Wheat Pit ,
CORN AVERAGED STRONG AND HIGHER

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.

Itadlcnl Chanic ClmrKctarlicd the Tone of
Wpoculatlon Yciitordny.
NBW 'YoitK , Aug. 4. 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

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.

OMAHA. LIVE STOCK. 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

HOGS But 0 fresh cars ot hogs were
received today , the lightest run since Christ
mas. Country shippers who sold hogs in
February at $8 mm better did not take
kindly to the $4 idea and concluded to wait
u while before shipping. One local house
wanted the few hogs here b.xd enough to
outbid everybody else , including both ship ,
pcrs and speculators , and paid prices any.

The popular price was f 1.75 for fair to gooO
hogs of all weights. Better than $5 was paid
for choice lights , and rough houvies sold ai

tno market generally opens , the big bulk
of the trading being at ft.75 , against W.iit

What the Government liulletln Says ot tha
Crop In Nebraska mul Iowa.
WASHINGTON , Aug. 4. [ Special to TUB
BEE. ] Fojlowluff Is from the bulletin Just
issued at the Department of Agriculture
showing , by counties , the condition of grow-
ng corn in certain states in which BEE
readers live :
Nebraska Phelps : Fair , but needs rnin
now. Furnas : Suffering badly and without
rain soon will bo a failure. Jefferson : Over
one-half of all the wheat and rye has boon
) lowed up and put to corn ; acreage
a therefocfli very high , needing more
rain. Kearrioy : Fair stand ; ton days late ;
needs rain to advance it. Saline : Doing
well ; very frco from weeds , with ample
rains it will be the largest crop for years.
Seward : Acreage increased on account of
wheat , fields beicg plowed up and planted to
corn ; condition lowered on account of un
favorable weather and lack of cultivation.
Doucl : Suffering from dry weather and hot
winds , but will stand it for a few days yot.
Douglas : Have never seen it look better ; in
the history of the country. Frontier : In
crease in acreage due to the largo amount of
sod corn planted and to winter wheat land
that has been planted to corn. Garueld :
Looking well ; Is very clean , and generally an
excellent stand ; has not been injured
by tile hot winds. Gospor : Very
fine on * the east side of the county ;
ftood growth ; somewhat damaged by
hot winds and drouth on the west. Holt :
Looks well ut present. McPherson : Early
drouth broken In time forcrop ; moro planted
than usual and condition nnc. Nance : A
Ptencral rain today insures un average crop.

weather of the past month 1ms helped it.

idly and the prospects are favorable for a
good crop ; the culture is good , the Holds
clean. Webster : Very thrifty ; a good stand
and fair tlio. Burt : In tine condition ;
larpo and clean. Hayes : Acreage largely
increased in the first place , and nearlv as
Vnuch more added by planting wheat ground ;
crop is looking line. Johnson : While
the season apparently has been good for

third time , which makes condition very un
even ; where first planting stands , condition
is extra lino. Lancaster : Very uneven ;
Some line and n great deal looking bad.

the ground. The crop will bo laid by after
July 1. Delaware : Senson thoflnest In many
years. Fay otto : Splendid weather for the
: rep , which is ubovn the average. Guthrie :

aflnocolor , and is growing fast. Howard :
Well advanced and clean. Buchanan : Con
dition never moro promising at this date.

past few days. Much had to bo re
planted on account of the poor sqed
used. Bremor : Bolng rapidly pushed

by and is pushing rapidly ahead under favor
able weather conditions. Taylor : Has
? ecn generally well worked. Some is late ,

Tliu TOIL Trade.
Alarmed by the rapid extension of the
use of Indian teas in Europe and the con
sequent decline of the demand for the
Chinese leaf , the Pokin authorities have
just iHsucd a proclamation a aiiiHt the
manufacture- what is sifrniflcantly
styled in the document as "lie" tea. The
proclamation points out that this bean-
dalous practice hast contributed moro
than anythinf else to bring about the
wane of the Chinese tea trade and it de
clares that the authorities are deter
mined to put a stop to it. People are
warned not to make any tea excepting
ot the genuine ton leaves and if any
person is discovered infringing thin
order ho will bo punished by transporta
tion for life a penalty which will bo
extended also to the Boiler and to the
buyer , its well us to all others who huvo
taken any part In the placing of adul
terated tea upon the market.

rode a dapple-gray horse. Ho appeared
to be a tail man , smooth face , large nohO
