GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Sentiment in Wheat is Decidedly
Bullish.
CORN RETAINS ITS STRENGTH
Those Who Sell Yellow Ccrenl with
Vlerr of Profit Are Obliged to
Unit for n Convenient
Cover.
OMAHA, Dec. 4, "IS-
It Is popular In wheat circles on the",
board of trade to secure profits wherever
they are available. Those who hold
wheat and who await a hardening In
Prices tn order to Indulge In some, real
izing, pt event advances from day to
day, as wed as to hold the market
within, narrow limits. Sentiment Is more
bul.lsh on wheat at the present than It
has been for a fortnight and the buying
on the whole was of much better char
acter than the selling. Nearly all the
private wire houses advised their friend
to steer clear of the selling side, ex
cept on the bulges. While these are not
all the houses that are talking bullish,
they are among the leaders, and when
they are to be seen on the bull side, the
bears have' a slim chance to win out.
According to the Northwestern Miller,
the Minneapolis flour output decreased
2,W0 barrels last Week. The- output for
the week ending November 23 was 317,009
barrels, against 441,600 barrels in 1912;
301,000 in 1811, and 276,000 in 1910. North
western mills are doing a steady busi
ness. Some mills aro disposing of a
volume of flour somewhat under the
quantity made, while others are selling
somewhat more.
Cash wheat was higher.
Corn was expected to sell to a lower
level yesterday, but those who put out
short lines early were obliged to run
to cover later. The, December future was
the strongest and showed an advance of
nearly cents. It was reported that the
country is cancelling December ship
ment of corn not only In Omaha and
Chicago, but in the southwest, because
of the damp condition of that grain.
Cash corn was H&lc higher.
The fact was demonstrated yesterday
the weak spots in the provisions market
are to be given support by larger packers.
There were weak spots yesterday and
the stock yards contingent camo in as
buyers on nit decllnos.

CHICAGO. Dec 4.-Asscrtlons that the
Argentine crop Is a failure In the south
and of poor quality In the north put the
wheat market today at the mercy of tho
Kill. a nin.tn fU.i r- . ..naril, .1 1
Iuuiio. iuoiiia iiiiiira rt v u o.v.j . -He
to He net advance. Corn finished "rio
J to dCf4C up and oats with a gain of 9itf
Tc to ic. in provisions mo outcome
varied from the same us last night to
17Ho decline. Latest Argentina reports
concerning wheat estimated the damage
to amount to 30,000,OCO bu. reduction from
last year's crop total. Part of tho Injury
was attributed to frost In the south,
where the acreage Is large and the plant
Is now in the stage of bloom. Advices
were also current that Russian offering)
had become scanty, and that the Russian
crop had been officially overestimated.
Prospect of a further falling off in re
ceipts northwest of here as soon as bad
weather sets in added to sentiment
uRuInU the bears.
Increased feeding of wheat to live stock
west of the Missouri river nnd the fact
ttiut In some sections the fields are too
wet to afford pasturage tended to pre
vent any Important reaction tn prices.
Active demand at the seaboard helped
ulso to maintain tho stiength of tho mar
ket. Corn ruled firm becnuse of receipts be
ing light, stocks smull and a hnrd storm
predicted lor tho west. Shorts wero
made still more uneasy by news that
wagon roads In Illinois wore so muddy
as. to Interfere noticeably with delivery
to country elevators.
Oats made a deeded spurt on account
of tho mcagcmesB of primary arrivals.
There were also bullish reports from
Winnipeg, Texas nnd Argentina.
Provisions sugged, hog receipts, here
being 12,000 more than expected, with the
market burdened further by 10.000 carried
over from yesterday. One of the 'ehlaf
holders of packing house products was
said to be unloading.

Firm,
NEW YORK. Dec. 4.-After a. day of
contradictory movements the stock mar
ket closed with the favorite- shares show
ing Irregular changes of insignificant
proportions. In the forenoon prices eased
off slightly. Later there was a general
advance. In the flnsd trading the mar
ket once more reversed itself in a ijuick
reaction, which forced some of tho lead
ers bolow tho preceding day's close.
The drop In prices late In the day was
Influenced by renowed tension In tho
market. Call money advanced to 8 per
cent, which Induced hurried selling of
tho speculative holdings, Continued
stiffness of the rates was ascribed to
the exceptionally heavy demands upon
tho banks at this period. Last week's
bank statement showed a deficit nnd tho
money market this week has had to
contend with a further heavy loss on sub.
treasury operations. It Is expected that
firm rates will obtain while the banks
are seeking to overcome the present se
vere depletion in reserves. ,
Further cuts in steel products and the
closing of a comparatively small steel
mill were reported. Copper shares were
affected unfavorably by unsettled mar
ket conditions ODroao. uciouer riiriunso
of southern railroads, which contrast fa
vorably with thoso of systems In other
sections, caused a further advance In
some of the stocks of tho southern car
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par
vnlue. 31.S50.000. United States 2s, coupon,

CATTLE The cattle market hero and
nt every other selling point Is suffering
from a lack of a good active buying de
mand. According to packers' reports the
continued warm nnd unseasonable
weather has greatly reduced tho demand
for beef at nil consuming points and In
consequence requirements of packers aro
very inticli smaller than usual at the
present time. Tho soft and muddy con
dition of tho feed yardn and stalk fields
lias made the country very reluctant to
buy feeders with usual fraodom. The
Inck of demand for both stockrr rattle.
and feeders has been made still worse
by the unsatisfactory condition of tho
fat cattlo market. Thus It would appcur
that tho demand for both klltera and
feodors In all Sections bt the country and
at ull market points Is very much below
what might reasonably bo expected for
the early part of December.
With buying domand atnall It naturally
follows that tho tendency of prices
should ha lower. That exnlalns whv th
trade In fat cattlo here ami at othor
market points was slow and weak this
morning with tho tendency downward.
It would not scorn as If buyers cared
very much whethey they secured any
cattle or not. and It did not nnncar to
make very much difference whether tho
cattlo were of good quality or not, the
good onos fnlllng to nrose Interest the
same as the lose dea Ira bin kinds. From
start tn finish the beef market was slow
and dull, with prices gonorally steady to
a llttlo lower than yesterday.
Cows and hollers ware vary slow and
dull, but still prices as a goneral thing
mil not snow very mucn cnange. in fact.
most salesmen were simply quoting it

At noted nbovo the demand for stock
cattlo nnd foeders has been very slow
for some days nnd this morning fur
nished no exception to the rule.
Most speculators had quite a good
many cattlo on hand and were not espe
cially anxious to load up with any
more. Thus thn trade dragged along with
prices a little enslcr than yesterday, al
though here and thero somcthlnir verv

It was agreed among tho 250 persons
who attended the third annual socialist
banquet nt tho Labor temple last night
that a varied program wns offered, In
addition to a muslcnl program there wero
speakers on occupation tax, single tax,
woman's suffrago nnd socialism.. The
address on unionism promised was not
delivered, owing to the fact that tho
speaker did not put In an appearance.
nter Commissioner R. 11. Howell was
entrusted with tho tnsk of enlightening
thoso assembled on tho niceties of tho
occupation tax, moro particularly as to
the manner In which It Is proposed to
give It application In Omaha. This tho
water commissioner cntored Into with
much zeal. He told tho banqueters noth
ing more than he has told tho people
of Omaha whenever opportunity has been
arrorded him to talk. All of his stock
arguments In favor of the plan to levy
an occupation tax upon public utilities
Mr. Howell reiterated with as much
earnestness as If he had been launching
forth upon a maiden speech.
Public corporations he placed ahead ot
criminals, gamblers and other social out
casts ns factors In tho debauchery of so-
eiotys they must therefore be abolished,
not by revolutionary methods, but by ft
process of evolution; the plon for levy
ing tho occupation tax where an ex
cessive rate was charged by a publlo
scrvlco corporation wns expounded; the
fact that the revenue, thus collected was
to be applied to a fund which would pur
chase publlo utilities one by one was ex
plained, Water Commissioner Howell, devoting?
to the digression several of the thirty
mlnittcj allotted him, declared, incl
dentally, that great good had been
wrought In the management of the water
tiepartment unda,r the present administra
tion. Mrs. I), a. Crnlghend'B talk on woman
suffrage wos short and did not purport
to deal with many of the arguments that
aro sometimes presented Joy a treatment
of the subject. 8h said, briefly, women
demanded simple Justice and recognition
as individuals. Women of Nebraska
might bo granted tho rights of suffrage,
next year, Mrs. Craighead said.
"All taxes must be on one of two
'hlngs-land or the product of labor."
aid L. J. Qulnby, speaking on tho single
tax. "A levy of lax on the former can't
decreaso the amount of it, while tax
on the latter will hamper the production
01 weaiui. xno nurden should thcrefort
be placed upon the land."
Kred J. Warren, formerly of North
Platto and once a candidate for congress
on the socialist ticket, was. the last
speaker. Ho undertook to present only
a few of the fundamental doctrines of so
ctnllsm. John C. Chase, stato secretary of the
socialist party In Nebraska, was toast
master at the annual banquet, the pro
ceeds of which will be turned over to the
state office.
