GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Wheat Corn and Otts Crops Are
Scheduled to Advance
. in the Future.
SHORT SUPPLY IN EUROPE
OMAHA. Jan. 4. 1?15.
According to reports received from
nearly every country acroas the waters,
breadstuff supplies are short, and it be
hooves those nations to eccure available
wheat and flour, as well as com and
oats, no matter what the price may be.
These are the actual conditions now to be
seen. The avorage speculator was never
placed In a poaitlnn where he was en
abled to see ahead for at least a few
months so well as at present.
It Is only necessary to look backward
a few months to see the certainty on
the bull side of grain. The average pro
ducer of wheat In Kansas, as well as the
other states, has been quick to see that
it was suicidal to dlnpoea of the surplus
now held on the farms, as it will be only
a matter of time until the buying pres
sure will naturally force values higher.
It Is only a question of a short time
until buyers and sellers will strike a
plicae, which Is sure to favor the seller.
One of the best poeted authorities in
England snys that conditions in some of
the importing nations ara becoming
alarming because of the short supplies of
breadstuffs. The fart that mines have
been distributed through the waters
which were formerly open has tempor
arily blorkadml, the sea lanes. For a
time It has been an easy matter fer
Great Britain to take breadstuff to Its
shores, but it Is now said that more cau
tion Is beina; used and the pasnago of
vessels slower. A great hel to tho corn
market has teen the acta ot Canadian
railways in reducing the- rate on this
grain i cents between Minneapolis and all
points ln western Canada.
There, Is a better demand for oats on
export account and the price will prob
ably hold around present level if it does
not advance.

Chicago oRAiar Ari provisions
Feat a res of tho Tradlaa and Cloala
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Jan. 4.-For tho first time,
wheat today soareU above the high prlco
level that was made September 6 at the
most exciting crisis of the German' ad
vance on Paris.
On European buying that-seemed nearly
regardless of cost, wheat today touched
$1.34 a bushel for May delivery, as
against $1.32, which was the Beptember
6 record and until this morning had
been the topmost plnnacln of value since
the apex of the famous James A. Patten
"corner" May 26, 1W, when quotations
reached . XI. 35',. Closing prices today
were strong at gains of Sliic to 3V4c com
pared with Saturday night. Corn finished
1V4&1HC to lTc up, oats at a rise of
c to le and .provisions varying from
6o off to 12o advance.
Broadening out of the purchase of wheat
began at the very outset thla morning,
but it was not until during the last hour
of business that the trade bordered on the
sensational. Even then, there was no wild
flurry. Buying on the part of the general
public, however, aside from the urgent
foreign demand seemed at that time to
have gradually expanded beyond the
greatest vodlume heretofore attained 'on
this season's crop.
Ocean freight rates from Argentina so
high that it seemed doubtful whether
one-fourth of the contracts already made
to supply South American wheat to
Europe would ever be filled was the chief
basis of the sentiment favoring an ad
vance. The result was a total of export
sales here amuntlng to l.X),000 bushels
not counting large transactions elsewhere
In which Chicago houses did not partici
pate Meanwhile, country holders showed
no disposition to be in a hurry about
aelling, and throughout the west mills
were said to be giving signs of keen anx
iety about supplies
Strength of com and oats came In the
main from tha wheat bulge. The only
conspicuous seller of oats was a firm
prominent In tho export wheat trade. It
was surmised this firm might be more
??.!"-H7 '", "ht abroad than oats
for which vessel-room had been obtained.
Provisions were kept down by the large
Increase in the warehouse stocks of pork
and ribs and by the big receipts of hogs
Lard, however, reflected the upturn In
grain. ,

CATTLE Receipts were liberal this
morning, being larger than the eorre
spondlng dsy a year ago by a few hun
dred head. They were, however, smaller
than, a week ago by 1.700 head. The
QUMlrty on an average was very poor,
Uia yard being flliea with trash, whll
thero was a general acarcity of strictly
good kinds.
Desirable fat cattle were In very fair do
mand and market generally steady with
Inst week. The quality, however, waa ao
poor that prices do not show up well on
paper. The trade was reasonably active
and the offerings ot dealrgblo kinds gen
erally chanaed hands In fair season.
Trash and all inferior grade were a little
nara to unioaa. '
Cows and heifers were in large s)upply,
with the rnaillt that th trade was slow.
while prices were anywhere from weak
to as much aa 10a or mors lower. It was
lata before a clearance was effeoted.
Thero was a fair showing of stock cat
tle and feeders, and the demand was
quite brisk, fully steady prices being
maintained. The better grades In fact
sold around lOo higher than last woek,
but Inferior and common stockers were a
little slow.'

out Serious Disturbance.
TRADING UNDER RESTRICTIONS
LONDON. Jsn. 4. Tha London Stock
exchange reopened for business today
after having been closed : on account of
the war since July so. Severe restric
tions were placed upon trading In order
to prevent anything approaching panic
selling 'or the unloading of securltlss by
hostile holders.
The session opened with a round ot
ringing cheers and to tr strains of .the
national anthem, henrtlfly Ming by a
rather smaller attendance, than usual. A
number of British and French members
were absent on account of tho war, while
the exclusion of nllemt who were unable
to satisfy tho committee that they had
severed all connection with foreign coun
ters reduced somrwhat the foreign attendance.
Crisis SafelT Passed,
The single fact that business has been
resumed even on a limited scele and un
der rrotrlpUons Is taken to InJicato thst
the greatest crisis In' thojhuuory ef the
exchange has been safely negotiated
through tha combined efforts, of ths
tressury and tha stock exVhanft com
mittee. '
The house had been redecorated during
the prolonged recess, nnd today It pre
sented a cheerful appesrance. Several
English members appeared ,ln khaki
There was no shouting of bids across the
house and business was on a strictly cash
basis. The committee decided to allow
dealings only between tha hours of It and

.pleased again to have a roof over their
meads after their wretched experiences
during tho last five months.
Tradlasi la Restricted.
The 'general opinion that tho restric
tions to trading would curtail business
to a considerable' extent was borne out
during the first half hour. Not a alngln
trade occurred In Americans, and only
a few of th securities appeared. The
