Wheat opened higher on higher cables

With the strength In foreign markets and
some very unfavorable weather reporta

Corn opened strong and advanced rapidly,
owing to higher cables, cold and unfavor

CHICAGO GRAIX AMI PnOVIIOX
Foreign Advices Kend Wheat Prices
Is, Corn Follows.
CHICAGO, Sept. 4. Bullish advices from
Europe caused a strong wheat market here
today. At the close wheat for December
delivery was I'llic higher, corn was up
1V oats were up l74e and provisions were
from 2V4c to 10c higher.
Early reports from abroad were to the
effect that the wheat markets on the conti
nent were strong, Berlin being up sharply.
During the day the maiket there advanced
3'ic, which makes a rise In tnnt market
of 10c since the close of business last Fri
day. The strength waa due to reports of
large losses to the wheat and potato crop
In Germany and delayed harvesting In the
Black sea district. There waa much realis
ing on the early advance and a decline
of about '4c brought strong support Into
the market, the buying being good both by
shorts and on speculative account. The
demand for cash grain was strong and It
was reported that the export business In
(lour was excellent. The market closed
strong. December opened HC-fcc higher at
NHi4ic, sold between lV and $1.014 and
closed at $1.00'&l.uiH4. Clearances of wheat
and flour were equal to 32.0W bu. Primnry
receipts were 733,XO bu., as agninst 525.000
on the same day Inst yesr. Minneapolis,
Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of
466 cars, as against 298 last week and VJ u
year ago.
The corn market opened strong on cool
weather throughout the corn belt and the
prediction that It will continue. During
the day all the futures reached a new high
price level for the crop. The demand fur
cash corn and the atrength of wheat were,
next to the weather, the chl-f bullish fac
tors. Southwestern and western mnrkets
were relatively lower than Chicago, nnd It
Is believed that this fact will soon lncrenxc
I the local receipts. December opened mr'ic
higher at t''Va" .c. '"Id tut ween 6Dl.c
and 61'ic and closed at 6TV. Local recelirts
were 393 cars, with 131 of contract gia1e.
The oats market agnln made a new high
record for the crop. Offerings were small
because of the poor quality of the groin
thus far received, and shorts and bulls
bought In lively fashion thrn'iahout the
day. The opinion of a crop expert placing
the total yield at 9j.niir,oii(i bu. loss than
the government figures for August was also
a atrengthenlng factor, pecmiibtr opened
lc higher at 6.Sc. sold between 6Hc and
63Ttio4c and closed at &3c. Local receipts
were &3 cars.
Provisions showed a better tone than for
several days past. The monthly showing
of stocks of lard was be-tter than expocte.t
In view of the heavy parking done recently.
At the close October pork was THc higher
at $15.70, lard was 74)Oc hiKher at JCj.U'V
$.15 and ribs were 2'4- higher st H.70.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow: neat.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle were quite
liberal this morning, making the total for
me week considerably larger than last
week, but not quite up with the record of
a year ago. The market aa a whole,
though late In opening, was In fair condi
tion and if anything was better than was
anticipated.
Packers seemed to want a few beef
steers, and anything In the way of desir
able, cornfeds commanded stesdv nrlces.
but there was nothing very choice among
me onenngs 10 pui a lop on tne market.
On the other hand good grass beef was
anywhere from steady to aa much as 10c
higher In some cases, owing to the good
demand. Siood Montana cattle sold un in
.n.
Cows snd heifers were In good demsnd
and steady to strong as compared with
yesterdsv. It was Inte. however, before
a clearance was effected, owing In part to
the liberal offerings and In part to the late
arrival of some of the trains.
Feeders generally commanded steady
priors, and althouvh the market wss late
In opening, there was a fair movement
when the trade was once under wsv.

HOGS Hugs generally sold
rices today taking ihu market
at
steady
a hole.
A a matter of fact K was poselMe to And
quite a number of sslesmen who were
figuring their sales a little stronger thsn
yesterday. On the other hand there were
an equal number who flrured that their
hogs, especially the heavy loads, sold a lit
tle easier than yesterdsv. After ail there
waa not enough difference to talk about.
The trade was not very active at any time,
and still the most of the hogs sold In very
fair season. As was the run vesterdar. a
considerable proportion of the bogs sold

SHEEP The nfflclsl count yesterday
showed 24.0R6 sheep and lambs received.
While this was aa much as all the other
big markets put together received. It was
none too many for South Omaha, as evl-d-nced
by the fsct that practically every
thing was sold before the close. More than
that the great bulk of the receipts changed
hands by 10 o'clock In the morning. Feeder
buyers took 14,569 head, the remainder going
to packers.
This morning the receipts numbered 58
cars, but In aplte of the fact that buyers
took so many yesterday the demsnd wss
equally as good today. Everyone was out
In the yards early In the morning and the
buying commenced aa soon as the receipts
were In the bam. ready to be shown. As
waa the case yetsersdy, a good proportion
of the arrivals changed hands by 10 o'clock
In the morning, the market w-lng very
active at good steady to strong prices. As
has ben the case all the week, feeder
buyers took the lead and they picked up
the offerings as fsst as they could be
shown. -
The offerings of fat sheep and lambs were
comparatively light, but at the same time
there waa a very decent buying demand,
and the market was generally steady with
yesterday at satisfactory prices.

NEW TORK. Sept. 4 The reaction T
prices of stoiks today was regsrded ss be
ing due for the most part to the naturs;
running out of the force towerd ,eovery
which has been operative for more than f
week now. but besides the normal iesc
ttonary tendency due to technical conditions
there whs some revival of positive factors
of depression. These had to do m Uy
with phases nf the antl-corporstlon agita
tion. The Incidents of most inflii -me in re
awakening the aubject were the apparent
obstacles raised ngalnst the granting ol
Immunity to the Chicago A Alton for the
testimony need In convicting the Stsndsrd
OH company of rebating and the reopening
of the lirsrings In the local traction Inquiry
which Is being conducted by the public
service commission. Another source of un
easiness wss the doubt whether the copper
market would settle Into a stable condition
at the lower price level established by y s
terday's cut. There seemed to be mora
assurance on thla head abroad than In thlg
country and copper securities there Im
proved In contrast with their conspicuous
place In the declining tendency here. Amer
ican Smelting did not escape the Influence
of the weakness In this group In spite of
the verification In the published annual re
port of yesterday's Intimation nf the fav
oiable character of the results shown from
the years operations.
The reported embarrassment of t,he Union
Iron Steel company had a discouraging
effect on sentiment.
The day s money market showed addi
tional evidence of th. Settermcnt of condi
tions there In the further yielding of time
loan rates. The el, sip upturn In what
was not disregarded In the stock market,
although It was attributed principally to
foreign crop conditions. The profit taking
towards the end of the day by liesrs re
duced the declines to some extept, but the
closing tone was easy.
Bonos were firm. Total sales, par value,
$1,024,000. United Slates 4s registered de
