' Oaf AHA, Oct. T7, l!o.
The bulk of the wheat trade came olT at
the opening, prices started higher, with
offerings rather limited. Shorts were made
uneasy by the strength In cables, based on
the light shipments to Lira-pool. The same
fart rendered holders mora confident. The
northwest sold at iulcrvals, but prices held
up well. Jterelpts at Winnipeg. Minne
apolis and Duluth were nearly S.000 can
for the last week, which Is 1.60 cars less
than or tho corresponding period u year
go.
Higher cables, considerable rain through
the weit, particularly In Iowa, and light
receipts gave tho corn market Its opening
Impetus. Later, when the forecast for sev
eral days of tine Weather became known,
n easier trend developed, but persistent
buying of the May prevented any material
decline. Reports were again circulated of
dry rot, but are confined to a strip In
Illinois and western Indiana, where the
crop has never been first-class. Advices
from other sections are flattering.
Bhorts covered under The Influence of
other grains, giving the oats market a Arm
tone. Trade was light and there icemi
little possibility of any material pain. Pur
chases In the country are quite llleral and
there undoubtedly abundant supplies at sta
tions to como forward.
Primary wheat receipts were 97S.O0O bush
vis and shipments 872,000 bushels, against
receipts last year of 1.237,000 bushels and
shipments of 5tt,000 bushels. Corn recelp
were 45S.00O bushels and shipments 3w,'i0
bushels, against receipts last vear of 2M.000
bushels and shipments of 4t5.O0l) bushels.
Clearances were 134.000 bushels of wheat,
28.000 barrels of flour, Bfo.uuo bushels of
. corn, S7.O0O bushels of oats.
Liverpool closed Nd higher on wheat and
"i'V;d higher on corn.
Exporters say bids are tame and business
Is hampered by car shortage. Shippers
everywhere acting with great caution be
cause of transportation difficulties. Con
tract for. specified time shipments are
made only where the most liberal allow
ance Is permitted. New York reports ru
mors of good-sixed export business worked
over night.
A special bulletin of Modern Miller says
today: "The Indianapolis correspondent of
the Modern Miller reports damage by fly
to wheat and some counties complain of
damage to corn by dry rot."

Oats were 10110 higher. Provisions were
unchanged to 2yBfi6c lower.
Trading In the wheat pit today was more
active than at any time during the last
month and prices showed considerable
buoyancy. Local traders who have been
hammering prices for several days turned
to the other side early In the session and
scrambled energetically to cover their short
ales. Offerings were few. The. bullish
factors were smaller receipts In the north
vest, the arrivals today at Minneapolis
and Duluth being 288 cars leas than for

Sharply.
fffiW TCRK. Oct. 27. Transactions were
not large In the two hours' sessl 'ti of tho
slock market today. The msrket was under
pressure for a time during the first hour,
apparently of sftecula'.ive liquidation, but
this waa completed lefore the appearance
of the bank statement, and after the pub
lication of that buylnp: orders appeared,
especially In United States 6teel, and prices
were bid up sharply. The cloning was In
consequence strong, but only moderately
active.
Tho bank return show a reduction of
$27,34,5i0 In the deposit item, und at this
upwards of $20,000,000 was in the credit
account. How the clearing house Institu
tions were able to effect this showing was
the subject of mystified comment. The
fsct has been well known that heavy pay
ments were being made this week of matur
ing loans In London, and It has been as
sumed that borrowing wua being done In
New York with which to meet these obli
gations. It haa been reported that a single
Stock exchange house purchased $'.v.0uo,ui0
of sterling exchange bills this week for
this purpose. A possible explanation of the
failure of the foreign exchange operations
to affect the loan Item of the banks lies
In the suggestion that payments of the
Iiondon obligations were not completed In
time to figure In this week's bank state
ment, pending the arrival of securltlen
shipped from abroad, but will be thrown
over Into future statements. It Is not
believed that the week's liquidation of
securities will account for the $2o0o0
loan reduction and it Is assumed that other
Institutions, especially tho trust companies,
have taken over credits to a large extent
from the banks. Three-fourths of the total
loan reduction Is accounted for In the re
turns of three of the largest banks.
The time money market was reported
strong today, but money brokers reported
that funds were- offering again "against
sterling loans." The foreign exchange
market was weok and discounts eased In
London. The Bank of London shipped
$1,727,000 to Egypt, but a consignment of
over $5,000,000 of South .American gold In
gold arrived In England.
Total sales of bonds, pax value, $2,00O.

CATTLE There was the usual absence
ot anything like a cattle market today,
there being no cattle here of consequence
and practically nothing doing In the yaras.
ine total receipia tnis weeg snow a tail
ing off of almost one-half, due almost en
tirely to the heavy storms In the west,
which not only delayed the arrival of such
stock trains as were In transit, but pro
vented the loading ot many hundred of
cattle ready for shipment. While it la
impossible 10 speak with certainly, much
uiiger receipia are anucipatea tor tne com
ing week.
1 he market on beef cattle has been In
very satisfactory condition as viewed from
a seller's standpoint all this week. The
receipts being light in the face of a vety
good demand, strong prices have been
maintained throughout the week. While nu
very marked advance has been made in
tne market, aa prices were high in the
beginning, any chanae that lias takuri
place haa beeii In the way of improvement.
Oood coin-led steers have sold up to $.;
and ringers us high as $6.26.
ine must marked change of the week has
taken place In the cow market. The re
ceipt of last week were the heaviest of
me year, wun tne result t iat nn. ea ri.
clined rapidly, the market at the close of
the week bding quoted I0&I60 lower. With
the heavy falling off in receipts this week
conditions were exactly reversed and prices
steadily tinned up until at the close of
the present, week the market Is 2ofi4ixj
higher than the low point laat week, ihe
trade 011 both cows and heitera waa active
practically every day of the week, the
market as a whole being in a good, healthy
condition. Some very good western cows
sold as high aa $4.00.
While tne Inclement weather prevailing
uu.m., met iioai ui wie weeg would
have a natural tenrie nPV tO ke.n 1 1 1 r. 1 r r
buyers at home, there waa nevertheless a
very fair demand for stockers and feeders
throughout the week. The demand was
ejuuu iur ine oener grades that prices
were tlrong every day nnd are at the
present time a little higher, if anything
than one week ago. It will be remembered
though, that prices a week ago were high
and that no further advance was neces
sary, at least not according to buyers'
Idrtaa. Kvcn Uie fair to medium kinds
have sold very well and at the close of
the week the yards are practically cleaned
up.

HOGS The nfarket opened with buyers
picking out the better kinds of light and
butcher-weight hogs at steady prices Hogs
of that description sold largely at 16 Lw,a
6.25. with a top at $6.30. The ma. kei Z
heavy hogs Was very slow and dull and
fully 60 lower right at tho outset. Some
bids were even lower than that. Sellers
were slow about making any concessions
without a struggle and a good aharc of
the forenoon wuj consumed before a clear
ance waa effected. Heavy hogs uold vet v
largely at . I" ";. 10, as against tti.oi and
upward yesterday. The mixed and medium-weight
hugs brought gunerally about
This has been a week of light hog re
ceipts, there being a decided falling off
even compared with the small ruu of the
previous week. The week oix-ned up with
an eas.ur nutrket and prices were still
lower on Tuesday, when hogs sold close to
60 lower than at the close of the previous
week. From Tuesday on the hog con
tinued about ateady up until Friday when
there waa a slightly stronger market. Tho
decline today wipes out all the Improve
ment and more, too, so that the week
closes with the market generally 6c lower
than it was on last Saturday, although the.
lop Is the same.

8HKK1' There were no sheep hero this
morning, although six cars were o!d yes
terday for delivery today. Owing to some
hitch In loading they had not put In a'l
appearance up to a hue hour. 1 lie total
receipts for the week have been the
lightest Fine the last week In August,
only 47,066 being reported as against lo,
Inst week. It Is hardly necessary to add
that the enormous fulling off litis been
due very largely to the storm which pre
vented loading.
All advices at hand would seem to Indi
cate a moderntr- run for tho coming week
nnd sheep men generally are of the opinion
that the big western run. of shiep Is al
ready In. '1 here will undoubtedly be days
when re.-elt.ts will lie large, but the aver
age runs from now on are expected to he,
quite moderato compared to the previous
weeks.
The very light receipts this week forced
packers, very much ugalnst their will, to
pay extrsvagm tly high prices fur 'the few
sheep and lambs nvnllable. While tho
average market on fat ytuff could hardly
be quot-d more than 15ig25o higher for tho
first half of tho week, there wcre mitny
cases where utiles looked a good deal higher
than that. As a matter of fact, packers
were lorced lo buy a good deal of tho
slufT than ordinarily, with receipts llbertl
thty would not even have looked at. On
Thursday they took ofl some of the ad
vance, but prices are still very high as
cu'iipared with all eastern markets.
Receipts of feeders during the week were
so light that comparatively few country
buyers thought it worth their while to
coino In. Tho absence of buyers naturally
made the trade a little slow, but still
everything was kept well cleaned up. As
lo prices, some of the medium and com
mon klnos of lambs sold lower, while the
best feeder lambs, on the other hand, sold
higher. Feeder ewes wore also higher.
Still the general market on feeders Is being
quoted as about steady by most salesmen.
While there ore undoubtedly a good
many sheep In the west that owners would
like to market, the Impossibility of secur
ing sufficient cars Is likely to cut down
the number very materially, while in sonic
localities a good many sheep Intended for
market have been turned back by the
storms. In view of the existing conditions
sheep men are generally advising parties
desiring feeders to get their order In
at once, so as to be In a position to take
advantage of any big rtina or weak spots
that may occur.

Tha Horse Fhow Is not altogether a mat
ter o fpleasuro with tho.n Omaha, jobbera
wh.j are members of tho Horse Show asso
ciation, though at first thougflt lt would
ceeni to be. They S4y that many dealort'
from the stale havo come in for the show, -and
on this account their hotiso trade hits
bcon Incrensvd tminonssly. This lucreasa
In trade was In spite of the fact that tha
first three days of the week were unfavor
able in tho matter of weather. Dry goods
houses report a much larger buslmva than
a year ago, shoe men soy thuir trade waa
brisk, hardware sales were heavy and tha
grocery trade ran along with Its usual
heavy volume. In addition to the bou
tratUi traveling salesmen pent In liberal
orders. Collodions are reported quite satis
factory. The dry goods men are wall satisfied with
the season's trade so far. Houaa trade haa
been better than usual for a couple of
months, and thera Is no diminution in tlia
number of orders sent In by traveling sales
men. The distribution of goods extends lo
all llnr. and most of the popular lines are
In strong hands and hard to g. On ac
count of tho light supply of goods nnd tha
high price of cotton, goods of cotton make
are very strong. The Jobbers am placing
tolr ndvance orders with the manufactur
ers on bleached and brown goods. Tha
Omaha houses have not made any advance
on bleached goods lately, though a rise In
price In primary markets Is noted. Spring
udvanee order business is pood.
Last week advices received from Belfast
an Jother linen centers have announced
further advances and a hardening of tha
situation In the primary markets. Retailers
are becoming anxious to secure deliveries
of goods 011 order. Importers are urging
manufacturers to make quicker shipment
of all orders.
The Hardware) Market.
Insistent activity- is prevalent In all
hardware lines. The continuance of open
weather In the middle west has pre
vented any marked failing oft In builders'
hardware and fall goods. Retailers all
over the country are anticipating a most
active season, commencing with the first
fall of snow, and they are completing their
mi., in pi-uuarauon lor 11, ua every
hand there Is an Insatiable demand for
it every
land for
larvested
etc., and
fencing
ond the -ry.
JobJ""
cks. but
wire materials. with crops har
tanners irs ousy repairing fences, et
the demand for open and woven fi
nails, nettings, etc, is far beyond
productive capacity of the countrv. ,
bers everywhere report low stocks, but
with a car shortage in evidence, labor
scarce and raw material greatly In arrears
makers are not In position to satisfactorily
copo with the situation. Deliveries will b
slow all through the winter, aji jobbers
and retailers are advised to lay in aa
itirge Biuc-KB as ineir means ana capacity
will permit. This applies with equal force
to all forms of hardware, as te wire ma
terials and ether iron and steel products.
Palnta, Oils and Glass.
Tha glass nuuket remains tha same as
last week In ail lines. Prices are firm
and an advance Is anticipated at any time
on account of tha advance recently made
by the factories. The demand continues
good. OH remains unchanged, linseed
boiled being 88c; white raw Is Stic. Turpen
tine Is quoted at 73c. Carter's lead Is
still ic, and Southern Is 7;c. The paint
trade In some, of tiie western states haa
fallen off some on account of the recent
storms. The sales of brushes for next
spring ore the largest aver sxperienoed
by local Jobbers.
Both house and road trade; In shoes haa
born good. For goods for spring delivery
orders are coming In freely from traveling
salesmen. The wet spell brought a large
sale of rubber goods, aa many country
merchants had neglected to lay In a tup
ply and had only what was left over front
sprlrg. Leather Is firm. No advance has
been quoted lately, but a higher notch Is
likely to be reached at any time.
Coffee eased off H cent laat week. Bra
slllan stock Is arriving freely now and
there Is some prediction that the market
will soon suffer a further decline.
Sugar remains unchanged In price, as
far as refined Is concerned, though there Is
a tendency to easiness in tho raw market.
