6 Till ? OMAJIA DAILY BEE : SATURDAY , AUGUST 5 , 1803 , COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL It WM an Unciujr , Feverish Day in the Wheat Pit , CORN AVERAGED STRONG AND HIGHER There \T i No llnln Whera Moit Needed nd No Prnipectt of Any , the Slinrt * In Corn to Ha Alurmid. CIIICAOO , Aug. 4. It wa an uneasy , fever- J h day In the wheat pit. Trailing was 'saint. Prices ran up and down several times within a range of Jfc , and left oft about MC lower than on the day before. Corn averaged strong nnil closed MO higher. Pro visions wore In the main flrm , but dull. The Walker failure cnmo too Into to bo n factor. , but It hat boon more or lost dltcounted lor tome flmo. Tlio opening for September was from Jf@ > i'c lower than yesterday's close , then advanced } jc , declined % c , rallied 1J e , declined 1 > < c , and closed steady. The weaker opening was duo to the bank falluro at St. Paul In the morning papers , some cholera scnro and rumors of trouble among mercan tile houses here. Cables , too , were lower , which helped to weaken the market. But the largo clearances and good buying orders had the otTcct of changing the decline and prices were advanced , then eased off again on more bank failures In the northwest. Operators seemed Inclined to buy , but the disquieting rumors hnd a bad off.ect. TradIng - Ing was only of a local character. There was no rain whore most needed , and oo prospect of any , making the shorts in corn alarmed at the outlook for the crop. Initial transactions were at a trifle advance , but It was not long under the urgent demand and limited offerings buforo the prices sold up < o for September and lo for May , the Utter delivery being the strongest on the list and the premium is still widening. The prlco hold lirm for a while , eased % c , ral lied % c , changed some , and at the close Sep tember had trained from % c to i c , and May from % o to } { a. The cash situation is rather a drawback , as the tight money is alTccting the shipping interest , and August did not advance in proportion to the other futures. Oats averaged higher , advanced from J c to % c , and closed at from J o to J o below the top. There was a fair trade. The strength came mostly from corn. Provision trading was con lined almost en tirely to those who arc interested in the manufacture of products. The syndicate , as Armour & Co. , Swift & Co. , and Morris & Co. are called , did what was necessary to keep the market sober and within narrow fluctuations. Compared with last night the close showed pork down 15c and lard 5c , while riba are 5c up. Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat , 180 cars ; corn , 'JSi ( cars ; oats , 214 cars ; hogs , 6,000 head. Freights dull at Jfc for wheat and lo for corn to Buffalo and 3 > o for wheat and 3c for corn to Kingston. The leading futures ranged as follows Cnsh quotations were as follows : Viam Dull , easy.

There was n radical change In the tone of speculation on the ex change today. l-Jarly prices yelldod to } ( per cent , chiefly on account of the bank troubles In St. Paul and the scarcity of cur rency , which oxcltcd fears among the timid operators as to the f uturo of the money mar ket. The dccltno added materially to the short interest and for this reason probably the bulls offered little opposition to the raid. After prices had yielded largo buying orders were * placed und in loss time than it takes to toll it. the decline was recovered and the market generally was on a higher level thau last night's closing. ' During the uftci-noou another .reaction en- cued , but toward the close speculation assumed a positively buoyant tone and there was a small-sized bear panic. The sorts , they wanted to cover , found that locks wore not to bo had readily and , in their hnsto to retrieve themselves , they bid ) rice up on oanh other. The belief that rrlvali ot gold from Europe- next week will 'ollevo ' the money piessuro and thatPresi- out Cleveland's message will have a re assuring effect in financial nnd commercial Irclcs had much lo uo with the sharp upward turn. The advance generally ivas from J to 7 per cont. General Electric rose 5 per cent to Gl j . Chicago Gas , 6 per cent to 52 # ; North west ern , 0 % per cent , to lKJf ) : Hock Island , percent , to 01 ' ; Sugar , 5J per cent to ; St. Paul , 5'g per cent to 6SV ; Lake Shora , 6 per cent to 10 ; Pullman , 5 per cent to 14T ; Cotton Oil , 4K l > er cent to 31 ; Louis ville & NushviUo , 4 % nor cent to 57. % ; Man hattan , 4J per cent to 112 } ; Jersey Cen tral , 4 per cent to 92 ; Lackawanna , 4 uer cent to lill ; Burlington , 4 per cent to 80 , nnd estern Union , 8 % per cent to 783tf. Just prior to the close General Electrio and Northwestern reacted lj.f to 1 percent , but the general market lott off strong at or near the top prices of the day and week. A marked exception was Union Pacific which shows > t not loss for the day of about a point on the talk of a receivership. The directors , it is said , will meet on Tuesday next , when the affairs of tbo company will bo thoroughly discussed. The Post says : Today's prices advanced rapidly nnd they advanced because they dis counted next week's now supplies of money. Of this there can bo no question. At least $1,000,000 gold will be turned into the city banks by Wednesday next week and fully $10.000,000 national bank circulation will bo added to it from the government presses. Presumably prices went up today through the use of call money , the buyers reckoning that next week will rellovo the time loan market. If this is the result of the so-called "ex pansion of currency , " it is such only because of undue contraction previously brought about through foolish hoarders and deliber ate mischidfuiakers. The owners of the currency in safe deposit vaults are likely to learn too late of the extent to which they not only embarrassed current business but throw away opportunities. The probability is that those stores of hoarded currency will bo released far moro suddenly than they were locked up and that before the lapse of many weeks the money market will bo fairly easy. But this will , of course , depend on the action of the extra session , and it may not moan a quick return of business prosperity.

MAKK12T3. Itccclpto of All Sort * Light , with Prices Much Higher on Everything. FIIIUAY , Aug. 4. It has been several months since the re ceipts of live stock were as light as they were today. Only 42 cars in all were re ceived. So far this week , compared with last , however , there has been an increase of nearly 4,000 cattle and 1,400 sheep , while the hog supply has fallen nearly 10,000 short of last week's litturesV' ' With meager pfteSrlngs of cattle and a better"domana from'Hho ' dressed beef men , desirable beef,1 * steers sold lOo to 15c hotter than Thursday. Local men had it r , all their own way , as speculators ard taking no chances this weather. They bought fair to very good 1,100 to 1,283-lb. , buovcs at from $3.50 to $4.45. Common and inferior stock was hardly wanted at any price. Very fair 1,030 to 1,250- Ib. western grassors'sold down around $2.85 ana $2.90. or nearly 'n dollar lower than the same cattle sold for , a year ago. Today's activity and strength grew out of the very 'Ight receipts and , not any improvement in the demand or the general situation. The cow market may have been a Httlo firmer on the mure desirable grades , but common stuff solaivory badly. Inferior to choice cows and luiifcrS'sold.at from $1.25 to $2.50 , includlnga big string of good western cows at $2.20. A lot of western calves broXight $3.15 , a fair ' price ; very few native calves were offered'for sale. Poor to prime bulls sold at from $1 to $3 , or about steady prices. There was a better feeling in feeders owing to the light fresh supply and very fair country demand. Sales to the country were mostly at firmer figures , but out of ih-st hands about steady. Good to choice feeders are quotable at $2.70 @ 3.00 ; fair to good at $2.50@2.70 , and cona tion stuff at $2.00@2.50. Uepresentativo sales : DHKS3ED I1F.EF. No. Av. Pr. No. .Av.
