For the Tresont Yenr.
The week Just closed contained one legal
holiday and j ot the transactions in real es
tate business have been numerous and n largo
amount of Omaha dirt lias changed hands. It
must bo admitted that the business of the
week past falls considerably short of the cor
responding period in 18b7 , and this Is chiclly
duo to the unsettled state ot piospectivo city
improvements for ISbS The "bull-headed'
ness'1 of the city council and the general
belief that it will bo stopped in its ignorant
and ummUori7ctl ( oxpcndltui es , together w 1th
the feeling of insecurity that exists at pres
ent in the minds of the taxpajers concerning
the futuio actions of the councilmanic boodle
gang , makes the monejed men very careful
and consen ntivo.
If a citm-n desitos to purchase
Eomo unimproved pioperty it i
natural that ho invests his money , believing -
lioving that the property vill bo much moio
valuable in the uear futuie. Hut when the
capitalists of this uiiil other cities , who are
willing to invest in city property believe that
the city council is in thohniuls of unprincipled
grading contractois and jobbers of all de
scriptions , then investments are very care
fully made. Capital Is timid and oven the
rumor of jobbery caust s it to seek seclusion
For tills reason alone is the icalty business
dcpicsscd. His to bo hoped that within a
week , possibly days , the present state of af
fairs will bo thoroughly changed and confi
dence thereby increased. The sales' of real

CHICAGO I'ltonUOE MAItKET.
CIIICAOO , Feb. 25 [ Special Telegram to
the HIE , ] The government weather bureau
predicted n cold wave to follow last night's
ruin uud wheat truck knew that meant a
Hood of crop damage reports to follow , with
the condition of the winter wheat crop n very
Important factor in determining the course
of prices This prediction was enough of It
self to strengthen the courage of believers In
higher prices. Moreover , cables were firm
and better in tone , though no advance In
prices was quoted , and exports wcro fair. A
largo decrease in the "visible" was expected
and Hutchinson wasbujlng wheat in largo
quantities. All these influences combined ,
however , \\cro only sufllciunt to advance
prices } { c from the opening. There was some
buIng for outside account , but It was not
largo enough to Indicate any such "taking
hold" by the country as the bulls uro looking1
for to take the market out of the control of
one man. The market was strong throughout
the session and closed at the highest point.
May wheat opened at bOJ c which was j e
htghorthan vesterdao's elosc sold down to
8 < > Xc early , then advanced to bO ? < c and a little -
tlo later to 80c , then foil to 80Xo again and
hung between that price and 8l > Xo for a long
time , advancing slowly before ttio close to
M'xfc ' , which was the closing pi ice. Juno
wheat opened at bOJ c , sold ntfeOoand 81e
and closed nominally at Sic. It Is generally
expected hero that the visible supply state
ment Monday will show a decrease of about
1,000,00 * ) bushels.
Tuulo in the corn pit was quite active at
times , but it was largely local , although
there weio some buying orders from the out
side. Hutchinson both bought and sold corn.
The closing prices were but llltlo changed
fiom the oiuming ones , but in the meantime
there had been some quick llucUuitions
caused by the necessities of the local traders
in their efforts to straighten out their turns-
actions on the last da ) ' of the w cek. The i o-
ceipts were but 291 curs whcte 3.13 had
been expected , and this wiis a stiengthoning
feature eai 1 > . May corn opened at 51c and
woiked up to 51 * c during the early trading ,
then back below the opening price , and , on
the knowledge of an estimate of 4-15 cars for
Monday , touching 31c. There was a reaction
later , however , and 51Xo' was bid at the
close. Juno corn opened at SlJ e , sold at
SIX aud down to 50J < c' and closed at 51x' < o
bid. .
Speculative trade in oats was quiet , and
llucUuitions were confined within a range of
lfc. The nun kot ruled a. little firmer in
sjmpathy with other grains , but the advance
established was very slight May oats
opened at JilUr , sold up to 81@Jl.J < jC and
dow n to Ul , > GKU fc , which was jcsteidaj's
closing price , and closed at Ill e. .luno oats
opened iASlf@Slc , sold down to Ul e and
closed at 31fc. .
In provisions xquito n strong feeling was
displajed. Trading w'as generally a little
slow and without special fcatuic , jet the
market was well supported and the lluctua-
tlons extended only over a moderate lange ,
Based on last night's closing , pork at ad'
Journmcnt showed an advance of fKji/T'/rfe. / '
Short ribs were quotablv unchanged , while
laril rested 2 } < jC easier. Short ribs uioi e than
divided with "pork the speculative intcicst
shown. For May , the favoiito deliveiy ,
irark sold at $ i : nj < f ( < M4 10 , lui d at $7.77
and short ribs ut .
Pol k for the same month closed at $14 ( 5 ,
lard at 7.80 bid and short i ibs at s > 7 in bid.
Nearer dellvciics than May were quiet , with
transactions contlned to the tiansfcr of con
tracts. Changes of February and March
poilc wcio made to May at 17 } ( 20c , of Feb
