It has been a llMless market, though, all
the week, packers apparently having only
a limited demand for mutton. These same
conditions were experienced at all points,
so that this market is no different from the
others in that ricct. The common to
medium arrsdes were, of course, the tnoet
neglected, the more desirable bunches
meeting with fairly good demand all the

CHICAGO till AH AND PROVISIONS
Featore of the Trading; and Cloalng;
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. March 18. An official fore.
cast of colder weather was Influential In
strengthening the wheat market here today.
ine close May wheat was up c. July
Is UD a shade. Corn and natn Hhow a lnua
op VsSf'SiC. Provisions are practically unchanged.
Ihe wheat market miened with unmis
takable Indications of bullishness. Mav
was unchanged to 4e higher, at 1.14-Vfi
1.16. July wa a shade lower to MHo
iHKiter, hi vj?a'u9j'.4jc. rem ine start tne
May delivery was In active demand, shorts
being the best buyers. The weather was
still extremely favorable to the growth of
the fall-sown crop, but bullish news from
the northwest eaaly outweighed this in
fluence. Receipts in the northwest wera
siacK and novices Horn Minneapolis showed
a good market for cash wheat. Another
reason for the firmness at the opening was
higher prices at Liverpool. Australian
shipments showed a la-gi falling off. To
this, with continued bud reports of the
Indian wheat crop, was attributed the
strength of forelga grain markets. Dur
ing the first part of the trading: here offer
ings were rather light and on predictions
by tlio weather bureau, of .colder weather
throughout the west and southwest sellers
became still fewer. On buying due to feara
of damage by frost, prices advanced ma
terially. May selling up to 31.15, and July
to 93-H9;iHc. The market reacted con
siderably on profit taking In July. The
close, however, was firm, with May at
31.1DH. Final quotations on July were at
92c. Clearances of wheat snd flour . were
equal to 101,3ia bushels. Primary receipts
were 389,100 bushels, compared with 479,300
bushels a year Hgo. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chicago reported receipts of 276 cars,
an ilnt 273 cars last week and 336 cars a
ytsiir ago.
Higher cables and wet weather had a
bulllHli effect on tho corn market early In
Ihe day. Shorts were the best buyers.
Later the market weakened on selling, due
to an estimate of over 900 cars for Mon
day. Trading In general was rather Inac
tive. May opened WuHr higher, at 49c
to 494c, wold between 4Sic nnd 49 IftSiC
nnd closed at 4919'ic. Local receipts were
370 cars, with three of contract grade.
The oats market followed the trend of
corn. The volume of business was light.
May opened a shade lower to a shade
higher, ut 31V32e, sold between 31c and
32ii 32hic and closed at 31c Local receipts
were 224 cars.
Provisions started strong, with prlcea
somewhat higher, but the advance was
followed by considerable profit taking, re
sulting In a loss of almost all the early
gain. Higher prices for hogs was the
principal factor at the opening. A fairly
liberal receipt of hogs for Monday was
partially responsible for the profit taking.
At the close May pork was up 2Wr, at
31287V ltd was oft at 37.12H. Ribs
were a shade lower, at 36.96.

CATTLE There were a few loads of cat
tle reported this morning, but not enough
to make a good test ot the market, lor
the week receipts are ' about 2,000 head
smaller trail they were a week ago and
about 7,'av head less than for the corre
sponding weeltaf last year.
Prices on bffif steers have fluctuated
back and forth to quite an extent this
week. The week opened with a slightly
lower market on Monday. On Tuesday and
Wednesday Drlces advanced aulte ranidlv
and on Thursday and Friday they receded.
inis leaves closing prices in much the
same notches they were at the close of
last week. Trading has been fairly active
most of the time, so that each day s offer
ings have been well cared for. Good to
choice beef steers may be quoted from 36.00
to 16.76, rair to good ft.&0 to 36.00 and com
mon grades from 34 26 down.
The oow market followed much the same
course as steers, there being a weaker feel
ing on Monday, with a sharp advance on
Tuesday and Wednesday. Tne decline on
Thursday and Friday, however, was more
rapid than in the case of steers, so that
closing prices on cows and heifers are a
little lower than thev were a week asm.
In most cases a dime would probably
cover the loss, but In others It amounts to
tuny 10 to 16 cents. As Is generally the
case when prices move backward and for
ward at a rapid rate the market is rather
uneven, uo that some sales look much bet
ter than others. Good to choice grades are
quotable Irom 83.25 to 14.35. fair to arood
32.504(3.15 and common to fair 32.00.50.
Packers have bounded the bull market to
quite an extent the last two davs. which
leaves ruling prices all the way from 10 to
20 cents lower for the week. Good to
choice grades mav be quoted from 33.66 to
S4.1SJ, rair to good i.uu to X3.w and com
moner grades 82 25 to 33.00.
Veal calves are considerably lower for
the week, the better arades selling lararelv
from 35.00 to 35.60. with something very
choice a little above that.
The demand for the better grades of
etockers and feeders has been fully equal
to the supply and closing prices are Just
about where they were a week ago. The
common kinds, however, are rather neg
lected, and while they are not much. If
any, lower, they ate certainly no higher.
The cattle that are selling from 34.60 to
34.76 are mostly western hay feds and are
of very good quality. Good to choice feed
ers may be quoted all the way from 34.00 to
34.75, fair to good 33.60 to 34.00 and com
moner grades from 33.40 down. Representa

HOGS There was a moderate run of hois
In eight this morning and the market here
opened mostly 2 to 6 cents higher thun
yesterday's average. Only part of the
packers, however, were bidding those prices
and after the first round or two the mar
ket came to a standstill, with buyers of
fering no more than steady nrices with
yesterday. Salesmen all thought thev
ought to get more money and as a result
lt was some time before much business
was transacted, and in fact quite a few
hogs were in first hands at a late hour.
Light hogs sold early, largely from 35.00
down, butcher and mixed from 35.00 to
35.02 and heavies from 35.02 to 35.10.
This has been the high week so far this
season on the hog market. Prices have
moved steadily upward ever since Monday
and closing prices show a net gain over
the close of last week amounting to about
15 cents. Receipts' have been exceptionally
light, there being a decrease as compared
with last week amounting to about 16.000
head and of about 11,000 head as compared
with the same week of last year. As has
been previously mentioned through these
columns, packers are looking more at
quality and less at weight than hey were
a short time ago and the range of prices is
much narrower. Prime heavies still top
the market aa a rule, but they must be
extra fancy to do It. A prime load of me
dium weights sell to just about as good ad
vantage cs the heavies, as Is shown by
the fact that the 36.10 load today weighed
262 pounds. Representative sales:

OMAHA. March 13. 1905,
Tha wheat closed the week much bette
than It did last week. The cables were
from to Sic higher: the weather pre
dictions are for colder weather; the crop
news is less favorable: shorts are cover
lng; the cash demand Is stronger in the
northwest: the sales of flour for export
are better; the primary receipts n re
smaller; there Is some Hessian fly talk
these and other reasons have caused th
wheat to advance the last two day. The
high point for the May Friday waa 31-14
and that waa the low market for t"day
The future opened at 3114, advanced to
81.15 and closed at i.io'V 1 tie juiy ad
vanced almost as much. Cudahy brokers
sold the May this morning around 31. 16
and Armour nought from c up to c.
causing mucn 01 tne sirengtn.
The cash wheat market Is strong. Chi
cago sold 20siO bushels to millers Friday
and the spring wheat did much better
thnn for some days. Minneapolis reported
a good demand by elevator and mm In
teresta and closed with an advance for
the day of l'Ac. Duluth and St. Lou s each
advanced c In their cash markets, and
Kansas City did a little business, although
lt was perhaus the dullest of the markets
Minneapolis promises trouble ror the May
wheat shorts. The contract wheat Is said
to be all owned by the millers, who are
reported to Intend to hold It all for their
own use. Friday s close there was a differ
ence between Duluth and Minneapolis In
wheat of 60 In favor of the latter market
but no wheat was moved to Minneapolis.

fine, ine Australian wheat shipments have
fallen on, being 640,nnn bushels ngainst

tor export and are not stoped at Chicago.
The samnle tables there are llrht of srraln.
The large receipts for Monday are due to

SHEEP There was quits a run of sheep
reported her this morning, but with the
exception of two cars they were billed
through and one of the two cars to be left
here waa sold to arrive, ao there waa not
much chanca for making a teat of th mar
ket. For the week receipts have been quit
a little smaller than they were either last
week or during the correarpondlng week of
last year, but apparently there waa enough
on ale to meet the requirements of the
trade.

The Wonder of the World
Over $4,000,000
Worth of Ore Shipped In
One Short Year
Goldficld Is Simply Great"
That in th way Mr. lAtipent Tpnny Gray, writ-known In th mining
world of tha West, epitomize hl psllmatn of the mining camp that In
Ha first year hna ahlppod gold ore worth Four Millions of Iollar, breaking-
all t.'nlted states records snd rivaling the highest score made by the
Klondike daring Its palmiest days.
240 Per Cent Dividends
The Combination Mine of Goldneld, which up to March 1st had been
paying- dividends at Ihe rate of lo per cent per month on Its capitaliza
tion of $4ro,Ooo. announces an Increase of dividends to 20 per cent per
month, or 240 per cent per annum: and mining ensineers who recently
Inspected the property assert that there Is at least One Million Dollars'
worth of ore in slbL ,
A Region of Vast Wealth
As development work progresses It is apparent that Goldfleld Is destined
to become the center of a large area of gold producing territory. The
latest news from Btillfroe, 7.r miles south of Goldfteld, is the tineoverlnc
of a 100 foot ledjre that assays over One Thousnnd lollars a ton. Still
another Is rctorted on Ladd Mountain, near Bullfrog, where the pay
streak shows a value of
Five Thousand Dollars to the Ton
The Southwestern Securities Company of IOB Angeles a corporation
that makes a business of buying and selling mines recently financed a
new Company called the Golilticld-Horald, In which the first allotment
or block of stock was over-subscrlled in less than one week; and later
marketed the second allotment of shares at three times the first price
all inside of thirty days.
This Company Now Offers Goldfield-Gladiator
Shares at 5c; Par Value $1.00
The Goldfield-Gladiator Company, incorporated for $1,500,000. controls
thre claims the Washoe, Stranger nnd Tucson which are located three
miles Northeast of the city of Goldficld, r.djoinlng the Hercules Group
of 20 claims, in which Mr. Charles M. Schwab is heavily interested.
The Southwestern Securities CompaLy's resident Mining Engineer,
Mr. W. B. Koberts, is now on the ground ready to begin development
work and a rich strike may be expected in the very near future, which
will insure a rapid rise in the price of shares.
Why Opportunity Is Offered
It is the custom throughout the entire mining section of the Far West
to realize funds for development purposes by the sale of stock. A large
portion of the stock of every company usually goes to thoso who put up
the money for the purchase of the Company's property; and as most of
tbis money is raised by mining men who know the district and are In
terested in dozens of other enterprises, they are glad, at the start, to
avail themselves of this means of engaging outside capital.
History shows that the small investor is the man who, more than
any other, contributes to the upbuilding of great Mining Camps be
cause when a man outside the mining region proper puts his money Into
one of the mining properties, his interest is focused on the mining situa
tion of the State, and the task of securing big capital at short notice
for other enormous mining enterprises which come up, and aro bound
to continue to develop In a region where nature has distributed her
wealth with such prodigality, is a simpler matter.
