10- T1TE OMAHA DAILY BEE; SATURDAY, FEBItUAHY 22, 1002. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Bearish Sentiment FreTaila and the Market Ooei Lower. GRAIN HAt A SLOW, MONOTONOUS DAY Wkcit Coodltloo Ckif Little aad Cora mm Oiti Close Lower Pro I Grata Wtakirii. CinCAOO, Feb. a. Grain had another alow, monotonous day today. Moat of the llgh. trading waa evening up In prepara tion for the, holiday on 'change tomorrow, but the bearish sentiment, especially In corn, eventually turned the pit weak and May wheat oloeed o lower. May corn tjHo lower and May oate Ho off. Provi sion cloaed unchanged to 60 higher. Wheat conditions were little changed. Foreign newa waa allghtly bullish and do mestic the reverse. The closing up deals started the market a trine lower, but so tame waa speculation that fluctuations the first part of the session were hardly no ticeable. There was little interest In the market and the pit was almost without a feature. Cables were about steady, Argen tine shipment were much reduced from Isst year and northwestern receipts were larger and expected to be larger for some time owing to line elevators shipping In to their terminals. The prevailing .senti ment was to anil for a moderate break, but the experience of short sellers In both corn and wheat for the last few days held the feeling In check to some extent. Iher still holda out the depressing ab sence of outside business. Eventually the southwestern markets began turning weak, the corn waa affected bearlshiy and wheat turned the scale and slipped downward. When the bearish feeling was well mani fested In wheat bulls had a pretty hard time of It supporting the market. May, which opened a shade higher to VaVo lower at 78H5'78c, haggled for a long Um, then declined to THo and closed weak. Ho lower, at 77Vi7c One of the early bear ish Influences was the advice that yester day's export sajes were for Manitoba wheat. Caeh business today waa only a trifle better. Local receipt were 13 oars, 1 of contract grade; Minneapolis and Du luth reported 606 oara making a total for the three point of 617 oars, against 28 lest week. This day last year was a holi day. Primary receipts were 626,000 bu. Seaboard clearances In wheat and flour equalled S9UW0 bu. Argentine shipments were 6M.0U0 bu., compared to 476,009 bu. last week and 1,082,000 bu. last year. The sea board reported 13 loads taken for export. There waa more Interest today In corn than In wheat. Bearish news was In the majority and sentiment was early all on the selling side. Corn -fought declines stubbornly, however. In a way to pusxle the trade. Cables were steady, a Uttle higher than yesterday, and London re ported a light yield promised for Argen tine. Southwestern markets had light re ceipts, but persistently sent In bearish re ports. There were reports of acceptances from several quarters, mostly for small lots, but conservative houses repeatedly de nied that the country was offering more freely. St. Louis, however, broke sharply and sold under Chicago the first time in a long period. The bright weather had added Influence and prices here broke. May, which had hung steadily around Slc, de clined to 60c and closed quiet. H0 lower, at 60-e. Receipt were 103 cars. Oats were dull and uninteresting. Trade was exceedingly light and the depression was due largely to lack of support. As for some time past this market followed corn like a faithful servant. May closed weak at its lowest figure. Ho down, at tl'tc Receipts were 121 cars. Provisions had a good tone In contrast with the grain weakness. . The produce market was strong and a fair demand from commission houses, together with some scalping short covering in pork, held prices for a small advance. Options fluctuated very narrowly. May pork closed oc higher at 115. 72, May lard unchanged at 9.40 and May ribs 2c up at 38. 4ix&.474. Estimated receipts for tomorrow: "W heat, 15 cars; com, 130 cars; oats, 103 cars; hogs, 23.0W head. The leading futures ranged as follows! Articles.) Open. Hlgh.l Low. I Close.jTee'y.

CONSUMPTIVt DEMAND IS STILL HEAVY Perishable Gaad Advaaee aad Jab blag and Hardware Trade la Geed Fallaree Are Fewer. NEW YORK, Feb. 21, R. O. Dun Cc's Weekly Review of Trad tomorrow will say: Along the Atlantic coast business waa temporarily checked by the storm and some Interior points also suffered from un favorable weather, but consumptive de mand gives no evidence of abatement. Prices of perishable goods advanced sharply and the whole range of staple commodities tended UDward. Jobhlnr trade In anrinf lines of wearing apparel is of ample propor tions ana an neavy Hardware ana proauct of iron feel the pressure In that Industry. Prospects are most encouraging as to the labor situation. Railway earnings thus far reported for February show a decrease of but 2.6 per cent from last year's figures, which Is fully explained by weather- condi tions, while compared with 1900 there is an Increase of 9.8 per cent. Bank exchanges for the week at leading cities outside New York show a gain of lilt ner cent over last year's, while the loss at New York Is but 6.8 per cent from the total In 1801. which is more than accounted for by a decrease In the activity on the stock market. w nile oy no means Inflated beyond the point warranted by urgent purchasers, prices of pig iron have mad decided ad vancements, despite the ODoosltion of lead ing Interests. More Imports are reported, but foreign markets are also advancing, now that there Is less prospect of American competition because of the unprecedented home demand. Railway supplies and struc tural material are still the most eagerly sought of finished steel products. Record breaking building permits Indicate the busi ness that will be done by structural mills. The presence of numerous buyers In the Boston footwear market has not yet pro duced the desired volume of business. There seems to be almost a deadlock owing to the indisposition or manufacturers to make desired concessions and the unwillingness of purchasers to offer a full list of prices. The hide market Is weak and dull with the quality of Chicago receipt detenorlat Ing. Following the advance In print cloths to 3 there has been -an equivalent gain In many divisions of the cotton goods market. Exporters are bidding for China, although header now refuse to accept business at the terms they offered early In the month. Woolen and worsted fabric for fall have received less attention, but sale are still fully up to tne average. Farm staple are remarkably well main tained at the recent advance In quotations. Cotton added a small fraction to It price ana ruiea quiet during tne weeg at tne highest position of the crop year. Stock market operations were only of fair else and price changes small until Thurs day, when a severe break occurred on the announcement that the attorney general would proceed against the Northern Securi ties company. Much time must now Inter vene before the legal status of the concern Is decided. Liabilities of commercial failure thu far reported for February aggregate 36,697,881, of which 33,404,627 were In manufacturing, 32,892,142 in trading and 3401,112 In other commercial lines. Failures for the week number 250 In the United State, against 262 last year and 31 In Canada, against 39 last year. WEEKLY CLEARING HOVSB TABLB. ' the Associated Baaks. NSW YORK Feb. 21.

Feb. 21.-The action of the stock market this morning demonstrated pretty conclusively that speculative senti ment had overcome the shock caused by an unexpected announcement of the proceed ings against the Northern Securities com pany. Stocks held on margin and by timid holder had apparently been sold out yes terday and with the forced liquidation completed there was very little need for supporting order In the market this morn ing. 1 It was generally supposed that stocks bought yesterday for support had been un loaded on the rally as Insider gained con fidence that no serious break In prices was Impending. At the opening the market was heavy and by the second hour the selling had fallen to such small proportions that the market was practically stagnant. At the same time there were points of resist ance, and a few stock gained additional strength as the day progressed and led a substantial rally, which placed prices quite generally above last night's close. The Is suance of the bank statement seemed to be the turning point. The cssh Item was practically unchanged. Instead of the ex pected decrease of over 11,000,000, and the restriction of the loan expansion to less than 86.000,000 reassured the uneasy senti ment that credit resource were being taken up at too headlong a pace. The call money rate eased off to 3 per cent under the show ing of the bank statement and the reduced requirements for speculative purposes. Th cessation of forced liquidation and th de velopment of strength In a number of stocks drove the shorts to cover. A report that J. P. Morgan had gone to Washington to confer with President Roosevelt gave room for traders' comfort. The Colorado A Southern stocks became very strong at the last on a volume of dealings unprecedented for those stocks. Their gains reached 3 point or better. Good dividend prospects were alleged as the reason for the advance. Chicago, Indianapolis A Louisville also rose 3 and the preferred on reported divi dend prospects. Amalgamated copper was erratic rising at one time over a point, but closing practically unchanged. Manhattan also seemed to hold Its full gain of 1. American Snuff rose 6 and the preferred 2. i-orthwest ret overed 4 of yesterday's loss. United States Rubber stock were strong. Outside of these the striking gain were In less prominent stocks. Renewed strength In the exchange market corroborated The expectation that more gold will be exported next week. Bonds were rather dull snd Irregular. Total sales, par value, 32,385.000. The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: Stocks were easier today, except Americans, which opened weak, rallied on support by the Morgan Interests, see-sawed after New York s opening and closed between the best and the worst. Traders here are surprised that Attorney General Knox' action failed to precipitate a bigger fall, but the sugges tion Is made that the big break Is only de ferred, as publlo confidence is shattered. Rio tlntos sold at 46 and copper was steady. Paris Is still Inquiring for gold in the open market. The following srs tns closing prloa en the New York Stock exchange: Atchison 75 So.

BRADSTREET" WEEKLY RKVIEW. aerially Good Report Cosa (rosa Jobbers of tbo West. NEW YORK. Feb. 21. Bradstree'fg to morrow will say: Midwinter weather conditions have ruled throughout a large area, with the natural effect of checking mercantile operations and hampering the movement of general mer chandise and of the product of Industry. Country produce, particularly eggs, butter snd cheese, have continued their upward flight the highest prices for three years being reached In the first named, while the cereals have remained quite steady, due to large better export Inquiry for wheat, off setting th natural growth of bearishness Induced by the culmination of the late rise. Specially good reports come from the Job bers of the. west and northwest, but It Is to be noted that eastern dry goods dealers have booked a large business on cotton goods, limited only by sellers' unwillingness to commit themselves heavily, and ad vanced prices. - Spot cotton Is again stronger, despite the heavy movement. The facta at hand now seem to beer out the estimates of 1,600,000 bales, or about last year's yield, and the feeling Is growing that It will all be needed If present con sumptive demand continues. Woolen goods continue active, despite the strikes In some large mills. Demand for woolen dress goods Is large, plain fabrics being heavily sold ahead. Heavy overcoatings for fall wear are well sold ahead and suitings are being booked well. Iron and steel are active, strong or ad vancing. Despite all conservatism pig Iron prices tend up. The Bale of 108,000 tons at Valley furnaces to the leading Interests at 816 put the price of -the third quarter's out put beyond peradventure. Compared with a year ago steel billets, which are selling at 330, or 32 above steel rail prices, show a gain of 60 per cent over last yesr. Pig Iron, on the contrary, has only Increased 10 per cent and the feeling Is that buying by smaller mills will precipitate an advance. Structural Iron mills are sold ahead, but piste mills ar well up with orders. Wheat, Including flour, exports for the week aggregate 3,626,638 bnahels, against 8,125,416 last week and 8,424.302 In this week last year. Wheat exports from July 1, 1901, to date (thirty-four weeks) aggregate 176,- 931.K93 Dusneis, against izs.uid.jiw last season.

Hobblck , Other buyers , Total 2,001 8.297 917 cattl,h, There was only a light run of cattle here today, and a the demand con tinued In fairly good Bhane the market was steady to strong all around. Owing to the limited supply It did not take long for practically everything In tne yards to change hands. There were comparatively few steers In the receipts this morning, and while some ot tne buyers were anxious for cattle oth ers did not take hold with much life, and a rather uneven market resulted. Some sellers were calling the market active and stronger, while others thought It was a little slow. As a general thing, though, the prices paid were Just about steady with yesterday on the general run of cat tle, while those that were good enough to sell from 36.75 up were It anything a little stronger. The demand for the better grades of cows was In good shape and the market could be quoted steady to strong and ac tive. The medium grades and canners, however, did not show so much change, but still it was noticeable that buyers bought them more freely than they did the first of .the week, although there ha not been much of any change In the prices paid. Owing to the limited offerings prac tically everything In the yards was out of first hands in good season. There was not enough change In prices paid for bulls, veal calves and stags to be worthy of mention. Anything good sold freely, wnne common Kinds were a little neglected. There were only a few stockers and feed ers In the yards today and as the demand from tne country nas been sumcient to take each day's arrival at good, strong prices the market today was fully steady with yesterday and values did not ease off the way they generally de at the cloae of the week. Tne better grade of cattle sold freely, but still even the commoner grade were In much better demand than they were a short time ago. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. No. Av. Pr. No. Av.

The most of the trading, however, was done on the better weight nog. Th market continued active until about sixty loads had changed hands, and than buysrs lowered their bids and would not give any mors than steady prices as compared with yesterday. Seller, of course, were holding for the morning bids, and as a result the cloae was very slow and weak, and It waa late before anything like a clearance was made. On the start ths better weight hog sold largely from 86.00 to tato. Medium weights went from 86-86 to 36.96, and tb light stuff from 86.80 down. Light hogs. In particular, were hard to mova at what sellers considered satisfactory price. Rep resentative, sales: No. Av, 8h. Pr. NO. 68..., 62... 78..., Av. Sh.
