Sustained.
CinCAOO, Aug. . The wheat market
at strung from the start, cloning 'tio
higher lor September and le up for De
cember. Corn held steady ai a small ad
vance, September closing Mifuc higher and
Iiecember up Oata showed considera
ble strength, closing c higher for Septem
ber and tiie higher for December pro
visions were firm at yesterday's close.
The weaiher here and abroad exerted
considerable Influence In the wheat market
and tha, together with strong outside rar
kets, created an urgent demand. There
waa an absence of Heavy selling orders,
and while profit-taking on the moderate
advances prevented any soaring, the bullish
feeling Increased throughout the session,
final prices being about the best. Septem
ber, opening at 'ru 'ae to He better than
yesterday's close, advanced with but a tem
porary break to 80pe, until It touched 8oe
Just before the close, which was a shade
eusler at 8"fl 804c, a Rain of "if7: De
cember closed higher at &2tc, selling
up from the opening. 8H4fc8lic Both the
northwest and southwest were buyers In
this market. Cash markets were all strong,
l'rlmary receipts were 761, "0 bushels,
against 1,001, luo bushels last year. Minne
apolis and Duluth reported receipts of 313
cars, which,. wlih local receipts of 1U cars,
13 of contract grade, made a total for three
points of 424 cars, against 286 cars last week
and 43. a year ago.
Predictions ot cold weather In the corn
belt following yesterday's heavy rains
caused free covering by shorts and resulted
In a firmer tone In the corn pit. There was
an early advance under this Influence, but
liquidation on the upturn (caused a reaction
and .1 loss which was not entirely regained,
although the late strength In wheat helped
the market and gave It strength at the
close. September was up V'i'mC at 603JC,
after selling between 60 VIW V" M c- Decem
ber closer! C nignnr oi oi'nic, rnnsins
between &0WMic and 514e. Local receipts
were 298 cars, with 2S of contract grade.
There was a rather strong market In oats,
notwithstanding selling by the leading Ions
holders, the strength being partly due to
tho strong tdne In wheat and partly to good
shipping demiind and decreasing receipts.
Local longs bought on all reactions and
ther? was a fair demand from commission
houses. Beptember closed c higher at
84tp34c, after ranging between 3mif34c
and Mc December closed H'SV.e higher at
3tWi 36'Ao. Local receipts were 148 csrs.
frovlslons were firm early on buying by
packers, hut later there was a scattered
selling, with little' support. A rally took
plsco In the day on renewed buying, at
trlbuted also to the packers, final p-ices
being Vnehangod at yesterday's close, $12.63
for h'-pieinhcr pork, $8.20 for lard and $"i.GTVa
for ribs. A
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat,
SO cars; corn, 226 cars; oats, 160 cars; hogs,
23.(100 head.

NEW YORK STOCKS AXD HOSD9.
Silver Balllon Reaches Highest Price
Slnre November, ltH)t.
-NEW YORK, Aug. 26. Nothing worthy
ofextended comment was accomplished by
today s menger bidding In stocks either in
the way of distribution of securities or
pi ice change. The volume of dealings fell
another notch toward ubsulute s.ugu.uion
wiin u total for the day of about zui.uuO
shares, and the rrice cnins leaching a
point we.e few. it was observed that ihu
telephone colls on the exchange una 1 tie
annunciator calls to memlx-rs oy number
Were extruoralnarlly few, which is regarded
as evidence iht very little business orig
inated outside of the exchange. fc.ven tne
professional operators are going away for
delayed vacations, which bave been pre
vented hoieiotoie by the troubled slate of
the market and the smaller class of room
traders have the market to themselves. It
la the complaint amongst these that when
they offer prices down they are uimbie to
tone hiiv lenewal of ilouluation. and that
they soon meet supporting orders wnile If
they attempt a turn on the long side ot the
market ihey are unable to find a satisfac
tory market to realise on at any advance in
prices.
Attention In the financial districts Is cen
tered upon the money market rather than
upon stocks. Today's official admission of
the failure of tho enoi ts of the Consolidated
Lake Superior company to secure subscrip
tions to Its bond Issue, wrs another ex
ample of the extreme difficulty of inducing
capital to assume anv fixed form. There
ta continued unwillingness to lend money on
time, and rates are sticsjgly held, although
there is llttl demand for loans of tins
class, owing to the extreme dullness in tne
stock market. Offerings of bankers' finan
cial Mils In fhe foreign market today
caused a yielding tone is spite of a hard
ening tendency in discount at London and
Paris. Attention was attracted to me re
turns of the Canadian bank statement for
July which shows a tailing off In loans on
call In the United States ny these Institu
tions of more than $14.000, tmo in twelve
months, while current loans In the United
States were reduced by about 6,iwu,ikio.
This helps the maintenance or tne loan ac

here this morning, but evidently none too
many to meet the requirements of the local

corn-feda were neglected the same as usual.

matter to get even a bid on them. If any

The demand for stockers and feeders
waa again brisk, and the market ruled ac

were over 40 cars shipped to the country.
Common cattle were, ot course, more or
less neglected, the same as usual, but still
they sold at aoui sieauy pnc.
There were very few western beef cattle
on sale this morning, and those that were
offered were lacking In quality. Packers
did not seem to be at all anxious for com

Slow and weak. At the same time buyers
claimed they were willing to pay good

HOGS There
was
more liberal tup of
htigs here today than has arrived In seme
time past, and as unfavorable reports were
received from the east the market here
opened slow and generally 15c lower, or all
the way fnom 10c to 20c lower, light
weights were In the best demand ahel were
not over lrvgiso. lower. They sold largely
from $5.35 to $o.67V. The heavy hogs, how
ever, elignged hands slowly, nfid were Wti
2"c lower. They sold largely from $6.20 to
$3.30, and medium weights .from $.V80 to
$5.35. Heavy hogs did not Improve any as
the day advanced, and some had to sell as
loir as $5.15. Trading was slow from start
to finish, and as a result It was late before
a elesranee was made.
The close of the market was extremely
slow and weak and at noon there were still
bout a third of the receipts In first hands
and packers did not Seem to be at all
anxious for them. Representative snles:

SHEEP There was a light run of sheep
and lambs here this morning and as a
result the raarket ruled active and steady.
Packers all wanted A few, so It only took
a short time fnr everything at all desirable
to change hands. Some of the same
wethers that brought $3.25 yesterday sold
for the same price today. Some fair ewes
brought $2.65 and some lambs $4.60.
There were only a few bunches of feed
ers on sale and .they changed" hands readily
at steady prices.

t'ondemalag Majority of Coaaty
C'ommlssleaers for Ordering
Kew lades. Book.
President Nash of the Omaha Electric
Light and Power company sent this self
explanatory letter to the meeting ot the
Omaha Real Estate exchange yesterday:
Mr. Aleg O. Charlton, Secretary Omaha
Real Estate Exchange, Omaha: Dear Sir
I am In receipt of your favor of August 21,
and In reply would say, 1 shall ue very
glad to appear before the Real Estate ex
change ana Hilly explain the proposed pion
for lighting the streets of the city under
the proposition to bu made to the city
council.
For obvious reasons, however, I cannot
publicly discuss the details of this plan
until It Is presented to the .city council. 1
would therefore respectfully suggest that
the matter be deferred until one week from
today, when, If the Real Estate exchange
Will take the matter up, I shall be greatly
obliged. Yours truly, A. Nash, i resi
dent. On motion of Mr. Graham the explana
tion given by Mr. Nash was accepted and
the extension of one week granted. The
motion also provided that a representative
of the Omaha, Qas company be heard the
succeeding week.
A aiming resolution condemned the
majority of the Board of County Commis
sioners for ordering, at an estimated ex
pense of $300, a copy of index book No. t.
It recited that there is no necessity what
ever for making a copy of this book and
upheld the position of the register of deeds,
who has declared the work unnecessary.
Will Help Clvlo Clabs.
The exchange, after hearing; the report of
Its special committee, decided to give the
Federation of CIvJo Improvement clubs all"
the moral support In Its power, but that t'.ie
time Is not yet ripe for the exchange to ap
point delegates to It.
O. O. Wallace, W. H. Green and George
H. Payne will represent the exchange at the
irrigation congress In Ogden next mdnth.
D. C. Patterson, as president of an Irriga
tion company, and also other members of
the exchange probably will also attend the
congress, but the exchange la limited to
three direct representatives.
O. G. Wallace submitted a 3,000-word re
port on "Omaha Real Estate as an Invest
ment," a task assigned him two weeks ago.
The report was approved and the dally
press requested to reproduce it
Messrs. Graham, Harry Tukey and Mor
ton were appointed a committee to Investi
gate the matter of the employment of a
second assistant city attorney. From its
present knowledge the exchange believes
such an office unnecessary. The same com
mittee was Instructed to present to the
Board of County Commissioner's the resolu
tions above noted condemning the board.
GOSSIP OF COMMISSION ROW
Hucksters Torn Oat with Provisions,
bat Consumers and Grocers
Are Scarce. -
There was a decidedly one-sided market
yesterday. The gardeners and buck
sters were there In full force, but cus
tomers were not. Tho driving rain kept all
consuming customers away and even the
grocers were a little shy on numbers and
still more shy In their purchases, the fac'
that they will be closed tomorrow on ac
count of the big plcnlo being given as the
reasdh. 1
Corn took a decided tumble, going down
to 5 cents a dozen, and after all the mar
ket was over there was still a large quan
tity on hand. 3ut potatoes, defying,
weather and lack of customers, not only
held firm, but even went up 6 cents, selling
at 80 cents a bushel. Sweet potatoes found
a ready, sale at $1.40 per bushel.
Cabbage also look a flight, going to 75
cents, while cucumbers and onions were
content to hold their figures for several
days past, and tomatoes dropped to 16
cents a basjeet. Apples went 'at 65 and 76
cents a bushel and plenty of them were on
the market.
6nly one full load of home grown grape
came In. They sold at 86 cents a basket.
Due to lack of demand the raise on peaches
waa not effective and they were held at
$1.10 a crate. Other foreign fruits were
quiet and- steady.
It was announced at noon that, notwith
standing the rain here, the grocers and
butchers' plcnlo will be held tod.iy,
snd that consequently there will not be .
any margea
HELP FOR THE AUDITORIUM
some Money Already Received la Re
sponso to Appeal of Execu
tive Committee.
The first responses to the appeal of the
Auditorium executive committee have been
received, and the committee trusts that
they are but the forerunners of many mors
which will be made during the next few
days.
The Omaha Coal and Coke company,
through Manager Cooper, sent In $160, and
J. A. C. Kennedy and J. W. Fead each sent
In $10.
The committee desires to Impress upon
all those who have not yet contributed, or
who feel that they are able to subscribe
more than they have up to th present, the
urgent necessity for prompt action. The
Auditorium, the committee declares, "must"
be under roof before winter, snd If this Is
to be accomplished more ready vnoney must
be secured.
Officially brick and stone work was .re
sumed on the Auditorium yesterday. All
materials and also plenty of workmen were
on hand, but the heavy rain Interfered.
With good weather, however, the walls will
rise rapidly from this time.
