j counts for the nervous condition of the
market
' From Omaha Information It appears that
the elevator men In the Interior of tha
fate have been doing their bast to get
wheat to the market for weeks past, the
J tempting prices lending to work overtime,
j It has alao Inspired thrashing from the
j stack, and this has been demonstrated as
J riext to Imnnenlble until the wheat quits
i sweating, bhork threshing Is especially
; favored by buyers of wheat,
j Elevator men have been t eating the
i Omaha market very earnestly, and It has
j responded In excellent manner, and to their
1 satisfaction, but they have not given It a
? good on what might he done with
j nigh grade wheat. Omaha Is better than
2 Kansas City, It Is relatively higher than
J other receiving points, and If the right
j kind of wheat was sent In the elevator
I men would ho surprised at the results.
J Moreover, tha Omaha -market is not an
j experiment It la on a sure foundation and
ijust right for rapid and permanent growth.
It has every fncllltv that any market has
and is In direct wire touch with the foun
talnhead markets of the world,
f Chicago opened about tic higher on Sep
tember wheat, but not on December or
May. The opening of other markets was
stronger, while foreign advices were of a
favorable tenor. Immediately after the
opening there wns a disposition to take
profits, and numerous western selling
orders were received. This turned Sep
tember down from an opening at $1.04 to
$1.0114 by 10 o'clock, and from there the
rally to ti ns'! wns accomplished before 11
o'rlook. Then It went off again and was
erratic within a narrow range.
As the session progressed tha Chicago
commission houses kept Increasing their
srosalD and the tone of It was all on tho
Vat" bear side. They talked of better crops In
r" the northwest, of exaggerated rust stories
Slid of the long lino of September wheat
t held In their establishments. The result
i of this persistent effort was to dislodge a
' great amount of wheat and a gradual de
j cllne of 2Vo In wheat.
The final figures were Just a small frac
tion above the low point.
Corn was strong early, but followed the
, course of wheat, and oats acted In a simi
lar manner, the former losing about a'
point net and the latter about .

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Volume of Business Betrays a Manifest
Decline.
UNION PACIFIC PULSE OF THE MARKET
Efforts to Divert Speculative Interest
Into Kerr Channels Ptotcs
Only Partially Successful.
NEW YORK, Aug. 12 Triers was a par
tial halt In tne p.cultttive movement to
day and a snrinKage In the volume of
aeultng. 'i he news of the asy oiler no
c,er explanation of tne hesitation in tne
market, nut the disposition was gvneral 10
take pronts on lecent connuo.aule ad
vances. Luton Pacino s opening decline of
a point was effective notice ut thia ten
dency and the orop in southern Pacluc,
with the tall In the Metropolitan transac
tions relnlorced It. Efforts were made to
divert speculative Interest to new quar
ters ana there was occasional advances
here and tnere 01 a point or more, but
the movermnt lacked enthusiasm and was
not convincing to sentiment. Heading was
choen for an advance of a point, notwith
standing reports In circulation that a large
curtailment of anthracite production tor
August was Intended, and a total suspen
sion of output tor a largo part of Septem
ber In contemplation.
The strength of Amalgamated Copper re
sulted In a revival of ihe repeated rumors
of a settlement of the contentions of cop
per Interests. The wheat market Itself re
flected an unsettlement of the specu:atlon
based on damage reports, but the reaction
In wheat failed to benefit stocks to any
extent. Atchlon was the only one of the
grangers to show a degree of strength
and Its rise above 80 was attributed more
to corn prosiiects than to wheat. United
States Steel preferred was held for only a
brief time above last nights level snd
showed the -effect of the In-lstent rumors
of cuts In the prices of steel products.
Although exports of domestic products
for July again show a decline from the
previous yesr of $9.fi2.00O, chiefly to bread
stuffs, the time Is near now when a supply
of cotton bills may be looked for In the
exchange market, making the profit on a
gold shipment very haxardou'. The Cunan
gold shipments will affect the showing by
the banks, hut money has continued to
flow lo this center from the Interior and a
further gain In cash receipts is looked for
In tomorrow's bank statement. An effort
wan made to rally the late market by
marking up Southern Pacific to 5f.. but
that stock fell back when the Metropolitan
transactions showed renewed weikness, and
the closing was dull and easy. Bonds were
Irregular; total sales, par value, $2,431,000.

There were scarcely enough western grass
beef steers on the market to test the sit.
uation. Buyers seemed to want a few and
bought those that arrived at steady to
strong prices as compared wltn yesterday.
The same as with corn-feds, though, tneir
wants were very limited.
The cow market showed some little im
provement on the better grades, but there
were so tew on sale that even though buy
era did not want many there were ncarcely
enough to go around. In some cases sales
were made that looked as much as a dime

and medium grades the market was slow
and only about steady.
Bulls, veal calvea and stags sold In much

About the usual Friday . conditions pre
vailed -In the Blocker and feeder division
this morning. There were very few fresh
arrivals and they were hard to move at re
duced prices. The demand from the coun
try for the last few days has been very
limited and as a result speculators have
quite a few cattle on hand, with Indica
tions favorable for some of them being
carried over until next week. Representa

HOOS There was a very moderate run of
hogs here this morning, receipts amounting
to about 4.6S5 head, 'i'he market was rather
slow in opening, as advices from Chicago
were very discouraging to the selling in ter
cets. Shippers again had liberal orders to
1111 and as local packets also wanted some
more hogs the market here held Junt about
steady with yesterday's close. Trading,
though, was not active and It was lute be
fore the bulk of the hogs on sale was dis
posed of. So many have been curried over
from day to day that while receipts were
light the actual number 011 sale was large.
The bulk of the sales went from $4.75 to
$4.65, with prime lightweights from $4 H5 to
$6. Coarse heavy packing grsdes were
again extremely hard to move ami In fact
II ere were a good many loads In the yards
this morning that have been here fur sev
eral days 011 which not n bid has been
places.
At noon there were a (.ofid many hogs left
In first hands snd buyers seemed lo be
Is'led up so that Indications were favorable
for most of them being carried over. As a
general thing those uunold were heavy and
many of them were rather roarite. That
t Una of boss was almost unsalable as buy
ers all seemed to want the llnhter welalug
and those of better quality. Representative

SH EEi' Recelnts of sheerj were lust
bout the fame as they have been of laie
and the demand was certainly no oetter.
Buyers went out and picked up a lew st
stendy prices and then trailing was very
slow on the remainder. There seemed to
be no life to the trans and buyers old not
appear 10 care whether they got much of
anything or not.
1 here were some more reeders on sale
this morning and they chsngod hands with
out difficulty. Some of the same Wyoming
wethers that sold for feeders yesterday at
$3.25 brought the same price today.
