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. Cash cats

J9i?1l,7ivFor Wednesday receipts of
cattle this morning were veiy rmail, only
112 cars being reported In. 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.

PIGS.
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..

HAVANA, Aug. 28. Hugh S. Gibson
the charge d'affaires of the American
legation at Havana, while entering a
hotel here tonight was assaulted by a
Cuban newspaper reporter. Mr. Gibson
was not seriously Injured. His assailant
was arrested and the Cuban secretary of
state personally expressed his regret to
the charge d'affaires at the occurrence.
Mr. Gibson was Just entering the hotel
at which he habitually dines, when the
man sprang upon him from behind aad
knocked him down. While the charge
d'affaires was lying on the ground his
acsatiant jumped upon him. At this mo
ment Edward Bell, the Becond secretary
of legation, reached the scene and dragged
off the assailant, saving Mr. Gibson from
serious Injury.
Aaaailant Captnred.
The police upon arriving at the hotel
took the man away" from Mr. Bell. Mr.
Gibson promptly Informed the policemen
that they must hold his assailant and
telephoned to Chancellor Patterson of
the Cuban state department, emphasizing
his demand. Chancellor Patterson a
short time afterward arrived at the hotel
where the American charge d'affaires
was dining and expressed his regret A
few minutes later the Cuban secretary of
state, Senor Sangullly, who had been
roused from his bed. arrived at the hotel
and expressed the official regret of tho
Cuban government over the occurrence.
The prisoner was consigned to Jail to
await the official complaint from the le
gation tomorrow. He had been forbidden
entrance to the legation because' he had
falsely attributed to Mr. Gibson certain
statements purporting to pertain to the
relations of the American legation with
the Cuban government
Apparently the assault was the out-'
come of the charge d'affaires' attitude
In calling the attention of the Cuban
government to the various demands' of
the Washington government and his In
sistence this afternoon, despite the oppo
sition of the Cuban" cabinet minister, on

Mail of Importance
Not Held Up .by Law
to Stop Sunday Work
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.-Plans were
perfected by 'Postmaster General Hitch
cock today whereby the administration of
the new law prohibiting the delivery of
liiiall on Sunday , will have no serious ef
fect upon the handling of important mail
matter. '
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.
