TIIE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, JTJ.NE 24, 1002. COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Pricei in All Pitt Borne Up hj Bullish Arguments. PROVISIONS SMASH MAXIMUM RECORD Hoc Trod aria Rrcord Top Valnes for the Year and Cereal Show Strength, Gal All Line in. CHICAGO, June 23. Grain bears were Caught In a trap today and were equeeied to the good profit of the bull. On a fickle weather market bears were Indjced to sell until the markets were oversold. F-rly weakness, however, especially In Wheat, was dispelled before the very bull lnh argument of greatly decreased stocks and everything on the board rallied and advanced with a rush. At the close July wheat was c higher; July corn, 14c higher, and July oats, He up. Provisions closed 124fjG0c higher at record-making prices. Clearing conditions In the wheat fields, s shown by the weather map at the opening, augmented by lower cables, In duced liberal early liquidation and short selling of wheat. After last week s bull ish arguments on wet weather, followed by Saturday's break, the bears thought that prices were much too high for the fair, warm weather they had In their minds for the harvests. The excitement over wheat scarcity abroad seemed to have subsided, and this gave the bears encouragement. Hulls who had paper profits that were threatened hastened to lake them. As a result July opened Htf fcttHfrtsC down, at 724U73c. There were a few early bullish statistics that were tost sight of for a time, but soon the crowd perceived that the pit was over sold. Hla decrease In stocks frightened the shorts and the rest of the day the trade was busy pushing prices up, as the shorts cried for cover. July worked up rapidly to 7441i74'4c, with apparent ease, tiuylng was general. There were renewed rumors that conditions were bad In France and that threshing returns were generally unfavorable. In tho main, however, the tide of trade was turned by shorts cover ing on the decreased stocks. Predictions lata In the day were for showers over much of the standing wheat. There' was a little dip from top prices on protlt-taklng, but July closed strong, o up, at TtVi't F44e. Local receipts were 24 cars, 7 of contract grade; Minneapolis and Duluth reported cars, making a total for the three points of 452 cars, against 462 last week and 484 a year ago. Primary re ceipts were 661,000 bushels, compared to 631,1100 bushels last year. Seaboard clear ances In wheat and flour equaled 347,tn0 bushels. The visible supply showed a de crease of 2.635,Ouuo bushels, where only 1,750,000 bushels decrease was expected. On passage breadstuffs decreased 2,632,000 bushels. World', shipments were 7,476,tiO bushels, against 9,481,000 bushels last year. Corn was very nervous all day. Early In the day there was marked artificial Strength In July options, caused by ar bitrary higher bids by the bull leaders, without considerable purchases. Fluctua tions were erratic and July quotations could hardly be called a criterion of the corn strength. Wheat, however, lent good aid to this pit on Its upturn, and there was urgent buying In the deferred fu tures at times, especially of December, which was oversold. Too much rain and cold weather has been a bullish feature In corn of Inte and In some sections of the corn belt, especially in Iowa, these conditions now prevail to some, extent. In other sections, however, crops are said to be In good condition. July at the opening Jumped from 66c to 674c then back to 6ti4c and closed 14c up at $7c. Business was not large, however, In this option. September sold from 6S'io to 60c and closed atrong, 1c higher, at 59vc. Receipts were liberal at 221 cars, 30 of contract grade. jaah corn was Improved, No. 8 selling at 62''a64c. Oats were strengthened by the advances Jn the other grains and by their own ex cellent cash situation. Early trades were at slight recessions on the Influence of temporary clear weather. Selling, however, was only scattered and there continued to ub buiiiu ibik or too mucn rain. Home sec tlona reported good crops, but with cash iw. a wmie selling at iKjMS'Ao prices ad vancea. juiy eold from 4)c to 41c, and after a dip on profit-taking closed firm, hba UD. at 40fec.

Industrials Are Weak, but Railroad ers Become Animated, NEW YORK. June 23 The dominating Influence of the small professional oper ators were manifest In the tendency of prices of railroad stocks to react t.i a previous level. The only trace of large speculative operations was In the Gould firoup, led by the Wabashs, and In Renti ng. The Industrial department was weak witn the excent on of one or two unim portant stocks and was under pressure of wnai inoKeo line genuine liquidation. ine Duvmg of tne vvaDasns was unex plained by any news development. It came from the same sources as have been actlvo for some time past In this group of stocks and represents the effort to realise the improvement In the properties through recent extensions and new acquisitions. The news of the day included a report of an appeal to a higher court of the city of Pittsburg s case against tn entrance into Pittsburg by the Wabash and an author ized statement of the project for a new railroad from Denver to Salt Lake City to connect with a proposed railroad to Los Angeles. This project is avowedly Intended as competitive to the western extensions ot the Gould system. But tne large nuying oi the various Gould stocks was not checked in any degree by this news. St. Louis Southwestern preferred, which has usually moved In company with the Gould stocks, was decidedly reactionary. This was the more conspicuous in view ot the further rise of 7 points In Chicago A Eastern Illinois, supposed to be set aside for absorption In the Interest of Bt Louis Southwestern. . Manhattan shared In tne strengtn ot tne Gould stocks In the early dealings and imparted some sympathetic strength to the other local tractions. The lU-noint rise In Reading was appar ently designed as an answer to the address to the public by the president of the United Mine Workers. Most of this gain was lost on the reaction. .

It Is the general conviction In Wall street that the proposed plan for conversion of Ere f erred stocks Into 6 per cent bonds will e blocked by the courts, thus leaving no offset to the Increase of fixed charges on the 150,000,000 new bond Issue. There seems to be fear that the payment of dividends on the common stock Is thus threatened. The reports.of minor labor troubles, while not directly affecting any special stocks, have a somewhat depressing effect on senti ment and several reports oi voluntary in creases In wages, Instead of having a re assuring effect were taken as pointing to the prevailing discontent of labor with tne present rate of payment. saturaay s umainiacun; Li was borne in mma ioay j helped to repress speculation.

Error from Douglas. Reversed and remanded, round. Division o. 2. I. The rule that a decision of this court Is the law of the case, not onlv as to the mints expressly considered In the opinion. :ut as to all matters necessarily Involved In the Judgment rendered, has nut the same application where the evidence at successive trlnls of the same cause Is so materially different as to affect the con- lusions readied 2. Where the evidence at a now trial Im or may be presumed to be materially dif ferent from that at a trial already reviewed by this court. In a siibseouont review It will Investigate the record iinlnftut -net d by lie former decision except so Tar us unes lons of law were there ail ludlcatcl t,ich apply equally to the evidence at each trial. 3. A bond executed pursuant to and In ubstantlal conformity with the provisions anil rciiiilremcnts of a statute needs 110 consideration to support It. 4. An undertaking not witnin tne pnr lew of the statute may nevertheless lie upheld as a common law contract If oihcr wlse unobjectionable and supported by a onsiiieraiion. 5. Under section 15. rhante- x. Compiled Statutes, an official bond must be approved as well as executed and lllcd within the time fixed by law. Such approval should ome before nllng and neglect to nrocuie approval of the bond renders the office vacant, if forfeiture is insisted upon, al though the bond Is duly executed and filed. t. wnue approval 07 me titlli-lni ootid of a tate offlcer Is not necessary to its valldltv as against the sureties thereon, but. as it is tor tne oenent or the public, may be waived; yet this waiver Is for the slate to mkc. and the unatil hortzed fillno- nf u bond without approval does not preclude the state from claiming a forfeiture under said section 15, chapter x. Compiled Stat utes. The governor, not tho secretary of state, Is to approve the bond of a state reasurer. Hence, so far as the slate Is concerned the llllng of a treasurer's bond by the wecretary of state before It has been approved by the governor, docs not dis pense with the necessity of approval. s. unless ana until the state declares nnd enforces a forfeiture such a bond be comes effective as against the principal and sureties from the time of delivery to and tiling by the secretary of xtnte. whether It Is approved or not. 9. The approval of such bond after In stead of liefore tiling thereof Is an ' irreg ularity" within the purview of section 13, chapter x. Complied Statutes, and has no effect upon Its validity. 10. If such a bond Is so approved after filing, quaere, whether the approval may not be said to relate back to the t me of filing In the sense that It would waive the neglect to procure approval In the time fixed by law. 11. it seems a proper construction of sec tion 15, chapter x, Compiled Statutes, that the forfeiture therein provided la not In curred by failure to procure approval of an omciai oonn wunin tne lime limited, pro vided such bond is filed In due time and is approved. 12. Approval or tne bond in sucn ense and waiver of the forfeiture bv permit tint: the principal to continue In and hold the office s suniclent consideration for the under taking of additional auretlea. who slsn after llllng, but before approval, for the purpose of procuring such approval and waiver. 13. A bond can be delivered but once. II after delivery It Is altered by the addition of further sureties, and agnln delivered, mere is in enect a delivery of a new bond which will take effect as such from tho date of the last delivery. 14. Addition of further sureties upon a bond after Its execution am delivery, with out tne consent or anoviouge or the orig inal sureties thereon, is a material altera tion tnereor, wnicn will release such orig inal sureties. 15. A Waiver la in intentional rellnnulHli. ment of known rlclilp. and, except In case of waiver of forfeiture, requires either consideration or the elements of estoppel. in. a material alteration, already made, may be ratified and adopted subsequently, and In such case the instrument as al tered will be binding. 17. It seems that such ratification does not require a new consideration, but It must be made Intentionally with respect to the very alteration relied on as a defense. 18. Sureties upon an official bond which hfla been delivered hut nnl v.t aiiiirni,. who desire to have the bond approved and ine principal retainea in nis onice, may to that end ratify and arioot generally ail alterations which may be required for the " porpciire, ana 11 iney cnoose to ao so and expiesly agree to remain bound notwith standing their knowledge of the exact con ditions of the bond when they so agree becomes immaterial. 13. A written waiver of alteration of a bond by addition of further sureties, ex ecuted by the original sureties thereon. Imported on Its face that the bond was In complete ana undelivered, it was In form a consent to the addition of any names that might be procured In the future, but also contained a provision that the orig inal sureties "are held as If said names had not been added." Construing such waiver, held, that whether additional sure- ties signed the bond before or after execu tion of the waiver was immaterial, since (1) If the bond was. as the paper Indicated incomplete and undelivered thn sureties might witnaraw at any time before It was accepted, whether t'.ere had been an al teration or not, and (2) the fair interpreta tion of the Instrument Is that the sureties not only agreed generally to the addition of any further names that might be pro cured uriui the bond was satisfactory to the state and was approved, but also rati. nea ana auoptea generally any and all al terations by addition of other names that Ttad been made at the time they executed sucn waiver. 20. Where the official bond of a state offi cer has been filed, but not anoroved. ami the sureties on such bond, In order to pro cure Its approval and prevent forfeiture of the principal s office, ratify and adopt an alteration made by adding other sureties) after delivery, there Is a consideration thereof, if a consideration were to be held necessary, and the sureties remain bound. 21. A pleading drawn and filed bv the at. torney general on behalf of the atate hav ing been Introduced in evidence aa an ad mission. It Is competent for him to testify to the theory of law upon which he drew and filed the same, for the purpose of ex plaining it and depriving It of Its apparent force. 22. Books snd records kept by a stats treasurer and atatements made by him and tiled In the office of the auditor are prima facie evidence against the sureties uiioh. his official bond. They are not conclusive, however, nor are the sureties confined to Impeachment of such books, record and statements; but they may show the facia as to when the defalcation occurred and the amount thereof In any way and by any testimony bv which any other fact would be established. 23. In view of the several dec Islont In this muse the sole remaining Issue Is whether tr.e defalcation of the principal In the bond occurred during the last term or In whole or purt during nis nrst term of office, and If such defalcation occurred during his last term the defendants are liable therefor. 11642.
