Omaha Futures Mark.
A bearish sentiment was much In evidence
at the opening today and May Wheat de
clined abo4 lo from the closing price of
yoeterday.
The recent downward turn In wheat Was
caused In some degree by the slackening of
the export demand and reselling by foreign
' era, and also by the acute railroad situation,
the foreigners being unwilling to place large
order and be forced to watt on the rail
roads. Export sales yesterday, however,
wore somewhat improved, the local market
disposing of 100,000 bushels of wheat and
' about the same amount f com,
. Sentiment In corn was rather bulllah and
- some traders claim that the export Inquiry
for corn Is stronger than for wheat, but re-
. porta up te date show that a greater ex
port business has been done la wheat
Independently, there was very little news
on the oats situation, and this market la
likely to follow the action of wheat and
corn. i-
Tbe closing prices today en sll cereals
were substantially higher. May wheat clos
ing at $1.72, May corn at $(a and May
oat at 64 c.

Chicago, Jan. 30. Fears that a predicted
cold wave might harm unprotected portions
or me winter crop tenaea to give strength
to the wheat market today. Prices closed
strong, $o to 4e net higher, with May at
$1.7601-78. and July at $1.4001.40.
Cora scored a gain of lc to lo, and oata
of c to 1c Provisions finished unchanged
Wheat at first showed much greater ad
, vance In the new crop future then In the
May option, but In the end the neater month
had the lead. There had been persistent
buying of May on all the dip and It was
finally concluded- by some observers, that
the British commission was giving the
orders for tho purctuues. Such Inferences
led to a flurry on the part or shorts and
had much to do with a aharp upturn that
tooK place at tne last or, tne session,
Throughout the day, mora over, advances
had been stimulated by denials that Great
Britain was preparing to arm merchantmen
forward as well as astern.
Announcement that flour sales at Mln
neapolts had been the largest la weeks
helped to Inspire buying of wheat. On the
ether band, bears made much of the existing
diplomatic uncertainties and of the supposed
scantiness of new export demand, but
seemed to be unable to bring about more
than temporary set back In values. One
reason for the difficulty of forcing any
permanent depression was that yesterday's
xport business was estimated In some
quartern as having amounted to i,eve,f
bushels.

dence in cases of rate making or other
important controversies between the
city and trese corporations.
The measure provides that the cor
porations shall not claim any greater
valuation of tangible property than
shown in the assessment rolls.

points to 39, It! lowest record, wan the
moHt disconcerting feature of the day'a heR
ItattnK market. The eeltlnv wai accom

recoveries.
At midday prlcea agraln evinced an easier
tendency, with United Btatea Steel aa the
center of attraction. Widespread Intercut
wu manifested regarding the amount of
tho eatra dividend for the Hnal quarter oi
last year and the concurrent isHiiance of the
flnanrtal tgatement for that period, neither
of which became known until om time
after the market's cloae.
Meanwhile Steel, on a turnover of 140,000
eh area or about 26 per cent of the day'a
total operations fluctuated between 11. I1
and 111, with a net gain of of a point
at 113. The extra dividend of 1 per
making a total of t per cent In regular
and extra dividends for the last year, was
somewhat under expectations, but earnings
for tha quarter ot almoat SlOMOO.ooo were
in excess of the most extravagant estimates.
Aside from the diveralon created by New
Haven and Steel, the market was .devoid of
special features although low priced raila
wero active, mainly at higher levels, par
ticularly Southern Railway, which gained 2
points.
There were the usual mixed movements in
specialties, Burns Brothers, for example,
scoring; an advance of 4 points, with an
aa vance or points, witft a rarewal or 4
points for American inc preferred. Beth
lehem Steel made an early gain of &
point, only to fall 14. and closed at a net
loss of 8 points. Best prices In stocks were

How the Bell Telephone
System Spends the Money
Received From the Public
The following figures are token from the an
nual report of the American Telephone and
Telegraph Company and Associated Companies,
or so-called Bell Telephone System.
Of each dollar received for the sale of ser
vice by the Bell System, 46 cents are paid in
wages Jo employees, and 33 cents are spent
for repairs and up keep of the equipment, for
taxes, incidental expenses and employees' wel
fare work, and 20 cents are paid to holders of
Bell Telephone securities.
'-' This 20 cents paid in interest and divi
dends is less than 6 per cent return on the
money, since $4 are invested in property for
each $1 in gross revenue received each year.
Fair dividends Ire Enough
In order to get additional money for exten
' sions and improvements in our equipment it is
essential that the public, who are our stock,
holders, have faith In our securities and confi
dence that they will receive a fair return on
their investment.
During the past three years the cost of tele
phone equipment has increased, on the average,
to nearly double the former price. ,
In spite of the increased cost of operation,
few telephone rates have been increased; al
though there are few business enterprises in
which the profit has been as small as in the tele
phone industry.
