OMAHA, August 25. irU
The volume of business In tne grain mar
kets was materially less than on yesterday.
The Immediate opening In all mam was
easier, but the trend chsnged st once to
ward a partial recovery of the serious
break of yesterday, the advance he Ins, In
duced by the covering; of short sellers who
were enabled to take in a few profits for
once, a rather novel occupation lor wheat
bears. The news of the morning was In
line with the reports that have been com
ing from time to time of rust and damsge,
but from a few sections there were encour
aging tales. The big drop of yesterday
ma'ld quite a h&nge In the bid prices sent
out from Omaha and there were but few
acceptances this morning traders ahowing
a disposition to wait fur a more settled
condition of sffalrs. Omaha speculators
hesitated and there was really nothing do
ing In the mmket for futures, also cash
prices sustained some break, but many held
their sample on the market expecting a
better rally and higher figures before the
close of the week this was especially the
case with wheat samples
Jones wired from Manitoba, and his gos
sip, published elsewhere, was In the same
old Mraln that first started wheat on the
up grade. Chicago commission houses
were not disposed to. press for selling
orders, but the speculative element favor
ing at this timo that side of the market
was ready for the first signs of weakness
to go after lower figures. They did not
have much chance until very lute In the
session, when the shorts, having covered,
left the market. Then, too, corn started
down with considerable spued on the gen
eral opinion against frost and especially
the support this side of the question
received from the weather man. The
drop In this cereal started wheat on the
slide again and lVc of the advance was
lost. The May future was the especial
favorite with the Chicago speculators, and
the bulk of the business was for that de
livery. Heptember was less active, but opened at
ll.oaa 1.03', as compared with $1.0;!". yes
terday's close, then rallied under short
covering to U 06 V and In the last half
bour droped back to $1.06. December,
ll.MSIil -04 to 11.07. and back to 11 .; May,
$1 WSVfll.07 to tl.lO' and back to Si. 09.
Here la the latest from Jones on the
situation In Manitoba:
"Northwestern Canada has suffered se
verely from rust In wheat. It is difficult
to estimate the damage In bushels. In a
sense, an estimate Is little better than a
guess, as fields are In all conditions, from
small damage to a total loss. In my Judg
ment the maximum yield of Manitoba und
the northwest territories will not exceed
42,000,0(10 bushels, as compared with 6.1,000,000
last year, and the damage may prove seri
ous enough to drop the yield to 35,000,000.
It csrtalmy will with frost, which Is possi
ble within four days. The Canadian rail
road officials and the 'man who has talked
with the farmer' have treated rust news
with contempt. These interests will re
ceive an awakening at threshing."
Corn started out with a sharp advance to
64Vc for September, as compared with 58e
at yesterday's close on the fear of frosts.
This Induced quite a little covering and
then when the weather man expressed hla
conviction that frost was not at all proba
ble tonight, the bears got arter corn and
hammered It down to &3"e again. Decem
ber, which had been to bic, or lc better
than on Wednesday, broke buck to fiSjc,
and May from 62Hc to bc. Oats were
rather slow, but comparatively steady and
within Vo of the final figures of yesterday.

CHICAGO, Auir. 26 The wheat market
experienced a frost scare to.lav, whd h,

over the previous close. Fln.il quotations,
however, showed pet galno of but He to
kIi. Corn Is off c to e. Oats closed
S5V down. Provisions scored losses of
2o to lc.
At the start there were bulls In the
wheat trade who maneuvered for a further
break snd so managed their manipulations
that prices dipped below those of the pre
vious day. September started with a ow
of ifS!e. snd December fir off. The
weakness was only temporary, and buying
at the lower prices soon rsllled the mar
ket and set It on an advance that carried
September to 81 0f and December to $1.07.
Temperatures In the Canadian northwest
were regarded 'as close enough to the dsn
ger line to make It advisable not to sell.
Toward the end of the session the market
weakened on heavy profit taking. Ijte
weather reports Indicated rising tempera
tures for Ftldav'in the frost -menaced
districts. The break In corn prices re
acted upon the wheat market. All operated
to reduce the advance to modest dimen
sions. September closed at 11.04 and De

equal to 54.300 bushels. Primary receipts
were 23.000 bushels larger than a year

In the dav messages from Omaha told of

sharp reactlom. The upturn In wheat
prices also added motive power to the ad
vance Septemlwr at Its best touched 5oc
and December 54c. Late, reports on the
new crop were of an emphatically bearish
nature and Induced liberal selling at the
top prices. The result waa a loss of more
than the early advance, and a weak tone
at the close. September finished at 63c,
with December down to 61fu61c. Local
receipts were 167 cars.
Oats did not seem to catch the bull spirit
which prevailed In the other grain markets.
Trade was not large and was chiefly on
the selling side. There was a continued
selling pressure by cash houses, notwith
standing receipts were only moderately
heavy. September started unchanged at
S.10 and December unchanged to a shade
ofT, at 34e to 34iS34c. Roth deliveries
made a small fractional sdvance, but closed

much the same notches they did yesterday
Trading was quite active ail along the line
and It took only a short time tor every
thing offered to change hands.
For the size of the receipts there were
quite a few cows and heifers on sale, but
none too many to meet the requirements ot
the trade. As a general thing the market
was a little stronger than vesterday
though of course there was more or leys
unevenrieasi so that come salesmen did not
quote It more than steady. As compaied
with the middle of Inst week, which was
the low point of the season, the market
is now 60c per hundred higher. Canners
can bo sold now, which was scarcely the

still rather limited for that class of cattle
Bulls, veal calves and stags did not show
any particular change from yesterday.
The feeder market was hardlv as Arm
today as It was yesterday. Choice heavy
feeders sold readily at etesdy prices, but
aside from those the market was not so
active and In sjme cases prices looked
a little lower. The fact thst it Is retting

HOGS Receipts of hogs mere lighter than
generally expected this morning and with
a normal demand from both shloners and
packers the market ruled active and higher.
At the opening of the market the advance
amounted to a big nickel or to 5fS10c, and
later on when It became evident that both
packers and shippers had liberal orders the
market gained in activity and strength and
was generally a dime higher. It took only
a short time for everything In sight to
change hands. Heavy hoga sold largely
from 16.06 to 85.10, with some of the better
loads as high as 16.16. Mixed loads went
from 15 10 to 85. JO and prime lightweights

kiit i. 4-rhr2 aaa a verv light run ot
heep ncre this morning, oniy rive cars be
ing icported. A much iiiotc liberal rtin was
generally anticipated and as packers all
wanted a few tne market ruled active snd
stronger. The prices paid tor the belter
grades were much the same as those in
torce on Tuesday, though some of tne com
moner kinds tm.y not nave been quite as
high as on that day. A good clearance,
though, was made at an early hour.
There were Just a lew teeders on sale and
the supply of desirable grades was far
short of the demand. The teeder market
can safely be quoted active and steady on
anything at all decent.

Sees Spots 01 the Moon.
CAMBRIDGE. Muss., Aug. 25.-A tele
gram has been received here from Prof.
W. H. Pickering, who Is at the Lowe ob
servatory. California, tending to confirm an
observation of a spot on the moon, made
by him last month. He saw a hazy patch
In the large lunar crater, Tlato, which
had not been detected before. It was
again seen on August 2 snd 1. It had then
grown dork, measured about two Inehas In
diameter and resembled a small crater.
The object Is said to coincide In poiltlon
with a previously recorded craterlet, but
Is apparently btrger. Renewed scrutiny In
the last few day reveals the continued
existence of the feature, which now meas
ures three miles aero Two other tiny
craterlets nd a dark snot on the floor
of Pluto, not previously reported, also are
announced by Prof. Pickering.
