OMAHA. Fept. 11. 1911.
Th foreign situation continues to be
bullish, Ihe demand lor all loodntuf fs, both
human and animal, la very active abroad.
Reports front our spring wheat stales
la nlo bullish, wet weather adding to the
damage already done. Threshing returns
are not good either as to quality or quan
tity. It In thought a good deal more ex
port business Is being done than is re
tried und the trade la watching foreign
conditions closely.
The corn crop la undoubtedly a short one
compared with an average year and very
ihort compared to last year. Present prices
uie based on the largest crop of corn ever
rilscd In the country. Hull leaders are
confident and the cash situation Is a
strung one; all the corn marketed will be
needed.
Reports of a less strained situation be
tween Oermany and Morocco gave wheat
an easier tone, Prices eased off on selling
pressure. Cash wheat lower.

CHICAGO GFIAI AS-D PROVISIONS
Feature a of the Trn dinar and Closing!
Prlrea on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Sept. 11. Official announce
ment that although the potato crop In
Oermany Is badly short the promised yield
of grain Is about the same as last year,
had a weakening effect today on the pt,ce
of wheat. Closing figures were lo to lV(t
Hc lower than Saturday night. All other
leading staples, too, showed a net decline,
corn c to tafijc, except for September,
oats s.cji'Hc and provisions to 10i50c.
Weakness at Berlin found a prompt re
sponse In Chicago. In the absence of a
more definite reason, a drop In the quota
tions cables from the German capital was
first attributed to big world shipments,
with a surprisingly heavy total credited to
the Danube. Liverpool stocks were also
said to be accumulating In a rapid man
ner. Besides the foreign news there was
depressing Influence felt from hedging
sales In the American northwest, particu
larly aa a change to bright favorable
weather pointed to a decided Increase in
the movement of shipping wheat. No Im
portant rally occurred at any time during
the day. December, after ranging from
WHc to 97Hc closed steady, but IWqlhio
down at 96&fl6c.
Corn made a more bullish display rhan
any other cereal, owing to a little export
business. September finished with a net
gain of H'S'le. Other positions suffered
from weakness of wheat and closed weak,
with December ta off at 64fa64Mic, pter
fluctuating from 64c to 64Hc Cash grades
were firm. No. 2 yellow was quoted at
67(&rt74c.
Trade In oats received a check on the
buying side because of fear of reciprocity.
High and low levels reached by December
were 4ii'c and 45o. The close, 45Tc, rep
resented a net decline of c.
Heavy selling on the part of packers
broke the market for hog products. In the
end pork was 80ra0c down arid other pro
visions off 1012Hc

NEW YORK, Sept. 11. After opeulng on
a considerably higher level, stocks fed to
the lowest point ot the year and then re
covered. Net changes were slight in most
cases and the final rally was so Bplnted
that many ot the active issues ciosed with
small gains, running up to a point In Read
ing and Southern Pacific.
Opening gains, ranging from 1 to 3
points, were due to the earlier rise of
prices In the London market. Traders took
advantage of the rise to sell stocks. The

dispatches tram the west, ' Indicating
bi ighter prospects. Pressure against
United Slates Steal was coincident
with reports that operations at the
corporation's mills are now on a
smaller scale than at any time during
August. A cut in tha dividend of Texas

surprise even In speculative circles. The

CATTLE Cattle receipts were very lib
eral this morning, being the largest of any
Monday since three weeks ago. Strictly
good cattle were not overly plentiful, a
large percentage of the receipts being on
the trashy order. While all cattle in first
hands were sold at the close of last week,
speculators carried over a good many feed
ers, and as these cattle were still In the
yards, they helped to depress the general
market. The liberal receipts at other mar
ket points also had a bear Influence upon
the trade, while packers were offering as
an excuse for their backwardness the re
ported poor consuming demand of meat
products at eastern selling points. All
these qualities combined to muke tne gen
eral market extremely slow and dull and
the forenoon was well advanced before
enough business had been transacted to
really make a market.

steady or close to steady prices. The gen
eral market on Deei came uuma
quoted as steady to loo lower than last
"Ijowi and heifers were steady largely
because the supply of butcher stock was
not very burdensome. The bulk, of the
receipts consisted of steers.
The yards were full of feeders and the
trade was slow, buyers taking plenty of
time for selections. Prices were around
10c and in some coses 104jl6c lower than
last week.

HOGS Small supply of hogs met with a
bulllnh demand, bulk ot offerings selling at
figures a nickel higher. The needs of tue
trado were very well gauged to the slxe
of receipts, however, and after more ur
gent orders hod been filled early, the
market became dull and finished little, If
condition. Closing prices showed little. If
any, improvement over sales reported bat
urday. About forty loads were received In all,
but movement at no time had very much
life. The ordinary kinds of butchers were
more plentiful than any other class of
stock and usually sold on local packing
account. Shippers and speculators pur
chased less than a halt doen full loads of
animals, the lightest dally buy in a long
UBnlk moved at a spread of $6.857.0S, as
compared with Saturday's narrow spread
of s6.96fe7.00, and best bacon grades on
sale reached $7.10.

lambs arrived today that has been recorded
sine the high-water mark receipts of 1910.
All of this season's records were broken in
a run of over 60,000 head, this total ap
proaching the largest run ever received
here within only a few thousand head.
Something like 90 per cent of the entire
offerings were lambs and the proportion of
fat classes proved seasonably limited,
feeders made up the big end of the supply
and the market. In which country buyers,
speculators, etc., held forth, promised to
be the busIesC
Nothing much was done early to try out
values, however, as more or less time was
required to shape up receipts in selling
form. Another condition that caused delay
was the fact that the eastern points were
well filled up. prompting buyers to "wait
for 4 line" on pries prospects elsewhere.

SNAKE CHARMER GETS BUSY
Rattlers Bite Into Plons Theories
Other specimens of Reptile
Stories.
William Talklngton, who came Into
notoriety in Wellington, Kan., a few years
ago through hU connection with a unique
religious sect, popularly known ss Snake
charmers died recently.
Talklngton, who was a wealthy farmer,
became so carried away with the d c
trlnes of the rect that he would have
deeded all his property to one of their
prracheis had not his son, Roy, succeeded
In getting a guardian appointed by the pro
bate court, this same son afterward be
coming a convert hltme'f. His Wife died
. of typho!d fever without medical sttent on,
because the belief of the feet forbade It
He was prosecuted for criminal neglect
but the Jury failed to convict. The TaHt
Ingtons later went to western Kama
where they organised a colony of th
Snnke Charmers' cult.
From time to time reports of tnemberi
being bitten, while handling rattlesnakes
have appeared in the papers. Talking
ton s wife died from a snake bite a couple
of .years ago, and soon afterward Talking
ton himself was bitten by a rattler he was
handling. He recovered after a long 1.1
ness, but never was In good health asaln
He leaves an estate In this county valued
at fully $20,000.
Hunting snakes for a living is the occu
pstion of a Mexican In San Antonio, Tex.
who finds a ready market for all the ven
omoua reptiles he catches. The buyer Is
a dealer In West Commerce street, who
supplies shows, museums and scientists.
The snakes are told by weight, and fo
choice specimens of rattlers 25 cents
pound Is paid. The Mexican has two way
of catching a rattler. An old one Is caught
by placing a forked stick over Its body
Just back of ths head and holding It down
until the snake catcher can grasp It safely
and drop It Into a sack. Young rattlers
are grabbed by the Mexican with his hffhd
and dropped Into a sack without using the
forked stick.
In catching water moccasins the hunter
wades Into the stream, carrying a noose,
which Is dropped Into the water in front
of the snake and pulled up as It swims
through. Small moccasin", like tmall rat
tiers, he catches with his hands.
On his morning round for esres. Michael
Helseman of Curtice. O., reached Into a
hen's nest and touched an object that made
him Jump back quickly. A closer examuia
tion showed a big, spotted snake colled In
the nest.
Beating a hasty retreat, Helseman secured
a shotgun and on reaching the nest noticed
that the snake had swallowed a china nest
egg and was gradual!y working It down Its
throat. It was but the work of a moment
to blow off the head of the snake.
Helseman then recalled the fact that his
egg supply had dwindled recently and he
thinks that the snake, with perhaps Its
mate, had been making forays on the roost
for some time.
Eugene Carl, an Allentown (Pa) sign
painter, is laid up with twitching nerves ai
a result of a battle with a monster copper
head. He was walking across the meadow
at Dorney park to paint a sign, when he
heard a hissing noise and saw the reptile
colled to strike.
He fought the snake off as beiJt he could
by striking it with his paint brush and
kettle, but the reptile was as skillful as a
boxer, and finally reached him, but fortu
nately Its fangs were only onlyImbedded
in his trousers and did not strike the skin.
Carl's cries brought to his help Calvin
Nice, who killed the snake with a stick. It
was five and one-half feet long.
After thinking over the matter overnight,
Nyce went to the spot again and found the
snake's companion, a female, with thirty'
four young ones, which he quickly dls
patched.

Prof. Paul H. Grnmmana of Lincoln
Will Give Series of Talks School

ern German literature of the University
of Nebraska, who will give a course of
fifteen lectures on German mythology and
the poetry of the Wagner operas. The
lectures will be divided Into two periods,
the first being devoted to German mythol
ogy and the second to Wagnerian opera.
Prof. Grummann will also Introduce sev
eral of Ibsen's plays.
Tha general outline of the course ot
these lectures ia as follows:
For tha first hour, German superstitions,
Indo-European relations, the Germanic
tribes, religion and myth, Indo-European
gods, sun worship, Thor-Donar, Odln
Wotan, Lokl-Vulean-Hephalstos, Baldr
classical and Christian relatives. Germanic
goddesses classical parallels, the Eddas,
Voliispa, Yule and Chrlstman, Eaater and
Aurora, day and season myths, myth and

Parsifal.
The management of the course' of lec
tures Is In the hands of a committee f
Omaha High school teachers, consisting of
Misses Jeanette McDonald, Jessie Towns,
Abba Bowen and Zora Shields.
Ths publio will recall tha great popu
larity of Prof. Grummann last year, when
he gave his course at the library building
on ths modern German drama. These
lectures were the most popular of any
ever given at tha library building and
were of Interest to people of all classes
snd Interests.
Prof. Grummann appealed to ths schol
arly and literary classes, to those who are
fond of the drama and to those who are
Interested In the problems of the day as
represented In these dramas. It Is prob
able that his subjects for this year will
be equally popular and as ths lecture room
st the library building, will seat only 125
peopls It will be well to make early ar
rangements for attendance.
WHO PLAYED POKER
When He Had l.nat n few Thnnmntl
He Searched for the
Poller.
Michel. Aston of 3?9 East Fiftieth street
has worked as a barber for several yrars
and accumulated $2.1, says the New York
Times. He was working at Coney Island
last week, and finally derided h vtould buy
a diamond ring. 11 bought th diamond,
paying $150 for II. Then h mad th ac
quaintance of several young persons at ths
Island, and told them all about th money
he had saved.
One young man he met cultivated his
friendship more than the rest, and accord
ing to Astone, one night, took him Into his
confidence. According lo Astone's story,
he ssld:
"1 have a millionaire friend that lives at
the Hotel Woodstock In New York, and
he Is rraxy about playing poker. He can't
play poker at all, and simply loves to loss
because he likes the game. Now, I II tell
you what I'll do. You take some of my
money and go over there and pla:f with
him, and I'll pay you 25 per cent of all
you win. You Just can't alirlp winning. I
would play with him myself, but the last
time he and I played we had a row, so I
don't want to go near him for a while."
Astone spurned the offer to take his new
friend's money, but said he would draw
his own from the bank and give his friend
26 per cent of his winnings.
80. according to Astone. last Thursday
night he drew out $1,500 from his bank and
went to a hotel In West Forty-third street.
There he says he met the "millionaire" and
several other young fellows, who were sit
ting In the room smoking and drinking.
The game started at once, and Astone said
he rapidly lost his $1,500.
"Well, If that Isn't the funniest thing
that has happened to me In years," Astone
told the police the "millionaire" said. "That
Is the first time I have won any money for
a year. Now, 1 don't want the money, for
I have millions of my own, but I do hate t
to give back what 1 have won. Here, take
some of your money back and see If you
can win It all back."
Astone said he was so overjoyed at ths
prospect of getting another whack at ths
"millionaire" that he assured him he would
be back again and "perhaps then he would
win It all back."
Astone told the police that he could
hardly sleep Thursday night for thinking
of what he was going to do to the "mil
lionaire" the next night.
Friday night saw Astone, with $800 In his
hands, again at the "millionaire's" door,
so he told the police, and again by a most
unheard of. remarkable coincidence the
"millionaire" won again. Astone took his
diamond ring off, and lost that, and was
then ushered to the door and told to uomo
back "when I have struck a losing streak."
Astono got the police, and the police ar
rested a well-dressed man calling himself
W. 8. Smith, 36 years old. a clerk, living
at the Hotel Woodstock, and locked him up
on a charge of grand larceny.
