OMAHA SHORTS NOW HAVE A' PROFIT
Armour Takes Over Gates Deal aad
Damps Wheat May Considered
Worth l.lltle Premium
Over July.
OMAHA. April 22, 1905.
What has happened to May whaet Is
enough. The slump of Joday took the op
tion uown U.ViC Irom the opening, me loss
made bv tlio Alav from tne limn point of
the weeK, reached last Tuesday, $1,164, was
l,c and from the high point oi tne aeai,
reachea eariy In March, a drop ot
211 cents. 1 he break In wneat lias brought
out or cover a gmd deal oi snort. wnei
In Omaha. This wheat was sold last year
at from il up and has been earned through
me winter In tne tace oi a neavy iuiw.
J. E. Von Dorn had a good short line he put
out six months ago at 1.09 and on which he
stood to mane a Heavy loss until Thursday,
wnen tne wneat got aown to si.wn,
which, for the first time, he had a profit.
Other Omaha men were In the same condi
tion, and the end of the Gates deal was
greeted here with smiles
The May opened this morning at 11.09,
broke to $1.02, rallied to $1.04 and from that
point steadily declined to 9Hc shortly be
fore the close. The market closed at 11, and
opinion Is divided as to whether there will
be a rurther decline Monday or wnewier
rally will follow the heavy break, which Is
the largest for a day in several years.
The July did not share In the weakness of
the nearby option. The market ranged
between H,c and 86c, against 87o and
c Thursday. The general local senti
ment is that the May wheat Is wortfi' but
little premium over the July and that the
murket, freed from any manipulation,
should stand somewhere between 90c and
95c.
Valentine continues to be the most active
figure In the market and bought the May
this morning and was the only steadying
force. He his not bought any July per
sonally since the July Bold at WyOho
crowd was afraid of Valentine and would
not stay short. Logan sold over 1,UU0.0K)
bushels of May this morning. The corn
market was surprisingly little affected and
there was a fair buying demand. The May
tt.ua iinehrmo-pd from Thursday. That the
Armour house has taken over the Gates
deal is uncontested. There Is some idea
now that the heavy selling by this house
during the lust three weeks, which was
supposed to be In a campaign against the
eastern bulls, was In reality a liquidation
of their long line. Gates Is said to have
grown tired of the deal and to have wished
in net not nf it hecHuse of the death of
his father. As to what the Armour house
will do Is a question. It Is conceaea uun
unmafhlii HUe thlrlv HflVI Will be nCCCS-
sary to finish the deal. Valentine, Is the
moat mystifying of traders and It has been
his custom In marketing a long line to
keep everybody guessing right up to the
end as to what his game is.

CHICAGO (iRIM ASI) PROYIMO
Featarea of the Tradlnsr and Closing
Prices on Hoard of Trade.
CHICAGO. April 22 Wheat for May de
livery sold here today at 9-c a bushel,
a sheer decline of llc from the closlag
quotations of Thursday, the last previous
session of the Board of Trade. Excitement
seldom paralleled accompanied the sensa
tional slump. The cause of the break was
an apparent abandonment of the supposed
gignntic effort of John W. Ontes and other
Wall street notables to corner trade In
May wheat. Today, as on Thursday, mil
lions of bushels of May wheat were thrown
on the market. As a result the price of
the May option started downward Instantly
when the gong sourded for the beginning
of business. The wild downward plunge
continued throughout the day with the ex
ception of one or two slight rallies. Dur
ing the last few moments of trading one
of the few upturns occurred and the final
figure was $1 a bushel. Under active sup
port from Armour A Co. the July option
in wneat experienced only a small loss, the
net decline for the day being q. Corn,
oats and . provisions were wholly undis
turbed by the flurry, closing prices today
being practically identical with the latest
quotations of Thursdny.
It seemed to most traders to be evident
from the start that the Gates coterie had
withdrawn support from May wheat.
Opening Quotations on May were off lc to
2c at $Uai.09: July was' a shade lower
to Hc higher at 87Vy7c. Within five
minutes May sold down to $1.07. From all
sides May wheat was offered for sale, but
the only buyers appeared to be trades with
spilt lines to cover. Houses that have here
tofore been presumably operating for the
so-called Wall street crowd were heavy
sellers today from the outset and as trad
ing progressed the offerings from such
quarters Increased In volume. At the same
time the July ofUInn was in active demand
from Armour. This condition of affairs
was coincident with a report that re p re
re n tat Ives of Gates and Armour at a se
cret meeting had made a Joint agreement
to liquidate May holdings nncT switch into
the July option,- thus forming a basis for
a deal in July wheat by means of which
any possible loss from the attempted
"Squeeze" In May might be offset. With
startling rapidity the price of May kept
tumbling headlong, giving hardly so much
as breathing time to the traders who had
been caught .on the wrong aide of the
market. Scenes in the pit were among the
wildest on the floor, traders shouting them
selves frantic In an effort to make or break
prices. The lowest point of the day was
reached a few minutes before the close, the
price touching 98Vfcc, a clean drop of 114c
from Thursday's' final quotations. The
clang of the bell for the close of business,
however, caught the market at the tra
ditionally magic Ideal of $1 a bushel.
While May was experiencing such a down
ward whirl the price of later deliveries
dropped only a trifle, July selling oft to
SirSc In addition to the slump in May,
predictions of rain throughout the whent
belt had a weakening influence on the July
option. The close for July was firm at
86$i86c, Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 104. Sort bushels. Primary re
ceipts were 654,000 bushels, compared with
227.600 a year ago. Minneapolis, Duluth
and Chlcneo reported receipts of 303 cars,
against 2.'9 cars last week and 96 cars a
year ago.
The extraordinary developments In the
wheat pit reduced trading In the corn mar
ket to a minimum. Indeed, the corn tilt
was almost deserted. Notwithstanding th
severe slump In May wneat, sentiment
among the few traders remaining In the
corn market was quite bullish. As a result
quotations for corn held relatively firm
throughout the day. July opened un
changed to a shade higher at 47V&4734C to
4ic, sold ort to 4ic and closed at 4740,
Local receipts were 323 cars with 21 of con
tract grade.
Oats, like corn, held firm, possibly for
lack of selling pressure. The demoralisa
tion of the wheat market had little In
fluence. Shorts were the best buyers of
the day. July opened a shade hieher at
2!'4c, Bold between 29'ac and 29c to 294
:nsgc anu ciosea at zac. i.ocai receipts
were 150 cars. ,
A 10-ccnt advance In the price of live
hogs had a steadying Influence on provi
slons. Trading was very quiet. At the
close July pork was off a shade at $12.72WSp
12.75. I.ard was up a shade at $7.35. Ribs
were unchanged at $7,174.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
148 cars; corn, 221 cars; oats, 111 cars; hogs,
29.000 head. i

Dewey. Original. Writ of mandamus al

ing.
1. The statute (see. 6774. Cobbey"s Anno
tated statutes, 1903) provides that a candi
date for public omce may decline the nomi
nation of a political convention "at least
twelve days before the election," and that
a nomination to fill the Vacancy so oc
casioned must 1 filed eight days before the
election. The purpose is to allow four days
for the proper authorities to make the sec
ond nomination. If all parties interested
agree to the change of candidates, and the
declination of the first nominee and tha
nomination of his successor are both filed
eight days before the election. It Is a com
pliance with the statute, and the name of
the second nominee should be placed upon
tne nanots.
2. In the absence of a special orovislon In
the election laws the general statute applies
and the eight days' time should be com
puted by excluding the day of filing the
certificate of nomination and including the
day of election.

CATTLE Receipts for the week de.
creased about 2,o00 had from last and
are nearly 4.000 head less than for the
corresponding period a year ago. The first
half of the .week shows largely increased
supplies, but the latter half shows a big
decrease, owing to Xhe bud bJuiiid In
prices.
A resume or the trade in beef steers
the past week finds the market the most
unsatisfactory to sellers it has been In
some time. The rapid advance up to this
week caused an neuve movement and the
result was that all markets were over
loaded at the start and prices broke 20c
to JOc-Wlth a rapid decrease In the'run
a reaction set In, and today a portion
of that loss has been recovered, but prices
are still 16c to 20c off from the high polnt-
a wek ago. tne situation is niucn Im
proved today over ednesday, the low
time, and the market all around appears
In much better shape.
Cows and heifers, and. In fact, all grades
of butcher stock went comparatively lower
in sympathy with beef steers. Early In
the week values declined 20c to 30c, hut
later trade improved considerably and
closlhg figures are not over 10c to 20c under
last week's basis. A stronger tone pre
vails today and the general trade Is again
more satisfactory.
There wis little doing In the feeder di
vision the latter half of the past week.
The country demand-was curtailed, as la
usually the case at this Benson when farm
ers arc buny opening their spring work,
besides the break in fat stuff exerted a
verv bearish Influence In the stock cattle
trade. Good fleshy Rrades were In fair
request, but ordinary to fair stockers and
feeders were slow sellers, even at prices
16c to 26u off from a wek ago.

HOGS Fair competition, coupled with
moderate receipts, enabled sellers to force
prices a little higher again this morning,
so that tho loss made earlier in the week
was more than regained. In fact, the
advance this .nornlng puts the general
market at the highest point reached this
year, although tops are no higher. It
was strictly a one-price market, as all
droves cost right around $5.34, or a strong
240 higher than yesterday. Quality and
weights were not materially considered, as
all grades and weights sold practically at
the one price. The movement was brisk
and a clearance was made In short order
after the trade was once under way.

SHEEP -n taper there was a large run
here today, twenty cars being reported in.
but aside from two cars direct to a packer
they were all consigned to eastern points
and were stopped here for feed ana rest
without any Idea of their being Bold
As noted yesterday, the market this
week Is safely 15626o lower on shorn sheep
and lajnbs than It was last week. Com
mon to medium kinds of wooled Sheep and
jambs have also suffered about the same
amount of a decline. Owing to the high
price of wool packers make more differ
ence than usual In favor of the wooled
sheep and lambs, and they have not
shown ss much decline as shorn stuff.
The best grade of wooled sheep and lambs
are anywhere from a little easier to 15c
lower for the week,
Owing to the lateness of .the season
feeder Duyers are not such keen buyers
and that is partly tne reason tor tne de
cllne noted above on the common to me
dium grades.
The decline In the market has been gen
eral this week at all selling points, Chi
cago papers cBtMay quoting the sheep
market there as generally about 25c lower
