HIE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1913. 11 ) L GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET Big Increase in Visible Supply of Wheat is Expected. INTEREST IN CORN . 18 OPEN Many Million of nashels Arc Vp for Snip nnd Eastern Dnjtn Are Picking; Up Purchnaes on Omaha EichntiKr. OMAHA. Oct. 6. 1913. A set of bearish staUatlca on wheat will be seen after the close- today. A big Increase In the vlslbto supply probably will be the leading factor. Heavy In creases In tka stooks at Minneapolis and puluUt will help to swell the figures on the grain In the opeU In addition to this will be a continuation of a slow cash market, as Interior millers are taking very little of this grain, and according to the best authority In the cash wheat trade In Chicago, exporters aro bidding too far away from the asking to permit of any transactions. There also Is a lack of burlness in wheat futures and the trado being done In tho pit Is largely professional In Chi cago. There are continued sales of wheat In the pit against the United States and the Canadian crop, and this grain Is being taken care of by the larger cash Interests In Chicago. It has been quite popularMo buy the Winnipeg future by speculators and to sell whiat In Chicago In the way of a. spread. Now that plow ing la about ended in the Canadian north west It Is said tho movement of wheat there will increase somewhat. Cash wheat was HQJlo lower. There Is still a good-sized open Interest in the corn market here. This is always tho caso at this time of the year, as wH as later. Omaha being the best corn market In the world, tho fact that there .are many millions of bushols open goea "iP 8h,ow that tb business must come here In order to be handled properly, in this market there are large eastern shippers buying from day to day and there are largo receivers wljo havo corn for ale,.., These conditions make tho situa tion healthier. Cash corn was HQic lower. 'The big stock of oats In the visible sup ply, of the United- States, as well as ele vators here, coupled with the fact that Canadian oats are coming this way, have been a little too much for bull holders, ,and some of the latter havo liquidated. CSsh oata were Uo lower. Clearances were none of corn and oats and wheat and flour equal to L7G6,O0O bushels. Liverpool closed H-?id lower on wheat and ttwtad lower on corn, Primary, wheat receipts were 1,779,000 .bushels and shipments of 628.000 bushels, against, receipts last year of 2.625,000 bushels and shipments of 931.000 bushels. Primary corn receipts were 740,000 bush 'cU and shipments were 338,000 Uushels, against- receipts last year of 706,000 bush els and shipments of 428,000 bushels. umary oa? receipts wore" 1,235,000 bushels and shipments were 675,000 bush vi'ua?alnsi "felPta last year of 1.311,000 bflshels and shipments of 862,000 ubahels. i-VHUAJX IUSCEIPT8.

Pjaltsmouth, Neb., 20 tries referred to were thought likely to be less Important Additional sources of weakness In wheat prices were larger world shipments than expected and a huge Increase of the visible supply. Literal sales at Minneapolis gave .the wheat market a decided downward Im pulse at the outset, and so also did tho fact that the onlv buyers wore shorts who had profits. 'At no time during the day was there any Important rally, dt aplte the fact that quotations fell to a new low level for the year. , . Bellof that a prominent speculative bull waa unloading on a large scale made the corn market heavy. Wet weather, however, tended to uphold prices. There was a noticeable widening of the Decem ber and May spread, with Bhorts and In vestors good buyers on the break. Oats suffered from big liquidating sales by discouraged holders. A decrease In tho visible supply wae tho only comfort to tho bulla. J3oar pressure on lard counted against Ule provision market as 'a wholo. Grain weakness and a decline at the yards did the rest.

Oct 6,-Pronounced pres sure was applied to the stock market today, and for a time prices declined rapidly. Professional selling was on n large scale among the favorite stocks. London unloaded hero In considerable volume, nnd Boston and Pittsburgh sent In selling orders. Trading was active during the forenoon, and leading stocks, as. well as a large number of the Inactive Issues, were hammered down 1 to 2 Points. Pressure was less severe-in tha latter part of the day and losses were reduced. , Steel again boro the brunt of the at tack, which forced It down 2 points to 56 A cut of $2 a ton In steel plates and ateel sheets, nnd expectations of further reductions In steel products promoted the growth of bearish sentiment. Uncer tainty as to the effect of the new tariff schedules, not only In tho steel trado, but between Industries, was more of a factor, now that tho law Is In operation, and had n good deal to do with the re luctance of traders to oppose bear aclllng. Money market conditions were unfavor ame. The unexpectedly poor bank state ment of Saturday an dtho further loss of $2,000,000 to the subtreasury led to a general tightening of rates. Call money rose to 6 per cent for the first time alnco last April, and quotations for all time loans were advanced. Now Haven's annual report, showing a deficit of more than $4,600,000 and thrcata of a strlko of engineers and firemen on the road led to celling of tho stock. The railroad stocks In general, and St. Paul in particular, continued to reflect tho decreases In net earnings shown In Au gust reports. In the bond market there was a slight declining tendency. Total Bales, par value. $2,065,000. United Statoa 4s coupon declined H, to 109, a new low record. Bid prices for all Issues were un changed.
