CTUCA'K), Dec. 28. Plappearance of
nearly &,W'.000 bushel from the world's
available supply of wheat holped turn the
market upward today, notwithstanding a
good rainfall In the dry district southwest.
The first named happening waa unlooked
for; the other had been largely discounted
a full day In advance. Compared with laat
night, the close wa 'jc higher to V6'o
decline. The end of trading left corn MiO
net lower, oat "ic. to So down and pro
visions off 2fc to 37V4.i
Leading long in wheat bought the May
option, but they sold July. In consequence
the distant delivery became weak, whereas
that nearby waa strong. Some of yester
day's short sellers, too, were purchasers
at the outset. May congestion appeared
plainly In evidence, although the supply
loosened almost invariably on the slightest
bulge. Nevertheless, trade in July wa
much larger than heretofore, and kept
steadily growing. A leas favorable crop
outlook in Frsnca, Germany and Great
fcrltaln had some Influence on the bull
side.- It was on the news Of the falling
off in tha world's available supply, how
ever, that the market showed the greatest
strength, lvurlng the session May ranged
from 9fio to Viiat-JVa and closed Mo up
at W4jC.
, Corn started with an upward tilt, but
with heavy consignments and with little
outlet from here in a shipping way the
market eased off. May fluctuated between
47V and 48o, closing steady at 47-c, a net
loss of 'ic Cash corn was weak; No. J
yellow finished at 4&V4fio.
Oats suffered from withdrawal of ele
vator demand for carlots to make into
grades suitable for delivery on December
contract. May varied from I3c to SI'aC,
with final sales at SSg-aao, a loss of c
from lHst nUht.
Belief that the packer are making pork
to redeliver next month caused material
weakness in ull kinds of provision. At
1he end of the day pork wa down 25e to
j',Vc, lard off 27e. to 30c and ribs showed
a decline of 17Hc to 2tVT22Hc.

Totals
CATTLE Receipts of cattle were very
fair today, 122 cars bolng reported. This
makes tne total tor the week 6.900 head,
only about half as large as a week ago
and smaller than the Holiday week last
year by 2.6U0 head. The market as a whole
was in very satisfactory condition as
viewed from a seller's standpoint.
Packers were all out In the aiua In good
season this morning and anything in the
way of desirable beef steers finding favor
In the buyeia eyes commanded good strong
prices. The offerings were picked up
quite readily and early arrivals at least
were soon disposed of.
Cows and heifers also commanded good
strong prices and the trade on that kind
of oattle was sufficiently active to effect
a very early clearance. The market. In
fact, was In a thoroughly healthy condi
tion from start to finish.
The supply of stockers and feeders was
small, but still there was iult a sprink
ling, but none too many to supply the re
quirements of the trade. Buyers aa a r-ie
were out in the yards in good season in
the morning and practically everything
changed hands early. Quite a string of
hay led or stalk fed cattle sold to feeder
buyers at $6.60.

SHEEP In the neighborhood of eighteen
doubels of fed sheep and lambs arrived this
morning, but none of the regular buyers
appeared to be very anxious for material
and movement was slow from the start.
Steady prices acre maintained ns a rule,
but were obtained onlv after more or less
dickering between buyer and seller. The
noon clearance found most of the desirable
killing strings in second hands, moderate
receipts clearing In good season, while any
thing Ike a heavy supply would huve
doubtless been burdensome.
In the sheep branch of the trade year
lings sold ti 1 ns high as $5.00. which wa
also yesterday's high pr'ce on "breaker."
Choice handy weight yearlings would prob
ably bring $6 26 or moVe. Oood ewe moved
at $3.65, indicating a quotable top of Z.H.
It might be noted, however, that ewe of
ferings were especially slow.
Lambs sold up a high a $6 15. the sup
ply being none too plentiful and average
quality none too good. An apparent pre
ference for lambs In the east at present
prices, due largely to the same preference
In retail trade, la credited with the more
active inquiry for stock of this kind at
South Omaha and other river markets
lately.

LOGS Hog prices suffered a reaction
th's morning, the decline being due to
heavier receipts and unfavorable advices
from eastern points. All weights and
grades had to sell cheaper, heavies meeting
with the most indifferent demand. Reduc
tions of 6al0c were apparent on most of
tin- early tales, but aa the morn ng ad
vanced, the situation grew more bear h
and close was at the full decline. Shippers
t.. l.-cted a few loads for epeculatlve pur
poses, but oiders from this quarter were
liardly large enough to give the general
in it. very much support.
Heavy hogs dro.ed to 17.50r7 .60. a com
pared with yesterday' spread of $7.rt4'0 ,.70
on same class of slock. Mixed hog moved
around $7.76 and light and amooih butch
er sold at or near the top. $?5. Move
ment at no time was very active, but
tmnl clearance wa practically complete.
Wh.le today's break leaes the market
In much ti e same condition tliet it was
Saturday, It will be noted that local valuet
are not only well up to tne logical level
but are even crowding eaitern valuu. tha
additional cot of delivery having l.ttle or
no cheapening influence.
Ijile arrital fared Btlll worse at the
extreme close, being fully 15o lower and In
aunie cases bids were all of 2oo lower, quit

Three Men Charged
With Robbing Post
Office at Stockholm
James O'Brien, Joseph Smith and
John Howard Held to Await
Action of Grand Jury.
ABERDEEN. P. D., Dec. 28 (Special.)-
James O'Brien. Joseph Smith and, John
Howard are the names of three men
who were bound over late yesterday to
await the action of the federal court on
the charge of robbing the postufflce at
Stockholm, 8. D., on the night of Decem
ber 23. O'Brien and Howard are middle
aged men, while Smith is somewhat
younger. ' The evidence against them Is
so strong that there appears to be little
doubt of their conviction. The postofflc
Is located In a store at Stockholm, and the
men secured their loot both from the post
office and the stock of merchandise. After
looting the building they went to a livery
barn and stole a team, but met with the
mishap which eventually led to their ar
rest when they ran Into a barbed
fence three miles from Stockholm, and
were compelled to walk to South Shore,
four miles farther. Arriving there, O'Brien
and Smith hid in a barn, while Howard
walked on to Forestvllle. All three men
were captured the next day and were hur
ried to the oounty Jail at Watertown, where
they were kept until Deputy Marshal Byron
McVeigh could bring them to Aberdeen.
A quantity of shoes from the store at
Stockholm, and some nltro glycerine were
found In the possession of the men.

ding six weeks after the divorce was se
cured start he young couple again on
tha matrimonial sea.

Small Coins on Way
Back to Treasury
Banks Are Returning- Fractional Cur
rency Withdrawn to Meet De
mands of Christmas Trade.
WASHINGTON, Dee. 28. The flood of
small coins which th mints ground out for
the Christmas trade has begun to find Its
way back to tha vaults of the treasury,
where It will II until another holiday shop
ping season.
Some $20,000,000 In all. In dimes, quarters
and halves, ar coming into Washington by
express. Stores hustle the coin to th
banks and the banks quickly send It back
to ths treasury. It Is being redeemed
moMly in silver certificates.
Christmas this year made a new record
In the demand for pennies. For three
weeks preceding Christmas th Philadelphia
mint stamped out coppers at tha rata ot
l.t.iO.000 a day without stemming the de
mand. Where the pennies alt went to no
one knows. None of them ever returns to
ths treasury. They seem to be lost In circulation.
