OMAHA. Feb 17. 1JI.I.
A goodly rutnber of speculators In
'lient have taken 011 linen of May and
July futurw because of reports from tne
Huuuiwpsi unit dust lias ncctimuliited on
J"p. wheat fields of that countn ami
...d.a,naBe reimrts are among the 'l'-''-slbll
tics" later In the senion. Ono uf
the best known authorities In the wlnt..1
wheat belt In a reimrt says that thoe
who are banking on dry weather for a
. ,m"' n,"I wll expect to make a
killing out of their wheat, are taking a
fig chance. This came man says that :
heavy downpour of rain In tho dry sec
tion would drive out every long In tr-o
business, with tho possible exception of
big holders of May future at Chicago,
at Ipaat two well posted wheat growers In
Kansas volunteered the opinion In nit -stlBs
received Saturdtiy that the present
condition surromidlng tho wheat plant is
favorable. Ample moisture Is now til the
ground ror at least u inohth, and that
additional moisture Is likely to bo sctn
. iw r9 11 18 needed. Argentina Is con
trlbutlng enormous quantities of whaiit
Vlp Iwportlng countries, and id.N3
rfelved In Chlaigo Inst week from
iiuenos Aires say that the movement out
of that country will be up to the facili
ties of rellroads, as well as to the steam
ship companies, for the next few months.
Australia will have considerable wheat
Tor sale, and with ample tonnage RuksU
offerings will phow a marked increase
over those during the last few muitlis.
Nearly all the regular steamers, as well
as tho tramp steamers, have been pressed
t) service by tho warring taction ill
thii far cast, and with a release of these
vessels the outward movement of wheat
from Russia Is expected to be on a large
"cale. Cush wheat. Ub'iic lower
hllo the cotton crowd of bulls in corn,
who are believed to be long an enor
mous Una of May corn at Chicago, are
giving that market but little attention,
they may possibly be waiting for a time
In which to demonstrate to the bears that
they are on the wrong side of the market,
and give them a severe drubbing. There
were !.653,000 bushels of corn received at
primary Jolnts last week, and Blnco
November 1 the receipts at those mar
kets has nmounted to DO.OuO.OUO bushels.
Cash corn Was unchanged to 4o low'er.
Tho oatH market continues dull, moving
only in sympathy .with wheat and corn.
Cash oats was HHc lower.
Clearances on corn were 321.000 bushels,
oats 31,000 bushels and wheat and flour
equal to 268,000 bushels.
The close at Liverpool wan HGHd
higher on wheat and miid higher on

NEW YORK. Feb. 17 -Another wae
of selling bore down prices of stocks to
day. The market was nervous and at
times acute weakness developed. Pes
slmlstle feeling has become so wide
spread, owing to a variety of well rec
ognized Influences that the present tend
ency Is to exaggerate the Importance 1 f
I nny now development which Is construed
( unfavorably.
I The receipts today of reitorts from
inbrond of J. P. .Morgan's Illness lllun
tniird the effect of new bearish In-
wan reason for strength because of ! fluences, coming on top of those which
world shipments being much lighter thin
expocieu weakness: In the stock' maa
ket brought about a temporary setback,
but complaints of Hendan fly In portions'
of Kansas and Nebraska, aided the bulli.
Argentine wheat bought to go to Odef.a
rescued the market from a second attack
which sellers were pressing hard It was
explained that good milling wheal vun
scarce In Russia, but there was a dis
position In noma quarters to believe the
unusual demand came about from mill'
tut haste rather than other causes.
Shorts were on tho run when tho session
came to an end.
Liberal exort sales of corn more than
offnet the Influence of heavy rccelptu.
This was not tho case, however, until
the market had been subject to several
zigzag fluctuations with wheat.
Oats proved relatively wenk, owing to
a substantial Increase of the visible sup
ply, compared with a big falling off a
year ago.
lroislons avernged higher. The semi

was bullish, especially ns to lard.

sltlon. Tho reiwrts gavo traders n scare
and those on tho long side hastened to
unload stocks at tho opening. Tho effect
of this selling was heightened by a
vigorous bear attack nnd prices broke
abruptly, with wide openings In tho
f-rvotlte stocks Steel sold all the way
from 6J to 60 In different parts of
the excited crow(lof traders around the
Steel post In the flret minute after
trading began.
Reassuring statements as to Mr. Mor
gan's condition chocked the eclllng and
the market rose, slowly, some kIockh ef
fecting a substantial recovery. In the
late afternoon there was a, renewed out
burst of selling nnd a number of storks
reached tho low point of tho day, al
though covering in tho last few tnlnut's
reduced final losses. The bottom level of
tho sostlou showed material declines for
practically all tho important stocks,
running up to ovor 6 polntB In Canndlnu
Pacific and 2 or mora among such Issues
as Reading. Union Paclflo and Steel.
Selling of Steel was heavy, ninny largo
blocks' being thrown on the market and
tho price went under 61. A number of
leading Issues reached tho lowest prlcos
for ovur a year.
Tho crisis In M6xlro nnd fears of a
strike of firemen wero disturbing factors
and contributed largely to tho market's
unsettlement. london nnd the continent
were reliorted early sellers of 10,(M
shares, chiefly Canadian Pacific, Union
Pacific and Heading. Later London
bought somo 5,0V0 shares of Union Pa
cific and the coppers.
Bonds were weak and active Somo is
sues lost a. point. Total sales, par value,

In splto uf the liberal receipts of cattle
this morning tho market on beet steers

close. Tho quality of tho cattle was not
very desirable nH a whole, although thera
wero cattle good enough to bring 13.1).
Cowh and heifers were fairly active,
considering tho largo receipts, and the

In very fulr season in the mornlntr, Tho

nnd In some cases strong.

HOGS The murket opened In good
shape this morning and the whole supply
chunged hands at figures that were from
strong to as much as n ntckel higher.
First bids were steady to strong, but
there nus nothing done on this baslH,
and when real trade was commenced
heavy and mixed hogs moved at prices
that were easily strong, while good light
and butcher weights found a ready out
let at rallies Hint wero around 6c higher
than at the close of last week. Trade
was a llttlo slow during the opening
rounds, but after a little preliminary
dickering, - things livened up and prac
tically everything was sold before 10
o'clock. Shippers and speculator bought
a large share ot the receipts again to
day. Tho demand was good for anything
In the line of light, butcher or mixed
stuff, and tho rough heavlus were the
only kinds that were at all slow to move.
The bulk of the sales landed at 17.954?
8(f. as against 17.937VS.00 Saturday and
both packers and shippers bought good
lights as high as 18.10, a nickel higher
than the top at the close of last week.
The quality ot the offerings was only fair
today, being about the same as on Satur
day. Receipts were moderate, about
ninety cars of 6,300 head being reported
in, This Is Kllghtly smaller than last
Monday and the corresponding Monday

moderate supply of lmh
antl sheep showed up nt tho yards for a
'Monday as only around 46 cars or 10,600
head wero reported In. While the re
ceipts wero about 4,18.. bend short of
last Monday und about 4,031 head short
of the corresponding dny one year ago
they exceed Monday of two weeks ago by
2,000 head. The greater part of tho sup
ply consisted of rtged sheep offerings,
most of which were ewes. The quality
of tho mojority of the offerings wn
very good compared with the closing
days ot last week.
Tho market was a trlflo late in opening,
and when the stuff did begin to movo
trade was rather slow most of the morn"
Ing. With bearish advices reported from
outsldo points buyers started out talking
lower prlac, but in the end the salesmen
managed to dispose of tho bulk of th
holdings nt prlcos generally steady with
tho close of last week. Thero was a very
weak undertone to the trade, however,
and some of. tho mcdlupi grades of both
lambs and sheep may possibly have been
wenk to a littlo lower than the closing)
trade of last week. Includod among tho
sales of lambs wo.ro several loads ot fed
westerns that brought 18.70 and two. or
three loads of lambs sold to a feeder
buyer at 18.00. The best fed western owes
reached 5.90, and some Mexican wethersH
changed hands at 16.36. A bunch at
shorn ycnrllng wethers went to the scales
nt 10.00.
