THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : THURSDAY , SEPTEMBER 5 , 1889. THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS , Nothing of Special Interest In the Whont Pit. PRICE FLUCTUATIONS NARROW. Corn VnliiRH Ailvnuuo on Proo Cov ering by bliorts t'rovUlons n lilttto UiiHcttlcdCattle Uusi * miss Slow HOKA Fnlr. CHICAGO puonuon MVRRRTS. , CHICAGO , Sept. 4. [ Special Telegram to TUB BRR.I The wheat market wus not especially Intorcstmg to-day and price fluct uations were within u narrow range. Trndo was light and news was boarhh In its tenor , yet this mnrlcot was not Influenced to any great extent by statistics on commercial in formation. Hutchmson wits the greatest buyer. Ho took all the Dcceinbar whoit that was offered at 78o during the early part of the session and sold all that the crowd cared to offer at 70o. Later ho withdrew from the field as a seller and under the In- llucnco of liberal buying ordorn from Now York , Milwaukee and for local account , the market strengthened. Cables ranoJ from bttroly steady to decidedly wealr , . Dunn bad sick cables from halt a dozen points In England and on tbo continent , bringing soiling ardors , and In two instances ordering a sale of wheat bought for ahlo- ment Now York was bearish and kept slug ging western commission houses with bulle tins to the effect that wheat lately arriving tbcro was nil going into storo. There was n report nfloat that twenty. live boat loads hud boon worked In Now York , but this was not confirmed. The movement In ttio northwest Is increasing considerably und the market tboro is not particularly strong. It it rainIng - Ing throughout Minnesota to-day , hon-over , und Bnowing further west , whllo Nebraska , Dakota and northwestern lown are throat- cncd with frost. To what extent this weather may affect farmers' deliveries remains change to bo sedn. It is certainly not calculated to increase them or uccelorato the movement. The movement throughout tbo winter wheat districts is rather on the decrease. December who.it opened at 7lc ) , and held for u couple of hours between 78ff@7d.Jfb low and 7i ) , o high. Trade was llcht und operations without es pecial significance. The announcement that to-morrow's estimate was for only 103 cars started buying , and thereafter the market was flrin ut sonio Improvement. December advanced to 79c , and closed at 79p8@71l c. September wus weaker than deferred deliv eries. This delivery ranged at 77 ? c at tbe opening , down to 7 , ' c , up to 77-'iSc ' , which was the close. May opened at SSo , ranged nt 82J < @ 83 c , and closed nt SUJ c. As com pared with yesterday , September is } lower , December t-10u higher und May higher. In tbu cash wheat market business was slack. Local speculative senti ; ment is becoming once more decidedly favor able to the bear side. Tbo corn market was active and prices ad vanced on frco covering of shorts , caused by a temperature of 23 degrees reported as pre vailing at Fort Washnkle and a consequent fear of Us spreading into tbo corn belt to- nieht. Later it was reported , but not con firmed , that it was snowing iu St. Joseph , Mo. Export clearances were only moderate , but advancing ocann freight and scarcity of r * . vessel room was held to be responsible for I the restricted movement. One circumstance which prevented a further advance than seemed likely to occur was the free selling of September corn by a prominent operator who for some time previous has been a persistent buyer. Receivers were also frco sellers of September against purchasers of cash No. 3. October opened ut 3'JJVc , which was a trifle higher than it closed yes terday , aud witb Intermediate fluctuations it rose to 34 e and closed at that. Oats were firmer , wilh "s'CgJi'o advance scored. Tbo seaboard markets wore ro- portcd a trifle hlghur , the weather was threatening , and with reported probabilities of frost In occasional uarts of the west und sonic strength in corn , there was less pressure to soil oats. September improved } { a to 19 c , und May was in fair laver in figures around -3c. Inspected receipts were less than the recent average , and withdraw als from store were largo. No. 3 regular sold > o better at 19c , for No. 2 white Sep tember 31Mo was paid , and No. 'J October touched 21Ko. In the provision pit the situation was a little unsettled. Tlio Octobar pork deal again attracted attention , but us the mys tery surrounding it has boon removed by I Hutchmson's avowed connection , traders ' were inclined to give it us little notice us possible. The "Old Man , " however , kept a vigilant watch on the market and showed no disposition to change bis position. Prices for the manipulated article were also made to average higher than yesterday's closing , whllo January pork , lard and short ribs sold lowor. Outside of October pork trade was depressed early by tbo reeelut of hogs and rod cod prices prevailing for the same , und during u good share of the day the fooling was quite bearish. Toward ad journment Increased strength was developed oped by good general buying and at the close January pork and October and Jan uary short ribs wore quoted 2c higher than yesterday's last prices. L'lrd closed at a de cline of 7J o for September , 5o for October and 2 > i'o for January. CHICAGO lilVK STOCK. CHICAGO , Sept. 4.

Tuo undertone was firm , however , and prices began on upward movement again before tbo end of tbe hour , aud at noon very material advances were made. Tbe market wa more restricted than for the past few days und Northern Paoitlcs ftud Grangers monopolized speculative inter cst In the list , the remainder being quiet to dull. Northern Pacific preferred opened nt 78K nnd suffered a sudden drop In the first few hilnutos' trading to 7(5J ( . This was felt 'in the goncrnt hit nnd most stocks retired to rrnnil fractions under the opening prlcas in early dealings.

To-dhy's cattle mnrkot was very dull , the lotnand ocliig llcht nnd the buyers Ui differ ent. A few good nutlvo beeves sold nt steady prices , quite n number going nt $1.00 nnd > vcr. The buyers remained in the exchange > ulldlng n good slmro of the time , nnd they vould not take the trouble to oven loolt at ho western cattlo. The offerings of butchers' ers1 were large , but there was no demand1 : and hardly trading enouah to cstnbllsh > rlccs. A packer remarked that ho would not buy n hoof , but if ho wanted any cows ho would try to buy them lowor. Only n few > dds and ends , strays , etc. , changed hands. Desirable native feeders nro held at nbout iteady prices , but tbo buyers were inclined o bid a little lower ou stockcrs and western 'ecdors. The trade on this class of rattle was slow as well us on other kinds. A few native feeders wont nt $ -.80@i.UO ! nnd some stockers at $3.42 1 1(1 19. A few light hogs sold early to the shippers nt nbout steady prices , that is largely nt $3.85 and as high as (3,00. The shipping trade also took a few heavy boss nt nbout yester day's ' prices. The packers started out de manding n concession of lOc from yesterday's nriccs und they succeeded in obtaining It. The trade was slow and suitors were not In clined to part with their holdings readily at the prices offered. The morning passed witb very little business being transacted. At mid-day there were about thirty loads unsold , some of them us line loads of heavy bogs us ono need ask for und for which only $ . ) .no was offered. At the tlmo of closing there were nine loads unsold , salesmen refusing to accept the prices. There were n few sheep received which sold at steady prices. Receipt ; ) .
