The corn market trailed along after
wheat. There was extreme weakness early
and a marked lecovery shoitly afterward

Borne Net Galas.
NEW YORK. Jan. 4. -Today's stock mar
ket was much leas subject to Hie liilluence
of war news than on Saturday. The feeling
that some other event than an outbreak
of war between Russia and Japan might
tie overhanging the market had something
to do with the sharp reaction from the
early bulge. But the Influence of the war
news was not entirely lacking In the re
action, as London renewed its selling on
the advance here and Japanese bonds In
London did not hold all of their first buy
ing value. The buying of the first hour
was rather precipitate on the part of those
who sold Saturday, and saw nothing in the
markets today to warrant the extreme ap
prehension of Saturday. The recoveries
of the first hour were quite violent In some
cases and were quite generally as much as
1 to 2 points. All but a small portion of
these gains were lost In the second hour.
The drop of prices waa not checked by
the markedly easier tone of the call monev
market and the progressive easing of cafl
loans during the day. This development
robbed the bank statement of Its unfavor
able Influence and pointed to the conclu
sion that-the $16.000,0i loan Increase was
largely due to the annual Interest and
dividend requirements such as would soon
be released to the market again. The
satisfactory outlook In the money market
was Jhe factor In the final hardening of
the stock market, which left a fair allow
ing of net gains at the end of the day.
Corporation btiyings are still counted
upon, but the reflux of funds from the in
terior is looked to to replenish the local
bank reserves. The return of funds to the
New York banks is commonly heavy dur
ing the month of January. Sterling ex
change stiffened shArply today and no en
gagements of gold for Import were re
ported locally, but Ixndon advices stated
that receipts there of $1,260,000 of gold had
all been secured for New York.
United States Steel preferred was a lead
ing feature In the speculation owing to the
dividend meeting to be held tomorrow.
Much interest Is felt In the showing to be
made by the statement of earnings for the
quarter. Reports of a threat of strike In
the Carnegie works gave a mixed charac
ter to the speculation in the stock. The
strength of the Iondon market for raw
cipper was the only news that would ac
count for the strength In Amalgamated
Copper. The reopening of tiie anthracite
mines after a ten days' shutdown was a
help to the coalers. A freer movement of
grain may have prompted some buying
of the Grangers. Ra41road officials con
tinue to repori tin (Tic weir sustained and to
speak hopefully of prospects. The market
closed fulrly steady, but very dull.
Bonds were heavy, with slight recoveries
at some points. Total sales, par value,
$2,430,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

CATTLE There was only a moderate
run of cattle In the yards this morning,
but reports from Chicaao were rather .un
favorable to the selling interests and fc a
result the market here was no more than
steady. Practically everything, though,
was disposed of in good Shane, with com
paratively little change In ruling prices
from last week's close.
'1' ll f 1 r m w,r nnl iiirv manv onrn.f o,t
Steers Included In the receipts this morning
and most of those that did arrive were of
only fair quality. Handy and lightweight
cattle of decent quality met with ready
sale and In some cases were perhaps even
a little stronger. The heavy cattle, Ihuogh,
were not as active and in some casts wure
pessibly a shade easier. In other words,
the market was all the wav from a shads
easier tu. a shade stronger or geneia ly
sieaay.
1 ne cow marxet opened quite active and
some of the belter grades sold the first
round a shade stronger. It soon settled
down, though, to about a steady market
and toward the close some were even
calling It a trifle easier. Buyers certainly
did not appear as anaious for supplies to
ward the close as they wars early, so that
even If there was nut much change in tne
pr;ces paid there was not as much
activity.
There was not enough change In the
price paid for bulls, veal calves and stags
to be worthy of mention.
The ctocker and feeder market was
active und steady to strong this morn
ing, as there was considerable Inquiry from
the country and receipts were very light.
Everything at all desirable was soon dis
posed of and even the common stuff sold
without trouble at fully steady prices. Rep
resentative tales:

HOGS There waa a fairly liberal run of
ho its here this morning, but there was
quite a boom In the market at all pointa.
Higher provlalons were largely responsible
for the sharp advance and aa they eased
off a little later In the day the hog marv
ket closed lower. The market at this point
could be quoted aa opening lilic higher
and for a time was 15c higher. To war!
the close ths situation was not ss good snd
some nt the late arrivals had to sell with
half the advance lost. The market was
active, except toward the close, when
salesmen wanted the early prices and
fiackers would not give them. As result
t was a little late before everything was
disposed of. The heavy mixed hogs sold
largely from 34.76 to 34 Iso. with prime
heavies from 34 80 to 34 90. Light mixed
hoirs sold from 34 70 tn $4 75 and the light
stuff from 34 70 down. Representative sales:

COURT HOUSE ANNExTn FAVOR
Proposed Ad 41 It low Is Meettasr w f k
Much Kaeonraaeaaeat Areaad
the Coanty Ralldlwa.
The project looking to ths building of a
west wing to the court house, ss Outlined
In The Ree, la ths subject of genersl con
versatlon about the rounty building.
Members of the district bench snd cef
tain of the county commissioners agret
that the present structure IS not adapted
to ths Increasing volume of business whlcb
Douglas county requires to be transacted.
"The addition lo the west of ths court
house, ns proposed by the district bencb
and fathered by Judge Day, would a (Tors'
ample room for two Judges, the count
treasurer and recorder of deeds," said ont
of the advocates. "It also would afford tht
13 Jurors necessary for each term of court
some place where they could rest during
their unoccupied moments and where they
could smoke and read without discom
moding the visitors ot the court. This Ii
the prime motive on the part of Judge Ds
and others who are behind ths project. Al
present the entire Jury panel Is often found
sitting In the dark corridors of ths court
house, smoking their pipes nnd Havana,
filling the air with clouds of smoke and
making the corridors quite Impassable.
"The new move has ths hearty endorse
ment of all the county officials. It there,
fofo remains a question as to what tht
county commissioners will do In the mat
ter. Rut little hope Is entertained thai
the commissioners will tnks up the mattat
with any degree of relish, but the move
ment Is gaining such strength as to Indi
cate that some action on the part of th
commissioners cannot long be delayed."
