Cnn Hani It.
OMAHA. Feb. 4. 1914.
The lack of demand for cash wheat,
corn and oats In the CIiIcbko market
from the milling and shipping interests
urged the selllag ot long grain and the
pulling otll or short nn venterclav. Tim
reported transactions here were the small
est in weeks. Millers are. It Is said, se
curing enough wheat at home to supply
their dally wants, and the shipping trado
Is experiencing no trouble whatever In
procuring all, or more, corn and oats
than they aro able to take care of.
While the present tlmo Is a dangerous
ono In which to put out short lines ot
wheat, because of the poss'bllity ot crop
scarps, there Is little on which to buy at
the moment. On the other hano, it secnis
aro to watch for the hard spots In corn
and bats and to soil a little short.
As a reflection of the uuli cash market
nt Chicago 200,000 bu. of wheat were sent
to public elevators yesterday. Kansas
City reported tho situation there as dull
and one message said that if It had not
been for a round lot Of wheat taken by
Chicago concerns ond which was lying
on the "bargain counter" of that market,
the sltuntlon would have been even
worse. There wan considerable wheat
sold hero yesterday on northwest ac
count In tho way of changing a "spread."
Thero was some buying at Minneapolis
by these same peoplet who are located at
Duluth. A great many ot tho local spec
ulators seem to placo considerable stress
pn tho cold wave In Nebraska as a bull
ish factor, but they refused to take on
nny great amount of wheat. The holders
of that grain In Nebraska were free sell
ers, showing little uneasiness because ot
tho temperatures being so low as 4 de
grees below xero over the state yesterday.
Farmers are selling their wheat more
freely, as was shown by the receipts at
primary marketB yesterday.
Tho snow map showed a trace In Mis
souri and South Dakota, a traco'ot 0.4
Inches In Illinois, the latter at Chicago.
There was a trace In Indiana, a trace to
four Inches In Ohio, a traco to six
Inches In North Dakota and Minnesota
and flvo to fourteen inches In Michigan.
Local longs were on the selling side of
corn in a liberal manner yesterday, and
as demand was slowe lower prices ruled,
there was llttlo on which to hold up the
country that still needs conditioning.
Oats was tho weakest spot In tho grain
list yesterday. Thero was no cash de
mand, and with the weakness In corn
there wa sllttlo on which to hold up tho
oats.
The bearish stocks of hog products In
the Chicago market, and which were pub
lished In the Examiner yesterday, were
reflected In tho general situation. Pack
ers were heavy sellers and scattered longs
were on tho selling side too. The buying
was scattered.
Cash wheat was unchanged.
Cash corn was unchanged to lc hlghor.
Cash oats were unchanged to Vie lower.

NKW YORK. Feb. 4.-1itvrstment buy
ing ot stocks ond bonds cnntlnueil In fair
volume twlay, with an Increasing demand J
for shares with well established records !
ns dividend payers. The effect of this I
buying was neutralized by tho tendency
of professional operators to play for a
reaction, and an a result tho day a move- j
tnont wus contused. The upward and j
downward swings recently havo balanced
each othejr so evenly that the price nv-!
crags varies only slightly from thnt ot j
lunniKui hko, nnu ll wan inc ict-iiuk
ot hoard room trndara that n substantial
setback was to be looked for before the
market would develop sustained strength.
Thero wan some selling of stocks on
this theory, but tho bears jvero able to
mako llttlo headway.
Tho market eased off In the early trad
ing, but quickly hardened. During the
mid-session quotations advanced under
the lead of Reading and Smelting, but in
only a few cases did tho upturn In the
popular shares exceed fractions. Toward
tho end of tho session selling became
more vigorous and tho list turned down
ward sharply, until many ot tho active
stocks were forced xmder yesterday's
close.
President Wilson's proclamation lifting
tho embargo on shipment of arms to
Mexico had llttlo effect on tho market
other than to stimulate shares of com
panies directly concerned with Moxlcai-
conditions. On the theory that the presi
dent's action brought nearer tho estob.
Itshment of peace In Mexico these stocks,
such an Mexlcivi Petroleum and Pmeltlug,
were bid up strongly. General Motors
continued to fluctuate Irregulnrly. It
opened off 4 points at 62, as compared
with yesterday's high of 63. Lnter It shot
up to WH and closed at 66V4. New Havon
and the Can shares were wenk.

CATTIK Receipts wore extremely light
for a Wednesday and the total tor the
three days amounts to only 10,388 head,
being around 6,000 head smaller than for
tho corresponding period during recent
weeks and 3.000 head smaller than for
tho corresponding tlmo a year ago.
It spits of tho light rcceluts the market
was In very unfavorable condition, so far
as boot steers wero concerned. Chicago
has been getting too many cattle and
the eastern consuming centers have been
flooded with beef. Aa a result tha demand
for llvo cattlo at all points has been
extremely poor all week. Tho trado this.
morning was not only slow, but prices
were anywhere from steady to 10a lower.
Tho only remedy for existing conditions
Is for lighter receipts of cattlo at east
ern points, such as Chicago, and thus
glvo tho market a chanco to recover.
Cows and heifers woro very slow and,
at thn best, were barely steady with yoi-
leruay,
Thero were only a very few .dockers
and feeders In sight and the moved at
about steady prices, but tho feeling was
that with anything like liberal receipts
the market would havo boon a llttlo lower
In sympathy with tho weakness In beef
steers.

ing tendency to prices In the last few
dayn created a bullish feeling In the gen
eral trado In sheop and lambs every
where. The local supply amounted to only
about 4,800 head, which was less than a
third of what arrlvod on the market one
and two weeks ago. Tho receipts on thn
corresponding day a year ago wero 6.803
head. It was largely a owe market, for,
with tho exception ot two or throe loads
of lambs, the offerings were all owes,
there being more ewes on sale than for
several days back. Tne, general quality
of tho offerings was little, If any. differ
ent from yesterday and asldo from a few
owes nothing very good was offered.
The bulk of tho killers were picked up
In good season with both ewes and lambs
strong to 1015c higher than tho general
run of the transactions yesterday. Tho
meager supply of lambs went at a ran go
of J7.15O7.40 against J7.0OtT7.2S on the day
previous and tho ewes moved largely
around J4.8MT5.26, compared with J4,750
6.15 yesterday.

Demands Hobson's i
Pay Deducted for
Time He Was Away
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-A mild flurry
among tho members ot the house fol
lowed tho filing of a formal demand to
day by W. II. Parker of Birmingham,
.. 4U
. cn
..1100
.. 713
Ala., that Representative Richmond Pier
son Hobson be denied his salary aa a
congressman for the days ho has been
absent from his seat while campaigning
for the senate against Majority Leader
Underwood.
Parker In an affidavit alleged that Rep
resentative Hobson was absent from Jan
uary 19 to January SI and protested
against tho payment of tha salary due
him for that time. The protest was filed
with Sergcant-at-Armt Gordon and all
of tho legal talent about tho office is at
work to find out the law on the subject.
They have discovered a long forgotten
law, passed In 1858 and still on tho statute
books, providing:
"Tile secretary ot the senate and the
scrgeant-at-arms. of the house, respec
tively, shall deduct from the monthly pay
ments of each member or delegate the
amount ot salary for each day that he
has been absent from the senate or house,
respectively, unless such member or dele
gate assigns as reason for such absence
the sickness of himself or some member
of his family."
Cloak rooms and corridors about the
houso chamber resounded with arguments
among members who would be much dis
turbed by a general application of the
law.
