GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Expected Bulge Headed Off by Disapr
pointing Cables.
SETBACK THEN COMES ALONG
Liberal World Shipments' " for the)
Week Cause Traders ta Take
Profits and Sell Lens;
Holdings.
OMAHA. Feb. S, 191S,
The expected bulge was headed off by
disappointing cables, and a set back came.
Liberal world's shipments for the week
caused traders to take profits and the sale
of long holdings becme the feature.
Wheat worked off easy soon after the
opening. Heavy cables caused good selling
and the strength shown at Winnipeg was
the only sustaining feature. Considerable
long wheat van put on the market later
and waa not well taken. Values were easy
at the close. May wheat opened at 86V:
and closed at 94Vc.
Corn was soft with wheat and sold off on
general selling by long holders and the pit
crowd. There was no ginger to the buy
ing side and the tone was not strong nuar
the close. May option opened at 66V and
closed at &i;aC.
The weakness In wheat and corn softened
the outs market and, coupled with heavy
selling, became a detrimental factor. May
oats opened at bec and closed at W1,.
Clearances were 331.0"O busnels of corn,
1,826 bushels of oats and wheat and Hour
equal to 64. '3 bushels.
Liverpool closed VGd lower on wheat
and unchanged to vd lower on corn.
Pealxiard reported 24,OnO bushels of wheat
and 12o,oa) bushels of corn taken for ex
port. Primary wheat receipts were 443.000 bush
els and shipments were S4ti.li bushels,
against receipts last year of Jxo.OuO bushels
and shipments of 17S.sk( bushels.
Corn receipts were 513.0W) bushels and
shipments were 470.000 bushels, against re
ceipts last year of 84S.OOO bushels and ship
ments of 4ti2.i)(0 bushels. .

CHICAGO GRAIN AMD PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading; and Closing;
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. Feb. 8. Liberal Australian
shipments and a consequent decline at
Liverpool caused weakness In the wheat
market, May showing u net loss of lc at
the close. Corn was c lower. Oats closed
He down. Provisions were a shade to 2V4'u
So higher. 1 .
Thu decline oi V4d In Liverpool cables,
unlooked for. considering strength which
prevailed here during the previous session
and which was reflected In the opening
quotations on, the Chicago , xehange, wm
followed by reports that supplies f,or"do
mestkj .and . foreign consumption were
plentiful. Australia .was. shown to have
shipped 455,000 bu. more .than-during . tlie
preoeduig weeik and the word )uments,
estimated at i ll.ao.ooo bu., were' regarded
as-greatly in excess of the weekly re
quirements. The - opposing Influenoe of
smaller Canadian and , northwestern re.
serves tn the .estimates for the comlrur
week failed to rescue the murket from the
lower level. Muy was off feiufac at the
opening, advanced to 9Kc, . and was later
forced back to 97,c by tne weignt or orrer
Ings. The close was weak pt 970. Primary
receipts were 443.003 bu.. compared with
344.000 bu. a year ago. Clearancea of wReat
and flour wrn equal to 06.000 .uu. Minne
apolis. Duluth and Chicago , reported . rvt
Celpts of Zliy cars, against 194 last. Week
and i74 a year ago. . -
Corn waa lower, owing to. Increased coun
try offerings and favorable weather for
the movement, . but -the market exhibited
a degree of steadiness in view tit the weak
ness in wheat. There was considerable
week-end profit-taking and the trading waa
without feature. May opened Wifio lower
at eiNc to 6ll,c. advanced to eiMitfl'ko,
and declined later to SIVj'oOlc. The elose
Was easy at tilc. Local receipts were
2(M cars, with none of contract grade.
Oats were dull and neglected and fol
lowed the downward trend of other grains.
Elevator Interests favored the bear side,
but at the low point the bull leaders of
fered support. The May option, starting
VhC lower at 54Hc, ranged between 5to
and 51e, and closed easy at 64c. Local
receipts Wero 1G7 cars. .
The provisions market displayed strength
at the opening on a smaller run of hogs
than estimated, for1 Chicago, but could not
withstand' the effects of liberal receipts
elsewhere combined with tho influence of
grain -weakness. May pork opened at $12.(0
to $11.06. advanced to $12,20 and closed at
limb to $12.r.( a gam of Hj6c . Lard
advanced from $7.55,. the opening quotation,
to IT.ti.'H,, and closed a shade higher at
$7 6EVti7.56. Ribs were' up 2"4&0o at I8.57H.
Estimated receipts for Monday :. -Wheat,
25 cars; corn, -390 cars; oats, 143 cars; hogs,

CA11LE As usual on butiwauy, lliere
was nothing of any consequence On sule.
Receipts for the week were 17.750 and show
a decrease of About l.&O as compared with
last week and of neatly 7,000 head as com
pared with the first week In February a
year ago. There has been a broad outlet
for the cettle owing to favorable advice
from eastern, markets snd the moderate
supplies an! the trend of values has been
higher from start to finish. Compared with
the close of last week prices are 15(2oc
higljr on the general run on beef. Th fair
to good grades show rather more Improve
ment than either the choice cows or the
short fed and warmed up grades.
In cows and heifers the advance has
been even more marked than In beef steers,
owing to the very limited bfferlngs . of.
butchers' and dinners' stock. Both local
puckers and outside buyers "have taken
hold freely and closing quotatioua are In
the-nelghborhood of 26g3oc higher than a
week ago. The market for veal calves has
been dull nnd lower, the week's decllno.
amounting to 25b60c. There hag been a
good demand right along for- bulls, stags
etc., and prices have been fairly well abs
tained on anything of this kind, the rah go
being $2.5(4(4.00 for poor to best grades.
Not-withstanding the sharp Improvement In
beef cattle, the trade on atoekers and feed,
era , has been very unsatisfactory. Prices
were higher, but since then the demand
from the country has fallen off very ma
terially and the movement haa been slack.
Even the more desirable grades ere 15M
' lower than a week ago. While, th de
cline on the ordinary light and medium
weight kinds has been 2C(f40c. The. decline
haa brought out- a botten demand "toward
the close of the week and there la a prob
ability that the supply will- be well cleaned
up and a better trade developed next week.

HOGS For a Saturday the supply was
fairly liberal and the week's receipts aver
age up substantially the same aa last week
and nearly 20.000 heavier than for the cor
responding week a year ago. The market
today was active and strong, with the
range of prices and the bulk of aalea sub.
atarttlally the same as on yesterday. Dur
ing (he past week tbere has been, no ma
terial change In the conditions surround
ing and governing the trade and closing
prices are practically the same as at the
clote of last week. Both local packers and
outside buyers show a preference for and
pay a premium oa the good weight and
Duality' hogs and all classes of buyers
iscriminate sharply against thin, light and
under-welght stuf. For fair to good hogs
of alt weights, however, the range of prices
is not very wide; the top today was $4 33
and the bulk trf tha tradV around $4.10fa

SHEEP The week closes with moderate
number of sheep on sale and with the mar
ket practically steady all around. Receipt
for the past week foot up upwards of
32.000 head in round numbers, as against
2.i9 iiead for the week preceding and
33.560 head for the corresponding period a
year ago, thus sltowlug that the nuanher,
while not large, is fully as liberal as the
correaitondlng season last year.
Outside of a little weakness shown en
lambs carrying much weight there has
been no material .change In the market
throughout the week for mutton grades.
The lambs sold this week up to $6 76. a
price fully Up to last week's basis. Other
grades of mutton sheep, such aa yearlings,
ewea and wethers, aUo sold fully steady
throughout the week.
In the feeding division the supply haa
scarcely equalled the demand and while
tbere has been no very material x-hange
in prices the demand has been strong
throughout the week on feeding lambs espe
cially. The general tone of tho trade is
satisfactory all around.
Receipts today amount to seven ears.
Including a few load that were billed
through to eastern feeding points. The
Inquiry from packers was sufficient to
take tip the offerlnee in good season at
practically unchanged prices, with the tone
rather strong than otherwise.

CONDITION OF OMAHA TRADE
Jobbers Await Sprinir Buyers, Who
Are Slow in Arriving;.
"SHOPPING," NOT BAYING GOODS
Wholesalers Are Maklna Knee la 1
Prlrea and flayers Who Come In
Ilurlntr Meat Week Will,
Uel Rara-nlas.
Wholesaler of Omaha enter .the feurth
week of Die spring merchants meetings
Monday morning. The attendance during
the past week has not been large. Most
everything seems ss unsettled as tho
Weather. Merchants do not seem to kmuv
whther to buy for spring and prepare to
open early for tho trade, or delay lor a
month to see what tho weather will permit.
The general feeling is that lliere will bo, at
least two weeks ol bltler cold weather and
some deep snow before winter Is entirely
gone.
For this reason complaints are being
heard tn Johhlng quarters over tle slowness
of spring buying. In the maturity of cases
the merchants who are coming in are re
ported to be "shopping" rather than buy
ing goods. Tin to Kccnis to be a good bit
of uncertainty In their minds aa to the fu
ture course of prices, and tills is responsible
for the restrained demand In the dry gooda
lines at least. Tho action of buyers ar
riving by the plan of Xmahn wholesalers
paying the fare, during the next tvsro weeks
Will be watched with much Interest.
Other Cities Wllh Omaha.
What Is true of Onitiliu is true of other
Jobbing centers from the far west to New
York city, where tho bhers report almost
dnlly that new busmees for spring Is slow.
Siierlnls are being offered In different
houses throughout the market, and some
of the small out of town buyers from near
by sections are taking these goods in fair
uuantiiles.
Htiyers coming to Omaha during the next
two weeks will find many goods at low
values, which will help -out on bargain
days, such us woman s hosiery In gnu 10,
iare at good Talucs and spring underwear.
Some of the new spring goods shown in the
departments are the most attractive ever
put out by the Omaha houses and a very
fair volume of orders haa already been
booked on the lines.
In the white goods market there is a
temporary lull, caused by most of the
bu.xcrs being different to the offerings now
being made. The condition of the market
Indicated that some repeat orders will be
placed before the end of the month un lines
of household gouds and somu of the plain
staple piece goods. V lillu not tuking on
goods, the merchants of the city ami from
out of town are accepting tlic mercliundlee
that is due them on contracts. Tho sales
during the pusi month has been heavy, too
retullers now being determined tu ctosu out
their stocks con-pletely.
. hhoea anil , Rubbers Move.
Snow and Ice have made a good trade nit,
shoes and rubbers Willi the retailers, and a
tew days more of bad weather will result
in the retailers culling for new lines of
goods, though ut the present time most
letall stores have good stocks of goods
which they have fulled to close out becauH
Of the open winter. The present apetl 101
been ulxiut the first which required a pair
of rubbers for every man, woman and child
tn the state, all other storms passing over
In a few hours, and leaving streets in
good condition.
The Jobbing demand In drugs has not
been active for the past month, but is
opening'' ui for n good spring trade. An
Improved Inquiry has been noted, disinfec
tants of all kinds being In good demand.
The price changes noted for the week are
as follows:
Druse Prices of the Week.
Opium was quiet and without new fea
ture. The consuming demand continues
slow and unimportant, with quotations
nominally unchanged at M50$f4.55. as to
qirantity and seller. Towdered Is held at
f5.4iKii6.45. but the demand is not urgent.
Quinine is in somewhat better demand
and moving more freely into channels of
consumption, with the tone of the market
steady, and manufacturers' prices are main,
tallied on the old -basts of ltic for bulk In
10o-oun.'e tins. Cables received recently
report the bark shipments from Java dur
ing January 1.380,000 pounds, against 1,
4:13.000 pounds -for. the corresponding month
last year.
Harlem oil Is fairly steady, with a mod
erate consuming inquiry and limited quan
titles are selling at the quoted priue of ,
$2.15.
Bloe berries are higher, owing to report a
that values ubroad for new crop are ad
vancing, and the revised spot . quotations
are 12t13c, with sales reported wllhln that
range. ' ..-'. -..'

market la steady, with dealers quoting 6
10c, aa to grade and nuantltv.
Grocery Prices Firm.
Speaking generally, the grocery trade la
not active, ut normal. Retailers are not
buying futures aa heavily aj usual. It is
predicted that prices will be well main
tained. There Is said to be no need to
allow stocks to become abnormally low,
because of the hope that prices will gi
lower. The fact la that the present ecala
will hold well through the spring and Into
the summer. No staple advanced during
the week, but Indications are that tha
retailers Jiiust soon ask a better price for
teas. Some spices declined, cloves drop
ping 2c per pmind; pepper, 2c per pound,
anil a number of other ground spices.
Cove oysters declined 34iic per doxnn, while
apples are 50c per barrel cheaper than ten
days ago. . ,
Late arrivals of dark honey from Colo
rado California and other aeetlone of tha
west have had the effect of bringing about
a lowering of values, which has Included
Minnesota and Wisconsin white honey. Of.
ferlngs are heavy and demand Is only sea.
aonable. .
Sugar There are no new features to re
port either In raws or refined for the last
week. There la little activity In the mar

Canned Fruit The firmness exhibited Irt
gallon apples last week was conspicuously
absent this week. While there is consid
erable firmness in tho undertone of the
ranned fruit situation, the whole llns Is
devoid of activity. Goods are moving
Slowly at unchanged prices.
Canned Fish The danism! continues good
at firm prices for red and pink salmon.
All grades are moving well. The situation
does not seem to warrant lower prioea this
Season. Other goods are quiet and. Un.
' Dried Fruits Raisins easier, with liberal
offerings. Prunes are firm, with the
smaller and medium slsee In the better de
mand. Curranta are moving well, with
prices well maintained; outlook l for bet
ter prices. Plga and dates are strong.
Other lines are unrhanged.
Nuts The recent f lurry caused prices on
walnuts to ease off somewhat to a lower
level. These lower . prices In connection
With the fact that the French erop la ma
terially short, with light stocks in America,
should all contribute toward making pres
ent quotations very attractive to buyers.
Preserves Movement somewhat better
than last week; no change in quotations.

unchanged.
Salt Fish Stocks are In fine shape, pre
paratory for the Lenten season demand.
