Maneuvering of professional speculators was chiefly re sponsible for such price hanees ad oc curred today on the stock exchange. The existence of what Is generally termed the largest short Interest since last fall fur nished the Incentive for an active covering movement which sent prices upward. Stocks were held firmly for higher fig ures whenever any extensive demand ap peared and prices advanced at the outside. In the early trailing Canadian Pacific gained 2 points and Atchison and Union Pacific 1. The close showed few Important changes for the day. Extensive buying of Union Pneiflo was resumed, but there was little demand for other Harrlman issues. Colorado Fuel sold off on account of the government's action In contesting the company's title to coal lands. The Wabash-Pittsburg terminal rompany placed an order for l.nno steel cars and fairly large export orders for rails were announced. Some of the largest railway svstema sub mitted their January figures today and they were not encouraging. The Pennsylvania system reported a decrease in net operating revenue for all lines of $2.1118.000. The New York Central proper earned $V4.(vi0 less, j net; the Ike Shore $-!9S.oiiO and other lines1 of the system lesser amounts. Union Pa cific s decrease was $2K3 000.

PIERRE, a D.. March L (Special Tele gram.) To go the way of all of Its pre decessors was the fate of the house antl approprlatlon combine when tt came to a test on the first special bill this after- 1 noon. The members' combine attempted I vainly to stay passage of tha bill to provide a building at Springfield Normal, but could not muster tha votes, and the bill went through with colors flying and was at ouce followed by another special bill for a building at the School for the Deaf at Sioux Falls. This means that all the spe cial bills will get through In the next day or two. The house took Its whirl at the bill for a board of control for the Soldiers' home In which the provisions requiring the mem bers to be only soldiers, now In the law Is eliminated. It first failed as an "emer gency" bill, but was reconsidered, and went through with votes to spare, and If the senate accepts It, It will be law at once. The senate passed the Richards' primary law this afternoon and the indications now are that the house will accept It, and wipe out the necessity for sending It to the peo ple for a vote. It Is one of the most radi cal primary ventures for any state, and the result will be either a very had mess or an unexpected working out of a law with so many radically new features lhat It will take the breath away from many of the politicians of the state when they see It. For years the farmer members have been attempting to get an appropriation to pay for horses which have been killed by order of the state authorities, on account of glanders, and have always failed, but they now have their bill through both houses, carrying $16,000 a year for tbat purpose mid are baipy avar tb.4) 4rutooma, OMAHA LIYE STOCK MARKET 'tllc of All KlmN Strong to Trn Onta llithcr.

Still the total for the three days foots up 13.300 head about the same as for the corresponding davs of last week, but smaller than a year ago by 2.6n0 head. Moderate receipts locally and at eastern centers have combined to create a very much better feeling in the marekt than existed last week. The result was that buy era were out In the yards earlier than usual In the morning and they all seemed to be In need of cattle. Thus It hrfppened that there was more life and snap to the trade than for sevoral days back. All kinds of beer steers sold stronger and In a great many cases fully 10c higher than yester day. Good cattle sold up to $6.25. Cows and heifers participated In the Im proved conditions, they too. selling stronger and In very many cases 10c higher. b eeders were strong and active, but they have been good sellers every day so that there was not so much room for advance on that kind of cattle aa was the case with Killers.

Wethers were scarce and lambs held steady. Total receipts were limited, the run consisting of lambs, sheep and yearlings of Just about equal propor tlons. The advance In sheep and yearlings did not prove much of a surprise to the trade, as It was generally admitted that there was some room for Improvement between local prices and those In force at eastern points. Choice ewes brought as much as $4.20 and prime wethers are safely quotable at $4-36fg4.40. Yearlings, the same kind that moved at $4 90 yesterday, went at $5.06. In quiry from all quarters was reasonably active and -en early clearance was made. Lamb trade failed to share In Improve ment, a narrow spread between local and outside values making It easy for buyers to keep the market under control. Strictly choice lambs were not very plentiful and would doubtless command $6.00. The best animals on sale brought $5.ST.
