Newspaper Page TextTHE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY. JULY 13, 1504 7 CRAK AND PRODUCE MARKET Hull An Reigning Supreme and Bean Have Hard Time. RELAXATION IN PRICES . STILL ABSENT vtneat 'War Above I or ma 1 Because ot Schema of Longs to Sai Thorn Who Moat Produce It la a fact too plain for argument that tha bulla are naving their Inning in tna grain game, and for the dwlfr who llkn reaaonaoie Value h- ts bring baaiy worsted. Prices in all lines and nearly ail montha fai from relaxed today, and on tha other hand me tone, especially of wheat and oaie, waa much atronger man the sell ra of last ween anticipated. Ai a result snorts continued covering ai high wave ng urea. Locally wheat la way above what It hould be through the endeavor of the longs to iqufHc tlie feiiowa who muai maae good on the July grain belore tha let day of August. The goveiiunent report lent Its strength In bulling wheat and corn, while corn was reported doing better than realised. (Statis tician Jones issued a very bullish report, estimating the entire wheat crop at 680, 000,0X1 as against tmO.fJOO.UOO, the ngurea of Snow, Fair weather la predtcteu tor tha next twenty-four hours, but even thla fac tor had little enect In bearing the maritet. A prominent Nebraska, elevator firm esti mates the crop nt thla .state at li6.000u bushels maximum, which Is considered the 4 most bullish factor since the first of the - storm damage In Ratines. The estimate Is considered aa Very reliable at Chicago and Omaha. Twamley, Son A. Co. received a private wire from Manitoba In which tne estimate of the crop there la placed at omy tsj.nou.ouQ bushels, which la not better than last year, and that was a short one In that section. During the last part of the Session here Van oorn, who is supposed to be short at least 60,000 bushels or July wheat, liked the figure 91c and offered to sell. Jaqulth bought of him and the price was promptly bid up to ill He. - The government crop report as announced by the George A. Adams Grain company follows: "The government report makes the condi tion of spring wheat 9S.7, compared with W.4 last month and 82 5 the same period let year. Winter wheat- was given at "8.7, compared with 77.7 last month and 78.11 last year. "Corn condition Is given at 88.7, compared with 7V.4 a year ago, and oats at fcS.S, compared with 84.1 a year ago. "The report on wheat Is about as ex pected. On a basis of sixteen and a halt bushels per acre. It Indicates a crop of about 60,000,000 bushels. It does not, of course, reflect the damage that haa been done la the southwest by rains this month. "The report on corn shews the acreage of corn planted to be about 81,330,000 acres, an Increase of 2,130,000 acre, or 2.4 per cent on the area planted last year. With the condition 7 points higher than last year, on a larger acreage, It Is not likely to be construed as bullish, the low condition no doubt being due to the general backward ness of the crop, which favorable weather ia fast making good. "The oats condition Is not materially vimiiami 11 villi luuuiu tuu muivaifll a Urge yield."

Opening sales of Feptemher were at 84Vr to 4p, a decline of Vic to S'6vr- "nd for a time there was sharp rivalry among traders to rid themselves of their long holdings. September sold up to Wc and ffTirts of earlier sellers to regain the lines dis posed of on the decline, together wlih the scurry to cover by shorts, held the price firm. The clo was a shade under the top, at H,frxfic. Higher outside markets also influenced the late tone.

NEW YORK, July 12,-The wavering and uncertain ltuctuauona In todsy s stock market gave place to some positive evi dences of strength late In the day. with considerable Incresse of animation In the dealings. As a reflection of sentiment over the outlook for the affairs in busi ness and Industry the movement may bst be construed as an Expression of hope fulness still tempered by uncertainties. The Immediate movement was Isrgely pro fessional and waa largely Induced by characteristic traders' motives. The eas ing oft of prices after the opening In face of the government monthly crop re port was a source of much disappointment snd was taken to Indicate clearly thst the speculative party who took profits on so large a scale yesterday were still eager to realize on their holdings on all ad vantageous opportunities, 'i ne room trad ers later on Became suspicious that the selling was designed to depress prices In order that stocks sold at s profit yesterday mlgnt be renought at a lower level. This suspicion was ih principal Influence In the late rise, which embrsced the mar ket generally. The conclusion drawn from the resumption of the rise Is that the tent ing of the market by last week's profes sional operations proved Its absorptive power and encouraged new commitments lor a furtner rise. Confidence In the suc cess of the country's harvests was rrob ably an Important Influence In the better tone of speculative sentiment, although It was not Immediately manifeet. It was feared that the good condition of the monthly ' report might have de teriorated since the date of the condition there Indicated and the weekly bulletin of the weather bureau was awaited. Its publication at noon aroused some appro henslon In the grain markets, owing to the damage to winter wheat reported. Some rather alarming private advices re garding crop damage also had an In fluence In the wheat market, but were un noticed In the stock market. The strike of meat workers strengthened the pro vlaions market and cannot be said to have aided the rise in stocks. Some poor re turns of railroad gross earnings for the first week In July also made their appear ance. The special strength of Reading wus accompanied by rumors of an early exchange of second preferred stock into half first preferred and half common stocks, according to the privilege pro vided. Conjectures as to the earnings of United States Steel for the current quar ter were more favorable than haa Deen the case recently. The market closed ac tive and strong and with many net gains ranging from 1 to 2 points. Prices gen erally crossed the high level of last week. There were some Irregularities In the bond market, due to weakness In a few Is sues Total sales, par value. $3,240,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

THIEF MAKES RESTITUTION Government Will, However, Prosernle Man Who Stole Many laslgned Bank Notes. ST. IOUI8, July 12. Robert B. Taylor of New York, who confessed stealing un signed bank notes to the mount of $-1,720 from the Cltlsens' Central National bank ot New York Cl'ty, today made restitution, having given his check for $200 to Henry Demse, cashier of the bank, to make good the difference between the amount of the notes found upon him when nrrested and the amount stolen. The fact that restitution has been made, however, will make no difference In the prosecution of the case, as the United States district attorney says that Taylor will be brought before the November fed eral grand Jury. Taylor is desirous of being taken to New York for trial, but as he has already waived a preliminary hear ing before the United States commission here, the prosecution will continue In this city. Taylor Is charged with having In his possession forged and altered bank notes of the United States. Hill Posters In Session. ST. LOUIS.

It. family ha been assembled awaiting the HABITS OF THE ELEPHANT What an Old Kerper gays About His B'g Charges, GOOD NATURED AND LOVING IN HIS WAY Man Who Has Spent Many Years I' Company with the Hear Ileaeta nires Them a Good Same. He was a cherry-red cheeked man of thl German type and had Just settled blmseli for an after-dinner smoke, lie had prob ably turned 40 and at least half of h a years had been devoted to elephant train ing. To look after the welfare of forty elephants, which he must do, doi not ap pear an attractive job, but there were n lines of care In his face nor his stralghi up and down frame. "The beat part of my life has been spent In the company of elephants nml nenrly every day somebody tells me things about them I don't know. What makes me most tired la the fool question about bad e.e phants. A bad elephant Is a freak and H seldom come up with. The Mr beast Is as domestic as the hi rse, although n little too cumbersome for the same uses. When an elephant gets a little cranky there is always some light-headed attendant, it seems, lo fly off and say he h crazy. Ninety-nine times o;it df a hundred the poor elephant has been badly treated, and as he cannot talk, he does nbout the only thing he can do, and trumpets his disgust and maybe eases his feelings by taking a crack wlih his trunk at something within rertch. KlcphnntR rre as kind-he.irted and tender ns women and respond to JltUe at tentions In the same way, and In the same way, Just like a woman, when they get soured it takes a long wt Me to sweeten them again, if It can be done ut all. "Because the elephant ia such a. blir.nnl mnl moat people think he must be full of danger. This Is nil nonsense. Did you over notice, how foqd they nre of children? Who ever heird of an elephant hurting n. child? Why( In our winter quarters the boys and girls will pet them nnd wnlk around them, nnd the elephants enjoy it. They will move so an to mnke room and never step on their feet. This Is more than can be said of horses. In their Jungle homo the bubles always run under their mother's body when any danger approaches, and explorers say thnt, no matter how panicky the stampede, they havo never found more than two or three crushed baby elephants. This may account for the fact that ele phants never make the mistake of stepping on a friendly foot. The animal Is really of a loving disposition and very gentle and obedient. What Ho Cannot Do, "An elephant cannot Jump. He cannot even cross a trench six or seven feet vide, although the step of a large one is more than alx fet long. There are times In the movement of a circug when it ' would be impossible to get on without him. The big, heavy cages used by Ring-ling Bros, never could be set In place on time with out his powerful help. I have seen a heavy stake and chain wagon stalled In mud up to the hub,' where horses could not budge it. Then his trunk and tusks nt once became a lever, screw-jack, dog hooks and crane. With his aid the wagons were pushed out of their trouble nnd those that were tipped over were righted, so that work could go on In the necessary quick way of a circus.1 The elephant's head, protected with a pad, , "is a ram of Immense force.rxtese thlBge'.ehow that he Is a mighty useful fellow in our Vorld and not half as bad. as many people think. "The real elephant the one I know Is the best-natured wild animal in the world. He is affectionate, loyal, obedient and as ready to learn aa a child. He looks on the cheerful side of things and will P'y with his neighbor, even when so old that his bones are stiffened with rheumatism. They have a family feeling and when one Is sick It would do your heart good to see the others give it attention. They will bring bundles of straw to make its bed. will toss wisps of hay over Its back and body (a practice elephants Jove) and save the choicest of the food they may pick up for the uillng elephant. When one of them dies, even If It happens In a remote quarter, they seem to know It intuitively and their sorrow Is as plain to the eye as a human being s. At such times their trunks hang limp, their eyes overflow with water and their bodies lose that BWlngiUat motion which they seem to be forClv' enjoying. Love Their Rabies. "Their fondness for a baby elephant IS almost human. The little one owned by Rlngllng Brothers is a wonderful comfort to the big herd. This youngster is now over a year old and Is aa full of mischief as a young colt. We give him the liberty of the big barn because if we didn't he would whine and whimper so aa to get the whole elephant family into the dumps. He gets the best ot everything that la fed to his ciders and Is selfish enough to take it, even, if he cnu't eat it. It is fun to see him try to hide things he doesn't want, Just for the mere sake Of keeping them. I am at a llttlo loss to figure this out, because his mother was an unselfish beast and his father was a Jolly, good natured fellow, who would let Any of his mates lick up his bran without any kick. "The duu;liter la best at her father-in-law's house and the elephant Is bent at the rajah's,' Is the Indian way of saying that daughters and elephants are an expensive luxury. But however that j.-ay be, and all good things, after all, come under the head of cost, don't let anybody lead ju into the belief that an elephant belor.,. :o the savage class some writers clnl.n."
