Inrrs of the D.
OMAHA. Dec 14. 1911
1 here was a rumor on the floor yester
day that war had been declared between
Austria and Sen-la. This caused many
shorts to cover nnd It also developed a
demand from Investors. On a dental of
the war rumor by many concerns In the
trade there wsm heavy selling and the
early buyers were obliged to accept losses.
The exportable surplus In Argentina was
again the subject of considerable discus
sion, as a leading Implement house made
tho figures quite small, while the corre
spondent of tho Rosenbaiim Oraln com
pany at Reunos Aires placed the surplus
at lt0,M.K) bushels. The latter estimate
was looked upon by the trade with morn
or less favor. These flgunw compare
with an estimate of 112,000,00) bushels as
tho 'surplus of that country which wus
sent out to the wheat trade of tho wot Id
by Rroomhall on Thursday and which
was looked upon with disfavor by con
scrvatlve and well-posted grain men. In
addition to tho enlarged Argentina ex
portable wheat surplus u cable was re
ceived from Hotinos Aires which reported
the woather there as clearing. This same
cable said thut thero Is considerable un
certainty as to the final crop outcome,
ns well as the exportable surplus, nnd
that these conditions aro keeping the mar.
kets of tho old world In an unsettled
state. Cash wheat at Chicago was slow
at about unchanged prices, with sales of
only 45,000 bushels. Handlers of cssh
wheat reported an Improved Inquiry, but
said that would-be buyers wcro refusing
to meet any advanco In prices. The ex
port business via the gulf was of mod
erate proportions, and Jamos Carruthers
of -Montreal reported twenty boatloads of
Manitoba wheat for shipment to Spain
to be loaded out during January The
wheat market Is In a. position where gen
ulno war news or crop losses In tho Ar
gentine would cause prices to bo forced
to a much higher level. The "bull com
bination" has been waiting Und watching
or months, nnd at the same time they
have been suffering severe losses, for
something to turn up that will help them
out of tho rut In which many believe they
fo now hidden. Cash wheat Vic lower.
The strength In the wheat market was
a godsend to holders of corn yesterday,
with Increased offerings by tho country,
with tho shipping demand of small pro
portions, und with export bids out of
line, sharp losses wcro among the proba
bilities. Tho boars, however. Instead of
nttncklng the market, as has been tho
case of late, stood nloof, selling only on
tho hard spots Cash corn unchanged to
so lower.
Oats were quiet and fluctuations were
narrow. Tho December showed a little
more relative strength than tho more de
ferred futures. Cash oats unchanged to
5o lower.
Cleoarnces of wheat and flour wore
982.000 bu.; corn, 97,000 bu.; oats, G8.000 bit.
Liverpool wheat closed UGUd higher:
corn, unchanged to 4d lower.
Primary wheat roceipts were 1,243,000
bu. and shtpmonts 499,000 bu., ngalnst re

24i,000 bu. last year.

close nt the first named figures meant u
decline of '.4c from last night.
Although provisions started firm he

OATTL.K Thero were no fresh cattle
today, at least none of any consequence,
but for tho week receipts have been fairly
liberal, being about the same us last
week, but around 3,000 hesd short of the
record for tho corresponding week of last
year.
Conditions governing Ihe citttlo trodo
have been unfavorable In all sections of
thn country Hofl and unseasonable
weather In the east has decreased the de
mand for western beef to such an extent
thut prices at all market iwlnts, regard
less of tho fact that receipts have not
beon burdensome, have steudlly declined.
This accounts for thn fact that at tho
close of the week beef steers are around
!5c lower than last week.
Cows and heifers have been subject to
the same Influence an beef steers, but
have shown even more decline? they being
around 2531500 lower than at ihe close of
last week. The Hinnunt of the decline,
as a matter of course, depends upon tho
quality and kind of stock. Veal cnlvts,
on the other hand, have been good sellers
all tho week and havu shown compara
tively little, change.
The mild weather has been very favor
able to the stocknr and feeder trade, and
tho movement of cattle of that descrip
tion has vcen voiy satisfactory. Prices
have been strong all the week on tho tie
Kimble kinds Ht least.

the week, and hs a rule were ready sell
ers. Anything heavier than that moved
more or less slowly on most days and
trade was somewhat uncertain, resulting
In an uneven rango of prices. Closing
prices for tho week on tho best lumb of
ferings are quotably a quarter higher
than a week ago. As the packer buyers
discriminated ugalnst the less desirable
grados, prices on them show not so much
advance. What was true In the lamb
trade was also In u measure true in fat
sheep, the discrimination being more ap

unfavorable factors were recognized ns
causes In the collapse, but tho movement
wns Interpreted also as a rearijustmon'
from an unwarranted speculative basis
of prices, which had paralysed any
healthy nbsorptlve demands.
Reports of Investment buying on thn
decline, both by Individuals nnd r
riuanclnl institutions, showed tho benoflt
of tho corrective ptocoss. Somo of this
buying wns assumed to come from for
eign sources, In spite of tho continued
stringency of money conditions abroad.
Thn tightness of the domestlo money
market moderated as a consequence of
tho liquidation lit tho stock market.

necessity for stock mnrket liquidation

by the secretary of thn treasury as to
thn need of relief by deposit of treasury
funds gnvn negative replies. Tho request
ot the Interior demand for funds Is now
passed nnd money Is expected to return

New York bankers, In announcing their

had reoelvcd assurances that thero was
no reason for apprchondhur warlike de

In London, anxiety continued over Euro

The fall In Unlou Pacific shares was
cela revldonco of tha alarm fait by share
holders over tho effects of the dissolu
tion decree of tho supremo court. Stocks
of other companies, supposed to bo ub
Joct to similar action were affected,, but
much less violently. Speculative trepida
tion could bo discerned over tho pro

ot slackening of new business In Iron

iMle yostordny afternoon Goodrich
