OMAHA. March a, 104.
The principal interest in the iim mar
lot tooay was alternation aa to what the
government report wuuid show as to farm
leeerve. There la a great diversity of
opinion on the matter of wheat and corn
supplies, and the report will be tne first
ngures out fof ionic time. The Ohio elate
report gives the winter wheat condition for
March aa 71. The condition in January
u 72, a year ago t and lam July as. The
Modern Miller is slightly bearlsn. It finds
the conditions tinuaually favorable for win
ter wheat, especially where the plant has
tome out from under It covering of Ice
and anow. The top growth la a ma 11, par
ticularly, in the late aown, which In some
sections has not ahown above the ground.
Elsewhere the plant la green and thriving.
Winnipeg' a government report for Manitoba
shows Is per cent of the crop atlll In farm
er' hands.
The speculative market waa rather strong
today, but did not eahjblt any Mreworka.
The May, before noon, covered a range of
from $1.15N to $1.1 tTfc. This la practically
the range of Thuraday. Cables were rather
weak, Uverpool going off from St"1.
Herlln being unchanged and Uuda Pesth
weakening 4. The Argentina visible eup
ply shows wheat at $.118,000 bushels, against
4.72.000 bushela a year ago. The Argentina
shipments are 1. 7O4.00O bushels, sgalnat 8,684,
( buahela a year ago. New York la re
ported to be due for another shipment of
Oregon wheat from Antwerp. Thla la to be
fcoft.oiiO bushela and ta eald to te the laat
almllar shipment to be rnade. Wheat clear
anrea were SS.Ml- buahela. which la larger
than fof aoma time. The north weatern cara,
Including Chicago, are 2A2 todav, 404 last
week and 275 laat year. The northwestern
elevator stocks are being cleared out In an
ticipation of the tax levy, which comes
April 1. The stocks are estimated at $.600.
fl") bushels, or half of what they were at
thla time laat year. The primary receipts
re aTl.OSO bushels, against 434.000 bushela
ast year, and the shlpmenta are 249.000
bushels, agslnst 1:4. onn bushels last year.
If the government report shows 75,ono,ono
or ioo.ow.ouo bushels more in farmera hands
than waa ahown last year It will show that
durlngjhe first four months of thla crop
from lX.000,000 to 1dO.000.OuO buahela more of
torn has been consumed than laat year.
The cron of 1908 was 2.244.000.000 bushels
and the farm reeerve March 1 waa 839.000.-
000. showing a consumption In the four
months ending March 1 or L400.uuo.ooo bush
els. The crop of last year waa figured at
1.465,009,000 buahela. If the reserve March 1
prove to be 100,000,000 buahela larger than
last Mtren, or 40.onu,uo ouaneia. it win
show that the consumption has been 1,627.-
OOO.OOO, or 125,000,000 bushels more than last
year. Tf the Increase In the reserve proves
to be less than 100.uu0.000 bushels It will show
the consumption hns been Just that much
more. These are the figures on which the
bulla have to base their Idea that corn is
a good thing. Argentine presents another
bull argument. The shlpmenta were only
198,000 bushels. The demand there Is strong
for export, with the arrivals at ports very
small. The Argentine' vislbio Is, however,
7M.0O0 bushels, against 51.000 a year ago.
The shlpmenta a year ago were 531, OHO bush
els. Tlis primary receipts of corn are
7M.000 bushels, against 460,000 last year
and the shipments are 462,000 bushela
agslnst ,286,000 a year ago.

CHICAOO, March 3-Trsde waa brought
almost to a halt here today in nil grain
and provisions. The chief reason seem
ingly waa a report that the attempted
equeeie in wheat for May. delivery had
never In reality been abandoned. With
the exception or May wheat, which Is up
VeV'. closing prlcea are practically Identi
cal with yesterday's nnal quotations. From
tart to finish the wheat market showed
little signs of animation, business tielng
confined to trades of small proportion.
Notwithstanding lower prices at Liver
pool, the market here opened quite ateady.
May being a shade lower to Mfc lower
at Sl.laei.l&S to 11. H; July was VbV
lower to a shade higher at Smfl9:ic. Com
mission houats showed a tendency to mako
moderate piiruhnees, but offering were ex
tremely light. A rumor that the May deal
waa still In operation and that the price
of the May option would soon sharply
advance appeared ta be the tualn factor
In restricting offerings. The market was
bearishly affected by a report f a flt.
Louis trade paper claiming that fall sown
wheat to be In good -conditio!. - ITospeots
of an early epriiu aueea some swuinir
of the July delivery. In consequence the
innA r 1 m nntmn was relatively wchr-i
than May. At I1.14T May reached the low
est point of the (lav. The bottom price on
July was W4c. CovertoaT by snorts caused
May to rallv to 11 16. In sympathy July
sold up to 9PMiC. The market closed nbout
steady with May at ll.lttfc. KJnal quota

wheat and flour were eu.ua! to U2.4 bush

Bmall acceptances from the country

to maintain a firm undertone. May opened

The main factor In the oats market waa
a good demand for the cash grain, shtp-
Cers and elevator Interests being active
uyera. A moderate advance In cash prices
tended to stimulate speculative trading.
The market was steady the entire day.

NEW YORK. March $. A number of In
cidents occurred today which served to
upset speculative sentiment on the Stock
exchange and renew apprehension over the
reliability of many reports regarding com
binations and mergers of existing proper
ties which have been msde the ground for
buying stocks for some time.
The market was weak from the outset,
owing, it wss said, to an unexpected vol
ume of selling for foreign account. The
unfavorable news regarding the Russisn
position al the seat ot-war and some sug
gestive rumors of possible Internal dis
turbances In the empire to take form on
Sunday were supposed to account for the
weakness from foreign sources. The wesk
ness was again pronounced In the Pacific
nnd New urk Central stocks. The mar
ket showed good recuperative force from
the first decline and there were occasional

CATTLK There was only a fair run of
cattle In aight for a Friday, and aa the
demand was quito brisk, the. market ruled
active and strong on anything that would
do to kill. Buyers were all out early and
It waa not lung before everything was dis
posed of.' J
The market on beef steers could safely
be quoted active and strong and, the same
aa usual under such conditions, some sales
were made aa much na a dime higher.
Packera all seemed to be anxious for them
and aa a result competition was keen. Aa
compared with a week ago the market on
practically all grades Is fully , a quarter
higher and some salea show even' more Im
provement than that. . . .-, e -
The cow market was also , active and
stronger, sales going all tho way from
steady to a dime higher. Aa compared with
a week ago the market may be quoted 2o
85c higher, the Improvement being on all
gradea, the common kinds having advanced
along with the choicer cattle. The demand
has apparently been In excess of the sup
plv all the week, 'and 'consequently each
dsv'a offerlnga haa been well cared fof.
The bull market waa also strong today
and for the week prices have advanced
fully as much as cows. Best gradea are
now selling up to $4.00, agalnat $3 50 a week
ago. Veal calves were strong, the top be
ing $6.00.
There were only g few stockers and feed
ers on sale today and speculators bought
them at good, steady prices, even though
It waa Friday. The demand from the coun
try this week haa been In good ahape and
prlcea are a big 26c higher than a week
ago. Aa high aa $4.50 was paid yesterday
bv a feeder for cattle to go back to the
country. Representative sales:

non There were not as msny hugs
here today ae arrived yesterday by about
$600 bead, as will he seen from tne Utile
above. The demand was good, and with
favorable reports from other points, the
market ruled active and generally a nickel
higher. Trading began In good sesaon, and
aa salesmen as a rule were sstlsfled with
the prices offered. It was not long before
the fnilk of the offerlnga waa disposed of.
The lighter weights told largely from $4.i5
down, butchers and mixed $4.754a4W and
heavies $480 to $40. The advance waa on
all kinds, the lights aa well at the hravles.
Toward the close of the msrkst, however,
the feelfrg was hardly aa good and the lata
arrivals were a trifle slow and weak. Rep
