GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET Wheat Still on Toboggan, Decliniie FiTe liihti of Cent HEAVY LIQUIDATION TH- MAIN CAUSE That There Is No Greater Hrro ta Selling; la Dae ta Cover la by Short Corn Market Drag-glna:. OMAHA, January t, 1907. Th liquidation In wheat wn heavy and price declined So of a cent. That the rnarket did not Hhow more effect of the heavy telling t due to the cover.ng of none, foreign markets were weak be cause of large offerings from Argentina. The Russian situation, generally favorable, remains unchanged. There Is some talk of a demand for flour from China and Japan. Corn acta weak, but closed unchanged, refusing: to sympathise to any extent with wheat. Receipts were larger than lust year, but cash prices held steady. Primary wheat receipts were ts,000 bush Is and shipments 324.UU0 bushels, against receipts last year of 644.000 bushels and shipments of 14.000 bushels Corn receipts were 1,068,000 bushels and shipments Ml.imo bushels, against receipts last year of KSs.OOK bushels and shipments of 64ti,O)i0 bushels. Clearances were 323,000 bushel of wheat, 140.44; bushels of corn, 2.750 bushels of oats and flour and wheat equal to 360,000 bushels. Liverpool closed M,Sirti lower en wheat and unchanged on corn. Bays the price Current todsy: "Normal Winter thus far; growing wheat maintain ing excellent condition; corn slow In drying out; live stock wintering well. Packing. 490.000, against 610.000 last year." A cable came from Buenos Ay res saying: "Damage to wheat less than at first re ported, quantity large, quality good com pared to last year. Bhows Inctease of 10 per cent." The shrinkage In the Minneapolis flour output last week was 115.000 barrels, as es timated by the Northwestern Miller. With Christmas falling on Tuesdsy all the mills were Idle for two days. The quantity of flour turned out was 190,877 barrels, sga-lnst 1 12.080 In 1906 and 13,160 In 1904. This week the mills are working on n normal banla and a heavy gain In the output Is certain. Minneapolis mills had a dull trade In flour, and shipping directions came In slowly on old business. An exception to the rule was one Minneapolis mill, which made good sales. Export business was Impossi ble with most mills. However, a few sold considerable patent In United Kingdom markets.

Throughout the day offerings were very heavy, many local and outside longs being active on the selling side.

The market closed decidedly weak, with prices close to the lowest fxilnt of the day. May opened He. to H : V lower, at 76Hc to litf Hc, sold at 76Sc, and then declined to 75 Ji75c.

Minneapolis, It luth and Chicago reported receipts of 613 cars, agulnst 638 cars last week and 433 cars one year ago. Trading 111 corn was quiet and trading was easy as a result or selling by cieh houses, which was based on the prediction of a cold wave throughout the corn belt. ' The drop In temperature. It was claimed, will facilitate the crop movement and also aid In the curing of the new crop. The market closed steady.

HARRIMAN ISSUES UNDER PRESSURE List, as a Whole, Is ltharglo aad Market Is Made l a Largely of ladlvldaal Movements Mosey la Easier. NEW YORK. Jan. $ The stock market of today failed to reflect any pronounoed views on the speculative outiooa. xne operations were largely In the hands of professional traders and the movement of prices indicated that they shifted tneir po sition from time to time from one side to the othsr In the effort to scalp a profit. There was some evidence of a supply of a numoer or prominent stocks ana in omen there was enouch damsnd to form a re sistance when depression was prevailing elsewhere but there was In the first case little pressure to dispose of holdings and on the other hand the demand waa so languid as to cause only a sluggish move ment of prices. The Harrlman stocks were still under some special pressure and this was naturally attributed to the coming In vestigation of ths relations between these properties by th Interstate Commerce commission which I to begin In New York tomorrow. Reports of an Indisposition of the president of th company may have affected the stocks. Delaware A Hudson fell away sharply In spite of the Increase In the dividend rato which was not, how ever, as large as holders have contended ror. Amalgamated Copper waa a promi nent Instance of strength due to current reports of an Intended further Increase In the dividend rate. Atchison was helped by reports of the same character. The market was made up almost entirely of Individual movements of this kind due to special causes. The list as a whole was lethargic and save no aim of the working of any reinvestment demand uch aa often iouows the distribution ot profits Vat thi time of the year. The money market continued to relax as It was expected It would do after the first of the year. The maximum early rate for call loans was 14 per cent compared with 20 per cent yesterday and the rats got down to 6 per cent comparatively early In th day. while 2H per cent was the lowest point loucnea. Another day s large clearances ai mo clearing house showed the rapid progress of the annual settlements althouah the settlement was adjusted evidently to cover two days' Instead of one, so that me clearings ror the first business day or the new year are nowhere near the record touched last year, although the total of tha settlement effected Is much larger. Ths sharp reaction from the high figures of yesterday in the foreign exchange market Indicates that the urgent demand for re mittances had been met. All three of th great foreign banks made weekly renorts louay ana ail mree snowed tne errects of the great year-end strain, especially the Imoeiial bank of Germajw. for which tho decrease In cash for the week amounted to $17.6,000, the loan expansion $37.445 000 no me increase in note issues 37.8K,w. There was some recovery In the discount rate In Berlin from the drop of yesterday iui ine aiscoum rate in inaon continued to recede. Notwithstanding the nrnmnl relaxation here from the stringency of the December monev market It ta mnM. ered doubtful whether the recession In money rates win extend to actual ease. Reports of railroad net earnlnra for Nn. vember received today showed the uniform growtn in operating expenses with corre sponding effect In the Dronortlon of net earnings, some railroads showing an ap preciable decrease In net earnings com pared with last year.

The cold and snappy weather this morn ing seemed to put more life Into the mar ket and there was a decidedly better feel ing to th trads In beef steers, although prices were very little changed. Buyer acted more aa If they wanted the cattle and they were out In fair season looking for desirable killers. While late trains de layed the trade very much, the cattle sold about as fast as could be expected and at good, steady prices. There was one bunch of steers good enough to bring $0.00, the best price paid In several days. Cows and neiters were aiso in pretty good demand, at leant the desirable kinds, and the movement was abuul aa active a It could be with trains coming In all the forenoon. While the market could hardly be quoted better than steady, th! feeling wss a little better than yesterday. Stockers and feeders were scare again this morning and the few here commanded good, strong prices. Kepresentatlve sales: BEEF STEERS. Ho. At. Pr No. At.
