"Same for me," said the other.
The waiter smiled, turned on his heel

OMAHA, Dec, IS, 1M3.
Wheat ruled unsettled, closing firm.
There was a sharp break early on sell
ing by longs because of the weak cables
and generally bearish advices. It looked
at that time aa It tho bears would have
an Inning without any great amount ot
trouble. On this fetlni? them were
heavy offerings and as the nmrkot de-1
cunea the supplies Increased. Argentina
sent In some bear news which was well
received. J. Dreyfus, one of the largest
grain men In the world, estimated the
exportable surolua of that country at
108,000,000 bu.

Instead of exporters reselling wheat

Winnipeg advices were of liberal sales
for foreign shipment A message from
the Paclflo northwest said that the
yields as given in the states ot Idaho.
Oregon and Washington of 82.000.000 bu.
was overestimated by nearly 80.000,000 bu.
It was rather popular to sell corn short
and this was Indulged In by some ot tne
best Judges ot conditions In the trade.
The buying was scattered and was
largely In the way ot profit taking. The
Idea has gained ground that corn will
be difficult to hold around the present
price, as the country will ship liberally
with good roads and that the likelihood
Is that lower prices will be seen. There
were 1.021,000 bu. received at western,
points yesterday and 1SS cars at Chicago.
Oats covered a narrow range. There
was good support at certain limits below
the market and orders for free selling
were held a trifle below the market for
May delivery. Western receipts were 677,
000 bu. and cash sales were 218,000 bu.
The run of hogs at the yards was 11,000
more than expected and the early prices
was to off. Local longs were the chief
sellers ot provisions and these were made
up ot grain traders, but the buylnr was
good at the moderate decline.
Cash wheat was unchanged to ?4c
higher. ,
Cash com was UC lower.
Cash oats were unchanged to o
hlKher.
Clearances: Wheat and flour equal to
793,000 bushels! corn, 6,000 bushels oats,

CHICAGO ORAIX AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Tradlnsr and Closlnsr
Prtces on Board of Trade,
CiriCAOO. Dec 13. Hundreds of r.
ot corn headed toward Chicago from all
directions gave the bears on advantago
i ixiay in grain, as a result corn fin
ished U9Hc to Ho net lower, and oats
off Uo to HWHc, In wheat, the out
come varied from V4o decllna to a. like
advance. Provisions closed, 2Vic to 7ViS10o
UU TV II.
Owing to the fact that most of the
conservative Interests In the corn trade
seemed disposed at first to take a bull
ish position the market for tho cereal
did not yield promptly to the Influence
of larger receipts here. On the contrary,
cruel auenuoa given to reports mat.
tne new com arriving contained an un
due amount of moisture. But araduallv
misgiving developed as to the prospect
of an unlooked for volume of fresh sup
plies next wees. iongs increased tneir
sales, both In December and deferred
options, so that an early advance In
price was wiped out, ana a material set
back took place.
Feeling at the dose, however, was
steady.
Wheat firmness wore out under pres.
sure ot bearish sentiment regarding corn.
There was also talk that holders In the
United States had overstayed the foreign
demand, that competition now bad the
lead abroad and that domeatlo Invest
ment ought not be to be counted on to
enlarze during during the holiday sea
son. Aa advance at Liverpool, and 2,000
bushels falling off In primary receipts
for the week wero sufficient on the other
hand to prevent any serious decline.
RtejutlnMB ruled at the close.
Oats lost ground with com. Selling
was more 'persistent than for some time.
One ot the largest elevator companies was
conspicuous In letting go.
Plentiful receipts ot hogs unnerved the
holders of provisions. Besides the pit
took further note ot decreased demand
for meat

NEW YORK JTOGK MARKET
Bear Traders Find it Comparatively
Easy to Bring Prices Down.
Market firm at the outset
Bank Stntemvnt, Shorting (lain of
Over r.laht Million, an Aaree
able Surprise to Walt
Slreel.
NEW YORK. Dec 13,-llear traders
found It comparatively easy today to put
down stocks to the lowest level of the
Present decline. Most ot tho selling was
by the trading element en the floon
whose efforts were furthered by the gen
eral lack of outside Interest and an
absonco of damnnd around the current
levels. Tho fact that tho market ul
timately rallied and closed a shade higher
on the day reflected no Improvement so
far as was discernible In the character of
trading and probably was due merely to
covering such as Is usual at wook ends.
At the outset tho mnket was firm,
with a brisk demand tor slocks which
have been especially weak recently. New
Haven was bid up a point on the first
few transactions. American Telephone,
however, did not respond to the move
ment, soon reaching a new low point.
Other stocks quickly weakened under the
hoar attack, und soon the whole market
wua falling. , ,
On tho decline New York Central
reached 91, Pennsylvania lOd and Ameri
can Telephone 114H, all new low marks
for several years. New Havon, however,
kept slightly above Its low record, and
on the final rally showed more strength
than for several days. A good deal of
significance was attached to tho upturn
In this stock, which for a time was the
strongest In the list It was said that ac
cumulation ot the stock by important In
teiests was In progress.
Th bank statement was an agreeable
surprise to the street. A cash gain of
ever 38.001X000 exceeded the largest esti
mates and with a small decrease lit de
posits, tho surplus was more than doubled.
Bonds were depressed, with deoldod
heaviness In soma actlvo Issues. Total
gales, par valuo, 31.272,000. . , .

a higher tendency again on Thursday and
Friday and as during tha for part ot
th weak tho bullish feeling was at
tributed to light receipts and also to a
great scarcity of well finished offerings,
which have been non too plentiful since
the corn-fed stuff commenced to come
back from the country. Choice grades ot
the right weights have been In good de
mand, but the half-fat stuff was not
wanted as long aa anything better was
available. This feature of the trade be
comes more marked at the aooroach nt
tha holiday season whan the demand ts
nearly always confined to tha best cuts
of meat and poultry. Trad has been ex
tremely uneven and tha average advance
on the best lambs has been around 26033c,

with tho wishes of her fiance, wore a
heavy velt In order that ho could not

Mrs. Arnett was mt at the railroad
station by Allan Hartley. on of tho

Un Square church.
The minister, th Rot. Dt. Henry A.
Orlesemer, refused to wed tho couple un

"I thought some on might bo playing
