Ing Good Progress ta All

OMAHA. July 8. 1911
Weather conditions In tne northwest
are still very favorable, report coming
in being exceptionally flattering. The
foreign cables were decidedly weak and
coupled with very large world's ship
ments. The bearish feeling of last week
is mill the leading sentiment among the
wheat traders. Wet harvesting conditions
in the southwest Is about aU the bulls
have to look ' forward to In hopes of
checking the decline.
In corn the action has been so decided
on the selling side and prices have had
such a decline that conservative inter
ests are inclined to think there has been
break enough.
Forcing weather continues over the
corn belt and the crop is making Rood
progress and unless a change to unfavor
able weather takes place the selling pres
sure will likely continue.'
Wheat was under selling pressure again
today. News was bearitm and crop re
ports and weather all favorable. Cash
wheat was lc lower.
The corn market eased with news all
bearish and cables decidedly weak. Crop
reports are more favorable and great
progress is being now made by the back
ward crop. Cash corn was unchanged to
W nigner.

CHICAGO GRAlX AD PROVISIONS
Features of the Trading and Closing
Prices on Board of Trade.
CHICAGO. July .-Althougk a storm
vi jwiung louny causea wneat prices to
break more than 3 cents, the market
later recovered much of the loss. Closing
figures were firm at He to 8c under
. Saturdiy night Latest trading left corn
to s net higher, oats varying
from Vc off to e up and provisions
strong, from Ho decline to an advance
of 7!4c. r
In the wheat pit a heavy amount of
selling came from important longs who
were conspicuous In a similar unloading
process last week. There were signs, too,
that the northwest waa letting go of
.wheat here. All the messages from that
direction told of Ideal field conditions
both sides of the Canadian line and af
forded basis for talk of a bumper yield
In1 the spring crop belt. Bearish senti
ment received a considerable Impetus,
wlng to the prevalence of ' brilliant
weather for threshing and marketing
southwest. Depressed cables and lack of
elevator room here counted likewise
against the bulls.
The recovery of the wheat market from
a seml-demorallsed state appeared to be
due in the main to the fact that liquida
tion had come to an end. A further
help to prices came through the action
of shorts taking profits. ,
Timely assistance from the bulls developed-
besides in the visible supply de
crease, which reached a round total of
nearly 2,000,000 bushels. September fluc
tuated from 8SHc to 99c with last sales
8ttt4c, a loss or net.
The Washington crop report expected
tomorrow, formed the pivot that turned
the' corn market In an upward direction.
Private experts estimated that the gov
ernment report would show a relatively
low condition and that the acreage would
be smaller than had been supposed, Sep
tember swung from 66c to 67Hc, closing
firm c up at 6744c. Cash grades were
only fn moderate demand. N. 2 yellow,
,70f70O. -
Firmness ruled the oats pit. September
ranged between 85H35Hc and &c, with
the close exactly the same as Saturday
night. M38c.
In the end pork and lard ranged from
Saturday night's level to 12Vo off, but
bacon waa PfrfflWc up.

Market Feverish and Erratic and
Traders Are a Bit Careful
MOST COMMODITIES ARE LOWER
Some UafaTorable Crop Conditions
Are Expected to Be shown by
the Government Report
of Today.
NEW YORK, July 8.-Lat week's poor
bank statement, which uncovered an
actual deficit in the reserves and a much
larger loss of cash than waa expected
and the chances of an unfavorable show
ing in the monthly statement of the
Copper producers and the government
crop report, both of which are to be
Issued tomorrow, combined to produce a
weak and feverish stock market today.
Prices of the more active shares made
an average decline of - over two points
with a large part of the selling center
ing about Amalgamated Copper and
United State Steel. . There waa further
evidence today of the artificiality attach
ing to the copper market here anJ
abroad, metal stocks suffering a severe
reversal in the London market. Anion
the specialties traded in here, the weak
est securities were those embraced in
the tobacco group. Lowest prices were
cored in the last hour, but final deal
ing were .marked by some short cover
ings, which helped to produce a feeble
recovery. - -: '
- One effect ' of the unfavorable bank
statement was a general hardening of
rates, both for call and time loans.
Much of today's call money was placed
at $ per cent while ail time maturities
over three months advanced per cent.
The bond market waa broader and
more active. Total . sales, par . value,
aggregated $2,315,000,

CATTLE Receipts of cattle of all kinds
were very light .today, there being hardly
enough to really make a good, active mar
ket. - The marKet, however, was in very
fair condition tS a whole. .
There was a reasonably good demand
for - deslrabis beef cattle and one bunch
of good, killers sold as high as $9.50, the
highest price ever paid In the history of
this market The trade as a whole was
quoted as - steady, with the best kinds
possibly strong.
While the trade on cows and heifers
was not particularly active there was a
good demand, and the bulk of the offer
ings chanced hands In fair season. Prices
did not show any very great change as
compared with last week's close, and tney
were fully , steady and In spots possibly
strong.-. , '-.
There were only a few small lots of
stockers and feeders included In the day's
receipts, while at the same time there
was a pretty good speculative demand.
The result . Was that everything In sight
commanded . good, firm prices.
Quotations on -cattle: Good to choice
beef steers, $8.400.25; fait to good beef
steers, $7.9088.40; common to fair beet

H0G3 With only a small supply of
hogs on, hand this morning the market
opened early with a good demand for
good light hogs.' Both packers and ship
prs bought at the opening at steady to
strong prices, but after the bulk of the
hog had changed hands and the more
urgent orders were filled .trade eased off,
the market toward the close being weak
to possibly a five lower than at the open
ing.. As of late A preference was shown
for good light . hogs over the. heavies.
Bulk of the sales might be quoted as
within the range of $7.152j7.25. A load of
good light hogs mads a top. at $7.35
which is 6' cents 'higher than the high
est price for a full load on Saturday's
market . Trade was fairly active all the
morhlng and 'nearly everything had
changed. hands. by. 10:30 o'clock. While
good heavy hogs sold quite well, al
though not. as high as light weights, it
would be well to thoroughly understand
that heavy and rough packing hogs are
very hard to move, even at bottom prices.
Receipts for the-' day amounted to
about -73 loads, the proportion of heavy
hogs being small and not of very good
queUty.. On the other hand quite a few
light hogs -showed good quality. -

Trusty Prisoner
Fells Guard and
Undergoes Siege
NEW TORK, July 8.-Keepers of the
Tombs prison and a large squad of po
lice were held at bay for several hours
tonight by a "trusty" prisoner, who
two hours before had felled a guard with
a cold chisel, armed himself with the
guard's . six-shooter, and , fortified him
self In a manhole In the prison yard.
The outbreak brought the 6S7 prisoners
to the verge of panic.
The prisoner is George Wltson, a
chaffeur, who had been assigned to
kitchen work. It Is believed he hid after
bis day's work In a vault almost under
the "Bridge of Sighs," leading to the
criminal court - building. He emerged
by way of a manhole in the prison yard,
crept upon Guard Wlllim Hoolihan
when his back was turned and felled him
with the chisel, seizing the guard's gun.
As' he disappeared In the vault he fired
a shot at Hoolihan, but it went wide.
The guard gave an alarm and mustered
all the "twenty-five keepers, who set
about firing toward the manhole, trying
to draw fire from the prisoner, but up
to midnight it was believed that he still
had five shots left In his gun.
Deputy . Warden Nicholas ' Jones said
at midnight that no further effort would
be made to capture the man until after
daybreak unless he invited gunplay by
making a break from his hiding place.
