The longs In May wheat will more than
likely make a last effort to get out of

CHICAGO. April 8. Misgivings about
the chance that wheat -would bo damaged
by the freezing temperature southwest
helped to offset today the bearish influ
ence of the government crop report. Ac-i
cordlngly' prices closod firm at 'a shade
to Vie net decline. Corn wound up
'.4o to Ho above Monday night, oats down
Uo to Vic and provisions with a gain of
&&7Hc to 2Hic
Good buying brought about -Tin early
recovery from acute weakness In wheat.
Tho selling drive on account of tho gov
ernment figures did not become as severe
as expected. Not only was tho cold snap
a check on the bears, but the Bteady
cables and the outlook for both delay to
seeding and for falling oft In receipts
northwest tended to favor a rally.
Some confusion arose In regard to what
sized crop the returns would Indicate.
It Is explained by a leading expert hero
that the assumption of nineteen bushels
an acre as par and a resulting cstlmato
of 662,000.000 bushels for the total yield
Is not official, but a mere trade calcula
tion, and It is not In accord with tha
official way of figuring. The government
is using seventeen and one-half bushels
as par. On this basis and on an averago
amount of winter killing the government
report would suggest a crop of 551,000.000
bushels. Disregarding winter killing this
year, howover, as virtually negligible nnd
figuring tho crop deterioration from now
till harvest will equal a ten-yoar average,
the report would .Indicate a crop ot ,
CnOW)D bushels. '
Much spirit was shown on tho buying
sldo of corn. At .one lime the flrBt actual
sale of a cargo of Argentine corn for
delivery In Chicago led to a setback, but
the effect failed to last. It appeared that
tho cargo might not come here, but bo
mor profitably disposed of In New Engj
land. Lightness of receipts hero and
west, together with more urgent demand
from Interior consumers, encouraged the
bulls. Oats, although higher early with
corn, gave way later on account of com
petition of Canadian cargoes from Lake
flra rrltV nf hnt?S lifted provisions, A

CATTLE Cattle looked uo this morn
ing, the market being more active and
showing more Bnap and strength than
on any previous day this week. Reef
steers of deslrablo quality were 10a higher
ana active at tnau Tiie nest price paid
for a full load was $8.75. Less desirable
kinds, as a matter of course, were not
so much sought after, but the feeling on
all grades was at least strong,
Cows and heifers were In good demand
and fully steady with the lighter grades
of heifers, and cows on tho heifer order
a' little stronger.
Tiiere were hardly any stockers and
feeders In tho yards, the auimly belne
limited mostly to a few loads ot odds and
ends. The feeling was steady with yes
terday. Everything In sight was sold at an
early hour. The strength In the mar
ket, both at this point and elsewhere,
was duo apparently to the very light re-
i-mi'is ai an me nig marxets this week,
The supply here today amounted to only
103 cars, the total for the three days this
week amounting to 1,417, being the small
est of any similar period thus far this
year, and smaller than for the corre
sponding three days a year ago by over
4,000 head.

1? H0O8--Ilocelpts were moderate this
morning, about 134 cars, or 9,3S0 head, be
ing re elved The three days' total Is
37.333, a gain ot almost 7.(00 over last
week and over WW heavier than tho
same days last yenr.
Advices from other points were encour
aging this morning and the local demand
uas good, so that buyers made their
nrly bids at prices that were strong with
yesterday's close, and strong to Re higher
thsn the Average market. Trade was
rather draggy during the early rounds,
ns sellers were asking for a nickel ad
vance, and buyers refused to pay It. As
the morning advanced, howsver, offers
strengthened up a little here and there
and by the time- the supply began to
move the figures paid looked to be Just
about Co higher thnn yesterday's general
market Killers all had good sited or
ders and under the Influence ot keen com
petition the mnrket continued to
strengthen until the hogs that were sold
along toward tho close were quoted as a
big ntokel up, nnd some of the droves
cashed at this time looked to be right at
7Ho higher than Tuesday's average. The
general msrket Is fully be higher, closing
it the high time.
As was mentioned, trade wss slow dur
ing the early rounds, hut after a trading
basis was reached the movement became
fairly active. Towards the lalit things
moved rather slowly, hut tl'.U was due
to sellers efforts to boost prices as high
a thuy could, and Indicated no weak
ness In the market A fair clearance
was made1 by a reasonably early hour.
nulk of the rate landed to 33.tr.ff8.rA
ml top reached 38.55. Thlif puts prices
back where they were before the break

HIIEBP A small sunnlv of 8.300 head
ot sheep and lambs set the packers
scrambling for some good killers this
morning, which was in marked contrast
to the slow and dull trade on tho former
days of tho week. With normal receipts
xqe rest or tne ween tins was consld
ered as no Indication that the market
would continue to improve. Prices today
shot up lOffZOa on both ewes and Iambs,
and It was not long before anything was
sold. While tho sales look as much
higher on paper as already quoted, It
might be added that the aeneral nualltv
of the offerings was better than on any
pluvious a ay 01 in weea.
A fair Proportion of the reclnts con
sisted of Mexican lambs, which changed
hands early at a range of $S, 1006.15, the
latter price being top for the day and
tt'MK. Fed western grades were we shed
up at $7.607.!5. Only ono load of shorn
lambs was offered and these went at 27.
Kwes that Drought 3D. 40 yesterday sold
at 16.60 this morning, and some less do
strable grades sold nt $6.26. Aside from
this little else transpired in the aged
sheen division.

went dry by a considerable majority.
Harry 13. Ztmman opined that the or
ganization Is going somewhat out of Its
way in Us efforts at Investigating condi
tions of humidity and torrldlty In Omaha,
and In the course of his remarks went so
far as to suggest the Inutility of the 8
o'clock 'and the Albert laws. For this
Mr. Zlmman was roundly taken to task
by his fellow leaguers.
Laurie J. Qulnby, who lives In Dundee
and regulates In Omaha, ted the on
slaught on tha Zlmman Idea, and waa
supported by F. V. Ramsay, who doesn't
like to be called "doctor," but who does
like nn argument; Henry W, Morrow,
who founded the league, and therefore
knows better than anybody else what ita
cope and powers are; Miss F, R. Graves,
the only woman present, who insisted
the laws mentioned arc doing good.
Donald J. Burke, chairman of the In
vestigating committee, made report to
the effect that the committee had so far
discovered nothing worth reporting. Dy
a vote of the league the committee was
Instructed tn stick to the' Job until It
docs discover something. It was over
this Instruction that Zimtnan raised th
rumpus, as he held to the view that the
league hns no authority to appoint a per
petual committee.
Henry W. Morrow, chairman of the
committee named to Investigate the police
court, nlso reported he had nothing to re
port. He was told to' continue his In
quiry. The league adjourned at an early hour.

ot the socta', ,i-nter organization. These

J. A. Frye, secretary, and Frank Stirl
ing, treasurer.
The constitution proposed with a num
ber ot amendments Wss adopted, and
on the advice ot President C. T. Walker
ot the school board, It was worded to
prevent the endorsement of any candi
date or political proposition,,
"I have observed that politics and re
ligion are the rocks on which many soc
ial center organizations are stranded,"
said President Walker. "Special care
must le taken to prevent these subjects
being Injected into the organization, for
dlrscnslon and factional splits always fol
low. It Is proper for a city official to
sprak before the clubs and leagues in
the school houses ot the city, but when
I hear that aucti a speech has been turned
Into a political campaign talk,, the privi
lege ot meeting tn the school buildings
wllj be withdrawn the follqwlng day, tt
the organization permits such a speech to
be given."
