lug tne wheat markets ot the old world
us cabled to Omaha-yesterday were jnoro
bullisn than in some time past. Thoro
were further reiterations ot crop lnsoa
because of heavy rains In Hutsla, where
the wheat In some sections Is said to be
sprouting In the' shook, and where con;
aiderabio ot the grain lias been damaged
by exposure to the weathet before and
alnce it was threshed. In addition to, ad
vancing fractionally at Liverpool, that
market reported an Improved demand tor
American wheat, both ua parcels and
cargoes. Tho seaboard reported twenty
five loads as taken for shipment abroad,
and the fact that a leading exporter at
Baltimore reported bids there as fully
2 cents out ot line caused many at Chi
cago to believe that somo of tne Mary
land exporters were .anxious to get hold
of somo cheap wheat, possibly for the
filling of distress freight room and posil
bly lor orders from the United Kingdom.
Cash wheat was HO Ho lower.
The lorgs in September corn continued
to sell that future yesterday In order to
secure profits, and this pressure drovo
prices lower. It was popular yesterday
to buy the December and sell the May.

that sections ot Kansas were enjoying
showers. Previous to yesterday there

Topeka without a let up An unlikely
story was circulated hore late yesterday.

September were made and that the corn
with which to fill September contracts
was to come to Chicago from here.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22. A slow reces
sion, which cornea down a dosen or
more stocks trom 1 to 2 points today,
was succeeded by a.n equally b.ow rtx-ov-ery,
and at the end ot the session tne
leading snares wore close to jeate.oaya
final quotations. Mho day posited with
out Important news concerning affairs
upon which most emphasis Is piaood and
there waa consequently a general disin
clination to do much spocu.ation.
Selling on tho decline was concentrated
on Steel. Union Paclllo and Roadlng, and
the heaviness ot these shares allotted
the remainder. Thero wete no suns oc
weakness, howotrer, anc". shorts grew un
easy. It was due principally to short
covering that the niaikot recovered Its
losses. Reports of rain In eecttons of tho
corn and cotton belts hciped to brlnK
about the recovery. Affairs in Mexico
occupied less attention today, for tho
reason that there waa no news of Import
ance from across the border.
Reports of record-breaking foreign trade
for July and the last year passed almost
unheeded.
A small gain in cash for the banks on
tho week waa Indicated by known move
ments of curronoy, There waa an easier
tendency in the money market, with quo
table changes for the shorter maturities.
oCmmerclal paper also was easier, some
paper being placed at a shade under 6
per cent and a scarcity of choice names
was reported. Country banks continued
to buy In volume.
Prices ot bonds were shaded slightly.
Total sales par value, $1,160,000. United
States bonds were unchanged on call.

a HOGS-Recelpts continued moderato to
day, only about 84 cars, or 5.000 head,
being received. For the week supplies
total 29,268, about 7,600 head smaller than
a week ago and slightly lighter than the
run for the same day a year ago.
Advices rrom ouier points indicated a
sharp advance all along the line, and the
local market opened In good shape. First
bids were no more than to hlgner, but
these figures were soon raised, and when
the first sales were mode values showed
an average advance of tiflOc. In extreme
cases prices looked to be a flat dime
higher. Shippers mid speculators Wtrn
troe buyers during the early hours. Fig
ures paid were unevenly higher, the gen
eral advanco being quoted at fully 10c
Toward the close, however, prices be
gan to weaken. Most of the killing or
ders had been filled and the 16 jr 20
loads that were sun in urst nana woro
not needed very badly by anyone, a i
result buyers gradually stopped blddins
and as such offers aa they did make
were but , little better than yesterday
trade soon stopped altogether.

SHEEP It was a xood. actlva market
on practically all kinds of killing stuff,
with fat lambs steady to strong and mut
ton offerings fully steady. The supply
was a little better than normal for a
Friday, the receipts amounting to 9.0U0
head, against 4.3J0 head a Week ago and
6,277 head on the same day a. year ago,
Ot course, lambs formed by tar tho
greater pert of tne tfueivts, and tho out
of thorn wero fat and of good quality.
Aside trom several cars ot fat owes, there
wero no other mutton offerings to amount
to anything.
There being a good Inquiry, most every
thing soul oarly. Among tho wuos wero
halt a aoien toads ot idano lainua tiat
;oid up to I7.7J, top for the day nnd tho
highest point reached this week. Tho
bulk of all the killing Inmbs channbd
hands at a range ot 87.4v4tf.uo, with a low
selllne aiound t7.oo.
ii was a rather quiet deal in reeaern.
The supply ot feeding sheep and lambs
wits' about the same as on other days of
the week, but the general run ot tliet
offering! was not uuko as good. Few,
If any, buyers were In from tho country,
but commlss,on mon had Just as many
oi dors as on any pi virus day of tho
season. The dull feeling In the trade was
attributed to the country balking at tho
high prices. In the end the hulk ot the
pale on feeding account had nn cosier
tendenoy and a range of lb.Sr.60 In
cluded most transactions. Fsedor sheep
were scarce.
The week s trade In general has been
fairly satisfactory and the week close
in very fair shape, thero being a strong
undertone to prevailing prico. Tho bul
lish feeling has been due largely to a
moderate supply for thl time of the year.
Iambs are now selling around SOo higher

Restraining Order
Holds Up $500 Voted
to Ryder and Kugel
Edword A. Smith, member of tho ttato
legislature, yesterday secured a tempo
rary restraining order, signed by Judge
Troup of the district court, forbidding the
city treasurer to pay to City Commis
sioners Ryder and Kugel $500 which the
city council voted to give them to pay
their expenses to the convention of the
American League ot Municipalities In
Winnipeg, Canada.
Judge Troup set August 26 lis the data
on which a hearing will be held tf de
termine if the order shall be made per
manent. It Is understood that Commis
sioner Ryder already lias drawn the
larger part of ht share of the money
and tha restraining order does' not op
erate to compel him to return this.
Mr, Smith, who bring his action as a
taxpayer, alleges that the publlo funds
will be squandered If the money is used
for the commladonera trip. He asserts
that the council has no legal right to
make tbo appropriation.

The training class for library worU
er, held each year at ths Omaha Pub
lic library, will begin work 8eptem)r

file over twenty applications for adml
slon to this class, although the number
of students is generally limited to, four
Naturally ,most of the applicants ro
people who have had no experience else
where, but have come direct front
school. There aro always somo omonc
the number, who, wishing to make a
change In occupation, make application
f rom the business world, from among th
teachers, and not Infrequently from
among thoso who bavo done .social and
philanthropic work. All of this previous
experience Is of much value to the li
brary and enlarges tho acopa of tha
work.
The purpose of the library training;
class Is to prepare applicants fojr ' po
sitions In the local library, and s
the rourse of study Is somewhat limited
to Work as It Is dono here, but as almost
all public libraries aim to follow very
much tho same systems, work in any one
library may be counted as a preparation
for work elsewhere. For entrance- to
tht class tho applicant must have had
tho equivalent of a high school educa
tion and have done sufficient additional
work In the study ot history and litera
ture to be able to pass the required ex
amination. It is raroly desirable to ac
cept applicants who ore under SO ysarn
of age but thero s no rule governing?
this age limit. The applicants, mutt
also have such peronal qualifications
as seem to tho library committee to bo
unh as will make a good library worker,
a love of reading not being qonsidsredi
a sufficient recommendation.
Examination Sobleats, t
Tho entrance examination Include hl
ton, both general and current; .literature
and general Information, and. the closo
will be mode up of those who suoceas
fuUy pass this examination and whose
standing at the last school attended Ja

tion. High school work In htitory nnd
llteraturo not prevlouly covered by ho
uocessful applicant must bo taken Iur
!ng the year of library training. Xho
members of tha class will give Ov hours
each day at the library, the time twine
equally divided between class work and
practice work. No tuition will bo
charged, but members of the elaj will
each be paid $10 per month after Octo
ber 1. Most of the work of the alms
U'W he technical, but much time win be
given to a study ot the various c'usjfs
of books for the purpose ot learning tar
select tho beat authors on the many sub
jects represented, Many of tho boota
for children must be read by tho, mem
ber of tho class and those who pnfer
to speclaltzo In children's work will have
practice in story tailing. The work of
each department will be supervised hy
the head of the department, but the gen
eral work of tha class will bq subject to
the guidance of come one employe de
tailed to do this work.
Tho most Important part ot the In
struction Is that which brings the
student in direct contact with the public.
No matter how groat a knowledge ot
books may bo possessed by the student
and future employe, It la valueless io the
library If It Is not used to tho advan
tage ot the library patrons. Although m.
knowledge and lovo of books are ot grwat
value, a. sympathetic -understanding of
people I tho charaotorlstla most nencs
