GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Bears in Wheat, Corn and Oats Are
Put to Rout.

Pntnre Whrnt for Thnt Month nnd

Held by the 111k Holders
In Ihlcnfto.
OMAHA. Jan. 15. 1914.
The bears In wheat, cofn and oata were
routed jesterday and made to see for
the moment that they were on the x.ront;
aide of the market. Even John Uarrett,
who was the bear leader for month and
month, wag reporting sales of cash
wheat at Kansas CUy fgr foreign ship
ment. This old-time bear was -ilso talk
ing quite bullish on the general situation
and tTiere was an army of professionals
traveling In hla foot-steps. The averago
wheat trader has made up tils mind, after
so long a time, that mora hard winter
wheat Is being sold for shipment olioad
than the speculative world Is awaro of.
These same people have also made l.p
their minds that this particular stock of
grain has dwindled down to abnormally
small proportions In the Chicago market,
and they now look upon tho short Bide
as rather hazardous tinder vresent condi
tions. The matter of advertising the big holder
of May and cash wheat nt Chicago would
be of no benefit to thoe who are short
the May future, and It Ss enoutth to say
that that month is tied up tightly and
that there Is no likelihood of the bears
getting out without receiving a rap across
the speculative knuckles. The situation
in wheat may be callsd abnormal. Whllo
the stocks here are not large, tho umount
In the visible supply Is nbove the average
and In some of the larger markctB the
amount of wheat now being carried Is of
good size. Those who are speculating In
this grain and who havo adhered to the
bull side for a long time fall to consider
on very Important factor, and that is
that never In the history of the Chicago
Hoard of Trade has the weather been as
favorable for moving wheat after It was
harvested and threshed ns during 1913.
Up to the present time In 1914 tho weather
In tho country where tho wheat was held
was favorable for threshing and hauling
to tho railroad stations.
Advances were shown of lUfflHc In
corn and the trade was of enormous pro
portions, with the shorts eagerly cover-
ering, and many of tho longs Belting in
order to secure profits. The shorts were
uneasy because of the delay In removal
of hedges by one of tho larger specula
tors, who sold quite a quantity, of tho
cash article In the last few wooks. Kan
sas City reported a slack demand there
on feeding account, with Iowa, offering
corn freely.
Oats followed corn and closed with
gains of 94c. The cash market was
a little higher at Chicago and Kansas
City. The more conservative men in the
trade declared they were unable to see
any prospcts for a bull market with the
liberal stocks in Chicago warehouses, as
well as in the vlslblo supply.
Provisions were strong and closed
higher. The lighter hog movement was
one of tho bull helps ana the strength
shown by corn was another. The buy.
Ing was led by private wire concerns.
Patrick Cudahy of Milwaukee was cred
ited with liberal sales of May pork, and
ribs.
Cash wheat was unchanged to Mc
hig.ler. Cash oats were Vic lower to Mo
higher.
Clearances: Wheat and flour equal to
653.000 bushels; corn. 4.000 bushels: oats,
4,000 bushels.
Liverpool close: Unchanged to Md

shipments of 490.000 bushels last year.

against receipts of 1,135,000 bushels and
shibments of 1.1G6.000 bushels last year.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trailing; anil Closlngr
Prices on Hoard of Trade.
CHICAGO, Jan. 16. Although wheat un
derwent some reaction today after the
rapid advance in the preceding Besslon,
thcro was considerable fresh buying due
to belief that much of the Australian
crop would bo required by Japan. The
market closed nervous, ranging from Ifec
decline to 4'4o advance, compared with
tho night before. Com finished Wo
off to Vic up, oats down 'Mr'.ic. and pro
visions varying from 2ii loss to a igaln
of 12o.
Notice of Increased demand for
Australian cargoes formed one of the
earliest Items that engaged the attention
of tho wheat trade. Later, the subject
was again Drougnt torwara Dy estimates
that tho Australian surplus would be
nearly 2,000,000 bushels less than the total
a year ago. It was not until near the
end of the day, however, that buyers
here learned of a more decisive Impetus
to action news from an authoritative
source that Japan was making ex ten
live Inquiries In Australia and was likely
to purchase heavily because or dlsap
pointing yields at home.
Liberal export sales at St. Louis and
elsewhere helped the wheat market to
rally late Iri the session. Reduced esti
mates of the Argentine yield counted
also as an element of strength. It was
a fact, nevertheless, that during most of
the day, prices were Inclined to uag, the
sudden forcing out or snorts yesterday
having deprived tha market of an lm
Dortant share of support.
General loosening un In offerings from
the country brought about a return of
bear pressure on corn. Unseasonably
mild weather that was expected to con
tlnue for several day added to the weak
ness, and so too did a lack of adequate
shinning call. On the other hand, thn
liull turn in wheat aided a rally toward
the last. For the most part, oata merely
followed the course of other grain. The
Buenos Ay res market was reported to be
excited and higher, because of disap
pointing returns.
Increases in the monthly statement of
warehouse -stocks led to a weakening of
tho provision list,. after a firm start. The
upward tendency at tho outsot cama
from higher prices for hogs.

belng received. For the week to date tho
total Is 42.430 head, bolng In tho neighbor,
hood ot 3,000 smaller than n week ago,
and about the same as for the corre
sponding days lost year.
Advices from other markets worn very
encouraging, and local shipper buyora
wero out early, buying good butcher
weight stuff at an advonco of fully 10e.
Packers wero slow In getting started, and
their first bidB worn no moro than a
nickel higher, but sellers refused these
offers, and when killers finally put up
thnlr ilrnvea the sales showed about the
samo advance as those mode to shippers
earlier In the day, so that the general
market can be quoted as a flat dime
higher. Movement 4vas fairly active after
the trade was onco under way, and every
thing was cleaned up In good season.
On the extreme cloeo the demand whip
ped up, and sellers who had hogs left ut
this time cashed them at decidedly
stronger prices, the late sales being
quoted In some cases as much as 15c
higher than yesterday.
Hulk of the sales was made at $8.00
8.25, nnd some real good butchers sold as
high as $8.30, setting a new high price
for the month. The quality of today's
offerings compared very favorably with
the earlier days of the week, and, taking
tho wcok U8 a whole, tha supply has
shown tho best quality that has been
seen here for quite a whllo,
Today's advance wiped out whatever
loss values suffered on the earlier days
ot the week, and this morning's markot
looks to be alt ot 5c higher than the trade
at the close of last week,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. The govern
ment's right under the puro food law of
1908 to censor circulars enclosed In paca
ages ot medicine on tho market is to be
passed upon by the supreme court.
Department of Agriculture officials
claim the public I being deceived every
day by exaggerated statements of the
efficiency of nostrums to effect all klnda
ot marvelous cures. They claim that tho
pure fpod la4v was enacted to wlpo out
this evil.
Manufacturers of medicines, however.
contend that tho pure food law merely au
thorises government officials to regulate
statements on tho labels of medicines,
and did not confer any authority over
circulars enclosed In packages.
The dlsputo botween the government and
tho manufacturers came to a sharp
Issue in Omaha recently, when the gov
ernment seized thirteen cases ot patent
medlclno shipped by a Philadelphia firm.
Each package contained the statement on
on enclosed circular that "we know It
linn cured and that It will cure tubercu
losis," and a further statement that It
"will serve as a preventive of pneu
monia." Tho federal district court of Nebraska
held that tho modlclne 4Vas inlsbranded
under tho puro food latv. The manufac
turer has appealod to tho supremo court
on tho ground tho pure food law deal.
4vlth labels and not circulars, and fur-
thcrmoro that the la4V as Interpreted by
tho Nebraska court 1. unconstitutional
Insofar as tho court held that the law
sought to glvo tho government a right to
pass en opinions as to the curative quali
ties ot tho medicines.
