Oaaah Fataree.
A bullish sentiment prevailed In the wheat
market aa a result of the continued dry
weather in the west, and while the market
declined a trifle during the early houra,
baying pressure forced almoot a 4o advanoa
in mat article.
The trade on the whole today was not
very active and was confined mostly to the
wheat and corn markets.
There were very few of the traders who
are willing to risk the abort side of the
market as long as the present acut. crop
situation exlits, and while the marked may
reeaive temporary setbacks, tne general
belief Is that prices Will eventually be much
nigner.
May wheat opened irm tt a ho aavane
over yeeterday'a close; July wheat closed
practically unchanged, wntte tne neptemper
ruled a fraction lower.
All the corn out one advanced, nut tna
biggest gain waa made la the May article.
which closed lo higher, wnne juiy corn
advanced 1, and the September article
oloeed lc , higher.
The oats market was quiet. Mid while
May oata ruled a fraction higher at the
dose, tha July and September options closed
unchanged.

wild trading in wheat developed soon
after th atart, the apeeulatlve crowd being
greatly wrought up by report indicating
that 79 per cent of the winter crop In the
eouthern half -of Nebraska had been so
badly damage by drought: that the fields
were being ploughed over and sown te oats
ana barley. Kansaa reports told also of a
vere damage and seemed to Imply that un-
leaa rain fell soon the yield in many sections
might be almost a total failure. The effect
of such sdvlees was undoubtedly heightened
by the ract that tne reoent enforcement
of an embargo In Argentina had led North
America as tha only aourc of breadstuff
supply readily available for Europe. In thla
connection the high premiums being paid
ror ,cn wheat wer taaen aa pointini
clearly to the urgency of tha demand and
tha emallnese of stocks at consuming point.
Striking news of a big defeat for the
Turks In Palestine acted at one time aa
aomethlng ef a check en the wheat bulls
aa the dlaster te the Moaelems. suagested
a renewed likelihood of the opening of the
Pardanellee. However, wires soon
soaring again and showed no further Im
portant reaction until realising of profit
became free In the last hour and mad th
pit nervous. .
Com ascended with wheat. All deliveries
went to new hleh price levels for thls ee
wma crop. IteftMpte here were notably
small and rural settling meager, Oata
came up to within a fraction of the tiptop
season values scored last November.
Provisions advanced eharply on parebasea
credited to commission housee and packers,
snd Impelled by the upward awing of the
hog market and o f grain. Lard especially
waa In demand, and like wheat and corn
smashed some of tb existing high price
records.

radic movement. In special atocks, mainly
at ht.h levels, today's market waa a coun
terpart or tlie dull and Irregular seeeion
of the previous day. Trading was again
restricted almost wholly to tha professional
elements, whloh brought and aold according
to its caprices or th. sxigencles of ths hour.
Banking Interest, were somewhat appre
hensive during the morning on the sudden
suspension of the market for exchange on
the Teutonic center, but wheat condition
waa overcome later when rates on Berlin
and Vienna stiffened substantially. Declara
tion of martial law In Spain gave rise to
further misgivings regarding tha general,
European altuatlon.
Over tt - per cent of the total of &70,too
sharea took place In the forenoon, the last
three hours recording an almoet ateady di
minution of operations to the accompani
ment of tower quotations, in which rails
yielded with the general list.
Next to United Ststes Steel which ranged
between 114 apd 114H, closing at 114,
a net loss of ii ot m point, the most active
stocks of the day included two newly listed
issues Blrwlatre Oil and Mldvale Hteel.
Sinclair, made an extreme gain ot 4 points
to tilt, but Mldale'a maximum of 61
waa a gain of only to 1 point over Its
final quotation on the "curb."
Wilson Packing made the new nigh reocrd
of 13 on another rise of t point, and
Ohio Oa. also aought a higher level on
Its advance to 182. with the aubscrlptlon
"right.'' at4. but both failed to hold
at top levels. Other epeclaltlee and utilities
shaded on small offerings and metals, ship
pings and minor rails wer. lower by 1 to z
points..
Motor and Leather Issues, were early fea
tures ot marked strength, but declined ab
ruptly In the laat half hour with Sugar.
and some of th. secondary equipment and
supply Issues, Including Petroleume.
General news embraced an analyals of
February Import, and exports, the latter
item aggregating 467.ff83,406, an Increase
of almoat 66,000,OUO over tha aame month
of mo.
Th. only noteworthy rail statment for

Sheriff Avers Charges
Of Prisoners Are Absurd
' Sheriff Clark characterized as "in
sidious" and "contemptible" the at
tack made upon him through the
medium of a one Bert Osborn, a
prisoner, in a statement regarding
alleged bad conditions in the jail.
Osborn, who served a sixty-day sen
tence, was supposed to have written a
statement that prisoners in thp jail
were not properly fed and that the
food was insufficient and in some
cases spoiled, causing sickness among
the inmates.
"Utterly absurd," asserted the sher
iff. "Absolutely untrue. If this Osborn
went to bed hungry a single night,
it was his own fault. He got as
much to eat as the other prisoners
and none Of them have complained.
It's silly when he says he was put 'in
the hole' in solitary confinement for
thirteen days.
"This fellow made himself so ob
noxious to the other prisoners that
they kicked him out of their cells
and we had to put him in a cell by
himself. The cell was no darker than
any other, unless Osborn put some
thing over the windows.
"I buy the meat fresh every day
from one of the biggest and most
reputable stores in Omaha. I pay
a good price for it and it is good,
clean meat. This store is just as in
censed as I am over this fake about
tainted meat.
"Dropping notes out of the jail
window is a physical impossibility.
No notes could be thrown out of a
window and there would be no rea
son to throw any .out. Any 'notes
Ofjborn wrote evidently got into the
hands of the 'right' person at the
'right' time." ,
Civic League Meeting to
Have a Patriotic Air
The annual meeting of the Omaha
Civic league, to be held Friday night
at 7:30 at the Commercial club rooms,
will probably be more of a patriotic
demonstration than a civic meeting.
Secretary Stanley Rosewater of the
league, when he attended the patriotic -meeting
at . the Commercial club at
noon, invited the representatives of
all the organizations present there to
come to the Civic league meeting
Friday night, as he said he believed
every civic organization should make
national patriotism a part of its life
and activity.
