OMAHA, April 37. 1911.
"'The holders of corn In the Chicago
market tire .greatly encouittscu oer tile
delay tn the shipments trout, Argentine,
as It means a great ideal oTmon-y tn
their pockets, and there was talk late
Saturday ot gooa.y tsuies ut tn cash
article for cuutern shipment. The re
ported transactions, huwever, were only
200,000 bushels, jet they were doubtuss
much In excess of these f.gurea. Con.
alderable of the corn held hero has been
ordered loaded .Into vctlels. and some ot
It has already been moved gut ot the
Chicago harbor and a goodly reduction
In the stocks is expected to be repotted
today. The situation In torn has cnanged
wonderfully In the last tew .days. The
most ardent bulls gave up their position
on that side and broke, linad with the
bears. Friday and Snturday, however,
there was a reversal of conditions be
cause of the henvy rains over the corn
bell of Argentina, which will cut down
the movement for the next three or four
weeks.
The Improved demand for our corn was
noticeable as early as Friday, when the
sales of the cash article for shipment to
eastern manufacturers were made. The
literary bureaus in both the bull una
bear camps In corn have made every
effort to nut news In circulation that
would bo likely to. help their' rcspeotlve
aides. Owing to the recent bull cam
paign in corn, thdro are many In the
trade here who taJfe'to that side of the
market readily, in tjio belief 'that higher
prices are again to rule. It was the
Argentine corn that recently caused
trouble tn tho ranks ot the corn bulls,
and In case it Is held back for a few
weeks in order to dry It out. It will be
come a factor In favor of the bulls again.
There Js no possible chance of the
United States exporting corn, and- the
shipments from here during the last week
were light. It Is well known that farm
, era of this country use nearly all the
corn grown here, and that the Argentine
corn is taken only because It Is cheaper
than our own grain.
4 Conditions surrounding the wheat mar
ket are abnormal. The crop, promise was
never as good as It Is at the present
time, the dernand tor the cash article
ws never nny blower and the visible is
a big One. The only. .Unfavorable .crop
reports received at Chicago- on Saturday,
and In fact during the last .week, wafs
from points In Kansas, where dry"
weather Is said to exist, but that par-

NEW YORK. April 27. -The sudden
Shift In the Mexican situation raiiaivl n
complete reversal, in 'the stock market
iunjr. inc proposal - tor -meaiotion and
Huerta s reported acceptance came at a
time when the market had beenr sold
nut. and was In an exceptionally stronsr
position technically. It was owing to the
condition ot affairs thut the inarkot
made such n swift and decided responae
as camo today. Shorts were stampeded
and for halt an hour nftcr tho opening
trading was excited. Klrst prices were
one to four points higher. The movo
ment In Mexican Petroleum was spectacular,-
This stock lost eleven point last
week, owing to fears of damage to Its
property, located In Mexico. It opened
ten points higher today and then bounded
up to slxty-lsht points, an advance of
fifteen and a quarter notnts. No such
, performance had been witnessed on the
stock exennnge since the historic riare In
Rock Island several years n,ga The Mex
ican Petroleum had been heavily sold on
last week's break and today's spurt was
aua to euoris or paniony snorts to cover
As soon ns th rush Was over the prion
,,ell W '.ft,y h-tl
lost all Its flttecn-polnt gain and a point
mors.
Smelting, which has large Interests In
Mexico, made an exceptional opcnlna;
gain of four points. Every party of the
list showed decided strength, but the
upturn was duo principally to covering
and represented little In the wav of ag
gressive bullish operation. The prospects
of successful solutlou of the MexICHn
problem by mediation were considered
too uncertain to-justify confident trading
on the long feldt. A few stocks. Including
Lehigh Valley and- Canadian Pacific,
showed losses'-at the close. Colorado
Iron, Influenced by the disastrous Colo
rado trlke, was especially lieaVy.
London played n large part In the
day'a movement. American stocks "were
moved up strongly before the opening

CATTLE The week starts out with a
modernte run of cattle, about 3,600 head
or soma 1.300 short of a wek ago.
The proportion of beet stcar was not
as large as last week, nor was tho nvor
age quality as .good. a. cdnslderahle per
centage of the offering! consisting of
half-fat westerns' and stock cattle. Bef
steers were In very active demand and
prices were anywhere from steady to ri
shade stronger than last week, the move,
ment being tollerably brisk all morning.
Best heavy cattle sold up to 13.76, and
really choice yearlings were compara
tively scarce.
If thore was any change in the market
for cows and heifers, as compared with
last week. It was In the direction of
Stronger figures, as the aunnlv rf vh
stock was limited and the demand fairly
uiunu. v m Hives were in good reqUust
and fairly steady, and bulls, stnira fir
add to really better advantage.
inera was on active trade in stock
cattle and feedlnc steera. nnd tho trH
of values was higher all along the lino
This was particularly true of tho light
mm mcuiuni wrignts, wnicn everyone
seemed to want. Country demand was
broader than for some time past, and by
the middle of the forenoon practically
all offerings had changed hands at the
stronger figures.

some good shlprrrs selling as high as

lower than SAturdsy'a average, but
nothing sold at this time and values im
proved as the morning advanced, until
hy the time the supply began to move
they were fully steady with Saturday s
early trade. Tho close was the strongest
time and thn market wound up with
prices anywhere from a shade to as
much as a nickel higher. On the whole,
today s trade. Is steady to 6c up, and the
average Is a good shade above the close
of last week.

More Money to Be
Asked for Support
of German Army
BERLIN, April 37.-MoJor General
Kelm, president of tha German Army
league, has started an agitation for an
other 1,000,000,000 marks (1250,000,000) for
army purposes, without which, he de
clares, the safety ot the country against
tho expected Frencn and Russian attack
cannot be guaranteed. This demand Is in
addition to the measure passed only last
year, voting an extraordinary war tax
of 3250.000,000. tho first Installment of
which has yet to be collected.
Speaking before tha branch of tho
Army league at Essen, incidentally tha
seat of tho Krupp works, General KeirrT
made a bitter attack on Count von
Hrrtllng, premier of Bavaria, who de
clared recently that tha burden of arma
ment taxation had reached Its limit and
that further war taxes must bo demanded
for years to come. General Kelm, who
roferred to the premier as "that man."
declared von Hertllng needed to study
political economy to learn that Germany,
whose resources were greater than thosa
of France, could afford to make as lib
eral sacrifices. He characterised von
llertllng's remarks as unconstitutional
and Impertinent, and said they would
have evoked Immediate protest from Ber
lin in tho days ot Dlsinarck,
"Tho truth Is," continued General Kelm.
"that wo are not as strong as our posslbld
opponents. Wa must make ourselves
much stronger than we are. Only when
we are strongly entrenched can we rob
our enemies of tho courage to attack us
from east and west and crush us as In
a vise. Is It not better for us to offer
up another billion and insure peaceT
Otherwise, If we do nothing to strengthen
our mllltarp power Jn tho approaching
war we shall see our wives and daugh
ters violated by the Cossacks and Turkos
(French African troops); France will take,
from us Alsace-Lorraine, Russia, Bast
and West Prussia, and we shall have to
pay an eventual war tribute ot at least
thirty billions."
This speech, with the, recent article by
General von Bernhardt of the same fac
tion, pointing out alleged grave deficien
cies In the country's military forces,
leaves no doubt that the Army league,
which by Its agitation paved the way for
last year's armament measures, Is plan
ning a new campaign. It offers some ex
planation, ot the recent article In the
Cologne Gazette, whose fit. Petersburg
correspondent declared unreservedly that
Russia was preparing to attack Germany
In 1917 a declaration which caused con
siderable embarrassment to German and
Russian diplomacy, which has been busy
for weeks with mutual dentals of any
provocative intent.
