OMAHA. Mar 7, 104.
The following la a comparison of the high
points reachea tnls morning by grain tor
future delivery at Chicago and at Omaha:
May wheat, Chicago lc, Omaha Oc; July
inew) wheat, Chicago Mc, Omaha 7ac;
lay corn, Chicago 4.H.C, urn a ha 6jc; July
corn, Chicago 4Sc, Omaha doVkc; May oata,
Chicago 41i,e, Omaha 41c; September oats,
Chicago Vc, Omaha iXHc.. lay corn
reached a point 47c above the high In
Chicago. Tills was due to A. B. Jaqulth.
This futura opened at &oc, but the pears
got busy and ran It down to 49c. Jaqulth
then Jumped Into tha pit and offered too
then lie and Wo for It. He did not get
any. This is a part of his corn speculation.
Ha has taken practically all ot lha corn
delivered on tne May contracts.
A report la received the lake transporta
tion sirllte has been settled on all points
but the .wages, and thla, It waa said, would
be settlad today. The opening of naviga
tion means a great deal ta U.o grain men
of the country. The corn market Is fea
tureless now and no one knowa Juat What
the cash situation la until skipping begins.
Chicago aold no wheat i rlday. ua the
millers in the east will not buy mora
than they have to until lake navigation
Is opened, malting tha shipping rata
cheaper than tha all rail. Chicago aold
Friday 50,ii0 bu. corn and 66,001) bu. -Mita.
The cash business at Minneapolis Included
So.OM bu. wheat to interior points; Kansas
City sold 10,000 bu. No. 2 red at $10 and
tha seaboard sold 6,(W0 bu. wheat and 40,0ui)
bu. corn for export.
The crop news Friday waa very bad and
a gteat deal of It came. The professional
feeling is bullish, but the public uninter
ested. The bull crowd have to face tho
high price tn addition and tha poor milling
and a pot demand. The Chicago contract
stock la down to 600.OU0 bushels of wheat
and thla is expected to be eahausted by the
end of the week. The weather la not now
so favorable for crops with rain In Iowa
and the Ked river valley. Blanchard, N.
I)., says there Is no seeding being done
and it looks as if the vallt-y wouid get
left. Buying orders accompanied thla news.
The range In price of Oman grain for
future delivery and the dose today and

The demand for spot stuff for feedera and
for shipment continued, but the receipts
were very light, showing the farmers are
too busy with theii soring work to ship
any corn. Tho next movement from first
hands ennrot well be expected before the
closing days of the month. The market will
therefore probably run light. Prices on all
grains ruled steady to strong. Receipts

CATTLE There were practically no fresh
arrivals of catna in tne yards this morning.
For the wevk supplies have not been ex
cessive, aa there is a decrease as com
pared with Ltmt week amounting to about
u.ia'O head, anu as compared witn the same
week of last year there l& a falling off ot
about 2,000 head. The aupply, however, has
been fully equal to the demand and the
tendency of prices has been downward
rather than otherwise.
The market on corn-fed steers has been
in fairly good shape moat of the week, but
still packers have been rather bearish at
all points. The export demand ,ias not
been as brisk as it was last week and pre
vious to that time, and that of course
affected the heavy caule in particular.
Such kinds are probably right around Kytf
16c lower than they were at the close ot
last week. Cattle of all weights in fact
are that much lower unless very choice.
The light-weight cattle ot good quality are
not over a dime lower, as the local demand
for that class '.has bum T good. Good to
choice steers Tnag- be quoted from $4.60 to
$5.00, with something extra prime a little
above that. Fair to good grades go from
$4.00 to $4.50 and common 4o -fair from $3.50
to $4.00. .
The supply of butcher stock has been
light all the week, the big-bulk of the offer
ings being made . tip ot. steer. Choice
handy-Weight cews and heifers have been
given the preference and such kinds are not
much lower than they were a week ago,
but heavy eows and the medium grades of
all weights are safely a dime lower. Can
ners and the commoner kinds of cutters
were very slow sale toward the close of the
week and that class may be even more
than a dime lower. Good to choice cows
and heifers may be quoted from $3.25 to
$3.9). with prime as high .as 84.25. Fair to
good sell from $2.75 to $3.15 and canners and
cutters from 12. oO to $2.50. The season is
close at hand when grass cows will begin
to appear and buyers are already beginning
to discriminate against the half-fat kinds,
fearing that they have had some grass.
The bull market haa been fairly active
and fully steady sll the week. The bulk
of them sell from 3.1 00 o $3.75 -Itla choice
ones as high as 14 00 and. cwmnron stuff
goes Yrom $3.00 down. Veal calves are
about 50o lower for the week owing to in
creased receipts at all points. The bulk or
them sell from $4 00 to $5.00, with a top at
$5.25 against a top of $5.75 a week ago.
The supply of atockers and feeders has
been rather limited sll the week, and with
a fairly good demand from the country the
market has been active on the better
grades, with prices strong. The common
cattle, however, of all weights have been
neglected and are certainly no more thnn
steady. Medium-weight cattle that can be
run on grass during the summer and fed
next fall are in the greatest demand at the
present time. Good to choice rrades may
be quoted from $3.75 to $4.00. with prime as
high as $4 25. Fair to good sell from $3 50
to $3.75 and common kinds from $3 50 down.

HOGS There was a good run of hogs
here this morning for a Saturday, but pack
ers took hold freely and the market ruled
active and just about steady with y ester,
day's general market. The prices paid
were hardly sa good as tboe given at yes
terday's best time, but a little better than
at yesterday's close. The bulk of the good
weight ""hogs sold from $4.66 to $4 70 and a
high as $4.75 was paid- The lighter loads
went largely at $461 and from tha down.
Trading was active and everything was
disposed of at an early hour.
For the week - receipts are about 16.000
head short of the big run of last week, but
as compared with tne corresponding week
of last year they are a trifle heavier. Prices
have been fluctuating back and forth to
some extent, but closing prices are about
246o higher than these In force a weak
ago. Representative saies

1 hre Is nothing new to t ssld cf the
market for the -ek in addition to what
was reported s'.eriay. The muri.ll shows
a loss of sbint a quarter on the general

and coaches, so that there will be no fear of overcrowding. The Wabash will save you a
day, either going or coming, because you can get off at the exposition grounds, or, when
you leave, you can spend the last day at the grounds and start for home from the terminal
Wabash station, right at the entrance. The Wabash is the only road with these facilities.
