Although the flour trade at Minneapolis is expected to bo more than moderate, there Is no indication of it yet and the wheat pouring Into the northwest markets will have to rind an outlet or de cline and effect prices at other market. Minneapolis had 776 cars todav. Heavy movement of the Canadian crop and limited storage room causes Canadian wheat to sell abroad for what the market offers.

Provisions are practically unchanged. In the wheat pit at the start the Decem ber option wss shade lower to Sa'Vc higher at M-MV- Continued rain In the northwest Induced general buying dur ing me nrst irnur. As a result the market was quite firm, December touching MHc Weekly statistics, however, were extremely bearish. Probably the most Important fea ture was the heavy shipment of wheat dur ing the past week from Rlark rwirts the total movement from that locality being 0.J28.IP0O bu. ss against . 192, 009 bu. the cor responding time last veer. Despite unfav orable weather conditions receipts today at m miit npiMm ana l'uiutn were i.ijfi cars, against 971 cars a year ago.

MONEY MARKET CONTINUES EASIER New York F.sehanae Rise to Par at Chicago, Indicating- a Lesaea. In Demand for Carreney la the laterlor. NEW YORK, Sent. 18. The advancing tendency of prices which held through last week was continued In today'e stock mar ket The movement did not persist In full vigor throuKhout the day as It was Inter rupted by occasional halts and re-actlons, but there was no actual reversal of the course of prices. The dny was without special Incident, but advices fmm all quarters were corro borative of the extraordinary prosperity prevailing in all parts of the country and in alt lines of business. The money mar ket continued to work closer, but In so grsdual'a way as to causa little actual disturbance of rates and as to offer no ef fective obstacle to the operation of the fao tors of strength In the general situation. Immediate conditions In the money mar ket showed some relaxation, however, to day. The sub-treasury's withdrawal from the market was less than In the correspond ing period of last week and New York exchange at Chicago rose to par, Indicating the lessened demand upon New York from the Interior. At the same time sterling exchange fell away to a lower level and local banking houses were In active nego tiation to secure In the open market In London some part of the Incoming supplies of gold. These negotiations were r L s"'-- cessful as the arrival of gold from Inn was reserved against India currency. The price of gold was marked up In the London market and discounts there and In Berlin hardened an additional fraction. The Ixm don market Is looking forward to further rise in the Hank of England rate and specu lative operations there were consequently restrained. At one time during the day It was definitely reported at the Stock ex change that more gold had been secured In London for shipment for New York. The momentary strengthening effect on stocks necessarily gave place to some reselling when tre rumor was found to be Incorrect. The unbridled manner of the first spurt In Reading had a disturbing effect on specu lation. The movement In Canadian Pacllla was regarded as coming from the same sources as that In Reading. Its sympa thetic effect on Its subsidiary stock. Min neapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste Marie was aided by the latter s annual report. Call money was not held at the maximum level of Friday, but ruled above last week's average level. Sterling exchange moved up from the low level In the afternoon.

The receipts were some sixty-three cars lighter than last Monday and Some twenty eight cars lighter than the corresponding day last year. The general quality of the cattle was good. Beef steers constituted the big end of the receipts today and conditions favored sell ing Interests. There was a fair sprinkling of native cattle here and the market on them was fully steady. They are getting scarcer and scarcer, but common grades are hard to sell. The western beef steer offered were in good shape and there was a good call for them from all sources. Trad ing was fairly active and the stuff was picked up right along. The market on western beef was fully steady and the de mand was equal to the supply. There was a very small supply of cows and heifers on sale, hardly enough to arouse much Interest. There was a good, strong feeling, however, and a good call for she stun, so that a good market resulted and the stuff was cleaned up early. Some of the commoner grades were only about steady, but the general market could best be quoted stronger. Bulls, veal calves and stags were In fairly good demand at Just about steady prices. There was onlv a moderate run of stock ers and feeders here snd there was a good, strong demand both from yard traders and country buyers. Good heavy, fleshy feeders ruled stronger, but the other grades were very hard to move, buyers being extremely Indifferent on them. Representative sals: BEEF 8TEERS. No. v. Pr. Kg. at.

The bulk of the hogs sold at .- 6.3iJv with several loads at $5 35. while tops reached 16 40. After the more urgent orders were filled the trade on heavy hogs eased off aomewhat.

HITCHCOCK CASE BEFORE JURY World-llernld's Attempt to Prerent Dee'a Claim Is Reins Gone Over, Judge Redlck and a Jury are engaged In trying the case wherein the World Publish ing company Is trying to prevent The Bea from recovering the sum of 312.018, due for the publication of the scavenger tax sale notice during July and August, 1904. The ense is up on appeal by The Bee Publishing company from the action of the old Board of County Commissioners In disallowing the claim on account of the World Herald's protest. A Jury was secured within an hour, but the case threatens to drag through several days because of the line of campaign the World-Herald'a attorney appears to have laid out. He objects to everything, seeming to see In every move of Mr. Connell for the appellant a big chance to lose the case. Official documents even are not acceptable to the World-Herald lawyer and at one point he went to the extreme of saying that the court was presuming In allowing oertaln questions to be asked. Judge Red lck stopped that play right quick and with some sharpne: . County Treasurer Fink was the only wit ness examined and he Is still to finish his testimony on direct examination. He told of getting extra clerks from the county board In the spring for the purpose of pre paring the Hat, and also how the board had neglected to designate a paper In which to publish the same. This neglect continued up to the very last hour of the limit al lowed for the filing ot the petition, and he then, as empowered by the law. (lied the petition. Next morning, July 2, he desig nated Tho Evening Bee as the papr nJ the designation was accepted In formal manner. The copy was at once taken In hand and the work was done aa contem plated by the law. Afterward the World Herald stepped In and protested, askjng for the sum of flO.OOO as "the profits of the work," In the language of Us protest. Ite attorney Is also setting up that the county board acted In time and did designate the democratic orgun. Mr. Fink made Investi gation and found out the board had not acted. It was only after the members learned of The Bee designation by the county treasurer that the three democratic. members got together and passed a resolu tion. Notice of this action was not re ceived by Mr. Fink until after he had acted and delivered the "copy" to The Bee. The case will continue Tuesday morning. but Judge Redlck Intimated he will excuse the Jury at noon, so they can vote at the primaries. All the remaining Jurymen on the panel have been excused until Wednes day morning. BUILDING STILL GOING ON Tvent-One-Thonsnnd-Dollar RaMaV derice by Mrs. Ilarbaek largest New Oaa. Mrs. J. A.

GAS FIGHT ISSUE IN SPRING Mlcharlaen Thinks That la tho Plaa of Cleveland Parties aad Local Frleads. In the opinion of Councilman Nicholson the Cleveland gas syndicate's represen tatives, who left Omaha Saturday, have not given up the Idea of getting a franchise In Omaha, but Intend to come back and make another effort "My Impression Is they Intend to make the matter an Issue In the spring muni cipal campaign." said the councilman from the Fourth. "Personally I think It would be a good Issue. It would give the people a chance to express themselves about $1 gas and the franchise It is necessary to grant to get It. Opportunities will be presented to get the Issue squarely before the people, and If they are favorable they can elect men to the council to carry out their wishes. "For the present I think the $1 gas franchise matter is a dead one " EDWARDS-WOOD CO. (Incorporated) 1 Mala OaTleoi Fifth aad Roberts Streets, T. PAIL, Mi:. Dealers la Stocks, Grain.
