io THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 9, 1912.. GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET , .The Export Demand for Wheat is t Very Brisk. SEPTEMBER COEN IS STRONG Oat Bull Admit That Taere Will Be m Heavy HoTemeit of Crop Wlthl. a Very Short ..' Walle. . OMAHA. Aug. 8. 1911 The export imand for wheat Is very brisk, but it lates much of Its force as a bull influence lc- the fact that the pur chase are mos.lly for shipment the r.nt ten dayF. There are wry few bids for heat after Aumist 20. This 1 taken to mean that the oemand will fall off .ry boon. It also prolsably means that Euiope expects to buy heat iro.n Canada and Russia after this month. All the 1.01 th west reports are f fettering on the harvest promise this side yf the line. Experts say that the yleKq for Canada will be about the same as It year aco. The feel ing in the lacal trtde Is unquestionably bearish for the late tnonthn und about the only thing to guard .against Is Mie posf-l- biiity of an oversow local, trade, casn wheat lc higher.. There seems lo be Utile doubt but that f-eptember corn In li a strong position because It is at suclia great discount under the cash level, true! nwhtt shown this almost each day py quick, strong rally for the early mpntfis. It Is need less to take chances cm the selling side of the September conti arts. Those trad ers who believe in a &0e'.le-el for the late months have plenty of Beuway In selling the December and May options. Some of the former bull leaders are now most active on the selling sldy'of May corn. It should not be ignored It at transactions in the late monlhs will (be governed by any important change In weather or crop conditions and the map a'lould be watched closely. Cash corn was unchanged to lc higher. , There never has been eucji a crop of oats as this sear. Many practical grain dealers are of the opinicn that the offi cial report Is under the facc. Bulls ad mit there will be a large crop movement In a short while. The sanation looks 'bearish, but around a 3Vj level trader believe that even the bearaJwill he ready i to take ptoflts on short Uriei.

J.-Anxlety- over a pos sible surprise In the government crop re port tomorrow caused the wheat market to advance today. Closing prices were unsettled, c to Mlc abovts last night. Short sellers showed a tendency to take profits rather than to face ( twenty-four hours uncertainty. Heavy ruins in the northwest occasioned talk it a delavcd harvest, and there were asirrtljns that no more new wheat would a;irlvo in Mn nrapolls till the end of the wes.. Re ceipts here proved light and, the soittn west reported a good milling ou.ll. Owing to the outbreak of bal'tsa senti ment export business came to a standstill. Pit transactions centered chlelly In the September delivery which ranjeed from 82"ic to 93V4 with the close . ?lc net higher at 934?93sc. Scantiness of supplies to fill September corn contracts brought about' a flurry. Favorable weather held down new crop futures but In the end they, too, scored a gain. September swung from tiA'Ao to Mc, closing firm 2c above last night at 68V- Cash grades were - not offered freely. No. 3 yellow was quoted at 76 W. . , , Shippers reported the east bare of oats. Moreover, rains interfered with enlarg ment of the movement from the farm. ,Iecember fluctuated from 32'ie and 32.H 33c. The finish, , 32',c, represented Sw o net advance.

For the week receipts foot up 15,232 head, being a gain of almost 5,000 head over last week's very light run, but a falling off of over 10.000 head as compared with the same days a year ago. ' Considering the good demand that has prevailed at this point all the week it was only natural with such light receipts today to expect a good actlvo and steady market. Unfortunately advices from oastern points wore very discouraging, with the result thai the market opened slow and lower on beef steers. Buyers apparently wanted the cattle, but they felt that prices here were too high for that kind of cattle coming and were not at all anxious to load with any fur ther purchases unless they could be se cured at a little lower figures. While there whs nothing very good in the yards, the bulk ot the receipts consisting of trash, there were few cornfod yearlings good enough to bring $9.20. The market on cows and heifers was pretty slow and while prices were largely steady the feeling was weak and some sales looked, If anything, a little easier than yesterday. The fine rains reported over the greater part of the western country have had a stimulating effect upon the market for stock cattle and feeders. The result has been that cattle of that description have been active sellers all this week and were still In very good demand this morning. Prices paid Were fully steady with -yesterday. Stock heifers have been In very active demand and they are sharply higher for the week.

Right from the start the trade was largely In the hands of the packer, buyers and prices generally were 610c lower on nearly all kinds, though there was quite a number, of sales fully a dime lower than yesterday's general market. The packers were slow to' coassx2.zs business and some' of their first bids were more than lCc lower when compared with yes terday's trade. Toward the close busi ness was a little slower than the open ing.. as what was in first hands at that time consisted largely of rough, heavy packing grades and piggy sows. The general trade was slow and dull, never theless, a pretty fair clearance was mad by 10:30 o'clock. Although a cansiderab'.e number of good hogs were on sale, qual ity cut less figure than has been the case for some little time back. Several loads of good light hogs commanded the top price, $8.10, 12c loner than ir.e high est price yesterday.

Included in the shipments was a deck of goats. Quality of the supply showed no Improve ment over the last few days back, there being a very small proportion of good stuff among the offerings. Sheep were more numerous than lambs, the same as on yesterday. Consignments came largely from Montana, Wyoming and Idaho. As on yesterday tlie opening 'of tho market showed a little, more life than on the first two days of the week and a fair volunA of business was transacted during the first rounds. Of course, buyers went about picking up most desirable killers first and bought the commoner kinds a little later in the morning. It may be mentioned here that the packers and feeder buyers are beginning to competo with each other on the common : to medium stuff and this fact, has made trade a little more active of late. An other feature is the continued Rood de mand for anything at all choice and as comparatively little of that class of stuff is coming as yet sellers are enabled to get Detter prices ror the less desirable grades. Included In the first sales Welv some range Iambs at $7.40 and a bunch of ewes that brought $3.70, In the lamb division everything was sold by 11:30 o'clock, the general trade being fairly active all the morning. According to prices paid Iambs are steady to strontr with yesterday. Among the later sales were two cars of Idaho - lambs that brought $7.3o with 100 head out A complete clearance of fat sheep was not made until well along towards midday and although the early trade was rather brisk business on the last rounds was slow and dull. Prices on fat sheep were no Detter tnan steady. A four-car con signment of Idaho wethers sold at $4.50. Quotations on fheep and lamog.

LONG DEBATE ON CANAL BILL Dispated Clanse Applies Only to American Coastwise Sulpt The Vote stood Korty-Foar to Eleven. WASHINGTON. Aug. 8--By a vote of 44 to 11 the senate late tonight refused to strike from the Panama canal bill' the provision exempting ! American coastwise ships from payment ' of toll.- for passage through , the. Panama canal Debate on the question had continued from 1 p. m. until nearly midnight The senate then adjourned until tomorrow without voting on the bill itself. . The defeat of the Burton amendment to strike out the discrimination In favor of American ships was the senate's de fiant answer to the protest of the Brit ish government against the .legislation.' It was this clause of :the bill Which led Great Britain to send a formal protest to the State department. .-. The senators who voted infavor of the Burton amendment -. are: Brandegee, Burton,. Crane, Fall, Gronna,- Lodge,1 Nelson, Oliver, Penrose, Root and Wet more. Cammins Foresees War. Just before the vote was taken Sen ator Cummins made an impassioned speech, in which he charged senators 1 who interpreted the Hay-Pauncefote : treaty as denying to the United States the power to discriminate in favor of its own ships with giving an interpreta tion which they knew the American people would not observe. , He declared, the question of power was one that could not be arbitrated and that -should diplomacy fail in its settlement, war would be the final arbiter. . Senators Williams and Burton declared Senator Cummins was disregarding tho arbitration treaty between tho United, States and Great Britan. Because of the delicacy of the situ ation Senator Stone asked that the order directing a roll call on the Burton amendment should be vacated and a ris ing vote taken instead. Objection to this procedure from Senator O'Oorman resulted in the roll call being taken. During this evening the clause In ques tion, which provided that no tolls should be levied upon, vessels engaged ' in tho coastwise trade of the United States was amended upon motion of Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia,, by making the ex-' emption apply only to vessels engaged exclusively in the coastwise trade of the United States. Another amendment by the senator re quiring ownei's of ships to acknowledge the United States free from liabilities for damages resulting from their pas sage through the canal was defeated. So was an amendment by Senator Percy, which provided that vessels owned by Americans, but built abroad, should be entitled to registration for the coastwise trade. Limited terms for civil service employes, abolition of the commerce court and re tention of its five judges as extra circuit Judges will be submitted to President Taft as provisions for the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill. All these proposals, already approved by the house, weie adopted by the senate today by a vote of 30 to 19 against the opposition of Senators Cummins, Craw ford, Burton, I-odge and several others. Some of President Taft's friends say he will veto the bill, although In doing so he will ho'd up his own salary, that of every member of congress and every United States judge. Such action on tho president's part would also further deiav the annual appropriation, overdue sinco July 1. The president Is said to opposo the abandonment of life tenure for civil (service employes and also the abolition of the commerce court. The bill carries an appropriation of $34,000,000. PACKERS RECEIVE HOGS OF BETTER QUALITY CINCINNATI, Aug. $.-(SpecIaI Tele-gram.)-Prlce Current says the returns for the week Indicate some further de crease in market supplies of hogs, with a moderate shortage in comparison with the corresponding period last year. The good quality of the stock being marketed and maintenance of average weights are suggestive of a little hurrying of ship ments, which is encouraged by market prices currently and prospectively. Total western slaughtering was 350,000 hogs, compared with 405,000 the preceding week. For a corresponding time last year the number was 300,000. From March 1 the. total Is 11,250,000, against 12,570,000 a year ago, a decrease of 1,320,000 hogs. The market has had an advancing tendency, with irregular Increases In different mar kets, the general average at the close for prominent markets being at about $8.05 per 100 pounds, compared with $7.90 a week ago.
