CHICAGO , March 4.-Wherit , nfttr pursu
ing nn erratic course over n narrow range ,
closed with n Bain of from Hc to Me over
Wednesday's nnal figures. Tradlm ; wns
again extremely limited , but the bulls were
favored the more by the stntlsllcnl news
nnd had * otnewhat the'bcst of the skirmish
Ing. Corn wns hcnvy nnd closed somcwlm
lower. Onta inndo no quot blo change , am
jirovlslons show general lueses.
Whcnt had another ilull tiny , the mnrkc
nt times ruling exceedingly slow , the range
ror the session being confined within a
rnnie , The market , although openln ;
where It left off yesterday , manifested som
weakness enrly , duo largely to the lowc
cables , both Kngllsh nml contlncnlnl , am
the deliveries In the northwest , wltlcl
wcro fnlrly gencroiiH , being about the siun
ns n wepk ago , but 157 ear * larger that
those of a year ago. There wns very little
Improvement In the Fpcculatlvc buslnefs
outside trade being almost t n standstill
ntirt with foreigners doing practically noth
ing nt the seaboard holders found little en
ronrngcment nnd liquidation and nhort sell
Ing resulted. The chief rally of the day
was on n rrixirt that Toledo had sent n bit
here for ZOO.COO bn. of wheat to go nil bj
rail. This looked encouraging nnd there
wa a momentary rally , but It was soon los
when It was found that the price bid wa
below the murkct. Uradstreet's report wa
the next matter to engage attention , nnd
JIH It showed a dccreiiKiof 3,775,000 bit. It
the world's stock , Including the reduction
of 1,783.000 Im. for the month on the Pnclllc
coast , the trndu conslduicd It a gocd ren
son for putting the price up , nnd procecdei
to do so. Hut nt the advance nn unllmltci
number of selling orders poured In nnd the
decline wan quicker thnn the advance. Ma >

off to CG % ( . ' , reacted to CtiTAfiCTc nnd off ngnli
to Wc. Trade continued dull during the
final hour , but n somewhat llrmer feeling
was evident nnd the prlco gradually climbed
Unck to GGTic , wlicro It closed.
Trading In corn was extremely quiet am
fluctuations narrow. The receipts were
ngnln heavy and had a depressing effect 01
prices , at ) had also the dullness In wheat
slay opened a shade lower nt from S0c
to 30',4c and closed steady at SCKViC.
Oats showed considerably more nctlvltj
than usual , the demand at times being
quite urgent , but no Improvement In prices
resulted. May opened at from 21c to 21'&c
fluctuated within n Uc margin and closet
at 21c hid.
Provisions were a distinct disappointment
The opening. Influenced by light hog re
ceipts , V.'IIB quite firm and considerable ad
vances were noted , but selling ordern were
so plentiful that the ndvnnce wns lost ant
prices nt the close were nt the lowest polnl
of the day , pork closing lOc lower , lard 7 ! c

There nro complaints at other points as well
B9 At Omaha that the consumption of eggs Is
not what might be- expected In view of prevail
ing low prices. Chicago Proluce [ > * : "Whether
It Is the extraordinarily large supply of fresh
eggs , or whatever the ranee , dealcra do not re
gard local consumptive demand ns l > elne near up
tor the- volume thnt tint cheapness of egg would
Bccm to warrant. Some dealers declare that 11-
cent eggs were no more freely taken than those
that brought 12 cents , hut they arc generally
unable to tell why. Lower quotallon should In
crease consumption. One denier thinks , the rea
son can be found In the fact , as he claims ,
thnt there nro Immense' quantities of mixed eggs
In the ninrkct , Ho asserted that ho knew oil In-
Blnncerf where retailers hail purchased cold stor
age eggs nt a very low price , and , nfter mixing

Iny. The market appeared 'to have cut away
lorn tin ! Influence of Ilio Cuban Imbroglio , The
; reater part of the business was for account of
ho professionals , but there was also a little
eaven of ovtmnlsslnn onlciu. Tlici temper ot the
Inanclal community was more cheerful than at
any lima flncu the Introduction uf the Cuban
itlllgvrcncy icsoluttons. London lent come up-
iort. nnd coveilnir by the traders wnu quite the
mler uf the day. There was n marked absence
if news having a legitimate bearing upon prices ,
mldo from the encouraging cxh.blts of February
TCK.I faming" . Including those of the fit Paul. The
ompany mentioned chows an lncr < nse of 1378,158.
'he market opened strong aid higher , and a
urthcr degrro of strength wns Impaited by re-
n urlnK cables cf London prices fur Americans
nd some buying of the International Fharro here ,
t has becumu the fabhlon with the traders tu
uaik tlmo upon I indon , owing to the absence
of outvido Intercut In the market , The upward
movement WUH checked for n brief Interval by
n uttnck on Ilurllnglon , which enused u drop of
! i per cent In that stock. The Felling wan again
ntlrlbuted to the unsatisfactory character cf the
anuary report , puhllnhed Monday. Oilier stocks
list sulvtanllal fractions In a few cases , but
he upward movement was soon resumed with
1'iuwcd vigor. General Klcctrlo was especially

CATTLE The receipts of cattle proved
to bo light today , only BOO head belnc re
ported , ns ngnlnst l.fiSS yesterday and 1.7S9
on Wednesday of last week. Yesterday's
Etonn , which covered most nil sections of
the state , may Imve been one cause of the
light receipts todny.
Among the offerings of cattle the proportion
tion of beef steers wns qulto large nnd the
quality ranged from fair 10 choice. With PO
few cattle In sight and with the prospect
of light receipts during the next few days
the buyers all seemed to be anxious for cat
tle. Then , too , the rei > ortB fram other mar
kets were encouraging nnd the result wns
an advance of 5rtlOc. Not only was the
market higher , but It wns more nutlve than
on most daya of late , and the offerings
changed hands readily , the yards being
soon cleared. Two bunches of corn fed
steers of very good quality , averaging 1,481
nnd 1571 pounds sold nt $1.10 , the highest
price pnld In several weeks. A good share
of the cattle eoM Inside the range $3.GO < iT

Cows and heifers were also In very light

against 2.C04 yesterday nnd 3,430 on Wednesday
of last week. In addition to the light receipts ,
provisions opened higher , and reports from
other markets were all encouraging. On top
of thcso bull features there wns a gocl local
demand , and the market opened active nnd
lOc higher. The maiket hail hardly opened be
fore everything was cold and the trade wns
over.
The range of prices wns { 3.8503.95 , but the
great bulk went lit J3.90JJ3.95 , us against $3.80 ®

market back , to where It was on February 18 ,

SHEEP There were no fresh receipts of sheep
and the market wns nlow and'dull. Reports from
across the wntcr Indicate that the light hlilp-
mcnts of export sheep for the past month have
caused an advance In the British markets. Sup
plies from Argentine have teen unusually large ,
nnd It therefore took the markets n long time
to show any advance. Prices nre now nearly ns
lilgrii as a year ngi > In London , while hero they
are tl per hundred lower than n year ago.

In district court , u bill of oxceptlons , net

Douglns against Cameron. Appeal from
Cednr county. Affirmed. Opinion by Com
missioner Irvine.
A died Intestate leaving surviving him
neither Issue nor father , mother , brother or
flstor. There wcro surviving four children
of a deceased brother , eight children of n
tleceiit-cd sister nnd three children of n de
ceased ( .laughter or such sister. Held , thnt
under our statute of descent the twelve
surviving iiuphcws nnd nieces took ench one-
twelfth part of the -Intestate' ! * land per
capita , and thnt the grand nephews nnd
grand nieces took nothing.
2. Such a case falls within the fifth sub
division of section 30. chapter 23 , compiled
statutes , and not within the third subdi
vision.
3. Inheritance per stlrpes tlocs not -ob
tain under our law except where ntllrma-
tlvely provided.
4. The ruin of Inheritance per stlrpes Is In
general applied only from , necessity ,
ns where the heirs nro of unequal degree
of kinship to the Intestate. Where they nrc
of cqunl degree they take ns principals ,
. It Is the object of our statute to cut
oft Inheritance per stlrpcs among collat
erals where nt any point beyond the chil
dren of brothers and sisters the surviving
kindred nre of equal degrees. In such
care those who claim through the nearest
ancestor take the estate to the exclusion of
those who claim under an ancestor more
remote.
Moore against Scott. Appeal from Huf-
falo county. Alllrmed. Opinion by Com
missioner Irvine.
One who hns nn Inducement to n Bile of
land In good faith states to the vendee
that reliable third persons had represented
the land to him ns being of a certain char
acter , and who at the same time states
that he has no personal knowledge In re
gard to the land , does not thereby adopt
such , reprcsentntlons as his own , and re-
clsslon cannot be had merely because they
prove false.
2. The statement that such third persons
are reliable , being merely the expression
of an opinion , Is Insulllclcnt to charge
the vendor In an action to rescind , at
least where ho honestly believed them re
liable when the statement was made.
3. The jurisdiction of equity to relieve
against mistakes Is In general confined to
cases where , because of such mistake , the
minds of the parties never met , and there
was therefore no contract , and to cases
where the contract made was not correctly
expressed by the 'Instrument evidencing It.
Relief cannot be given because of mis
apprehensions In regard to a collateral mat
ter , ns In regard to a fact Incidentally
affecting1 the value of the subject matter
of the contract , there being no deception
of wrongful concealment.
Tzschuck agnlnst Mead. Krror from Doug

Order of the circuit court of the United

the cause nnd not the question of jurisdic
tion only.
PJarrou against State. Error from Douglas
county. Alllrmed. Opinion by Judge Har
rison.
Evidence examined aridi held sufficient to
support the verdict.
2. It Is the duty of the trlnl Judge , par
ticularly In criminal actions , to Instruct
the jury ns to the rules of law governing
the disposition of the cause , whether he Is
requested to do so or not , and , If a charge
to a jury , by omission tq Instruct on cer
tain points , In effect withdraws from the
consideration of the jury nn essential Issue
of the cause ' It Is erroneous. Dolan against
State , -14 Nebraska , C43.
3. AVhcro there Is such an omission to
Instruct but It Is clear that the Jury hns
lormcii me rignt conclusion mm no preju
dice has resulted from the omission It Is
not error' which calls for a reversal of the
judgment.
4. An Instruction In this , a prosecution
for the crime of robbery , was objected to
by counsel on the ground that the In
struction wns erroneous In that It sub
mitted to the Jury the question of whether
the accused 'either alone or In company
with others" committed the acts alleged
In the complaint , for the reason that there
was no evidence that the defendant acted
alone nt any time or without the cooperation
ation of others lu the matters charged.
Held , that the testimony sustained the
Instructions given In the particular Indi
cated by the objection.
E. Where It Is urged as error that n
designated Instruction was not sudlclontly
explicit In Its statement of the law appli
cable to a certain portion of the Issues In
the case , and It appearo that no Instruc
tion wns propnred by the cotrfclalnlng
party and requested to be given In nn
effort to correct the alleged error , the ob
jection cnnnot be sustained.

2. Where a district court has properly
dismissed an appeal from a justice of the
peace such order of dismissal will not be
reversed merely because n bad reason was
assigned for the decision. Ix > nk against
Oallogly. 31 Nebraska , 853 , followed.

from Douglns county. Afllrmed , Opinion
by Judge Norval.

consider In connection with the other evi
dence ; adduced on the trlnl for the purpose
of determining whether the plaintiff H prop
erty was damaged by reason of the loca
tion and construction of the viaduct In the
street In front of said premises ,
2. The refusal of an Instruction must bo
cxccptcd to In the trial court In order to
lay the foundation for Us review In this
