The car situation throughout the country
has reached an acute stage. Every west
ern road In short of cars and snippers are
complaining. The roads have anywhere
from to 1.500 more cars than last year,
but the traffic Is largor than ever was
known at this season. With the millions of
bushels of corn and oats that have been
old for December and later export there
Is a prospect of losses for western ship
pers and seaboard exporters.

Des Moines wired: "Thr. rush of oats
from this state eastward Is over. We are
getting Mitjlo more than Chicago prices to
shin south. Oats are going from western
Iowa to Missouri river points for shipment
ior export via tne guir. "
Rankin of Chicago says about oats: "Ex
port demand for oats in Chicago Is phe
nomenal, with the bulk of the recent bids
for shipment bv the middle of next month.
Shippers, however, were unable to get the
cars. There is not a shipping house in the
traae nere mat nas not already so mucn
sold that It Is timid about selling more.
The oats are held In elevators awaiting the
cars, thus making the total stock In private
elevators look large. The train capacity
from Kansas soulh to the gulf could be
quadrupled without trouble It rolling stock
and motive power were available. Bales of
240,000 bushels of oats were made Monday
and reported yesterday for export from
Iowa points by way of the gulf. Oat stocks
In all positions In Chicago are 11.670,0o0
bushels, the largest on record, exceeding
the previous high mark of last year by

CHICAOO. Oct. IB. Damage by locusts to
the Argentina wheat crop was one of the
main factors creating a strong market for
wheal here today. Wet weather In the
United States was another factor. At the
Close wheat for December delivery was
Sc. Oats show a gain of o. Corn a
provisions are practically unchanged.
The wheat market opened firm, Iecember
being up a shade to 'ul4o at Mfi7r.
General rains over a large part of the
United Stafs formed the chief source of
firmness. During the first half hour the
market experienced an easier tone, owing
tn selling by commission houses and by the
leading long. For December the lowest
point of the day was reached at 8Ko. Upon
withdrawal of offerings from the bull leader
the market quickly recovered its early firm
ness and with persistent buying by snorts
firmness was supplanted by decided
strength. The demand from shorts was
largely the outcome of a report from Ho-
sarlo claiming that locusts are making
serious Inroads In the crops In the province
of Santa Fe. Strength of cash Vheat In the
northwest helped to stimulate demand for
options here. Late In the session that mar
ket was further strengthened by a report to
the effect that famine Is threatened in
parts of India on account or drouth. Tne
highest point of the sec-ion for December
was touched at 8e. The market closed
strong, with December st 87flS7Ic. Clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to 319.
000 bushels. Primary receipts were l.OKK.000
bushels, against 1,114,000 bushels a year ago.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago reported
receipts of 619 cars, against 606 cars last
week and 776 a year ago.
The corn market was firm throughout tne
entire session. Cold, wet weather, light re
ceipts and a good export demand were In
fluences contributing to the strength. A
leading bull was an active buyer, com
mission houses also bought freely. The
market closed firm. December opened un
changed to a shade higher at 44c to 44
44e, sold up to 46c ana ciosea at m4hwc.
Local receipts were 128 cars, with 41 of con
tract grade.
Excellent export and shipping demand
continued to be the chief Influences In the
oats market. Sentiment In the pit was
quite bullish. A leading long was an active
Surchaser. December opened unchanged at
le, sold up to 29o and closed at 29c.
Local receipts were 275 cars.
Provisions were a trine easier on m on

OMAHA, Oct. 18, 1906.
The pressure continues over the south
west and a trough, of relatively low pres'
sure extends from the upper lake region
southwest over the middle Mississippi val
ley. An area of high pressure overlies the
northwest and Is moving down over the
Missouri valley. This high Is accompanied
oy very cold weatner in the extreme north
west and has caused a decided drop In
temperature over the country lying be
tween the Mississippi river and the Rocky
mountains. The weather Is much warmer

southern states. It continues unsettled In

NEW YORK, Oct. 18, Business decreased
at the Stock exchange today, although It
did not fall back to the low level of Mon
day. The market continued to show a
tendency to Immobility or to vary narrow
fluctuations with a disposition to return
10 a given level, as there was some early
pressure against the market today the de
clining tendency was contested by push
ing up a selected list of stocks.
American Locomotive was the feature
of the day and the Indifference of the
general market to so conspicuous a feature
made a striking demonstration of the im-
passlveness of the speculation. This stock
has engendered a Considerable advance of
late, but Its movement came to a stop yes-
tenlay with the announcement of rhina
in the directorate. Renewed Importance
seemed to be attached to these changes
today which eliminated a conspicuous stock
market element from the board by the
substitution of Oeneral Electric and United
States Steel stocks. There was abundant
news also of the enormous requirements
of railroads for locomotives and. In fact,
all kinds of equipment. With occasional
setbacks Locomotive made successive
Jumps on very heavy absorption, the ex
treme advance reaching 6 points. Other
railroad equipment stocks and the electrical
Industrials showed moderate sympathy.
Reading also made a show of strength at
one time In the first resistance to the de
pression and current reports of further
extensive combination of anthracite Inter
ests were used to help the stock. The
supporting points In the market were of
moderate effect In contesting the general
sagging tendency.
The (V.gproval of several of the day's
rumors pointed to operations by a bear
element in the trading. These Included re
ports of the illness of J. Plerpont Morgan
and of financial difficulties caused by the
collapse of Chicago Subway stocks. The
reports were sufficiently definite to call for
publlo repudiations. There was a reaction
In discounts In Berlin and an advance In
sterling exchange at Paris and the ques
tion of a further decrease In the Hank of
England discount rate tomorrow was left
open. The bank has succeeded In arrest
ing the demand upon London for gold by
raising the price of the metal and securing
open market supplies for Its own vaults.
This being the case the threatened rise In
the bank rate may be avoided. Foreign ex
change made a further notable advance
In the market, serving to strengthen the
supposition that Japanese funds In New
York were In course of remittance to Lon
don. The statement of this country's for
eign trade for September, however, threw
light on the previous strength of foreign
exchange. The value of Imports rose more
than $18,000,0(0 over the preceding Septem
ber to $102,138,031, a record for a month's
Imports. At the same time the value of
exports Increased less than $2,000,000, leav
ing the excess value of exports of only
$33,867,791, while the trade balance In
our favor for September of last year
amounted to over $60,000,000. There were
no changes of Importance In the local
money market, but New York exchange at
Chicago slipped back to paT after having
ruled at a premium for several days. The
announcement of the closing of a national
bank In Allegheny made a depression on
sentiment. The closing was easy with the
general list at about the lowest.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value. $3,246,000. United States bonds were

The early market averaged up Just about
steady with yesterday. Some of the best
hogs sold st prices that looked If anything
a little stronger, as high ss $6 o being paM
for choice, light butcher weights, as
against a top yesterday of $5 26. On the
other hand, the strong sales were offset by
others thst looked easier, so that the aver
age, as noted above, was no more than
steady. While the early market was not
what might be called active, the movement
was fair, so that the most of the seasonable
arrivals changed hands In fair season. As
will be noted from the sales, the most of
the hogs sold inside the range of lo.OO'tf'

CATTLE Receipts this morning were
only moderate, a few over 200 cars being re
ported In the yards, which was consider
ably smaller than a week ago. For the
three days, however, the receipts have
been Just about the same as for the corre
sponding period of last week. As was the
case yesterday, a very considerable pro
portion of all the cattle here consisted of
feeders.
Range beef steers were far from being
plentiful, there being only a moderate
sprinkling of cattle good enough for killers.
There were a few loads of Corn-fed steers,
tn fact more than there have been here for
some days ot late, and there were among
them some pretty decent cattle. There was
fair demand on tne part 01 local packers
and the market was Just about steady with
yesterday. The trade, nowever, was de
layed by the late arrival of several trains,
so that It was well along toward midday
bofore very much was done toward effect
ing a clearance.
Cows and neirers were not in very large
supply, while there was a good demand.
The result was that good fat cows and
heifers were generally a little stronger than
yesterday and were free sellers. The com
mon and medium tunas soia at juri aoout
steady prices. The trade as a whole was
In very fair condition as viewed from a
seller's standpoint.
There were a good many stockers and
feeders in the yards, but there was also a
very fair demand on the part of local oper
ators and speculators. The general market
on feeders was just about steady, but at
the same time some of the best heavy
cattle, which wore sought after, com
manded good, strong prices, and the same
was true of yearlings of good quality.

SHEEP Rncelnta rllrl not look very lara
this morning, only about fifty cars being
reported In the yards. The fact is they
have not looked very large any day this
week so far, but still the total for the
three days amounts to about 1W cars, as
against 129 for the corresponding days of
last week. Two weeks ago there arrived
at the yards during the first half of the
week 236 cars. B01110 of the sheep trains ar
rived at the yards in fair season this morn
ing, but a considerable proportion of the
receipts did not put In an appearance until
late In the forenoon.
The market this morning was In a good
healthy condition and entirely In sellers'
favor. Packers were again anxious for
supplies and anything in the way of de
alt able killers was fully steady with yes
terday. In some cases stuff that Just hap-
Sened to suit the requltements of buyers
rought prices that looked a little higher.
nanise ewes soid as nign ss o.w, wmcn
Is the top price paid so far this season
for that kind of stock. Yearlings brought
$5.75 and other stuff In proportion. The
fact Is desirable kinds of fat sheep nave
been tending upward this week and are
now bringing quite a Ilttlo more money
than at the clone of last week.
The supply of feeders In the yards yes-
terdsy was practically cleaned up before
the close of the market last night, so
hat with only a moderate run this morn
ing the market was In a good, healthy
condition. There was a fair demand both
rom the country and from local buyers, so
that the market remained Just about
teady with yesterday.
