OMAHA LIVE STOCR' MARKET
NEW IfiRK. Kept. 33 The trannJil s;ate
Into which tne stock msrket fell today
after the turmoil of yesterdsy formed a
strong rontrsst. The transformation wss
so sudden as to appear unnatural, and was
for that reason made the ground for some
suspicion and for reserve In speculative
commitments. It Is usual, after so violent
a collapse In prices as has occurred In the
last few dsys. for the first rebound to be
of corresponding vigor.
The languor Into which the movement
fell today at a moderate stage of the re
covery therefor, left grounds for distrust.
Something of this moderation was attribut
able to the extent to which bear operators
covered their support on contracts late
yesterdsy. wheji prices were recovering in
proportion to the enormous buvlng for
that account. This covering movement by
the bears wss continued today. Very large
buying orders were exported by a few Influ
ential Stock exchange houses, who were
most active In the recent selling. Their
transactions were Isrpest in the two Har
rtman Pacific stocks snd In Reading These
are the operations which the supposition
current on the floor of the Stock exchange
connects with the Standard OH and Harri
man Interests Sentiment on the sto'k
market has been swayed for weeks bv the
belief that action was being taken in the
market for this sccount. Tiie buvlng todav
created the Impression that a further fall
in prices was to receive the countenance
of these powers no longer. The miscellane
ous following of room traders and profes
sional operators followed this leadership
Implicitly, ss they believed they penetrated
Its concealed purposes. The dull hesitation
of the market after the first hour gava this
element much anxiety. Almost half the
day's business was done In that hour.
Practically the extreme range of the day's
price fluctuations was established also In
that time. The higher opening prices
brought out realising sales, with a relapse
which wiped out the gaina. Prices rose
sgain before the end of the hour, and this
fixed the limit of the price movement after
wsrd. It was traversed many times, but
without any great animation or urgency.
Dealings were greatly congested In the Har
Mman stocks, Reading and the copper In
dustrials. The day's news was not Important and
wss little regarded, attention being concen
trated upon the closing up of previous
sneculstive commitments There was a re
bound from the recent declining tendency
in the Price of Conner warrants In fnilnn
This called renewed attention to the close
correspondence there has been between the
e ork. Msser Market.

Kealares of the Tradlnc and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. Sept. 23. Beneath the seesaw
of prices In the wheat market today there
, was a strung undertone based largely on
comparatively firm cables and a belief that
nortnwest receipts had reached their maxi
. mum. .December closed with a net gain of
c. Corn and oats likewise closed higher
and provisions at a slight gain.
The tap of t lie opening gong found a
large short Interest, which had sold confi
dently on the rains In the winter wheat
country. They were confronted, however,
by cables, which held firm In the face of
tha decline on this side yesterday by re
ports that the weather in Argentina was
drv and that arrivals at Minneapolis and
1 liululh , liaJ ' reached, hot to say passed,
their maximum. .Opening prices under the
"rush of covering , orders were irregular,
December rsngrtig from a shade under yes-
terday to above, the best figures being
Sl.Osijl.OO,. Within the first hour VUSc
had been added to.t.ma price. Heavy sell-
inl was 'Invited 'by the bulge, and In the
unloading which followed one firm alone Is
said to have gotten rid of 3.000.000 bu. De-
. cember receded to 9Wo under this pressure,
but rebounded promptly on renewed activity
by' the bulls, who were impressed by the
manner in which the heavy offerings had
been absorbed. A factor in the recovery
was a report of Xreeslng temperatures In
the Canadian northwest and weather In
general calculated id-lead td a curtailment
of the movement to market. December at
the close was ie over yesterday at I1.0OS&

cago, Minneapolis snd Duluth aggregated
:M cars, against 1.3S3 last week and o, a
year ago. Export sales were reported at
23 loads. Minneapolis receipts In the last
four days aggregated 1,9W.0 bu.
While fluctuations in the corn market
showed to some extent the effect of the
wheat rrarket. prices were held well upon
covering by shorts, who were buyers of
both September and the new crop montns.
The market was agitated not only by the
light receipts 106 cars here, with 68 of con
tract grade but by fear of frost following
last night's rains. December Prices covered
a rahge of ?o and their close at o5.5Hc
was 4lB4tC up.
Oats were fairly strong all day. despite
considerable selling of distant deliveries by
caah grain lntereats. Buying on all soft
spota was of an influential character and
the caah market ruled firm to Vc up. De
cember sold within a range of 4c and
closed SfcHc ver yesterday at 487e49c.
Ixwal receipts were 171 cars.
Selling of nearby products In ths pro

tlrroughout the summer speculation. While
stocks were rising there was a daily an
nouncement of an advance in copper quota
tions, while the relapse In stoc ks has been
accompanied by successive declines In the
prices for copper. This has been taken to
confirm opinion of the responsibility for
the movement of the group of capitalists
with a large common Interest in the copper
Industry and In the corporations of which
the shares have been moat active in the
market.
The breaking of the drouth In the West
was heralded with satisfaction, but the
warning of a probable cold anap to follow
made the corn market sensitive. The dav
ended at the Stock exchange with one of
the numerous upward swings of prices, hut
with no more assurance displayed In the
movement than on previous occasions.

SHEEP Tha sheep msrket closed very
dull and weak last night, with prices gen
erally 3.fl4V lower and with plenty of
lambs selling all of tvv lower than last
week. Some of the ssme lambs that were
here two weeks ago sold yesterdsy after
noon 85c lower. The csuse for such a sharp
break Is to be- found In the fact that re
ceipts this week hsve been so enormous,
while country buyers hsve been staying
home either On account of dry weather or
because they were Intending to come In a
few days later in time for ths Ak-Sar-Ben
festivities. As wss remarked yesterday,
the time to buy Is when the stuff Is on
sale and going so cheap, and It would
seem ss If parties intending to feed ought
to send In their orders whils there are so
msny sheep and lambs from which to make
selections. It is hardly reasonsbl to ex
pect tnat receipts will long continue so
hesvy with prices bresklng down at such a
rapid rate.
Receipts this morning looked very small
as compared with the run yesterday and
the day before, there being not many over
half the number of fresh loads on sale.
There wers. however, a good many carried
over from yesterday, so that there wss no
shortsge In ths supply; In fact, the barn
was well filled.
When buyers and sellers got down to
business sheep, both killers snd feeders,
sold shout steady with yesterday's de
cline. While the trade was not very active,
there waa considerable Inquiry for good
stuff, and the more deslrsble of the of
ferings changed hands in pretty fair sea
son. There were no fat lambs of any conse
quence on ssle. so thst It was hardly pos
sible to quote the msrket on that kind
of stuff. Still, ss psckers have been pretty
heavy buyers this week. It wss to be pre
sumed that the demsnd today would not
have been very brisk, even had there been
anything her to sell. Owing to the num
ber of feeder lambs on sale, the trade
on that kind seemed very slow, and yet
It was a noticeable fact thst a good many
were changing bands. It would appear that
a good many buyers took advantags of
the slump In prices to get In their orders.
The prices pstd. while about steady with
yesterday's lowest time, which was on the
close, were lower than yesterday's early
market.

City Attorney Burnam Is ajthorlty fr
the statement, that the ordinance Intro
duced In the council meeting Tuesday night
by Councilman Alma Jackson relating to
a new park board, repealing one section
of the present ordinance, has not Intended
as a means of "putting the skids ' under
Ed. P. Berrymsa. president of the board,
but was merely a perfunctory measure 10
piacs the ordinance In conformity with
tha recent ruling of the supreme court.
Tha city attorney: la Incensed over the
Interpretation plaoed on tha ordinance by
the World-Herald and says there is noth
ing In the measure to warrant thst paper
or any politician In asserting- that tha mea
sure was aimed at President Berrymsn,
who Is at present la 111 favor with the
Jlmocrats. Mayor Lshlmsn's politics! club.
"The old ordinance governing ths Psrk
board ssys the commissioners 'shall bs ap
pointed as required by tha aotv Incorporat
ing metropolitan cities.' " said City At
torney Burnam. "This set . provides for
their appointment by the district Judges.
The suprems court now rules ' that they
ahsll be appointed by the mayor. It was
necessary, therefore, that the ordinance
snould conform with ths suprems court's
ruling and therefore this ordinance was In
troduced by Mr. Jackson. I drew It up and
asked Mr. Jackson to introduce It. It wss
never interded as a slam at Mr. Berrymsn
and there la nothing- In It to warrant the
World-Heralds construction."
Test of Jackson BUI.
Ths ordinance introduced by Mr. Jackson,
which was Intended to repeal the present
messure, Is as follows:
There shall be a board of park commis
sioners of the city of Omaha, which shall
be composed of five members, who shall
be resident free holders of such city and
who shall be appointed by the mayor sub
ject to the confirmation and approval of
the city council of said city and In ac
cordance with tha designation of tha mayor.
one of said members for a term ending
the second Tuesday of Slay, 1899. and the
other members for terms ending respec
tively on the first, second, third and fourth
years thereafter, and It shall bo the duty
of said mayor thereafter to appoint, sub
ject to the approval and confirmation of
the city council, one member of ssld board
In April of earh year, the member so ap
pointed to be for the term of five years
from the second Tuesday of May following
his appointment.
Since the misconstruction has been placed
on the ordinance, the city attorney has de
cided to draft an entire new messure that
can In no wsy be controverted. This new
ordinance will specify for the appointment
of park commissioners to terms beginning
in May, 1909, and to serve terms of one,
two, three, four and five years. There will
be a clause In it specifying that the ordi
nance shall In no way be construed as af
fecting the present membership of ths
board. Mr, Burnam will ask that tha or
dinance Introduced Tuesday night by Mr.
Jackson be placed on file and that ths new
one which he Is now engaged In drawing
up be passed In its stead
Berrynaan Is There.
President Berryman waa present at the
council meeting Tuesday night, but 88 s
he did not understand ths Jackson ordi
nance when It wss tntroduoed and did not
know whether It wss Intended as a roller
coaster for his espwctel benefit or not. Ha
taw tha city- attorney Wednesday, bow
ever, and was assured that his under
pinning had not been Injured in tha least.
When Mr. Berryman waa asked Wednes
day If he Intends to resign from the Park
bosrd he replied:
"No one hss asked me to resign."
He wss then reminded that ths Dahlman
Democracy last Friday evening demanded
his scalp, but he merely laughed and
asked the reporter aot to quota him and
to be on the safe side refused to ssy anything.

Barglar Wires When Officers -Arc
Hwsleas.
False burglar alarms from both the
federal building and the nubile library
were turned into the police station aarly
Wednesdsy morning Inadvertantly by the
watchmen at the buildings.
About 1 o'clock tba night watchman
opened a vault -door on the second floor of
the federsl building and within two or
three minutes Emergency . Officer Relgle
man on his motor bicycle arrived on the
scene, only to be told by tba watchman
that "no policemen were needed." At
first Officer Relgleman was even ssked
what his business wss at the place, al
though he was accompanied by two patrol
men In uniform. It la understood from
ths Western Union burglary officer that
the watchman made a nrlstske In open
ing the vsult and tha men who made the
hurry run from the station were quits in
censed over th cold reception they were
accorded after 'thfllf strenuous effort to
assist In the rap'tura of the supposed
burglar.
Before trie excitement s along th men
and the overworked horses. Incident to ths
postoffice call, which was qufte a rare
occurrence, had subsided, th the Jail, a
hurry call from the library was received.
Officer Relgleman on the emergency mo
torcycle and Patrolman Herald in tha Pa
trol wagon responded 0 the alarm, but
found that tha aoans- ws4 due to tha for
getfulness of the watchmin, who failed 14
turn off the alarm alrcuit before opening- a
