CHICAGO GRAIN AND PHOVISIOIVS
Feat area of tha Trad Ins; and Cloalaa;
Prlpea on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, April 27.-Favora.hle ralrui In
Germany, France and the Axgentlne, as
well as In the United State today, worked
In the direction of lower prices for wheat.
The close left the market &o under last
nljrht. In com there was a net decline of
!iHo to V'e. and In oats a loan of Ho
to Vq"He. At the final gong hog products
'varied from last night's level to 174a2oa
below.
The wheat market finished steady, but
at nearly the bottom prices of the session.
Most of the selling was by longs, who at
the outset bnlHtered up the May option In
an effort to frighten the bears. Dispatches
telling of beneficial moisture and warmth
caine from so many sources, however, that
the market failed of effect. Then, too, the
cash trade was alow not only here, but In
the norihwest. The final touch of weak
ness followed report that seeding for the
spring crop In that section was now far
advanced. During the day July ranged
between AGf&87o. closing VrfHiO down,
at 86Vg7c.
Increased country sale bad even more
to do with overturning an advance In corn
than did the action of wheat. July
fluctuated from and closed weak,
at fcfuMVko, down "o from laat night. Cash
grades were steady. No. yellow finished
at WfiWKe.
Liberal sales by lontra took the edge off
the oats market. Hlirn and low limits for
July proved to be S2o and Sl'c, with last
aales at 810, a net decline of Vtiiftka.
Provisions dragged, Western packing;
centers nave cut up Liu.wu more noKS
. since March 1 than, was the case twelve
months back. The day ended with pork
unchanged to IRo off. lard down 7"4(ifi0o.

MARKET GROWS DULL ON DECLINE
Hear Traders Fear to Operate Boldly
and There Is Utile Pressure
to Sell Mocks on the
Decline.
NEW YORK. April 27. -The slow advance
which has been In progress In the stock
market most of the week was Interrupted
suddenly In the midst of today's session
when publication of the March earnings of
the Harriman lines gave the list a pro
nounced setback.
Southern Pacific reported a decrease of
84.s7.wo In net earnings and Union Paclflo
8346.000. This showing was regarded as
especially unsatisfactory In view of reports
which the street had heard In the last few
days that these roads would make un
usually good exhibits.
Trading was less active than yesterday,
the market growing dull on the decline.
There was little pressure to sell stocks on
the decline, bear traders fearing to operate
boldly. The morning gains were elimi
nated In most cases and the close showed
small losses on the day in place of the
correspondingly small advances of the pre
vious days of the week.
Certain Isolated Issues Including traction
stocks were strong. Amalgamated Copper
was heavy probably on account of the
Belling of stocks purchased earlier In the
week. Trading In United States Steel was
less active, but that stock constituted the
market's barometer In that buying and
selling of these shares were closely scruti
nized by those who think the Immediate
future of the market Is dependent on cgn
dlttons In the steel and Iron Industry.
Gold to the amount of 85TiO,00O was
shipped to Canada todav and a currency
transfer of $150,000 was made to San Fran
cisco, making a total transfer of 31.luO.0iX)
to the latter city this week.
Some plain evidence of the confidence
with which the outcome of Mexico's diffi
culties Is awaited, was afforded by the sale
to a New York syndicate of 810.000.000 of
two-year 44 per cent notes of the National
Hallways of Mexico.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle were light,
only 90 cars being reported In, which leaves
the total for the week to date at 18,500 head,
as against 20,4X head for the same days
last week and 18,450 head for the same
period a year ago. To make another com
parison, the receipts for the four days tills
week are the lightest for a number of
weeks back.
Buyers picked out a few of such light
and handywelght cattle as Just happened
to suit their requirements, paying fully
steady prices with yesterday. The trade
the first round looked a little brisk and here
and there could be- found a salesman who
thought that possibly it might be strong.
Whatever activity took place at the begin
ning was shortlived and the trade settled
down Into a slow and at the best no more
than, steady market. Undesirable kinds of
big heavy, coarse cattle were hard to move
and It was a question If they were fully
Bteady In all cases.
The supply of cows and heifers was so
limited that It did not take buyers long to
effect a clearance of everything In sight.
As a rule sellers were quoting It as a
steady market, there being little or no
change in either direction.
There were no stock cattle or feeders of
any consequence In Bight and not enough
to really make a market. The reeling, bow.
ever, was Just about steady.

' HOOS Hog trade settled at steady prloes
this morning, bulk of a good sized run
clearing readily. About 200 cars were re
ceived and all weights, ranging from light
bacon to heavy lard offerings, were repre
sented. Despite the fact that fresh re
ceipts give a total for the week thus far
that is over three times as great as the
four days' total last year, killing gangs
on full time Indicate that actual stocks are
none too heavy
Demand from packers was lively from
the start and big droves were put up with
little delay. Shippers and speculators pro
vided orders for about one-eighth of the
supply, but usually discriminated In favor
of good butchers and light mixed. Clear
ance at 10:30 a. m. was practically com
plete. Spreads between different weights
showed little change, 5.SO(t5.86 embracing
narrow bulk. Lard animals sold at 85.75
and less, while good bacon grades ranged
at and above 85.90. Tops at 86 Oo show a
nickel margin under yesterday's lone top
of 86 05.

SHEEP Much of the business transacted
In the sheep barn this morning averaged
a little lower than yesterday's trade. Prices
ranged from weak to a dime off on
medium as well as extra good offerings,
but the demand at these levels was reason
ably active. Shorn lambs, well conditioned
and of good quality, attracted best Inquiry
and frequently sold to better advantage
than other classes of stock.
Supplies had very fair volume with usual
asosrtment. Western bred animals pre
dominated In the run and woolsklns were
the exception tc the rule. Mexican strings
were largely confined to wooled lambs
shipped by various Nebraska feeders who
handle that kind of animals each year.
There were few handy wooled western
lambs on sale.
Choice Mexicans still In the fleece sold
up as high as 85.90, Indicating a 85.00 limit
for staple westerns. Shorn lambs weighing
around So to 90 pounds brought as much
as 85. 601-5. 66. These prloes show very nar
row margins under extreme quotation tor
shorn Mexicans, Spring lambs have prao
tlcally quit coming, so that condition of
trade la nominal.
The sheep market presented a weaker
appearance, but no very reliable test of
the entire list of values was possible.
Shorn ewes, similar to the 83.75 kind Tues
day went at 83.65 and shorn 'vethers
dropped from 84.00, also a Tuesday's sale,
to 8-195. Other offerings, both wooled and
shorn, sold at figures relatively as weak.

WASHINGTON, April 27. Refusal of th)
Interstate Commerce commission to permit
the principal railways of the west to ad- .
ranee their rates on the transportation ot
cement, for the reason that the carrier
are alleged to need additional revenue, la
the feature of a decision handed down to
day In the Important, Portland cement case.
General advances bf from H to 6 cents
a hundred pounds In rates on cement were
prepared by the carriers In trans-Missouri
territory to become effective Sept. 1. 1910,
and affected a territory which produce
approximately two-thirds of the Portland,
cement made In the I'nlted States.
Cement Is a commodity of comparatively
low grade In transportation, but In com
mercial bulk Is exceeded only by coal. Iron
ore and grain. The advances proposed
were attacked by producers and shipper)
and, pending an Investigation the commis
sion suspended them first until November!
1, 1910, and subsequently until July L 191L
The points of destination to which tha
proposed rates apply cover a wide range
of territory extending from Illinois and
Tenitcssee on the east to the Rocky Moun
tain errltory on the west and Involve
rates throughout the country.
In the opinion promulgated today
which was prepared by Commissioner Mo
Chord, some of the advances are sustained
and many of them are disapproved. The
commission did not accept as decisive the
statement of the carriers that present
cement rates are so low as to be unrein tin
eratlv and that the commodity does not.
bear Its Just proportion of the burden Ot
transportation, the testimony on that fea
ture of the case being regarded as "very

W. E. REED IS AGAIN AFTER
THE SENATORIAL TOGA
Madison Man Makes His Announce
ment Early in - the
Game,
The first light to brighten the dernocratla
horiion for the next senatorial campaign
has been lit by Willis E. Reed of Madison,
who ran for the nomination last year and
was defeated by Hitchcock. Mr. Reed waa
In Omaha Thursday, and although loath to
make a formal statement of candidacy, ad
mitted that he la getting ready. "A year
ahead may seem a little too early to begin
a political campaign," said Mr. Reed, "but
there are many preliminaries to bo taken
care of and I have determined that my
campaign next time shall not bo aa short
as waa the laaL
'I was in the fight only about sixty days
last fall, but next year I shall be In It
from the very beginning, and for that
reason I expect to get the nomination,
"I irel very sure that if there are no
factional splits in the democratic party
we will have a chance to make our rep
resentation In Washington two Instead of
one. 60 that I can have a fair chance of
being the second one I am closing; up my
business affairs now so that they will bo In
running order and give tha freedom to
make a long fight.
"I expect tbat the republican nominee
will be Congressman Norrie. Mr. Kennedy
of Omaha has the advantage if he carea
to run of being a Missouri river man, and
the solid vote of this end of the stats
would elect or nominate anyone.
"E. H. Thompson and Ash ton C. Shalktn
berger will probably be th other demo
cratic aspirant for the toga. Shalienber
ger ha been considered a candidate for a
long time and Thompson, although he ha
made no announcements, will, I am sure,
enter th race."
