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. Cash oats
unchanged. ;

CHICAGO, Aug. 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.
Heaviness ruled provisions, leading long
sellers on all hard spots. January pork

: CATTLE Cattle receipts were light to
day, as was to be expected on a Thurs
day, only seventy-five cars being reported
In. . 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.

HnGS-At the opening of the hog mar
ket shippers and speculators bought
fw hoars than usual, there -being a
compartlvely . .poor shipping - demand.
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.

SHEEP About fourteen double decks,
or around 3,500 head, comprised the run of
Sheep and lambs today, as against 8,100
head a week ago and 6,850 head for the
corresponding day a year ago. 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.

Answer to Great Britain.
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
