WHEAT FAVORING THE BULLS
Reports Arc to the Effect that There
Are Decreanrn In Nearly All at
the noatlnt Statistical
Sappllrs.

OMAHA. Neb.. April 2S, 1911.
May wheat shorts are In a dilemma.
The opnlnn In that month on the Chi
cago Board of Trade Is much larger than
the average speculator knohs und the
controlling Interest In that future con
trols th cash wheat of Chicago as well.
These conditions leave the shorts at the
mercy of tho Ions, as the only loophuia
that should lie available is closed off,
Because of these conditions there Is a
detlro on. the part of many In the trade
to make another attemot to chnnire the
rules of the board so that deliveries on
contracts may bo made on the tracks.
When the statistical position of wheat
Is considered, the changes during tela
week, favored tho .bulls no little. There
were decreases of marly all the routine
statistical supplies, 2,!Ul,WO bushels In tho
visible, leaving the total at .baS.XO bush
els, or 4,&k.um bushels smal.eir than for
the corresponding time last year. The
Canadian wheat visible also showed a
goodly decrease at .H.2U6.01W bushels and'
Is now 1S,C4?,000 bushels, or 400,000 bushels
larger than a year a so.
There were losses In the wheat market
yesterday of HtjTtc. anu crop conditions
warranted this setback. There were a
few telegrams received here from west
ern Canada and from our own northwest
telling of the weather both sides of tho
line being top cold and wet for seeding
the crop, but an official estimate on the
seeding In Canada makes that of Alberta
75 per cent, Saskatchewan 80 and Manl
t6ba S3.
As the month of May approaches the
longs In May corn continue to drop by
the wayside. The average speculator Is
slow to take In corn and pay (or It. for
tbe simple reason t!tat not one In a dosen
are experienced In merchandising grain
and Ihey would rather suffer a lose than
have something fastened to them that
they cannot dlspoto of without n great
deal of trouble and loss.
Provisions were weak and again lower
on the lessening of tho tension In the war
i. news. Cash prices were weak and lower
also, and the volume of trade was small
'land disappointing to packers.
Cash wheat was unchanged to '4c lower.
'Cash corn was "ltto lower.
Cash oats were unchanged to Uo lower.
Clearances of wheat and flour were 260,.
COu bu.; corn, 18,000 bu.; oats, 3,000 bu.
At Liverpool wheat closed HUHd lowet ;
cOrn, Hd lower.
Primary wheat receipts were 540,000
bu. and shipments 520,9xj bu., against re
ceipts or i,;x.(au du. anu anipmems oi

C1UUAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Features of the Trndinn nnd Closing
Trice on Board of Trade.
CrflCAGO. April 23.-Abundaht mois
ture in all quarters gave the wheat mar
ket today a bearish turn. Closing prices,
although steauy, were &c to Hfrttc under
last night. Corn suffered a net decline of
?Wc to iQlVtc and oats a netoacK ot
'iwUc to In provisions the oiitcomu
varied from 5c loss to a rise of 2VwTCc.
Rains that fell over the entire winter
and spring wheat belts wero regarded as
a great boon to crops, for notwithstand
ing that seeding In homo parts of he
northwest was delayed by the storm tho
good done even In such sections more
tnarr counterbalanced the harm.
Many big houses were active In selling
wheat on the decline and In prevent.ng
any Important rally. One of tho reasons
for this course was the absence of hope
for material improvement In European
demand during the next two months.
Desire to avoid taking deliveries on
May contracts had much to do with
weakening the corn market aa a wholn
Fine weather In Argentina .added td the
Vtiirrifi nt npff-pii. In ttin nntir rmwA
sympathy with the depression In other
grains was manifest, but over-generous
selling' was quickly checked by elevator
concerns.
Liquidation sales by miscellaneous hold
ers carried down provisions. Packers,
however,- were alert buyers on tho. break
and. succedcd.ln causing an early level.

CATTLE Receipts of cattle were fairly
liberal today, about 4,000 head in all, and
tho proportion of desirable beef steers
included In the. offerings was larger than
It has been tor some time.
Somewhat favorable advices from east
ern markets, the cooler weather and the
excellent quality of the moderate offer
ings made a very satisfactory trade from
the sellers' standpoint, and business was
active right from the start at prices
ranging trom fully steady to as much as
a dliiio higher than Monday. It would be
Safe to sav that the hulk nf tho battle
sold fully a dime better than the close
pf last week, and the activity In the mar-
nei was a particularly gramyipg feature.
Strictly Choice heavv beevnn snlrl 11 r li
$8.5, or as high as anything of the kind
niu boiq recenuy.
There was also a much better tone to
the market for stockers and feeders, the
demand from all sources being good and
the proportion of she stock comparatively
small. Strictly choice heifers sold up to
$8.40, and tho bulk of tho fair to good
butcher stock went at a spread of 46. 4)
u't.v. vchi caives, ouiis, slags, etu.,
were ail steady to a little stronger than
yesterday.
In stockers and feeders there was notii
Ing new. Desirable .lightweight steers
and heifers and yearlings found a ready
sale at strong to higher prices, while tho
heavy grades were not much sought after
,fe,er buyoro and went largely to
the killers ut better prices than the feeder
?Wrei?.w.ere wm',P , Pay- Huppllos ot
this kind were limited and the volumo
of business necessarily small, although
the undertone was strong and the limited
fresh supply changed bands In short
order.

HOOS Receipts were ery moderate
for a Tuesday, about 10S cars, or 7,300
head, being received. This makes the
total for the two days 12.16S head, 6.000
smaller than last week, and almost 8,000
head lighter than the corresponding das
last year.
Shippers bought a number of loads of
good light and butcher weight hogs this
morning at prices that were not oer a
nickel lower, paying around $136 for uich
stuff as Just suited them. A top of $8.S7li
was paid by a shipper buyer. Bearish ad
vices from all other market points started
a sharp slump In the Packer market. No
bids, were mado by killer buyers until
ell along In the forenoon and when thoy
finally did start out their offers wero all
of a dlmo nnd In many cases as much as
IOSI60 below yesterday's general market.
With buyers trying to take euch a larae
whack at vatues the trade was very dull,
and not much or anything sold until weli
along towards ll o'clock. Sellers were
holding out In an effort to regain at
least a part of the slump, but even with
tho light supplies they were unable to
better their early bids to any great ex
tant, and when the supply finally stprtcd
to move alowlv the figures paid wcie
right around 10c lower.
Most of the packers' purchases wero
made at $8. stiffs. 30. with a sprinkling
down to $8.25, and the bulk of nil tho
sales can be quoted at $8.25.S5. Taklut
tho market nil the way through, values
nro fully 5Sl0c lower, anil most or tho
sales were made at tho long end ot tho
decline. Trade was extremely slow
throughout and It was after midday be
fore anything llko a clearance was made.

In cither ewes or lambs today, as most
everything sold In practically tho same
notches as yesterday. While the receipts
were short of last Tuesday and two
weeks ago. they were about the same as
a yfar ago, being estimated at some 8,700
ncnci. as on aionaay. trade, was a. trine
slow In getting under way, but once
buyers and sellers agreed on about steady
prices, tho general market had a very
fair degree of activity resulting In another
sefasonable clearance. It might be men
tioned that the woolen orronngs were in
better condition this morning.' that Is.
they were dry, whereas yesterday they
.wiru moro or less wet because of the
rain. Other markets were reported early
aa siow witn a weaK ana lower tendency,
A good representation of wooled fed
westtrn lambs were on hand, which sold
at a rango of S7.fi0ifr7.90. The Mexican
