AVLRAGE GAINS FROM 3C TO 5C A BUSHLL September Hint In Minneapolis I p to $1.B Cr I) Admitted Speculative Sborta Caver WildlyCorn Weak. OMAHA. Aug. 13, IPU Thursday's rush or selling In the wheat Till of the world wm Just a little too unanimous. The selling; then wa so fsrh lonabls that not only did longs take profit, but tha speculative fraternity overshit the market and put out a fine line of short wheat. Liverpool did aot cure a rent for the weakness In America. The continental crop was in K perk of dancer, short yields and large Import that will have to ha made. The Morles from the north went were almply covered with runt and turr.lng eo unanimous that further returns tre simply superfluous. It wss a continuation of these stories, coupled with an urgent demand from all sections for actual wheat, and the netting busy of shorts tl.nt Rive the market a strong ton at the opening and that brought higher prlcea than any thing that thla crop has Been very shortly after the opening. Chicago wanted Hop temher. December and May wheat, Min neapolis waa a crsrv huver of 8'ptembr and cash wheat. Kansas' City turned hull lah and the market of the world Joined In the ahonp-lt-up. The most daring speeu lator would not be blamed for hesitating, becoming uneaav and finally lettlni rmt after the unamlnlty of action shown in the wiieat market of the world. Hpm In Omaha not hlah grade Just a common No. t grade of wheat sod. il flOs e hnah.1 There was little Interest speoulatl vely,. the more active Chicago market being tempting to speculative traders, but the demand for caeh wna unahaid and certain to absorb an supplies at hitch naurea.

Other points met the advances of Chicago and Minneapolis 8 points, and It wrm a cnae or nuy wheat moat tinant moualy so and alao a rush for seller to take their loeees snd avoid further danger. In the cloning hours of the session the market moved in the direction of renewed atrength. The speculative element kept busy. Minneapolis showed that It had re alised that Minnesota and Dakotas' crop damage talk was nearer right than they had yet been willing to admit. Sep tember shorts up there were especially anxious to get in out of the fain and they bid the future up to $1.78. In Chicago it was the May future that was especially wanted and tha price advanced to $1.14'A. these figure showing an Improvement of t in Mlnne--e. polls and t points In Chicago. Other future advanced sharply and closed near the top. . Omaha hasn't much Interest In specula tlon other than the plnys being made on the active markets, but the oaah wheat , business here and the corn trade is excel lent. Copious ralna nil over the western corn bolt were responsible for a sharp decline of about a point in alt futures. Had It not been for the normal strength in wheat the break would have been more severe, but traders were encouraged by the action, of the other cereal. Oata were comparatively steady. The demand was Just fair moderately active and the closing prices for ail deliveries were Just where they were yesterday.

A cotiflderahle falling ott In speculative interest waa tne noticeable tact aoout the sioca nArkt. 'ine volume of contracts and the fluctua tion In prices were narrower ano more sluggish, ine decline In activity reduced tno demand tor biocks and resulted In a heavy undertone, without any marked pressure 10 sen. Ine general action of the nwrket wee still much the same as tor the two previous uays. Sustaining points of strength at the opening proved inAiiltirlent to hold price., but later deal ings rehected the ocrasl inal rally of tne forces behind the market. Steel trade failed to cause any wine movements in the prlcea of securities, but it was the oc casion of great concern neverthele.-.. united States ft Lee I nrererrrd nr.i evi dently supported and its decline thus lim ited to , but the heaviness of that Block proved of marked effect. Rumors of cuta and the mretlng of cuts In prices of wire and of structural steel eliminated tno tears of a -spread of the trouble. Some of the rumors current dur Irur the day pointed to a weakening of the market for steel rails itself bv shidlna of prices for the lighter-weight grades. Sugar wna sun an unsertung innuence by Its further recession In pricee. The most re straining factor early waa the large demand lor Pennsylvania, wmrn csrrled to 124. ths highest figure touched since the long de cline rencnea alter tne new ,5.(iii,ii stocK Issue. Thlfl stock met some verv fine real ising on thla advance and encountered dif ficulties outside of the dragging effect of steel and sugar. The calamity reports from the spring wheat crop came in a new flood, and the response of the wheit market made some Impression on stocks. The news of corn was better and helped the resistance to depression In stocks. Tha estimates of weekly currency movement Indicate another addition to the New York caah hcirds, but It la clear thst the current is turning In favor of the Interior. ftovernment operations continue tn vleld to the New York market, which will he a safeguard against depletion by the In- lennr uemann so long as tn treasury au thorise special notes for national banks in order to replenish their working bal ances. With the high prices for grain rul ing It is not likely that the Interior crop moving demand will be less) than usual. The advance in exchange today waa suffi cient to revive some discussion of go'd ex port pronaoiiiura. 'uronaoiy the prospect in the money market had some repressive effect on the situation, although the money rn.nrK.et was uiuirrected. The further ad vance in smelting and the strength of the Mexlcana were of a special character and of little general effect. The grangers wio cumDea to tne spring wneat . dleaa:er rumors In the late dealings and helped to make the closing easy. Ronds were firm; total sales, par value, $2,815,000.

None of the buyers seemed to be very anxious for supplies and as a result trading was slow, although there wag no great change In prices. Volte a few eornred steers arrived end the same as has been the case of late, the better grades sold without much tronblo at steady prices, while the short feds were nara to move at any ngure. There were seme rattle-on enle good" enough, to ."hflnsr $5.76. but they were from the same feed lot I as the ones that brought f 6 75 on Tuesdiy. The cattle toda .weighed 1,464 pounds, or tnirty-six pounds lees tnan tne Tuesatv shipment. Light cattle In fair flesh were herd to sell and some yenrllngs thst were offered todav would not brlna within a dol lar rer hundred of what they sold for Just I before the strike. , I There were hardlv enouerh cows here to- I day to test the market, but the few that were offered sold about steady with yester day's strong close, or little better than th same kinds brought yesterday morning. It did not appear, though, that buyers were anxious for anv great number and what the market would have been with a norma: run Is hard to tell. Bulls, veal calves and stRgs sold In just shout the same notches they have been for the last few days. There were Just a few bunches of stack er and feeders on sale and as the demand from the country yesterdnv was in fnlrlv pood shape speculators took hold and ptld stsdv prlos todav, even thouah th" c'oe of the week Is st hand. About rln"'een err were shipped to the country yesterday, which Improved the situation materially. There were ou'te s few western g-e beef steers on sale this morning, snd while rsrkers d'd not take hold of them with sue life, the better arades could be o"otd stesdv. with common kinds verv flul' -wid perhaps A little lower.

Trading, though, whs not very brisk, for the reason that only part of the buyers and shippers were offering the prices. Whenever a sales man could get that much advance he was willing to cut loose. The heavy weight sold euriy. largely from $5.00 to $5.06. with coarse heavies from $5.0o down. Mixed hotis sold largely from $5.06 to $6.10, and lights and butcher weights mostly from $5. 10 to $5.15. As the morning advanced it became evi dent that the demand wus. fully equal to the supply, as shipper bought very freely. The market strengthen! d soon after the nnenlnir and became fully a dime hlarher.
