OMAHA. Feb. 3T. 1911.
The fact was again demonstrated yes
terday thai foreigners want our No. 3
hold winter .wheat, and hat they arc
Witling to meet the vluws ot holders In
order to secure It. From day to day
there art reported sales of hard winter
wheat to go abroad, but tho amount Is
never correctly given out by cither the
buyer or the seller. The transactions
here yesterday amounted to 90.WW bush
els, of which 60,000 bushels were, mixed
lots and 40,00k bushels No. 2 hard win
ter, either for export or to exporters.
Winnipeg reported forty loads of Man
itoba as taken to go abroadt.
Wheat was, strung and fractionally bet
ter In this market, mainly In sympathy
with tho strength shown abroad, coupled
with soma bullish reports received from
the spring wheat country. The latest es
timate on tho northwestern country ele
vator stocks Is 15.000,000 bushels, com
pared with 25,000,000 bushels at this time
last month. Further large reductions are
locked for In these stocks for March be
cause of heavy sales of wheat made to
arrive at terminal markets. The millers
in the spring wheat country are said to
bo growing uneasy because ot small sup
plies available tor their purposes, and
one ot tho larger cash handlers at Min
neapolis says that tho manufacturers of
flour, not only at Minneapolis, but at
Interior points of the northwest, will be
obliged to secure their additional wheat
from Nebraska and other points, as it
will not; be available in the northwest
until laio next spring.
Cash "wheat was Vic lower.
Tho published fact that tho Armour
Orain company, personally or on account
oi its customers, were to De louna on
the bull side ot the corn market failed
to cause much ot a stir In that pit yes
teniay. The May future was a small
fraction lower, while tho deferred moutha

tUo absorption of Increased offerings toll
U the hands ot big men In, the trade, but
later thero wero losses along the entire
line. Cash corn was unchanged to he
higher.
Provisions were quiet yesterday and
pork and ribs wero a ah&da lower, while
iard was a trifle better. There was some
good buying by stock yards interests, and
Uils demand was met by profit-taking
longs. Packers were inclined to ailov
tho market to take care of itself. A
largor movement ot hogs Is expected fjr
the next week.
Cash oats were Uc lower.

Fcntures of the Trading: nnd Closing
Prices on Board, of Trnde.
CHICAGO. Feb. 27.-Australllan nnd
Russian competition led to a downturn
today In the price of wheat. The market
closed steady, but at Vlcto 4c net decline.
Corn finished the same an last night to
a sixteentn nigner, oats orr a shado to
He and provisions down 7W(M0o to 1214
15c.
Foreigners appeared to have made an
utmost unonlmous switch at least for the
time, being, in regard to their source of
wheat supply. Of late, It has taken stiff
bids to obtain shipments from Australia
or from Russa. Both countries today.
however, were reported as having put for
ward larger ana cheaper oners, in con
sequence, ocean freight room was said
to have been engaged with extraordinary
freedom at Sydney, the amount accord ng
to one authority being sufficient to take
care of the Australian surplus In full.
Mild weather In tho United States
winter crop region added to bearish senti
ment regarding wheat and prevented any
important reaction In values. There was
some talk ot export business here under
cover, but only the purchase of a few
straggling loaas couiu ua esiaousnea uc
yond Question.
Bull leaders came to the support of the
corn market and forced bears to retreat.
Prosnects ot continued fine weather had
tended at first to make sellers somewhat
aggressive, and so also had the good crop
outlook and argentlna. More notice whb
taken later of reoorts that country roads
were breaking and receipts mignt De ex
pected to diminish here next week, outs

Severn storms restricted new business
In many sections of the country this
week and caused delay In making de
liveries on old orders. The Intense cold
and hNivy snow fall stimulated activity
In seasonable merchandise nt retnll, but
the Interruption to . Renernl trade was
sufficient to retard distribution consid
erably. Traffic blockades hnmpo.red
ft eight movements, nnd reduced receipts
resulted In hlRher prices for various food
products.
While weather conditions had a ten
dency to check prottress In eomineninl
nnd Industrial channels, reports from
tho leading centers continue optlmlstlo In
tonor. Ilest news emanated from thoso
lines benefiting by tho low tempcraturef,,
notably heavyweight appurcl, footwear
and fuel.
Failures this week numbered 3M In tln
I'nlted States, ngnlnst 23 Inst ycat( nnd
forty-seven In Canada, compurcd with
thlrty-nlno a year ago.

HOGS Receipts were very folr for a
Friday, about 150 loads, or 10,00 head,
being received. For the week to date
the supply foots up 48,800, being nearly
12.001) smaller than last week, and almost
2,000 short of the same days last year.
Trade opened out in good shape this
morning, shippers and speculators buying
quite a number of loads of good quality
butcher and light weight hogs at prices
that wero right around 5c higher. As has
been the case all week, packers wore slow
in getting started and they made their
first bids nt prices that were If any
thing lower than yesterday's average.
Salesmen would not listen to any de
cline, however, and In tho end the buyers
had to come to time, so that when they
finally filled out their droves, values
were fully steady and in many cases
stronger than yesterday. Taking the mar
ket al) the way through prlcea are steady
to a nickel higher. Movement was rather
dull during the early rounds, but It liv
ened up later on and a clearance waa
made In fair season.
Bulk of the sales landed at $S.3Q8.rO,
and several loads touched $S.53, top for
the day. and tho highest price that has
been paid this week. Owing to the light
ness of the receipts of pigs the market
In that division has not cut much figure
so far this year, but it might be men-
