OMAHA. Jan. 4. 1910.
i,utver rsbles gave the wheat market an
easy opening. The dcllnn wa strrtoned,
however, when northwestern receipts were
reported lighter. There was not muh ac
tion to the market aa neither side had any
Influencing news to Induce buying or sell
ing. Receipts of corn oontlnua (rood and stocks
are Increasing rspldry. The demand I very
low and cash value ara easier and on the
decline.
Wheat was affected by tha lower cables
and bearish traders sold tha option off.
Cai-h stuff was weak and lower on good
receipts and light demand. The buying
power was decidedly out of the market.
Corn eased off shsrply, showing mora
weakness after the weak cash market. Re
ceipts have been too liberal and th ship
ping demand too Hunt to hold values at
their present level.
Primary wheat receipts were 000.000 bu.
and shipments were 28.no0 bu.. against ns
cilpts last year of f3,000 bu. and ship
ments of 114,000 bu.
Primary corn receipt were 879.000 bu. and
shipments were 418.000 bu., against receipts
last year of 46,000 bu. and shipments Of

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Fea tores of tha Trad I a at and Closing;
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Feb. 1 Grains ruled lower to
i day, wheat leading In the decline under
heavy selling pressure. Provisions after
showing a little strength also tell off.
Trading In wheat started with a mod
erate decline, which was followed by a
alight rally despite th preponderance of
bearish factors, notably foreign weakness,
lurge arrivals and a slow demand for
cash wheat. The temporary strength waa
Insufficient to hold the market at the high
levels and prices slid down gently from
Ho to l4jc, th decline being stayed at
different points by buying activity. May
retrodraded from 1.10L1014 te 1.0MO
l.C94, th other future traveling over a
shorter fall. The close was o removed
from the low points of the day, with May
at $1.0914J1.09. 4jlo lower than tha final
figures yesterday.
May com prices suffered In comparison
with the July figures. Early symptoms of
strength .which carried May up to 6610
were unable to successfully resist the
downward trend induced by weakness tn
ths demand for cash corn. Through most
of the sesaton July prices kept above May,
the distant month fluctuating from Ho to
Ho. while May fell off HWAc from the
high point. All the futures made a weak
close at the low points, with May at Wii
60HC S,6o lower, while July at 66ic
was Ho lower.
Trade In oats followed closely that In
corn, the variations being from o to Ho.
May touched 4tfco and fell off to 464c,
closing H4jHo lower.
In provisions ' pork closed unchanged to
ZM-fl higher, while lard and ribs were un
changed to 7VJ "lower.

NEW YORK, Feb. 4. Speculative sent!
ment remained much unsettled today a
an after-effect of the violent declines ef
fected in yesterday's market. There was
no resumption of the heavy liquidation
which broke the market yesterday and this
left the aay open to some recovery. The
bear Interest, left uncovered after such a
SDasm as has occurred this week. Innu
a potential demsnd for stocks sufficient
to carry prices away from the low level.
The rapid and extensive denllne which
has occurred points to a culmination of an
ordinary market cycle. Foreigners ex
pressed this view of the situation before
business resumed on the New York Stock
exchange by advancing the prices of Amer
leans In that market. It was not surpris
ing, therefore, that a rush of bears to
cover shorts should have made opening
ui ices well above last nleht s closing.
'I ne violence of these movements proved
disconcerting to all but the most highly
speculative element In the market and ths
recovery eliminated some of the substan
tia! buying which was begun at th lower
pi-Ices. The bears rallied their forces when
any sign of that sort appeared and made
fresh attacks. These attacks a ere most
effective In ths copper group and espe
cially American Smelling. The poxltlon of
the proposed merger, as well as the re
cent statement of annual earnings of the
company, were assigned as reasons for Its
vulnerability.
The tone of speculative sentiment was
kept shifting In that way throughout the
day. The preliminary estimates of the
week's currency movement pointed to an
other notable addition to the surplus re
serve of the banks. The likelihood of loan
contraction to be shown In consequence
of the heary stock market liquidation
added to this probability. This had Its
influence In checking the- liquidation by
the prospect that the banks would be ex
periencing difficulty before long In finding
employment for their eurplu funds. One
of the day's upward movements Was in
progress at the closing, which was strong,
with net gains for most stocks.
Bonds were Irregular. Total pales, par
value, $3,401,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

H11EF.P In the neighborhood of a dosen
loads of heep were received thla mottling
and packers were out early buying up such
strings of killers as they needed. A good,
active trad resulted and ths pens were
cleared early at prices strong to posulbly
some higher than yesterday. Wethers sold
at $(.86 and $.9t). ewes real'itd $ OA and
heavy yrarllngs changed hands at $7. If.
While the supply of lambs was rather
meager than otherwise, buyers did aot ap
pear to be very anxious for this cl.is of
stock and the tone to trade wse somewhat
easier, but there was little positive chang
In valurs on way or th other A small
rtrlng rf ted westerns sold at $X 40 and It
would take something strictly choice to
command $8.60.
The week's supply of live mutton thus
far foots up to a total of 20.000 head, as
oompaied with almost 23,000 head for the
same day lost week and over 20.000 head
fof the same period of last year. It will
be reaAlJy seen that th curtailment of
supply has resulted In a marked Improve
ment of prices by glancing at the Quota
tions and sales given below; In faot, all of
the previous week' loss.hna been re
gained during the last few days and price
are in the same notches mat mey were
before the agitation of meat price. The
net advance on all classes or killers tar

Totals 2,857 ' 8,419
CATTLE Receipts of cattle ware
moderate this morning, only 112 cars being
reported in. making the total for the five
days 16,000 head, whioh shows a falling off
of ever 3.000 head, aa compared with the
same days last week. In spite of the fact
that receipts were moderate they were
apparently large enough considering the
condition of the trade. All other markets
were reported aa very slow and weak and
buyers here were accordingly disposed to
take their time and await further infor
mation from other selling points before do
ing very much business.) Thus It happened
that It was 10 o'clock In th morning before
buyers even went out Into the yards and
considerable later than that before very
much business was transacted.
When buyers and sellers finally got to
gether on a trading basis the market was
not so bad after all. Beef steers wer gen
erally quoted as weak to 10c lower, but tha
quality was very common, there being no
very desirable killers In sight and abso
lutely nothing that could ibe graded as
good to choice. While the movement waa
slow, the moat of the cattle changed hands
In fair season In the morning.
Cows and helfera were also slow to Mb
lower, and while backward about selling,
were still all disposed of In reasonable
season. The cause for the decline waa very
plainly the unfavorable advices from east
ern selling points.
There were not enough feeders to cut
very much figure In the trade, but what
few there were - sold In about the same
notches as yesterday, the market being
quoted practically steady.

HOGS Lower messages from all leading
markets this morning gave the local situa
tion a very bearish aspect. The bt bids
obtainable on the early market oame from
shippers and were Just about a dime lower
than yesterday s general trade. Even at
this decline the demand was rather llmltrd
and only the hest hogs were wanuert. Puck
ers did not appear In the alloys until after
the big bulk of the rec:pts hud been
yarded and most buyers for local conoorns
claimed mat tueir instructions were to
buy tneir droves on a 15c lover bals. As
result, thers was little activity to trade.
but what few hogs changed hands during
later rounas generally unowca tno full de
cllne.
While the trade was slow, the hoas kert
changing lands and In the end were prac
tically all disposed of. The general market
might he summed up as Walbo lower, with
tli hulk of the hogs selling around tVs.fCuai
8.35 and on up aa hlh aa $8.16.
