OMAHA, April 16, 1913.
Following the exceptionally fnvorablo
report which was Issued by John Inglls
a few days ngo, the Hartlett-Frazlcr crop
expert, who returned to Chicago yester
day from a ten days' trip In the south-
west, says the wheat crop In Nebraska.
ivansns, UKianoma, Missouri and south
ern Illinois is today nearer .perfect than
he hus seen it In twenty "years of his
personal observation. He says there is a
small area In Kansas, west of the 100th
meridian, where the start Is rather un
even because of the dry fall and winter,
but that even In that location there is
ample surface moisture for present needs,
and a good season hereafter will Klve an
average yield. Everywhere else tho plant
Is strong, well stooled and well rooted,
and there is no forced top growth. Ho
was unable to find any wheat at all that
Is likely to be abandoned because of a
forced start. He says It Is too early to
talk ubout the yield, buf that the crop
is securing a start that might easily
yield far above tho 'usual Interpretation
of crop figures.
Seeding In the spring wheat country is
now being pushed as rapidly as possible,
and the area In the threo spring wheat
states will bo eaual to that of last year,
while the acreage in Montana will l.xely
bo increased.
Now that navigation is virtually open
tho big steamers at Duluth will soon find
their way either to Buffalo or Chicago
with largo amounts of wheat. Tho des
tination of this grain will pivot on the
price to be obtained. It was said yes
terday that thoso who were long on the
May future, seeing no outlet for the cash
article, will not stand their lines and
take a chance of having any amount of
wheat left In their handH. Cash wheat
was HftUc lower.
The "cotton crowd-' In corn, who are
recognized as big holders in the Chicago
market, fed Out the supplies to shorts
yesterday, giving them all they cared to
take and following the market downward
and selling right up to the close. There
ti-n. onnairiomhln utreneth shown eurly
In tho session on tho opening of navi
gation and the fact that there has been
an enormous amount of vessel room char
tered to carry corn lo tho east and
which is expected to reduce Chicago
stocks to small proportions. Cash com
WSho'rts hToat s were buyera, whllo com
mission houses led the sel lng yesterday
both desiring to even up their positions.

CATTLE Cattlo receipts were I uef
again this morning and buyers evidently
had their minds made UP to take otr
another 1CKU160 sa fur as bee?, steers, at
leaBt. wore concerned. Their firsts bins
were made on that basis and the mar-
L- - mna tram) aliUf tin ,i intn in onening.
lOnrly bales generally looked around a
dime lower than yesterday, but later on
It became apparent that the demand was
really better than anyone hod antici
pated, so that prices firmed up ana in
tho end the market on' desirable Ulllers
was very Utile different from yesteniay.
Cows and heifers also opened (low wltn
buyers bidding lower, but the supply 'was
so meager that .n the end the .market
proved to be not far irom sicnuy
jestcrday. , , ,,
Stockors and feeders wero also In lim
it d supply and tho demand fair. As a

SHEEP Another generous supply of
lambs gave tho packers an opportunity to
bo extremely bearish In thnlr views and
as a result tho early bids were anywhere
irom lMfaio lower. Advices rrom outsmo
points wero not encouraging to salesmen
as they Indicated a slow and dull trade
at those points. It wns some little tlmn
In tho morning beforn any offerings of
Importance began to move nnd when
trade did get well under wny prices gen
erally showed at leaBt a 1015c decllno
irom Tuesday s trade. As was tho enso
yesterday lambs on the Mexican order
were well represented both as to num
bors and quality, there being. In fact,
about us many fed MexlcnnB as fed
westerns. A double deck of 81-pound
Mexicans wero good enough to mako a
top of $8.65 ns agulnst $8.80 on the pre
ceding day. There was a larger number
of clipped lambs on the mnrket than on
yesterday, among which were some good
enough to bring $7.40. A bunch of 6ft
pound clipped lambs crossed tho scales
at $7.25. The movement continued slow
throughout and tho buyers were Inclined
to show more or less discrimination
ngalnst anything that was unsuitable. It
was rather lata beforeo everything was
token out of first hnnds.
A light supply of ngfd sheep did not
keep buyers from bearing on values, con
sequently the bulk of the trade Indlcnted
the samo decline as In tho case of lambs.
Ewes comprised tho mnjorlty of tho mut
ton offcrlnrcH, and tho best of them
brought $6.35, A hunch of clipped owes
changed hands at $5.2fi. No wethers or
yearlings of consequence wero among tho
receipts.
