OMAHA, March T. 1913. th!hrio,.,JutH?.a Jln ,he whJt market at the close yesterday was a weak one In Th.wc.e.i?f fractlona 'or the day. II.? tweakn"s may be attributed to the whv ,n o Mattered short. Interests! , w-h.Letit..tofi mar.ket In Position where there is little buying power to speak of fiT prsont' TTie Principal longs in the May future continued to pour out as much wheat aa the trade cared to absorb, and In addition to this selling at Chicago the May option was sold freely at Mln neapo Is by there same people. The fact was clearly demonstrated yesterday that an export demand of any Importance would prove a great help to tho bull side of the market. BuHh In wheat were quite busily engaged In circulating rumors of doubtful character, which told of a big taking of cash wheat for export at Omaha, and ono or two other points. Though thero was no business tran sacted hero on foreign account yesterday and bids were somewhat out of line, with no trade possible under present condi tions. James Carruthers. the Canadian exporter, reported a better demand for Manitoba wheat yesterday with some bids Sc higher. Mr. Carruthers, who has been on the bear side of the market for a long time, expressed the belief that wheat Is worth the present price. The present cold snap haa found the wheat plant well covered with snow In most sections and this la forcing a great deal of old grain off the farms, as primary receipts were 594,000 bushels compared with 332,000 a year ago. Advices received from many points In the spring wheat country say aa long aa It Is possible for fanners to haul wheat to the railroad stations they will DUt In all their time disposing of their surplus grain and for two reasons the first one being tha out look In the southwest, which Is likely to lower wheat values all around, and the second one that the assessor Is securing the amount of wheat now held by each farmer, as on every bushel of this there will be a tax collected. Cash wheat was unchanged to &c higher. Shorts In corn arc showing uneasiness because of large charters made In Chi cago for the outward movement of a goodly portion of stocks at the -opening of navigation. The buying by these In terests caused prices to rally, aa the offerings were only moderate. A large Chicago elevator concern continued to add to Its lino and It was believed In some quarters that the cotton crowd bought corn on the weak, spots. The cash market at Kansas City and St. Louts was also stronger. Cash corn was unchanged to c higher. Usually at this time No. 3 white oats aro selling In the sample markets and In Chicago at the price of the May option to a premium. This year they are at a discount of lc. In tho last ten years there have been only two times when the cash oats were at a discount under the May option this year and In 190O. In the latter year May was con gested, Cash oats were unchanged. Clearances: Wheat and flour, 395,000 bu.; corn. 411.000 bu.; oats, 131.000 bu. Liverpool close: Wheat, tf4d higher; corn, '4d higher. Primary wheat receipts were 838,000 bu. and shipments 508,000 bu against re ceipts of 365,000' bu. and shipments ot 196,000 bu. last year.

Receipts In such volume as to look more suitable for Sep tember than for March halted an advance toduy In wheat. Prices, though steady at the close, were c lower to a sixteenth up. The outcome for corn was the same as last night to a shade higher and for oats Unchanged to a rise of He. Pork wound up 2V4c to 16c dearer, but no material difference was maintained In lard or ribs. Rig reserves of wheat on the farms "-P-rai'cil to be evident and one authority estimated the total as high as 163,000,000 bushels. Stocks In millers' hands were also declared to be larger than a year ago. News of this character, however, did not Influence the market until aftet there had been considerable hardening of prices becauso of freight room en gaged for twenty-ono boat loads by way of the gulf. Assistance for the bulls de veloped too from reports of an active milling demand at IJverpool. Fine prospects for winter wheat seemed kss of a factor than has recently been the case. There was a disposition In come iiuarters to regard the situation in that respect as having been discounted in full. Arrivals of wheat at primary points were 836.C00 bushels against 365,000 busheli, a year ago; seaboard clearances of wheat and flour equaled 3H5.000 bushels. Smallei receipts of corn tended to make that cereal advance. The market reacted, though when wheat turned downward, Paucity of offerings gave oats an appear ance of strength. New high prices for hogs lifted provi, slons and gave pork a fresh top record for the session, $21.05 a barrel, May de livery.

NEW YORK, March 7 -Engagement uf about $6,000,000 gold for export expressed In concrete terms today the bearing ot strained monetary conditions abroad upon this market. The first engagement ot gold for Germany since the soring of lsvs was announced. The bulk of the gj'l, however, goes to France and Argentina, Berlin was again bidding ',4 per c. nt In this mnrket todny for sixty and ntnjty day loans In advance of the April settli ment. Indications were that the exporu. lion of gold, vli7ch has amounted to nearly fSS.COO.OOO this year, would be car ried further, this country having the least protected supply of the metal. The outlook for easy money rates was not fsvorable, although tho call monev r.uc here Is still tho lowest of any of th' world's great financial centers. La. t week's bank stntement showed that ihc excess reserve had been 1 educed to a slender margin, and forecasts or tomor row's report, based on known movements of currency. Indicated a further loss of $3,000,000 or $4,030,000. The disturbing Influence of monetary conditions abroad was felt In this mar ket. as well as on the European vx changes. The list of stocks which de clined from I to 2 points embraced most of the Important Issues. Selling Was not heavy, but traders were Inclined to tiliu the short sloe of the market and no -f-fectlve support was given.

This makes tho re ceipts for the flvo days this week 17,85$ head and a falling off of almost 2,000 hoad os compored with last week, and the smallest ot any time since four weeks ago. Still, receipts nre larger than for the corresponding period a year ago by 1,800 head. Offerings of beef steers were lighter this morning and buyers nicked up such stuff aa looked good to them at prices not far from steady. Still, the market wiib slow and dull ns usual nt this late In tho week, and anything that did not find favor In the buyers' eyes was naturally a little lower. Among the offer ings were cattle good enough to bring $8.60 and a few yearlings at $8.75. What has been said about beef steers would nnnlv couallv well to cows and heifers, as they sold anywhere from steady on such stuff an buyors wanted to a llttlo lower on other kinds. Among the sales wero very good spaycu lienors at $7.90. . , . There were no stock cattle and feeders of any consequence In sight this morn ing, but tho feeling was steady on de sirable kinds, the same as haa been the case all the week, but castor on the light kinds, , , , , Quotations on cattle: Good to choice beef steers, $8.2508-80; full' Kod bceJ steers, $S.0OUj.20; common to fair boat steers, $7,4048.00; good to choice helfors, $7.0jU7.t0; good to cholco cows. $J.757.26; fair to good grades, $5.75Ti.75; common to fair grades. $4.6086.75: uood to choice Blockers and feeders, $7.6088.16; fair to good stockers and feeders, $6.801f7.DO; common to fair Blockers and foeder. lit iumm: stock cows and heifers. $5,000 7,00; veal calves. $6.25i39.25: bulls, stags. etc., $5.60g.iiu. iii.i'.i) mrit.110. ii im . 1 to 0 t4 el a (o JO 1(0 10 I 40 M .14 .

There wero thir teen loads of Idaho lambs offered that went to a feeder buyer at $7.70. In all there wero only about ten loads of ewr on nlo, Trado was a llttlo mora iictlvn than In the enso of lambs and ns noted abovo Thursday's prices 'Were well sustained, A halt dozen loads of ewes wern good enough to bring $6.20. Today'n receipts wero the largest for a Friday nlnce tho first week In October ot lout year and wern equal to th com bined recclptri at other Missouri river markets. All told some fifty-seven cars, or 14,000 head, were reported In, this being considerably larger than a week ago, two weeks ago and a year ago.

This tended tp make trade rather slow during the opening rounds apd it was well along towards 10 o'clock before anything of consequence had been done. About this time, however, bids be came decidedly stronger, and In tho end practically everything changed hands at prices that were nearly 10 cents higher than Thursday, ti was largely an $8.46 market, with tho bulk at $S.4iy8.60, and tha top price at $3.65, u flat dime higher than yesterday. Trade waa more or less draggy all the way through and it was along towards midday before the last hogs were sold.
