10 HIE BEE: OMAHA,- THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1912. GRAIN AND PRODDCE MARKET Further Bullish News Only Will Cause Further Covering in Wheat RECEIPTS OF COM ARE SLOW Sellers of Oats for All Month are Somen hat Discouraged Becaaae the Market Keeps Edging; a Little Higher. OMAHA, Aug. 28, 1312. The beam say that the short Interest In the trade is considerably reduced ami that It will take positively bu.lish news to force any further covering. On the other hand the heavy sales of cash wheat, which amounted to 7jO,W bu. yesterday (this includes the business done after t:is close and 6G0.O-0 bu. sold for export at the ecaboarU), will no doubt give buyers some back bo. .e.' Tiie movement of spring wneat so lar is very oisayjoi"uis. sev eral points In the northeast show heavy rain In the last twenty-four hours. The cables are firm and higher. Elevator men In England are discrediting the claims of a very large surplus of wheat In Ru ala. There is a decided absence of hedging sales In Chicago, with very little grain in the public elevators. Traders ray It is best to go slow In buying on a swell, but they favor the bull side on re action. Cash wheat Hlc higher. There la no Indication of any relief from the acute situation in cash, August and September corn. While the large shipping demand continues the current receipts are not more htan Is needed. In many cases corn cannot be obtained to fill buy ing orders. Reports of showers and cooler weather are coming from many parts of the corn belt. This is not exactly the best thing for the crop. Shorts in De cember corn persist In covering on any show of firmness, because of the great discount under the early months. Many of the Chicago bears who have been fight ing the advance tn the December option gave up yesterday and helped the price to go over 56c. Any change Xn adverse weather and crop conditions might cause activity on the buying side of the market. Cash corn unchanged to c higher. Seller of oats for all months are some- what discouraged- because the market keeps edging a little hlghor, helped by corn and the heavy shipping, and txiKirt aales. Feeders say it Is not wise li op pose the slow advance In price at this time, but they look for the bearish fea ture (the never-ending run from the enor mous erop) to prove bearish when the urgent demands are supplied.

Besides being sma 1 in number the quauty of the cattle '' ws on an-average none too good, that Is, the most of the cattle were not fat enough for good killers. There were hardly enough beef steers In sight to really make a- market. The feeling was fully steady, and had there been any right good fat cattle on sale, they might have brought even a little stronger prices. The offerings of cows and heifers were also very small and anything at all at tractive In the way of killing cows was strong, while heifers were In active de mand at prices that were a little higher than yesterday. , , - . " .-, A largopioportioh of the receipts con sisted of stock cattle and' feeders. As speculators already had a good many cattle on hand carried over from yester day, they were not at all anxious for fresh supplies, unless they could get them at prices that would cheapen up the pur chases made earlier in the week. The attendance of country buyers was not very heavy and as a result the feeder market was slow and weak. A few of the best fleshy feeders of very good quality may have sold at prices that were about steady, but the general run was quite a little lower than on yesterday, or about 2536o lower than last week In fact, some kinds of cattle might be as much as 40c lower and in spots more than that While the trade was slow, as noted, - pretty much everything was Cleaned up In reasonable season.

SHEEP Despite the large runs of sheep and lambs here on the first two days - of - the week, everything was cleaned up in pretty good snape yesterday afternoon. While the bulk of the offerings sold at about Bteady prices, . the closing sales early in the af ternoon showed a little strength. Con sidering the heavy receipts so far this week, prices have held up very well, This might be due partly to the fact that the supply at the other markets has not been overly large. Highest price paid for fat lambs yesterday was J6.4v and It took some pretty good feeding lambs to bring JK.Zj. Best ewes on sale brought $3.75 and some wethers were good enougn to sen at 54.10. Receipts this morning, according to early estimates, amounted to about forty loads or around 12,700 head, being only moderate in comparison with the arrivals here a week ago. Last Wednesday the supply footed up about 19,600 head. Ship ments were ' received chiefly , from Idaho, Utah, Nevada. Wyoming and western Nebraska.' Wyoming stock Is beginning to snow up in larger numbers. There was an apparently better . demand for both lambs and sheep as buyers seemed more anxious to fill their orders. - Trade began early and was fairly active. First business included a sale of three cars of heavy Wyoming ewes at $3.75 and some Wyoming yearlings at $4.75. A three car string . of feeding yearlings from . Idaho brought , $6.26. Trade continued active and It was not long before most of the holdings were picked up by buyers. There was a good firm tone, to the trade throuehout and prices generally on both sheep and lambs were as raucn as lwocioc Higher than yes terday's prices..

' Holders of lock boxes at first and sec-' ond class postoffices will have access to them- as usual, although no mail deliveries will be made by carriers on the Street or at postoffice windows. Mail for hotel guests and newspapers will be delivered to them through their lock raxes by a simple arrangement of having that mall sorted on the railway mall cars before it reaches- Its destination.. Such mall will be regarded as "transit mail" and will be distributed Immediately upon its arrival at the offices of destination, thus prac tically Insuring a speedier delivery to the addresses than heretofore has been the case. The prompt delivery of special de livery moll will not.be affected. Thl distribution will require a minimum of Sunday work and the distribution of other mall received on Sunday will be made after midnight on Sunday, so that it may be delivered by the carriers on their first tour Monday. After all-day conferences with the ex perts of his department, Postmaster Gen eral Hitchcock tonight issued a' statement explanatory of his administration of the new law. His assurance is that there will be no embarrassment to the business . public and that through the arrangements he outlines urgent mall matter will reach its destination promptly. Orders neces sary to carry Mr. Hitchcock's plans into effect will be Issued immediately. - . J. O. Nelson Becomes Assistant Manager of " Western Union Lines St. Joseph Live Stock 'Market.' ST.
