GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Quiet Opening in Wheat, with Only
Slight Fluctuation. .

Putarea Advaae Sharply In Cevrr

Wet Weather Delays the
Flant In ir.
OMAHA, April IS. 1911.
There was a quiet opening In the wheat
market after the holiday with little change
In the market prices.
Leading; longs were steady buyers from
the start and later a rush of short cover
ing and heavy commission house buylnjr
to even up the week's trading caused the
snarp advance In all futures.
The corn market was strong and ad
vanced with wheat. The cold, wet weather
has delayed the preparations ror the seed
ing of the new crop and has also pre
vented the country movement for the first
half of April. These conditions are
strengthening the cash situation and fur-
uier advances are likely.
Wheat ruled very strong and higher,
values closing at the top, being 2B2o
higher. The cash and the congestion In
the May option were the ruling features.
Corn ruled very steady, with values gen
erally higher, the strength being; largely
in sympathy with wheat. Cash values
were Ho higher.
Primary wheat receipts were 427,000 bush
els and shipments were 2R2.000 bushels.
against receipts last year of 3S2 bushels
ann snipments or 697,000 bushels.
Primary corn receipts were 853,000 bush
els and Shlnments were R49.000 hushels.
against receipts last year of 342,000 bush
els ana shipments of 388.000 bushels.
Clearances were atVtnOn hllshola nf enrn
1,000 bushels of oats, and wheat and flour
equal to 812,000 bushels.

CATTLE There was only one fresh car
of cattle In the yards, so that there was
nothing here upon whioh to place an esti
mate of the market for the out; en t day.
The feeling, however, was steady. For tne
Week receipts, though showing consider
able gain over last week, are below the
average of recent weeks and smaller than
for the corresponding week of laut year.
The large proportion of the cattle re
ceived this week has been made up of
cornfed steers, rejiginif in quality all tha
way from common to pretty good. Strictly
ohoioe or prime fed cattle have been few
and far between. Under the Influence of
the unfavorable conditions at the large
eastern consuming centers the week started
out with a poor demand at all points and
with a sharp decline in prices. This mar
ket suffered along with the others, but
toward the latter half of the week the
market steadied up somewhat and at tha
close tha general run of cornfed cattle are
1620o lower than last week's close. It
will be remembered that the market last
week was quoted 1525o higher, which
means that this week's decline has wiped
out all or very nearly all of last week's
advance. Heavy and plain cattle land com
mon, light, unfinished cattle have suf
fered the most decline, while medium or
light cattle in good flesh and good quality
have suffered the least.
Good, fat heifers havit been very active
sellers all week and tha market on such
cattle Is not far from steady with last
week's close. On the other hand the gen
eral run of cowa are VUSlBc lower. Bulls
have been in very good demand all the
week owing to a large ahlDDlnar demand
and they have commanded good steady and
in some cases xong prloes. Veal calves
have aold at aoout steady prices, the best
bringing 87.60.
Stookers and feeders have been In ex
tremely lljfht supply all week, and while
the demand has not been at all large, it
has really been In excess of the receipts,
so that the market every day has been
strong.

HOGS A fairly active market of limited
proportions developed In the hog yards this
morning. Prices advanced a nickel under
the Influence of healthy competition, and
bulk sold on thin basis. In spots, trade
appeared to be no better than steady, lack
of improvement being largely confined to
mixed offerings on the lard order. To off
set this phase of the situation, occasional
sales of light mixed were made that aver
aged a big nickel or possibly 6$10o higher.
Supplies were of usual Saturday volume,
and clearance was made at an early hour.
Packers furnished orders for the big end
of receipts and shippers were more or less
discriminating on the few selections 01 a
speculative nature. Extreme close had a
weak tone and final sales were little. If
any, stronger than yesterday's general
trade.
Good botcher animals ranged around
S6.96 and heavies sold at 86.86 and less.
Choice light grades made a top of $6.17Vi,
7Hc higher than yesterday's limit and 12 140
less than tha high price last Saturday.
Conditions surrounding the market dur
ing the week have been more or less bear
ish. Receipts were fairly large on all days
and cheaper cost was generally demanded.
Present prices show declines of IbtfJUo as
compared with those of a week ago.

SHKF Seven doubles of western ewes
were received today, but three of them
were sold to arrive, and four were too
common to Interest packers. The price
paid for the country-bought animals was
64.16. The market as a whole remained
quotebly unchanged.
During the week sharp declines have
been registered by killers, ail classes of

The mld-aeek situation at Chicago "beg
gared description." to quote an official
report, and the South Omaha market was
equally demoralised. It has been one of
the worst weeks in the sheep barn In many
months, and the amount of the decline
noted affords only a vague Idea of selling
difficulty. At rimes It was impossible to
obtain any kind of a bid.

AUDlTORlUItl
Makes Answer to Charges Made by
Commercial Club.
SAYS ITS CHARGES ARE TOST
Com pa a y Asaerta that the Reatal for
the Dalldlng Is Less Thaa 1st
Other Cities ft tha Sane
Class.
The attitude of the Commercial club with
reference to the change made In the good
fellowship banquet place from the Audi
torium to tha Rome hotel Is briskly re
sented by the Auditorium company, which
makes public a letter setting forth the
details nf the negotiations for the building
In which to hold the banquet.
The Commercial club had circulars
printed and distributed to members setting
out that "on account of an unreasonable
and arbitrary position on the part sf the
Auditorium management the goodfellow
shlp banquet will be held In th Rome
hotel."
The executive committee of the Audi
torium explains the "unreasonable and
arbitrary position" in the following letter
to The Bee:
"To the Editor of The Bee: A circular
letter Issued by the Commercial club of
Omaha reads: 'On account of an unreas
onable and arbitrary position on the part
of the Auditorium management the good
fellowship dinner will be held at the Rome
hotel and not at the Auditorium as here
tofore announced.
States Its Poaltloa.
"The management of the Auditorium de
sires to state for the benefit of the publlo,
as to what action on Its part constitutes
the alleged 'unreasonable and arbitrary po
sition.' .
"Some six weeks ago the Commercial
club applied for the use of the Auditorium
for one night and a date was assigned,
which they afterwards cancelled and ap
plied for a future date In April. In the
Interim at a meeting of the directors. It
was unanimously decided that the neces
sity had arisen to advance the charges for
the use of the Auditorium, which were
altogether too low and not in line with
rates charged by all other similar build
ings. Since the Commercial club had ap
plied for this date before this advance In
rates, they were allowed the old rate ($150),
to which they were neither legally, nor
morally entitled, as no contract was In
existence. They applied for possession and
use of the Auditorium on Friday, April 14,
to Install some twenty gas stoves and
build tables, giving complete use of the
building until Wednesday noon, April 19,
for which they refused to pay more than
$150. As a compromise the Auditorium
management offered them the building
from Sunday morning until Wednesday
noon for $300, which amount would only
be fair rental for one night. This Is what
they term 'unreasonable and arbitrary
treatment."
"In other cities having auditoriums' the
commercial clubs pay the regular rates
In effect to all other parties. In Des
Moines they pay $5,000 per annum for such
use as they win require for conventions,
banquets, etc., paying this amount whether
the building Is occupied or not. In Kansas
City the rat for one night for such an en
tertainment would be $360; in Milwaukee,
$300.
"The facta are that the auditorium man
agement offered the complete use of the
Auditorium to the Commercial elnh .
three and one-half days for $300. The as
sumption that the Auditorium was and
would ba idle durlnr that time. who. it
cuts no figure whatever. Is entirely gratuit
