and Future i.
CORN BULLS IRE MORE ACTIVE
OMAHA, March 4. 191.
An acute condition has been reac hed In
the cash wheat situation, as the demand
exceeds the offerings. Mav wheal is
congested. Comparatively little new buai
nesB is coming into the market, and the
Interests which usuaUy have large stocks
at this season are practically cleaned out.
There Is some hedging on the part of
millers who have not heretofore sold
against their cash wheat holding". Borne
of It is In Mn.v, but July la regarded as
safer than May, because of the scarcity
of cajh. wheat.
Evidence is rapidly accumulating that
the I'nlted States will go into the new
wncai crop with pra tlcally empty bins.
One of the bet Informed exporters cslled
attention to the fact that the highest
estimate on reserves for export and carry
over for the next four months Is only
lO'.Ono.noo bushels of which about 35.000,-
000 bushels are already sold for shipment.
Without selling any mora wheat this
would leave only C5.000.000 bushels to carry
over June Jo, against 76,000,000 bushels
last year. i
Corn bulls predict' light receipts and
say that the bulk of the marketable
stocks are now in the show windows.
They expect supplies, will decresse stead
ily from now on. Continued heavy ex.
port buying of oats has created a friendly
feeling to the buying side of futures on
the belief that the surplus has been ex

CHICAGO, March 4 Sensational reports
that millions of dollars in orders for war
materials from the I'nlted States had been
cancelled In the last twenty-four hours,
nearly knocked tho bottom today out of
the wheat market here. After a fall of
7Hc a bushel, prices closed Wild St 4'fc4i'

net decline or 1 Wise to IV, anci oata
of lHc Provisions made a ragged fin
ish, ranging from lo off to a raise of 5c.
Stampede selling so urgent that prices
snapped lc to 3o between trades hardly
a moment apart took plaoe. In the wheat
pit as soon as even a hint was caught
of the possibility of an early peace. No
details referring to peace were tven ex
cept that tho order supposed to havo
been nullified w-ere largely for ammuni
tion. It waa not until wholesale unload
ing had been done by holdera of wheat
that denials which seemed to possess

suing pwm rally si tna rim ui -' -
slon was In line with counter statements
that there had been no diminutive re-
oently In thev volume of orders for war
material, nor had there been any con-
collation.
Heforn the wheat market had gone to
pieoes on me conclusion juinpeu n inm
the supposed csncelllng of orders for
war material might mean soma Important
move to end hostilities, the course of
trading wss nervous and Irregular, but
within ordinary limits.
The break later waa In the face of one
of the best demands for cash wheat In
some time and of assertions by tho presi
dent of one of the Isrgest grain com
panies here that all the wheat available
at present would be freely taken by for
eigners if the market were to advance
as much as 20 cents a bushel.
Corn suffered In sympathy with the
break in wheat. Tbe bull side whs also
handicapped by larjte stocks and the.
slowness of shipping call. Onta displayed
Independent spirit, but finally tumbled
like other cereals. The heaviest trading
was after prices began to fall In
earnest.
Support by packers helped to give com
parative stability to provisions. Weak

in grain were, however, decided sources
of disturbance.

ueing Slightly smaller than for the same
period last week or a year ago. The mar
ket ou beef ste-rs opened very active and
steady to a little higher' than yesterday.
Alter ttie nrsi round or two ouyers
seemed to come to the conclusion that
wun otner market points reported n
opening ateaay tnore was no gooa reason
for advancing prices here. The market
accordingly lost its early activity, closing
slow and weak with the morning s ad
vance lost
Cows and heifers showed the same
strength and activity as beef steers In
the morning, but they, too, closed slow
and weak.
Ktockers and feeders were firm, owing
to the good buying demand and moderate
tiJjf that has prevailed all the week.

HOGS At the time of closing yester
day's report there were still In the neigh
borhood or forty or firiy loads still In
flist hands which packers were trying
to buy around li.S7VH.40. in the end
most of these sold at $6.40. although some
ten loads were held over for today's mar
ket. As these last hogs, which sold
slightly lower than the earlier ones, were
not weighed Until late It was lmpossihle
to get them in the representative sale
column, and for that reason the market
aa shown there looked slightly uetter
than It should have done.
Only a moderate Thursday run showed
up this morning, and sven with the few
held over from Wednesday there was
only a fair supply on hand. A heavy
snowstorm which started yesterday sft
ernooa and was still In full swing this
morning was probably responsible for tbs
decrease In receipt. Trade opened out
dull. Early packer bids were barely
steady w'.th yesterday's average ,or about
the same as yesterday's close, and as
sellers were asking a nickel higher noth
ing much sold on the early rounds. I-ater
on offers were raised to a full steady
basis, but only a few sold at this time;
and a general movement did not start
KZl'KJ rs" ,;hi.:r:hh:d
shout given up hopes of getting a Sc sd-
I vance, and after buyers started oriering
I prli-es that were shout 2'e better than
yesterday s aversge It wss not long until
the big end of the offerings started to
move sralewnrd. Trade never became
cry active.
The general market Is Just a -ehade
higher than Wednesday's average. Bulk
of the supply moved at $6.4244.4.Y. with
a sprinkling at 16.40 and a few hoas sold
as high aa l.474. Tops reached Irt.fA

in a moderate supply this morning, aa
only some 6,TiO head were reported In, as
agiilnst 12,402 head a week ago and 11.000
head on the corresponding dsy a year
ago. on account of the snow storm a
great many of the offerings were wet,
putting them In poor condition for ready
sale.
Aa usual, when the receipts are wet,
Ihe market was a drag n.ost of the fore
noon, consequently little of consequence
took place until near Ihe noon hour.
What few salea were made during the
early hours Included a load of Mexican
lambs, that sold on shipping account at
$!.60, and a car of fed western ewes that
were good enough to bring 17.60, the
highest since April, 1010. The general
t ti market was steady lo easier on lambs
0 18 and strong on aged ahtep. The clear

of the week's) trade. The light runs at
Chicago have been a bullish farture, as
well aa the satisfactory condition of the

consequent strong shipping demand.
Feeder lamb selling to shear and for a
