo
forenoon. . ' - .. .
The cow market was also fully steady
arlth vaaterdav. Some of the more de
sirable grades may have been a little
stronger, but common kinds were no more
than steady and none too active. There
were comparatively few on sale, so that an
early clearance was made. ,
There is nothing new to be said of bulls,
veal calves and stags, as prices are about
the same as tney nave ueou iur tua .i
few- days.
Very few stockers and feeders arrived
with which to make a test of the market.
Anything desirable can safely be quoted
active and fully steady and the commoner
grades also brought fully steady prices

HOGS There was another big run of
hogs here this morning, over !00 cars being
reported. As compared with yesterday s
enormous receipts, there wss quite a de
crease. The market was slow and lower.
Packers did not seem to be very anxious
for supplies owrhg to the heavy receipts
of the last feW days. At the beginning
thev went around and picked out the better
loads at a decline of about a nickel. They
sold largely from 8445 to 84 60, with the
choicest grades from $480 to 4.0. The
llftht and common stuff had to go from
$4.45 down. After about seventy-five loads
had changed hsnds the market Weakened
and for a time not, much business was done.
Packers, thougn, finally bought what was
left at just about the same prices aa were
paid earlier In the day. - Common hog,
though, were -hard dispose of and went
largely from 84.4)fJ4.46, or a -nickel lower
than the better grades. At noon practically
everything, escept a few common loads,
was disponed of, so that a good clearance
was made In spite of the fact that tba
market was slow. Representative sales:
