CHICAGO. Jan. 29. Forelgnera caneel
lna; spot purchase transactlona and then
turning; to tha eelllng aide of future de
livery brought about a aubstantlal de.
cline In the May wheat market hero.
Prlcea closed heavy, lflH to ISO net
lower, with May 81.84s4 and July
3l.5'ii. Corn gained 4 to H?". oats
finished H to Ajc down., and provlalona
varied from 7Hc decline to rlae of 70
cents. - ..
Aocordlna; to a well knewa authority,
the reselling of wheat by forelgnera waa
due to the prospect of a reduotlon In ves
sel rates and becauaa of signs that spec
ulatora bad overbought. Predictions were
out that ahlpmente from here to Europe
will ba generally enlarged In coneequenca
Of the lowering of veaael rates.
Advices from Mlntieapolie that ths
French government bought a larga
amount of flour at the highest . quota
tions this eeaaon created a rally In wheat
but the effect was brief.
Corn rose to a new high price record
for tha 1915 crop. Bullish eetlmatea aa to
tha also of the Argentine exportable aur
plua were largely responsible, together
with the unaettled weather In tha do
mestic belt . ... .
Oats weakened tinder free eelllng by
comrolealen heuaea.
January pork was bid up 70 cents ba
fort a belated email short could effect
a eetUement In the rr of tha llat val

"aa Carlo Company In Rta-olrtto."
In presenting Verdi's opera "Rlgoletto"
at the Auditorium last evening the Ran
Carlo Opera company not only equalled
Its triumphant success of the evening bo-
fore In "Alda," but. If anything, exceeded
It. The audleneo waa practically of the
same proportion of the opening evening,
attentive, courteous and enthusiastic, and
In the Instance of the well known "I.
Donna Mobile" and the famous quartet
waa cordial In applause and enthualastlo
In the reception of the well known gema.
Mma. ISdviga Vacarl aa Gllda looked
pretty, acted with a sweet Innocence and
slmplltcy and sang divinely. Her voice Is
of an opulent velvety quality, not over
heavy, but of good carrying' power, and
of a clearness and beauty In Its great
range that allowed her to soar to the
exquisite high notes of tha "Caro Nome"
In tha second act with ease and bril
liancy. Her voice Is also flexible and of
ft sympathetlo appeal, which adds much
to the dramatlo power of her acting.
"Caro Nome" waa heartily applauded and
encored. In her other solo work aha was
entirely adequate, and the duets In tha
second act both with Blgroletto and the
Duke were artiatlo and convincing to a
degree.
Blgnor Antola In tha title role created a
vivid impression of this difficult part.
His acting throughout waa Intensely real
istic, for at no moment did ha depart
from the character represented. In his
singing as welt as his acting there is a
freedom and ease which aided htm to give
free rein to the many moods and stress
of feelings depicted. Ha was especially
effective In the third and last acts when
he waa torn by many emotions. The final
duet between Gllda and Rigoletto waa one
of the finest bits of interpretation of the
evening and left a vivid impression with
tha audience..
Blgnor Agoatlnl as the Duke was like
wise admirable in his part, singing the
role of the profligate nobleman with a
whimsical Insincerity of manner, but
wheh was moat sincere, and with a wealth
of vocal power and fluency. His acting
was full of life and energy and Ma voice
of excellent quality and even brightness.
He instantly won favor with hie flrat
solo, which increased to the climax of tha
part in "La Donna Mobile" and the
quartet
Stella De Metta aa Maddalena charmed
both with her acting and her warm con
tralto, which added ao much to tha beauty
of the quartet Natale Cervi aa Mon
terona made tha most of a small part, as
did Pletro dl Blast and tha other members
of tha cast. Mr. Angellnl'a influence waa
felt throughout the opera, tha orchestra
playing with excellent ensemble and
beauty of tone. The dramatlo altuatlons
were clearly Indicated and expressed un
der his baton. Tha scenery and costumes
preserved the balance of excellence which
was displayed in the rest of the presenta
tion. This opera is one of the most tuneful
of the Immortal Verdi's, containing a
continuity of musical interest and melody.
It is handicapped by a libretto with low
moral tone and not in any way in keep
ing with the great beauty of the muslo
which clothea It. With tha exception of
Gllda, and a certain amount of pity felt
for the wretched Rigoletto, there Is not
much of sympathy to be felt for any of
the characters presented, and but for the
muslo there Is slight Interest in the text
The fourth act, with its many dramatlo
situations, is perhaps the strongest.

AL GREENWOOD DID WELL
AGAINST HEAVY OPPONENT
CRAWFORD, Neb., Jan. .-To the
Sporting Editor Omaha Bee: Referring
to the article In The Omaha Be which
appeared January SB regarding the tan-
round bout between Al Greenwood and
Tommy Smith In this city, in which
Greenwood claims be got the worst of
th popular decision. I wUh to say that,
as fsr as Ore en wood is concerned, he was
pitted against a man heavier than him
self and, while he put up a clever fight,
he was outwelghod and outfought.
The management endeavored to get
Montana Jack Sullivan of O'Neill to go
against Bmlth, but waa unsuccessful and
had to take a lighter man.
Smith's showing hers agalnat Green
wood waa a great surpria to tha many
fans who had witnessed some of his pre
vious work, many voicing the opinion
that Smith is cspable of going against
the beat In tha etote. Tours truly,

SHEEP It was generally predicted laat

rialise, but the break was on hand as
per schedule, and lamb valuea have been

last Friday, but Tueaday and Wednes
day saw breaks and no reaction came
until Thuraday. At the close of Thura-
day'a'trade valuea were 10rJ2oo below laat
Friday. The blKgeat run of tha week

Burlington May Lose
Union Pacific Track
OTallontoNorthport
HASTTNOf. Neh, Jan. .-(8peclal.)-ftumors
of a trafflo rrangement for tha
uaa of Vnlon rarlflo tracks between
O' Fallon and Northport, .sab., rtachr l
Hastings today, carrying significance In
connection with ths development of tha
Burlington's new line In Wyoming.
The construction of the new Burlington
road In Wyoming has been upon an ex
tensive scale, but the Burlington has
made no official announcement how It
will connect the eastern terminus st
Bridgeport, Neb., with Its central system.
A possible solution of tha problem Is
suggested in the rumor of the trafflo
arrangement for tha use of tha Union ra
elflo tracks between Northport, whlct
Is does to .Bridgeport and O' Fallon. Tha
Burlington would have comparative!
little construction work to do to complota
tha connection between Bridgeport an.l
tha Kearney branch touching the main
tin st Hastings.
Local Vnlon rarlflo officials would
make no statement last night In connec
tion with tha rumor from Hastings.

HOW 10 GET YOUR
WATER TURNED ON
Rnlea Are Poated in Water Office
So that Rentera May Bead
Them.
LANDLORDS RAISE BIO HOWL
Water board rules on how to get wster
service when you move Into your home,
are to be posted In the water board of
fice so that customers may resd them
on the wall.
This waa announced by F. D. Wead,
chairman of the Metropolitan Water
board, at ths last Real Efctate exchange
meeting.
Thla action Is the result of an agi
tttlon started a few weeks ago by tha
Omaha Real Estate exchange, when It
waa charged that the water board haa
been too quirk to send appllcanta for
watr to the landlord to ask him to
sign a guarantee of their water rent.
The rulea of the board la that you
must deposit 81 with the board to guar
antee that you mill pay your water
rent regularly, or that you must get
your landlord to algn a guarantee that
you will pay It. Thla guarantee. If th"
landlord algna It, makea him liable for
tha payment of your water rent If you
'fls" tha coop" allhout paving your
bills.
Object to tiaaraates.
Real estate men doing a rental busi
ness have always objected to signing this
guarantee, holding that It la no mora
Inoumbeut on them to guarantee a ton
ant'a water bill then It la to guarantee
hie grocery bill or his meat bill, or hia
coal bill.
Nevertheless a constant stream of ap
plicants for water la moving from the
valr board offlie to the various real
estate offlcra with application blanks
asking that the real ratate rental man
sign tho guarantee.
The realty dealers have become sick
and tired of thla.
"The wstrr board said you must algn
thla before 1 can got water," la the com
mon expression of the people, when
they coma Into the office of the land
lord or tha rental man.
Thsn the rental man la always forced
to explain that tha alternative Is tha
payment by the tenant of a V deposit.
Which will get them water Immediately.
Tho Fastest Way.
The real estate men Insisted that tha
clerks In the water board office were
elmply doing thlnga tha easiest way.
That la when the tenant objected pay
ing the 83 guarantee, they almply handed
him a ailp and asked htm to get hia
rental man or landlord to sign, without
explaining to him that thla amounta to
a guarantee.
When half the members of the Real
Estate exchange had poured out their
vlrol lotlvenesa on F. V. Wead at tha ex
change meeting some weeka ago, Mr.
Wead agreed to take the matter up
with the board and the result Is thst
some of the seta of rules are now poated
In the water office, ao thst all tenants
may read.
