An Invasion of the Northwest Territory, Canada, by the black rust had the attention of the wheat trade this afternoon. Largely as a result the market closed at a net gain of c to 3c. Other cereals, too, showed an advance over lust night, corn iiUc, and oata Vu74 to W4c, In provisions the outcome varied from unchanged to a rise of 12V40. Wheat emerged from an easy position early to a strong one at the- wlndup. A decline during the first part of the day was the consequence of news about Morocco being less warlike and of pros pects that world's shipments would be large. Selling, however, was overdone. The seaboard kept constantly reporting ocean freight room engaged and there were ves sel charters here at rates which Indicated a tendency to harden. It was the renewed uneasiness about black rust, though, which turned sentiment firmly to the bull side. At the ensuing advance a steady tone pre vailed, closing figures being not far from the top level reached. During the session September ranged from 87H89c, with last sales Ho up at 884o. Predictions that the next .report by the government would be of a radically bullish sort swung tha corn market around fTom weakness to strength. September fluctuated between 62o and 63c, closing steady tt 6 Ho over last night, at ffligfaHe. Cash grades were firm; No. 1 yellow finished at 62HW3C, Oats rallied because sales from the coun try were less free. High and low levels touched by the September delivery were 40c and 39V4c, with the closing 40c, a net advance of Sa. With hogs and grain on the up grade, provisions ruled firm. In the end pork waa the same as last night, to 12V4c up, lard 6c to 12tyfrl5o gain and rlba a shade to b'i 7V4c Increase In cost. The leading futures ranged as follows: Articles. Open. I Hlgh. Low.

In clines were more raplu and extensive man had been the case In several weeks. Con solidated Oas being almost the only stock of sny prominence to score an advance. lyondon selling and a continuation of yes terday's bear raid seemed to be chiefly responsible for today's further sftback. The pressure from abroad was simultaneous with reports of the British premier's speech on the Moroccan entanglement. Estimates of the selling for Ixindon ac count ran from 50,000 to 75,000 shares. Canadian Pacific, which fell back nearly 3 points, was the heaviest loser among the I stocks declined nearly a much. A number standard Issues, altnougn tne immmnn of Industrials. Including United mat Steel, Westinghouae Electric. American Reel Sueur International Harvester and InterborouKh Metroolltan preferred, were distinctly heavy. Buying of the coal stocks was continued on a large scale for the third successive day. Trading In Reading during the first hour of the session constituted more than one-third of the whole. Reading touched 100. Ita highest point for more than two months, but fell back with the general market. It was learned today that steps toward "recreating" the American Tobacco com pany In conformity with the decision ot the United States supreme court are under way. Peclaratlon of the usual dividend on St. Paul was followed by some buying of that stock, although Its recovery was not large. The official crop report of the St. Paul shows generally favorable conditions In Its territory; with an especially good g4n In South Iakota. where destruction of the spring wheat by drouth was feared for a time. i The bond market was easy.

Other buyers 815 1,634 Totals 2.S62 6.847 6,678 CA'iTLE Receipts of cattle were the lowest of the week so far. only 2,500 head being reported. However, this makes the total for the week 18,400 head, a gain ot almost 6,000 head, as compared with the same days last week. On the other hand, there Is a falling off of almost 3.000 head aa compared with the same period a year ago. The market today aa a whole was In very satisfactory condition, as viewed from a seller's standpoint. With only a few beef steers in sight and with the demand very good, the market opened very early and active, with prices steady to a little stronger than yesterday. Practically everything in sight changed hands before 10 o'clock In the morning. As high aa $6.80 was paid for the best cattle on sale, this being vhe highest price of the year thus far. As a matter of course. It will be readily understood that the cattle coming to market are Improving In quality as the season advances. Cows and heifers were also very free sellers, the trade being active and prices strong, as compared with yesterday. The supply was soon exhausted, the market closing for the want of more cattle to sell before 10 o'clock In the morning.

Tne market scored an advance of a big dime, ail weights showing fast action at better figures. About 106 loads made up total re ceipts and as this estimate waa hardly large enough to apllt up Into droves of moderate else buyere wasted no time In getting down to bualness. The yarda were practically cleared at 8:80 o'clock. Shipping ordera still played a prominent part In furnishing trade support and prob ably twenty loads of extra quality, all weights, were purohaaed on outside ac count. In faot, the demand was "rattling good" from all quarters, packers taking all classes with no more than usual price discrimination to ehow preference. Fully 0 per cent of the entire supply sold at between $8.50 and $4.80, beat bacon weights reaching $6.70. This top not only shows a dime gain over yesterday'a limit, but Is also higher than any top made since March, when $7.10 was touched on one er to occasions. . Representative sales: He. At. B.

I 10 RHKKP Bearish feeling still pervaded the market for sheep, but good UmM proved ready sel'era and held up well In most instsnces. Receipts amounted to fully twenty loads, the big end of the run com ing from rnnge sections. I-ambs were more plentiful than wethers, yearlings, etc., and duality in the latter branch of the trade waa nothing to brag about. Most arrivals had plenty of fleh for killing purposes, Idaho contributing bulk. Lambs were among the first to sell. Ida hos reaching $7.00. Small bunches of lambs from the cornbelt were :n very fair re quest and In one or two Instsnces where offerings were toppy, prices passed t!i.i even money mark. As a whole, the lamb market ruled Just about steady. Sheep, however, are becoming a trifle unpopular because of recent predominance of wethers in supply ns well as the fact that sellers hnve been slow In following the bearish course of the marKet at other points. A large portion of business In fat sheep showed deMlnes of bUi'lnc. p-ood wethers from Wyoming moving at I3.R5. Yesterdsy's top In big muttons was $4.16, but 4410 would probably stop something choice In this line at present. Good fst ewes moved around 3.50fi3.66. Feeder sorts were too light to tell very much about trade conditions, but usual wide spreads are still in force. Thin sheep have been selling at dollar discounts from fat sheep, while lambs are even cheaper at 81.60fil.75 spreads. Country demand thus ! far hns been very conservative. nnilKC Biairn linvv luiiiiniu-u niuei ui K moderate four days' supply .this week Wethers have been running freely, ewes rather scarce and fully 75 per cent of the totnl had killing finish. Fat sheep are closing at losses of 104?25e from a week ago, while lambs show declines of about a dime.

BE BOOSTED Situation In Omaha Is Found to Be Similar to Those Which Existed tn Des Moines Before Pub lic Market Was Started. Omaha may face the same conditions which now exist In Des Moines, la., rela tive to the high cost of living, for accord ing .to a statement made- by the head of one of the largest stores In Orriaha, a clique of local grocers is adopting the same meth ods adopted by the grocers "trusts" in Des Moines, and the prloes set by this clique, .which are already steep, may be gin to soar soon, so that a replica of tha Des Moines trouble may start here. In Des Moines, nearly all of the grocery stores and provision companies are banded together In a grocers' association, which )s organised ostensibly to promote the grocers' Interests. It soon developed Into a miniature trust, and the grocery interests In that city were promoted so much that the citizens arose In wrath and established a municipal market In a city square. Commercial Club Investlgatee. The Commercial club of Des Moines ap pointed a committee to Investigate the cause of the high prices, and found that the present year was one of the best In many seasons for fruit, vegetables, etc., and that the only apparent reason for the high prices was the agreement of the grocers. hls committee sent to Omaha, and se cured copies of the Bee, World-Herald and News, and clipped from each advertise ment of the various grocery stores. Sur prise crowned their efforts, for It was dis covered that "one store was selling pro visions at from 10 to 26 per cent less than others, and that the Omaha prices In the majority of cases were almost as high as those In Des Moines. The press In Des Moines carried several columns ,on these facts, reproducing ads In Omaha papers, and when Investigation was started here. It waa found that the grocers' clique here was similar to the "as sociation" In Des Moines, and that should the notion strike them, edibles here could soar aa high aa suited the fancy of the leaders ot the organisation.

The mothers and children came for din ner at noon and spent the afternoon, the kiddles playing on the lawn and the women reminiscing and singing the songs of their girlhood "Die Wacht am Rhine" and "Die Lorelei." All of the' children attend 6t Joseph's school nearby and the women be long to Bt. Mary Magdalene church.

Miss Heglund had gone to her aunt's store at Forty-eighth and Cuming street Monday afternoon to buy some candy, had mado tho purchase and left With the exception of a cousin who saw her down town later that aftrrnoon, that was the last seen of her until found bv her aunt Tha nrrvlnm wmW she hail ben anffei ing from a severe headache and had been !a little out of her head. Although she waa placed under medical care and put In ber, her condition at that time was not thought serious. Girl la I'nhnrmed. Dr. A. A. Edgington, who has had charge of the case, made a thorough 'examination Thursday and pronounced the girl un- i harmed In any way, expressing It ss his opinion that there were no grounds whatso ever upon which to base an abduction. His only fear Is that some pulmonary trouble I may develop as a result of the exposure. The origin of the fire, from which Mrs. Carlson was returning when she found her ward and niece, was evidently- Incen diary, a thing which Is Inexplicable by the neighbors who vouch for the fact that Mrs. Carlson had no enemies. The fire was plainly started from the outside of the building on the west by someone who bored a hole Into the casing and poured oil Into It. The fire worked Its way up" the side of the building, which Is a double frame structure, and badly gutted the In terior, doing perhaps 81,000 worth of dam age in all. Four companies responded to the alarm and after their arrival soon had the fire extinguished. Mrs. Carlson was out all Wednesday evening with her nephew, Verner Okel- bloom, searching for the lost girl, and waa ras tad nearly frontlc when she returned home 11:30 o'clock unsuccessful. Okelbloom had left but a few minutes for his home at Forty-sixth and Ixard streets when Mrs. Carlson heard a noise and saw a figure out by the chicken house. She thought it was someone after the chickens, but was afraid to go out. Very probabhy It was the missing girl for whom they were searching, for when she returned from the fire she found Miss Heglund lying uncon scious on a piece of rug In the weeds back ui uiv viiii-nou iiuubv. a iiere were no Sign oi a struggle, ana it was fairly evident that tne gin naa wandered back after days of aimless wandering of her own volition.
