OMAHA, Sept. 20. 1511.
The market opened leas warlike
There 1 a feeling that the grain trads
will b Hi tip effected an the trouble will
not be likely to spread. Weather condi
tions have Improved In then northwest
and there Is a man of new wheat to
market. The demand for hard wheat
und Improved prices hardly offset the
In arlshness in the Increases In stock
and the let up In the milling demand.
There haa been considerable liquidation
of long corn. The newa. however, haa
been bulllah wet wethear, light country
offerliiKK. strong cash valuea yet the
trade ahowa very little anap. If the
country offering continue light, valuea
will likely advance.
Wheat was duller today, war newa was
discredited and heavy receipts In the
northnest can Ned some longs to sell. Cash
wheat was atrong to lo rusher.
The trale In corn was well mixed and
valuaa were a bit easier. Newa continues
bullish and higher levels are likely.

CHICAOO, Sept 80 rrom a market
atandpolnt today the Italian-Turkish war
went to the Junk pile. Ho scant waa the
amount of new Investment that wheat
prices showed a decided decline, with the
close c to Ho under laat night. Corn
finished 14c lower to fto up. Oats down
a ahade to 540 and bog product a Irregu
lar from 2V0 higher to a drop of 22VjC.
Popular Indisposition to assume new
risks to carry over the week appeared
to net as a bar to whatever bullishness
might have developed In the wheat pit.
The bulla were further depressed by
heavy predictions that as many aa 1,000
carloada had been scheduled to arrlvo
Monday at Winnipeg. The only price
rally during the day followed rumors of
fighting between Greek and Turkish
forces, but the effect on traders quickly
wore off and the cloae waa unmistakably
weak. The range for lecetnber waa Ufcc
to 9M4c, with laat sale WVvuWo, a net
loas of MfMtO.
Wet weather strengthened the corn
market. Ixwember fluctuated between
MSo and U0, closing W4o up at 4c.
Cash grades were firm. No. 2 yellow
was quoted at 85V914e.
Helling pressure of a fairly Important
sort formed a weight In oata. The week's
receipts here were 800.0OU0 bushels more
than the shipments out. High and low
levels touched by December proved to be
4So and 47V with last sale a shade net
lower at 47fM74o.
Unloading by packers took the snap
out of provisions. The end of the day
left pork l&o to SOo lower; lard down
Be to 22V40 and rtba varying from Zo
gaTH to lityo decline.

Further Reduction of Short Interest
Main Influence of Day.
UPWAED MOVEMENT RESUMED
Official Declaration of Strike on
llarrlman Railroads Vlrtaally
Wlthoat K.ffect Mediae la
Foreign Kxchange,
NEW TORK. Sept. 30 -Further reduc
tion of the short Interest was the ninln
sprlng. which propelled the stock mar
ket today, and the rise which waa Inter
rupted yesterday by Italy a declaration
of war, was resumed. Evidence that the
short element had engaged In more cov
ering was abundant. The strength dis
played by United States Steel was a
logical result, the ahort Interest In this
stock apparently having reached unusu
ally largn proportions. United States
Steel closed at (US. a gain of 1 Va pointa
on the day and 10 points from the low
level of the recent break. Other atocka
varied as much.
Official declaration of the strike on the
Marrlman railroads was virtually without
effect.
There wsa a further decline today In
foreign exchange rates, which are now
nearly fiO.poInu lower than two days
ago. This decline, after several weeks
in which the tendency almost uniformly
upward, was attributed to the heavy
Influx of cotton bills an to the cessation
of liquidation of American stocks for
European account by the local market.
An Immediate Influx toward lower rates
was the engagement yesterday of nearly
31,l,OJ0 gold for shipment to Taris.
A small loss In surplus reserve was
recorded In, the bank statement. The
actuul table, which reflected the engage
ment of gold for shipment abroad, dis
closed a loss of 32.670.000.
American Tobacco prices showed slight
heaviness, but the bond market other
wise was firm. Total aalea par value,

CATTLE Receipts of cattle toclav were
of no consequence, there being only thlr-
leun cars reported in, whlcn was not
enough to make a market. For the week
receipts foot up S8,lo3 head, being the
largest thua far this year, but still show
ing a falling off of 4,u(J0 head aa com
pared with the same week of last year.
The receipts for the month foot up 127,ouO
head, which 1b a falling off of 45,000 head
as compared with the same month lasl
year and the smallest of any September
for several years.
While the market on beef steers showed
a Uttlo weakness on some days the loss
hus been recovered and at the close ot
the week beef steers are very close to
steady with a week ago. The best corn
fed ulcers here brought fi'.SO, which Is
within 10c of the extreme high price of
the year. The trade on most days wad
reasonably active and the market in a
good, healthy condition.
The chief feature of the week's trade
In cows and heifers was the Black de
mand for the better grades, due to the
fact that packers were securing a lat'se
supply of cheap btef steers, which took
the place of the cows. As a result of
this the better grades of cbwb and hell
ers are around lo&lSc lower for the week,
on the other hand, the common to me
dium kinds of cows known aji cannera
and cutters were In active demand every
day, and at the close of the week ate
fully steady with one week ago.
Stockers and feeders were in the hear
demand that they have been thus far tins
year, tne salea of that kind of cattle
being heavier than usual. Still the coun
try was not Inclined to allow prices to
advance very much, and in spite of the
active market prlcea are not over 10yiuc
higher than one week ago.

HOGS Sellers In the hog yards used
supply figures as a bullish argument, but
their efforts were not very successful.
Prices ruled a nickel hUher early, but
packers agreed to stronger prices only
under protest and movement scaleward
was at no time very active. Sales made
at the extreme cloae carried figures that
showed little, If any, improvement over
those of yesterday.
Yard estimate called for only forty
loads, and the actual offerings were
largely on the packing order. Nothing
really choice in the way of bacon ani
mals waa received wsi which to make
a representative top.
Shippers were fair buyers, from a per
centage view point, purchasing about
right loads of the better quality animals
on outside orders. Good packing gradea
sold largely at 8620 and bulk of business
waa at 36 20tf6.26. The best bacon weighta
on sale landed at 36.30, identical with
yesterday's high price.
During the week the main feature of
the trade was a steadily declining scale
of prices. The Blight reaction of yester
day, together with today's strength,
leaves the trade just about S5ff4oo under
the market a week ago. Supplies proved
seasonably moderate and the shipping
demand on most days lacked both tone
and volume.
Receipts of hogs for the month of Sep
tember are In round numbers 119.000 head,
showing a gain of about 17.000 head over
the starvation recelpta of September of
last year, and small Increases over the
corresponding months of 1909 and 19in,
but there Is a falling off ot 33,000 bead
as compared with l!aJ7.

SHEEP Absence of both fresh and
stale offerings In the sheep barn did not
lermlt of an actuul market and prices
In all branchea of the trade remained
nominal. Nothing was held over from
yesterday and the new estimate called
for only a handful of stock, not enough
to test values.
Final count on the week's supply gives
a total that easily exceeds the expectancy
at laat week a close. In the neighborhood
of 145000 bead of sheep and iambs were
received In all, most guesses a week ago
placing the run from UO.uOO to 126.UJO
head. Last week's marketing amounted to
only 13t,uu0 head, while receipts this week
roiled up s tolsl of over 16o,uuu head.
Despite this apparent decrease ship
ments were better distributed through-
j out the month and the present September
tecoru, nio..v neau. stanas Shove every
other September total ever made lo the
history of the South Omaha market.
Hulk of recent supply consisted of
lambs, mostly In feeder flesh, and the
demand on most days had healthy tone.
Everything cleared with lltle selling ef
fort, Tuesday's session being the . only
slow one. Fat lambs broke lira 15c at that
time but these losses have since been
recovered and the trade Is closing just
about Htcariv. Fancy lambs are quotable
as high as K-9", but the ordinary good
classes are selling around 36.60 80
Straight strings of fat lambs were rare
exceptions and packing supplies were
usually sifted out of the sorting gate.
Fat sheep ruled firm from the start
and show no quotable changes aa com
pared with a week ago. Toppy fat ewes
are still moving around f3.66 and choice
wethers touched the 34.00 mark on two
or thre occasions. Yearling trade was
rather uncertain, due largely to a meager
supply of "breakers."
Business In feeders kept Its usual form
and current valuea are pegged fully as
high as those of a week ago. If anything
feeder ewes show a lltt'e strength, but
the remainder of the list is almost Idem
tlcal wtih the same quotations laat Sat
urday. Iowa and Nebraska orders were
the mains supports, tidy ewea selling
around 82.90U3 00, with the better kinds
of feeder lambs moving at and above
86.15. Limit on feeder lambs remains at
86.30 and anything selling below 85.00 Is
not very respectable. According to pack
ers' tab, the week's buy on country ac
count amounts to 103.JO0 head, about 70
per cent of the receipts.

BIG BOOST OR BEEF TEA
Old Reliable Xoarlshment for the
Sick nestored to Its High
Estate.
Avaunt all detractors of beef tea., for
Dr. Thomas Darlington In the current
number of the New York Medical Journal
makes a demonstration of Its efficacy
which Is so convincing that the editor of
the publication cannot withhold the meed
of praise.
Dr. Darlington ts profesaor of sanitary
science at Fordham university and for
merly was president of the board of
health. Time was when beef tea and
broths were esteemed highly by physi
cians, and then came a race of practition
ers who knew not these homely aids to
convalescence, and said, "Really, beef
tea Is of no use at all." The aromatlo
fluid, disowned and scoffed at by the
medical fraternity for years, still was
consumed by millions of gallons In secret,
for the old-fashioned mothers Insisted
upon it.
Founding his Investigations upon the re
eent experiments of Dr. Parlow, Dr. Dar
lington haa made studies of the stomach
of men and animals, which he declares
demonstrate that beef tea and meat broth
generally Initiate a rapid digestion and
promote the assimilation of food. The
function of thin soup before a dinner also
Is explained, for all light meat broths are
shown to be of great dletelc value. He
finds that bread or white of eggs and va
rious other substances which are high In
nutritive value will lie for a long time In
the stomach without any appearance of
change, merely because they do not excite
the flow of the gastric juice, Initiator of
the digestive process.
"It is useful to know." continues Dr.
Darlington, "that when bread or egg al
bumen are eaten without appetite, water,
or, still better, broth or meat extract may
be used to play the part of the Igniting
material."
Dr. Darlington's analysis shows In beef
tea a large proportion of various chemical
salts which play an important part in
the protein metabolism and determine
chemical changes which are necessary to
life Itself. He also finds that the gelaUne,
although It has not all the attributes of a
tissue builder. Is of real value on account
of Its ready digestibility and because It Is
a protein sparer.
"Whatever may be lacking In broths,"
concludes the physician, "In the way of
energy yielding food material is supplied
readily In a combination with other ap
propriate substances. It Is not to be for
gotten, however, that the healthy diges
tion and complete assimilation of such
energy yielding foods requires an admix
ture of those qualities which we have seen
are contributed by the constituents of
meat broths."
Commenting on Dr. Darlington's article
the editor of the medical Journal states
that henceforth the physician may advise
beef tea and tea broths generally with a
clear conscience and scientific satisfac
tion. "They have triumphed over their
enemies and detractors," 'he says, "and
will resume their honored station on the
Invalid's tray as unapproachable adju
vants to digestion and assimilation, add
ing one more sample to the list of reme
dies founded on crass emprtclam and find
ing at last a common scientific basis for
their realson d'etre." Tew York Herald.
NOVEL USES OF ALUMINUM
Marvelous Increase la Prod art la
Twenty Years and Its Diverse
I'tlllty.
For several years France was the only
country producing aluminum. The num
ber of French aluminum factories has
Increased In the region of the Alps, espe
cially In the Department of Savole, where
there are six establishments. With the
two other French factories It Is estimated
that the total output ts considerably
above 25.000 tons annually.
The reduction plant established in TSS9
at Neuhausen In Swltserland haa . had
almost successful existence. Starting with
an annual production of forty tons ot
aluminum. It turned out no less than 2,621
tons In the first nine months of 1910, val
ued at more than fS40,00a The company
has several branches, all of which are
operating successfully. Its stock has
never yet paid less than 13 per cent; in
1904 It paid 26 per cent on a par value of
1.000 franca (8193).
The Swiss control of the aluminum
market, which had existed for several
years, passed away with the opening of
the American factories at Niagara, says
Consulsr and Trade Reports. Neither
Switzerland nor France possesses such
sources of electrical energy as the I'nlted
States. Negotiations were begun a year
ago with the view of limiting the produc
tion of aluminum and keeping up the
prices, but owing to the attitude of the
American producers the movement has
not been successful up to this time. .
Aluminum has become Indispensable la
the construction ot automobiles, dirigible
balloons and aeroplanes. It la employed,
also In paper decorations and lor wrap
ping purposes. It haa been found ot
enormous advantage also in the textile
Industry.
Combined with silk It makes a brilliant
fabric, which ran be given any desired
color and which cannot ba excelled. for
making ceremonial costumes and theatri
cal wardrobes. In addition to the ordi
nary uses It is also employed in the man- '.
ufacture of reticules, scarfs and various
articles of use and ornament, and be
cause of the high price of copper It ha
been largely used as a substitute for that
metal in the manufacture of electrical-cables.
SEES THE EIGHTH WONDER
rnyalelan Who Lost Ills Sight lajj
World Tonr Has Ills Eyes
Restored.
"I have seen the seven natural wonders)
of the world, and the seven meohanical
wonders ot the world, and now I see the
greatest surgical and scienutlc wonder oE
my life the recovery of my eyesight."
It waa after going out on the streets
yesterday for the first time In eight years
unaccompanied by a guide who, by the1
way, for four years has been his de-;
voted wife that Dr. H. L. Chapln ot
Cleveland mado this assertion.
Through the marvelous operation per
formed last week by Dr. Arnold Knapp
upon the eyes of the Cleveland surgeon, f
Dr. Chapln owes his return as he char
acterises lt "back to nature."
It was through his great love of nature
that he lost his eyesight, for It was),
caused through the glaring light on the'
sands of the Assyrian desert, where he
had gone shortly after his graduation,
from college on his inspection of the
"seven wonders of the world." j
"I was on my way to see the Hanging)
Gardens of Babylon, and like all strong,
enthusiastic fellows out ot college, I dis
regarded all the ordinary precaution
that older, more seasoned travelers take,,
and would neither wear the tarboush or!
the turban not even dark glasses. Eight-:
en months later I became blind through!
an attack of Irldo syclytis, brought about
through that desert sun."
It waa after having had the first ter-'
rlble attack that finally brought on blind-'
ness that Dr. Chapln, who is 37 years old,
met and married the woman who now'
bears his name. During their courtship
he told her much of his travels, and one
of the promises to her when they became)
betrothed was that Bhe should go with.'
him on a trip around the world. 1
He became so blind that she had to
lead him about, but despite that 1iandl-:
cap they took the promised trip, and
both declared yesterday that nothing In
the years to come could take away from
the wonderful, experience.
"I have never known a person with,
such an accurate and retentive memory.
and never once In the 30,000 miles or mora
that wo wended our way, in every known1
vehicle of civilization or barbarism, did)'
he ever direct me wrongly," she said. - '
"And never once did she make a mls-i
take in my directions," the doctor cour
teously added.
"But when tho bandages were taken)!
off after the operation, last week, did,
you expect that your eyesight would,
really be recovered?" he waa asked.
"I had every confidence in Dr. Knapp,
but I did not have any mora confidence)'
than he did, and In a case of such dell-!
cate surgery, snd of such rare opera
tion, no one could know definitely tho'
outcome. But .when I actually did see, I
and I realized what had come to me, my1
eyes filled. I was again blinded by tears,
for it semed too good to be true," said1
ths physician. New York American, j

PROPOSED CALENDAR REFORW
Change In Months and Holidays,
I'roposrd by llrltlah Parlia
mentary Bill. J
Some novel proposals are contained its;
the fixed calendar bill presented by Sir.
Henry Dalzlel and supported by Mr. j
Wllkle, Mr. Prlngle and Munroe Fergu
son. The memorandum accompanying;
the text of the bill. Issued today, ex-1
plains that the measure purposes to sub-
stitute for the present Irregular calendar'
a fixed calendar having regular periods,!
ot which the week is a common measura.
It differs in some Important feature
from the calendar reform bill Intro-1
duced on March 16, IMS,, by Robert)
Pearce. That bill sought to make the'
months as uniform In length as possible, 1
but as a difference in this respect Is un-'
avoidable In a year with twelve months
it ts thought better to increase that dif
ference so as to allow of the week be
ing a common measure of all the months,
This- arrangement makes tt possible for
each month to begin on a Sunday and 1
end on a Saturday.
The memorandum points out that, si- I
though the making of a definite and reg
ular difference between the lengths of ;
the months does not Introduce any new I
olement into the meaning of the word
"month," seeing that the months already
llffer in length. It haa been thought well ,
to codify the present rule determining
monthly periods and to make a rule re- ,
gardlng the computing ot monthly sal-
arlea. The bill provides that the condi- 1
lions of labor on New Year day and j
Leap day, and also ' the remuneration ,
thereof shall conform as far as possible '
to what prevails on Sundays.
In meeting the desire for a fixed date J
for each of the moveable holy days tt
has been thought sufficient to -iact a 1
fixed date only for Easter, whi- h Is to
be upon -April 15, as all the others are '
calculated from the date of Easter. As
In Mr. Pearce's bill and In the calendar .
act of 1751. provision Is made regarding J
the comings of age and other events 1
which may be affected by the passing !
of this bill. ,
The bill. If passed by Parliament, will
not become operative until the crown de- !
cldes that sufficient International con- j
currence has been secured. '
A table giving the proposed fixed cal- j
endar shows that the months of Janu- 1
ary, February. April. May, June, July. I
August, October and November would
each consist of twenty-eight days, while ,
the remaining months of March, June,
September and December would each
have thirty-five days. New Year day is j
set apart, thus bringing the total of days '
up to the requisite number of 365, whiie 1
for leap years a special day Is set apart
as Leap day. which Is to be lntercalcu- !
lated between the lat day of June and j
the first day of July as reconstituted by 1
the bill.
A clause of the bill lays it down that '
ths New Yesr day and Leap day shall
neither of them be accounted days of ths f
week, and shall not, except where spe-
dally mentioned or provided for, be held j
to be included in any computation ot ,
days, but shall otherwise be public ba
holidays. London Glob.
