[ Special Telegram to Vnr. line. ] The wheat market won dull and tertd.y to-day , for new crop futures , and flrra wil liitrlicr for May and Juno. This was the last business day of the month , and the day bcforo n holldny. Considerable curiosity was felt as io what \vas going to bo done with 8,300,000 bushels of contract wheat in stcro here , but diligent Inquiry ainonc these who nro best posted In such matters failed to dovclopo ospccinl nTVousness. It Is gen erally believed that most of the winter wheat , amounting to something like 125,000 bushier , will bo delivered nut and that it will o Into the hands of scattered holders. Elevator people nru evincing a desire to holt ) on to EprliiR wheat. DiiKur sarcastically remarks that ho learns that all the wheat sold for Muy , Juno and July , will bo delivered next Wednesday , some 45,000,000 bushels in nil , nnd that ho is irclngto have bo.vs with basnets to pick up the receipts that will bo thrown about. Ho thinks If ho could got wheat for nothing 'ho might eomo out oven. The vlslblo sup ply shows a. decrcaso of 1M3.000 bushels ; making the total In sight : WMO,595 ( bushels , against : ,4 ( > IMX ( ) bushels last year , and 47- : ilil,4TO bushels two years ago. This show ing produced an under-current of bullish feeling in all the markets , and prices wcro well maintained. The northwest exhibited the least strength , comparatively speaking. The cash markets In the west mid at tide water were steady nnd a fair degree of activity is reported , though advices \-ero re ceived from New York that exporters were selling freely against recent purchases. Cables wore steady , but private advices in dicated inoro or less heaviness abroad ; on account , it is claimed , of a pressure of con signed American Hour. The flour trnilo Just for a moment Is commonly quoted as dull , though a great many sales of largo lots arc reported from n variety of places. Sales arc made nt concessions , as a rule , It seems. Minnesota mills have been pressing their products at u sacnllco recently. By fur the most important item in the llour'trudo was the announcement that CO.OOO barrels of Hour are to bo shipped from Milwaukee through to Now York. Exports of wheat and Hour from the Atlantic ports , last week , were equivalent to about 1,000,000 bushels. Eight loads were reported to-day for export.- Locally , there is a. good Inquiry for wheat and onecargo of 4S.OUO bushels was worked for lake shipment. * The weather gossip hnd something to do with the regula tion of speculutivcs values , to-day. It Is cold and rainy througn the greater part of the country , west of the Mississippi , though some sections of tbo northwest uro still com plaining about high winds and dry weather. The crop reports from most points in the south and southwest are favorable. There was considerable activy noticeable in May and Juno wheat to-day. May opened at 81j c , advanced to 81Jf o and closed at 81-&C. June opened at SlJ c , sold up to 8Jc and closed nt fc2.J c. The initial quotation for July was 70j < o : there wore sales nt 79o and an advance to TOJf T'.l c. The marlcct worked as low as 70J e , but it closed at 70HC. Dealings were mainly at and around 7l79Vc. During the larger part of the session business was at no tlmo heavy. Corn was considerably llrninr , llrst in sym pathy with wheat and the weather , which was expected to adversely affect the grad ing. Later a very heavy decrease of ii.iiSS- ,000 bushels in the visible supply alarmed tlio aborts uiul started a demand from them which caused an improvement of about J c per bushel , nearly all of which was retained until tha close. Receipts nt Liverpool wcro reported for tnc week at 481,000 bushels. The export clearances from the Atlantic coast on Saturday were only moderate and from New Orleans only 10,000 bushels cleared on Saturday for Liverpool. July corn was in good request and liquidation in May was much less urgent than during the closing days of the proceeding week. Ko- coipts , however , continue heavy at. this point , in view of which tlio steadily decreas ing vlslblo supply is considered all the more significant. Oats were in good request and } @lc higher , despite the heavy receipts whicn ex ceeded the estimates by fourteen cars.and included 224 cars contract grades. There was also n small Increase In the visible sup ply , which was unimportant. Speculative trading was largely in the way of transfer ring May holdings into tlio two following months and with less of the first-named coin ing out. Oats for delivery next month solil up tq 22 (0 ( , under good buying orders. After n Jlrm opening , Juno Improved to 23e , and July was unsettled nt 22H@23 c. Local stocks are linger by about hail a million busiiols than was the entire visible supply n year mo. On the other hand It was believed by many the counj-ry hnd about sold out. Car lots to go to store were close to May , selling nt 22o early , for No. 13 ; and most of the business was by sample. Provisions were quiet. Parties Interested in May wcro engaged in covering their con tracts or changing over the same to July , but In the line of new business there was but little doing. The market was strongly permeated with the holiday fever , and there was a general indisposition to put out or make trades. Considerable May property. however , was provided for , nnd the demand for July for the purpose of transfer was fuifllcicnt to widen tlio Into difference. At the adjournment , July was quoted over May l2J ! < ; u on pork ; lOo on lard , and 20c on short rlba. In pork , the day's fluctuations extended over n range of 15jei7KOi ( ' " lard of i ! } @Gc , mul in short ribs of lOc. CHICAGO iavE STOCK. . CHICAGO. April 29. [ Special Telegram to TUB HUB. ] CATTI.K There was a demand for about all the cattle , good , bad and indif ferent , and prices were steady to a shade stronger than on Friday , li ht handy stoora being the most in demand and generally sell ing a simile higher. There was some demand for big steers for the London market , hut the order was limited and nuiy bo the only one on the market this wcok. Of nil the lirltlsli markets London Is the only one that can utilize big cuttle ; both Glasgow and Liver pool want light to medium weights. Only a few loads of Texans wcro on sale , some making satisfactory prices. Cow stock was in good demand and steady. There was nothing doing in stockcrs and feeders. The closing of the shipping division to-morrow had u good deal to do with the activity am ! strength , most of the shippers bcliij. anxious to got morn than their or dlnary mi in bo r to make up foi tlio loss of ono day.

The principal difference between to-day's market nnd that of Saturday was this : To- any they bought tlio cuttle readily wliilo on Saturuuy It was hard work to get the buyers to take them. The prices actually paid for cattle were very little different. Tlio desir- ublo light und medium weight cattle wcro in the best request and sold at strong prices. Heavy cattle moved more slowly and when on the coarsish order they were almost un saleable , no ono appearing to want them. The falling off iu the export demand for big cattle IB largely responsible for this state of trade. Uutchess' stock was scarce and com manded strong prices. Some choice western heifers brought $2.20 and the bulk of the cows sold at § 2.iO@2.'JO. ( Tlio feeder trade was steady and the holders of such cattle found no Ulfllculty in disposing of them. A. loud of good westerns broughtJ.15 nnd some little C20-lb cuttle § 2.1)0. ) Sotuo stock calves sold at $3.10. The buyers were not long in buying all the hogs here , but they bought them a shade to 5o lower. Nearly everything sold at $3. 15 nnd some of the hogs which brought that price would not have brought any inoro on Saturday while other loads would have sold at1.50. . Two very choice loiuls sold as high as ft. 00 , which was us high us anything brought on Sunday. _ Sheoj ) . Thcro was only ono loud hero nnd It wns very desirable.

HER HUSBAND'S ALLEGED SLAYER Curtis' DnuclitcrTcstlAfesAirnltm the Guilty Pair Ilio Fourth \Vnrd Contest Other Capital City Items. LINCOLN UIWEAU or inn OMAHA. UBS , 1023 P STIIKET , LINCOLN. April 30. The preliminary hearing of the alleged murderers of Bob Woods was resumed before - fore Judge Stewart this afternoon nt 4 o'clock. Though wcarysouio nnd tedious , the interest continued unabated until its close , nnd the court room was packed during the concluding hours. The testimony throughout tended to conilrm the Investiga tion and findings of the coroner's Jury. ThocrlmlnaMntlmacy , said to have existed between Curtis and Mrs. Woods , was clearly established. Mrs. Alexander , n daughter of Curtis' , testified that she had caught them Indulging in criminal relations. Nothing developed , however , that Implicated her In conniving with Curtis or Taylor for the mur der of her husband , though it is was proven that she hnd confessed n higher regard for Curtis than for Woods , with whom she had passed nearly twenty-five years In married llfo. Hut the evidence , all In nilwas deemed sufllclent to hold the trio to answer to the district court upon the charges ns indicated in the verdict of the coroner's Jury. Taylor stands continued for murder in the llrst de gree , and Curtis and Mrs. Woods as accessories series before the fact. They will bo tried at the May term of the district court , which convenes on the ( ith day of the month. The temper of the people scorns to have quieted down and unless the old adage , "There Is n calm bcforo a storm , " receives another verification , Ihcro is no doubt but that thu law will bo permit ted to tuko Its course. Taylor and Curtis re posed in peace tit the state pen over Sunday. During tlio hearing to-day , a rope was oc casionally flushed in sight by some of the colored citizens of the city , but only when they thought that the prisoners would catch sight of it. They kept their backs to the crowd , though , throughout the arguments , but otherwise- seemed indifferent to all that was going on. They nro both hard looking cases. MM. Woods. , tries to appear stoical , but it can be seen that she Is deeply worried. Taylor and Curtis will doubtless receive the punishment they richly deserve. As to Mrs. \ \ oods. thcro seems , to bo some doubt as to her guilt. The rope act this afternoon was simply a repitition of what occurred iu the court room Saturday morning before ad journment. Arguments of counsel for the state and prisoners closed the tlrst act in the trial drama. The evidence was practically submitted at the close of the hearing on hist Saturday morning. Prohibition in Iowa. "I have Just returned from an extended visit in Iowa. " remarked Attorney J. M. Hamilton to Tin : BEB representative this morninLTami I have no hesitation in pro nouncing prohibition in' that stuto u total failure. It is claimed by prohibitionists of the state , everywhere , that the law.is enforced , but 1 emphatically say It Is not. I had ti Teed chance to learn tlio facts in Uurlington ind Fort Madison , nnd improved it. I was able to get drinks whenever I wanted them , ind did not have to learn the ropes the boys tall : about. In ono place I called for beer , jot it back "you moan ginger nle , " and on assenting had the pleasuroof , quailing as line lager beer as I over drank. I want to say , also , that they have a'proceeduro in law there that I never saw Sn uriyother state. It is peculiar to Iowa alone. I refer to ther equity proceedings in injunction cases. An injunction is secured against tlio building wlicro liquor has boon sold , and against the owner of the building. Tlio effect of the pr9- cecdlng is to shut the buildintr for one year against the selling of liquor there , and also against the opening of the building for any imrposo whatever unless the owner gives a licuvy bond. In most cases this is not done , and thu buildings uro closed and stand empty. I saw a number of such places. I also saw n place neuinst wlilch on injunction hud been inudo perma nent while I was there. It was not ever a block from the court room. Immediately after the decision of the Judge 1 saw a stream of people entering this same building , und out of curiosity to sco what was going on I followed the crowd. Imagine my sur- iinse to find the saloon running the same as if no injunction hud been issued. No atten tion \vus paid to the order of the court and the violation of the law was not noticed or punished. It is my opinion that a lurgo portion tion of lowans who voted for prohibition uro not only willing , but anxious , to have thn pto go back to the high license plan. " The fourth Wnril Contest. The Fourth ward election contest cuso was lioforu the district court to-day. Attorneys Ames and Ilnll appeared for Mr. Hamilton , and Lamb. Rickctts & Wilson for Mr. Coopor. The case for the plaintiff , in brief , was as stated by Tin ; BEI : , viz : Tlio regular municipal election at which Cooper was elected was n valid one , and that ho was therefore the leirally elected councilman in place of Graham , resigned. The respondent dcniod that thcro was n vacancy ut the time Cooper claims to have been elected , or , nt least , that there was no vacancy at the tlmo the uctico of the election was made , nnd therefore thcro could not have been u valid election at that time. Ho also states that bcforo the papers Iu this in - Junction had peon filed , ho had prepared and executed h s bond , all preliminaries had been gone through with mid ho was already a member of the city council , and that the injunction simply tibknd him not to do what ho had already done. Affidavits to this effect were submitted. Plaintiff's attorneys nsked leave to lilo ulllduvits to the contrary. The cuso was argued this afternoon. Scott , and Murphy . tlio It. & M. In answer to the complaint of Messrs. Murphy and Scott , ot Utica. the Chicago , Hurliugton & Qulucy railroad company says : Defendant denies all of the allegations of complainants , except that it owns and oper ates the line of railroad mentioned through Utica and other places ; that at tlio lown there uro already located , built and in opera tion three cruin elevators , separata and dis tinct , and that tlio respondent use * certain right-of-way and depot grounds at the station , but denies U' uno and owner ship of the amount of urou UH , right of way nnd side track stated. Further answering. , tlie respondent says that the depot ground owned by the com pany at the station is 1.1)50 ) feet long by 250 feet wide ; that Is thn length of the ground and no inoro ; that there uro located on the ground three elevators' nnd the Block yards ; that theru is no place or'room ' at suid station for tlio erection and mulhtainunco of another SHROEDER & DEAN , GRAIN , Provisions i Stocks Basement First National Bank , 305 South mill Street , - Onialiii SPRING VEHICLES Upud oqull/ well to rough country or fl ty driven WUljtli 7oa bitt Btlatuotlon clcvntor without Interfering with the noccs- ( iry business of the company nt the station ; .hat the erection of another clovntor thcro would not only Interfere with the business of the cotnp.iny but the Interests nnd bust- toss of the public.
