0 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : -SuiDAT , OCTOBER 10 , 189-1. AND FINANCIAL t * Smaller Eoceipta and Better Export Demand * . Bent Wheat Up , CORN AND OATS CLOSED UNCHANGED Aflrr Bomo Selling lij tlio Hulls Nrv Vork Jtcporti nil lo Iufins Orders frnm the Continent Infilled More Spirit Into Trade , CHICAGO , Oct. 18-Dettcr cables , larger clearances , smaller receipts and better ex port demand ucnt wheat up ? ic today , but larg-e offerings at tlie close weakened the market , and May finished U < 3 higher. Corn nnd oats closed practically unchanged , nnd provisions nllh slight losses , Wheat opened Vic over yesterday's closing price. The ca- blcgrnma were more encouraging than for Homo time past. The Cincinnati Price Cur rent says the market for winter wheat was 61111 restricted and the feeding or It main tained. After some selling against calls had cauMcd n slight shading ot the first advance , New York Infused n little more spirit Into the bulls by wiring that there were some foreign buying orders there from the conti nent , upon which Information another \ic \ per bu. was mldeil to the grain with which the market opened. 1'rlmary market re ceipts were smaller than on uny previous day , nml the Atlantic pjrt clearances were larger. December whetit opened nt 52Uc , Bold ppnrlngly at G2c , and utter reacting to raiie It rose to u&c. ! ! The presence of Wheat In the. New York clearances was fiomcivliat disappointing- bulls and cooled their ardor for awhile. The price began to weaken again , nnd was down again to from l % c to Sc about 11:30 : a. m. Although n. good deal of Belling- out by scalpers caused comparative weakness , now nnd then the market made higher reactions after each de cline. The death of the ameer of Afghan istan , damage to the Argentine wheat crop confirmed , and a repetition cf the early reports - ports from New York of a good demand from the continent were the later Influences Which put December up to We. Offerings Increased near the close and the market declined to a moderate extent , December finishing- CS'.ic. Corn averaged firmer. It started with borne trading nt the price It stopped ut yes terday , nnd n little nt Uc per bu. higher. The- better fpi'llnir wns due In part to the llrmneas of wheat. The dally reports ot dis appointing results from husklngs were con tinued , and those came today from Illinois , Iowa and Ohio In greater number than be fore. The principal bearish factor was snld to bo the growing Indifference of the east ern consumers , who do not appear to view the light stocks with alarm. The day's fluctuations for May delivery were confined Jvlthln)3'.4c ) nnd 4 ! > % c , the Intes't trading being nt 49o to 43Hc , or 1-lCc lower than It closed yesterday. Trading In oats was quiet nnd confined al most entirely to scalpers and local parties. A slightly Urmer feeling existed In sym pathy with corn. May started at 32lc. sold os low as 32V4c , ns high ns 32'Jc , and again was selling from 32J&C to 32c , closing at from 3Z o to 32Hc , Liberal receipts of hogs caused heaviness In the rnnrkct. hut very little trading re sulted. Fluctuations were narrow , as a re sult of a general disinclination to do busi ness. The leaders refrained from leading , and their followers stood still. Prices started with a decline of 5c In pork , lard and ribs , nnd that represented at the close the result of the day's business In lard and tlbs , pork losing another 2Hc.

IB.-Kor some time It has been argued that the New York cotton market WDUlil make a stand at Cc for middling upland , but tod.iy , undvr the great pressure brought to bear on the contract market , middling uplands Bold at C E-Kc. Even at this point business could nut KII on. mid some sales as low as 5o are re- poited to have been made. Liverpool cotton mar kets nre selling off In keeping with the decline here and are now at a loxver level than ever 1 > ef re In the history of the English cotton trade. While ppwulatiVf mipnoit Is still withheld from the market , it Is observed that the I.iincashlro cplnnera are beginning lo accumulate supplies of cotton , and In addition lo this , advices from the Him Hi Indicate that the movement from the At lantic slates Is belnpr retarded by the demand flcim the southern mills located In the Atlantic region. Advices nlco reach here to the effect that merchants In the south arc advising their constituents lo limp on to their cotton In prefer- eneu t sending II to the market at present low prices. The short Interest at this point Is enor mous , nnd the price Is so low It Is nigued that nny further declines must be very gradual , while the maiket Is left subject to violent npurls on the appearance nt any bullish news to cause the shorts ti > cover , NEW OHLEANS.

THUnSDAY , Oct. 18. Receipts of cattle have- fallen off over 2,000 icad so far this week , as compared with ast , and the decrease In sheep amounts to over 10,000 head. In hogs there has been nn ncreasc of about -1,500 head. The cattle market was Indifferently sup- illeJ both as lo quantity nnd quality , th.2 r - celpts being several hundred lighter than jn Wednesday , and something like 2,000 Ighter than n week ago today. There was no material change In the trade. On account of the continued shortage In desirable beef cattle , the demand for this claes of stock wns active , enough to firm prices up a shade on these grades. It was Impossible , how ever , to get over steady prices for the gen eral run of steers. Cow stuff wns in rather better demand than usual , and with no Improvement In the receipts , prices averaged stronger all around. Venl calves were also In active re quest at firm prices. The market for bulls , stags and rough stock generally was not ciuoiably changed , Store life ami strength characterized the- fltocker nnd feeder trade today. There wns more of a demand and less of a supply. Prices accordingly averaged up strong on nil suitable offerings. Representative sales ; DIUJSSED BHEK No. Av. Pr. No. Av , Tr. No. Av.

Receipts were less than expected , and there wns a return of confidence. Choice beeves continued scnree nnd show a tendency to BO higher. They would no doubt at once advance , but for the abundance of poorer kinds. Today's arrlv.nls were estimated nt 15.WO head , of which nliout 6,000 head were natives. 5.000csUrns nnd 2.000 Tcxans , Natives were Quoted at from SI ta $0.15 , with most of the sales tit from tl.73 to $2.110 for cows , heifers nnd bulls nml nt from $4 ( o J5.25 for Fleers.

The greater part of the supply chnnsed hands nt from 14.8(1 ( to S3 , Many common lots were an low as from J3.85 to $3.75 and pigs were not readily dis posed oC nt from $2 to $2.33. In sheep the fresh arrivals wore estimated at 12,000 head , which wns comparatively small , but there were about 18.000 head of Hlicep and lambs left over , FO that the supply was close to SO.fiOO.
