The bulla In wheat have st last made their claim good that receipts of that grain In western markets were to fsll off sharply. Kecelts last week were only ll,47i.,on) bushels, compared with 13.n73.ort. bushels the week befi.re and 7.W3,0O bushels for the corresponding period a )'r ago. Shipments from western mar kets last week ere lO.Mt.O') bushels, or 1,000,000 bushels larger than the same time last year. The rectlpts from Janiitry 1 to date, at western points, were 2Ku,3SS.0O0 bushels, while for the corresponding time in 1!1 there were 202,M,ooo bushels. It is predicted by men who are well posted on conditions that there will be a further falling off In the movement of wheat, a those holding this grain advance the opinion that higher prices will ccrtnlnly be seen, even In case the war should cease within the next few months. Corn receipts weie larger last week at 12.14,",000 bushels at western points, com pared with 4.9W.0U) bushels last year. The price of corn, as well aa tho movement of that grain, will depend largely on weather conditions. Sales of corn for export have Increased during the last week, and It Is expected that with larger available supplies th'5 movement to the old world will be larger. Oats continue to move outward Ir. large quantities, as the shipments from we.it arn point Inst week were 6.C75,ono bushels, v!ilio tho receipts were CHlfi.OUO bushels. From August 1 western shipments were 130,.21,000 bushels, against lOl.OuO.OOO bush sis a year ajro i-rovisiotis were a little more active last week, and when the big run of hogs ni me western markets la considered the situation may be called strong In the provision pit. The trade Is looking for more heavy hogs and the price to reign at about present level for a few weeks, aud thoy also look for an Improved cash trade expansion and a broador Interest in the futures.

As compared with last week there was a falling off of over 1.2U0 head, and a decrease of 2,100 bead as com pared with two weeks ago. It la very evident that the sharp decline In prices last week Induced shippers to hold back shipments for the time being, The qual ity of the cattle was extremely poor, the arrivals consisting largely of trash or one kind and another. Beef steers of all kinds were in vary light aupply, with desirable killers al most entirely wanting. There was a fair demand and the market was steady all around. This would apply equally well to beet steers, cows and heifers. Feeders were In very good demand and anything desirable along that lino was safely strong to 10c higher, with other grades at le&st steady.

The local run was only moderate, estimates at about 7.OU0 head against 12.8M a week ago and 4,7W on the correxpondlng day a year ago. Hulk of tho offerings consisted of Idaho wheat field grades, and a fair sprinkling of fed westerns from, Ne liiaxka and Iowa was also a feature. Quality as a rule waa only fair, though there were a few loads of pretty good lambs on sale. There waa nothing doing In killers until well along toward the neon hour, and then trade waa extremely sluggish, resulting In a very late clear ance. The packers' first bids were (th lower than last Friday's market. In the end the bulk of the lamb sales showed a decline anywhere from 844)r. There were scarcely enough aged sheep on hand to make a market, though what ewes were on Bale were In poor demand at prices generally weak to lOulftc lower, and possibly more In aorne canes. Some corn-fed lambs sold up to $7.W. What 111 tie trade took place during the first hours of the forenoon was on feed ing account, there being apparently an aillvo demand for feeding lambs. The early transactions Included sales at $7.30 tvv.70, the latter figur bolng the highest price for feeding lambs this season.

OMAIIA, Dec. 7.-T the Wltor of The Bee: Inasmuch as I am about to leave Omaha, and as my work has not been generally understood, should Ilka to say a few words to friends and to th public In general. When I first came to Omaha there was an Associated Charities In name, but not In fact. Buch being the case, I had to correct many falsa Impressions and also to allay antagonism which had Justly arisen. For the first year efforts to bring the publlo to tha right point of view oc cupied much time. I preferred to do this by Interesting small groups of people at a time, who wera Interested in one and another family, and again by explaining things to people Individually. Th moat important thing seemed to be to put in strong foundaMons and to lay a solid basis for future action.. Titer bad been plenty of platform speaking: in connection with th organisation, and number of out-of-town speaker , had poured in ideas and suggestions. But what seemed to be needed most waa solid work and a systematic basis for It. This meant that th vaat volume of dsUli "which passed through our offic In th course of a year must be reduced t law and ordor. To reduce things to system was a diffi cult task because the work of a charities office Is about the hardest kind of work to systematize. 1 have not been able to pleas everyone who haa referred case of want. Had I tried to do so I should haw met with the fata of th man In Aesop's fable of "The Man, the Doy and the Ass." I could only do what I thought was right with th resources I had to work with. My task was that of making a patch on Inch in dlanpeter cover a rent two inches in diameter. I was trying to do th Impossible. Mr. Spring born of Cleveland, O., who spoke at our slat conference last April, a man who Is aa expert in social work, stated that for the population we had to deal with in our two cities the Associated Charities should have a budget of $20,000. We bad been endeavoring to do the work with about half of that amount Further, there can be no real Asoclated Charities without aa advisory committee. It Is part of the necessary machinery. It should fill the function of Interpreter! between the office and the public. And, j secondly, it should be responsible for Just decisions In problematic rases. I estab lished such a committee and It baa been runnlug successfully for two years. W hav had an average attendance of twelve to fifteen regularly one a week. We hava reached a point where th different organlzatlona understand and appreciate ach other and enjoy friendliness. But we have not yet begun to do that for which tha committee waa Intended. We had but brought ourselves into position to do good work. We bad done but little more than to get our root Into the ground. I believe that every charitable organi sation and every Institution should have a specific work. Sometimes of necessity there Is an overlapping, but in the main they should have different functions and the work of each should be co-ordinated. Institutions such aa th hospitals, Child Saving Institute, City Mission, Old Peo ple's Home, etc., are static In the system of social work, just aa th brain and liver and heart in the human body. The Visit ing Nurse association, th Juvenile court and the Associated Charities are the cir culatory system and should be constantly in communication with ana connect up the work of the different institutions. If the work of any organisation or institu tion la weakened the whole , system Is impaired and the city suffers, I believe that ay stem in charity work is absolutely essential. In order to have sys tem In charity work It ia necessary to keep records. Just a a lawyer or , physician or a university or a school board keeps records of their respective clientage. These are not open to the public. No one ha access to them except the workers In the office, or those who wlsh to see them for the purpose of legit imate Inquiry. Workers in an Associated Charities office change once In a while and much valuabto information is lost unlets it is recorded in a permanent form. 7 Stcsk for Sab An oman a corporation In active busi ness for twenty years offers fur sale fifty sbarss guaranteed seven per tut preferred stock redeemed from form owners. Nn agent. Will sell dlrscL aV 187 Care ot Be. Without such records there Is a continual beginning over and over again, which retard progress. Further, the record Is a necessary protection to th worker who cannot possibly remember the fact ot from 260 to 600 families which we handle) in the course of a montn and who ha to meet from time to time Inqulrlea from numeroua Interested person or organisa tion who want to know th fact and just what w hav done to meet the need of a certain family. I wish Omaha could see .thing from a) eclal point of view. There la a strong Individualistic spirit her which empha sixes "I." rmthPT than "we." and which can see thliiga only one at a time and not collectively In their proper relation ship. There are a number of physicians who will swear hy Richard Cabot, but; few of them have caught hi point of view or seem to undorstand the relations between social service and the art of healing. Crowds will flock to hear Jane Addams and vigorously applaud her ac complishments. Numbers of these earn people ijo not believe in organised charity. They do not teem to know that Jan Addams la one of th hoard of directors of the United Charities of Chicago, Nor do they know that Hull House is one of the chief co-operative agencies with the branch office of the United Charities of that district. Number of public speakers along social line have visited Omaha during th last few year. Dr. Charles R. Henderson. Rabbi ' Wise, Dr. Catherine Davis. Mists Julia Lathrop, Dean Srumner and many others. The publlo have crowded to hear, them and hare received their Ideas with. enthusiasm. These men and women all stand for defferentlatlon and co-ordlna tlon In charitable and philanthropic work. When this city Is so much on the map commercially and so splendidly up t6 date along the line of business endeavor surely Its social enterprises should ba correspondingly up to date. I sincerely hop that th public Will continue to support th Associated Char ities as they hav done In the past. hope they will keep in closer touch with what i being don In other cities. - t hope they will team mora and more the value of workers who ar trained la social work,' and will more and mors de mand training as a requisite even as the publlo demands training of men and women In the medical, the legal, they educational world. And I hope that when, they secure their trained workers, those who spend all their time In the practice) of their special work, the men and women) who have the responsibility of financing and of giving their moral backing to suoh work In hospitals, in philanthropic institutions and other social enterprise will learn to give valuation to their judg ment. As I shall not hav time to visit tha many personal friends t have made sine I have been In Omaha, and the man friends who have come back and forth tu the office, as well as many who by their kind co-operation have enabled us to do for the unfortunate what we could not otherwise have done, I want to take thej opportunity to say good-bye and to thanlc everyone for their kindness I also wish 'to thank in publlo Mrs. Freda Tlmme and Mr. Anna Bourn whx ara still attached to the office of tha Associated. Charities. They have quietly and unassumingly done a great deal of hard and often disagreeable work for th city. They hav bee out visiting In rain and shine, in extremes pf heat and cold, often w hen they were I tired out. They have shown unusual loyalty and faithful, ness during all the ups and downs of tha organization for the last three or four years, and while their ntme seldom ap pear In print, and vjhll they have no desJr that they ahould do so, yet I think their work shoud receive this publl recognition.
