Cattle Receipts were very much lighter
Vday, only 127 cars being reported, but for
the week receipts amount to 28,640 head.
With fewer oattle In eight, there wee a
Utile more Activity on the better grades,
which sold more freely than yesterday at
fully steady prlcea. Ught and oommon
Steers as well as yearlings ware very slow
and hard to move, everybody being filled up
on that kind and no one wanting additional
supplies.
Cows and heifers were about steady, and
the same was true of atockers and feeders.

looked aa much aa 10c lower, while ethera
sold stronger then last rounds yesterday.

- Hogs The close yastsrday was about as
mean as anything could be Imagined. What
Hogs packers did buy wsre as much aa 110
is lower than the day before, while ae many
as thlrty.flve loads, some of which had
never had a bid., had to be earned over,
A good many of the late sales landed as
low as 111.00. and there was a sprinkling
of underweights on down to 114.71, bulk
of the day's business being dons at tli.00
ejll.ie.
While the bulk of the boss showsd no
very great change today the tono waa gen
erally eaeler. The fact la that the mar
kets the first half of the weak, and par
ticularly yeetorday, wero ao uneven that
they furnlahed a poor basis for making com
parisons this morning. Quits a few hogs
sold on shipping account today that for want
of better deacrlptlon were called generally
steady. They were hardly as high as yes
terday's' earlier market, but wire In most
cases AOBSIderably better than the low time
on the dose. - '
The big carry aver added to fair freah
supplies gavo packers a liberal showing
from which to make their selections, and
dhey offered lie lower prtoos sarly. Later
they raised' their banda and when hoge
atarted selling, the better kinds, particularly
heavies, were steady, while mixed and light
etuff looked weak to lower than yester
day's general trade, or very similar to Wed
nesday's later rounds. Vp to the extreme
eloas prices held their own, and some of
the later sales were .considered stronger
. than early. The clearances wss the beat
that has been made thla week, though up
to Stldday a tew leada of extremely light
. stuff were unsold.

' Mieep Arrlvala of aheep' and lambs wsrs
fair, the run of twenty-nine cars or about
7,001 head ahowlng a 40 per cent Inereeee
over yeaterday'a receipts. So far this week
supplies havs been 11,117 head, aa sgalnat
13. ml last week, 34.171 two weeks ago, and
31.011 a year ago.
Owing principally to the fact that quite
a few of the offerings wers late In arriving,
not a great deal waa done until efter mid
forenoon, but when everything was finally
yarded the market became fairly active at
prices that were aa a general thing fully
eteady, and In the caae of a few of the
beat Uexlrans looked. If anything, a little
higher. The moat of the medium weight
Mexicans sold around 111.00, with a few
on up to 111.10, end a couple of cars of
llshtrr ones reached 111.71. beating the for
mer record for the market a nickel. Severel
i-are of medium weight westerns sold around
tll.li, and some that were muddy were
bought at tll.li, Extremely heavy stuff
landed at tli.00. The top on westerns waa
tli.lo. shorn lambs, not ths best by any
means, sold at 113.11.
For what old aheep were hers It waa
about a steedy trade. Three care of Wyom
ing ewes, males of those that brought tll.li
yeatorday, made up ths bulk of the run, and
they sold steady. A ahort deck of handy
ted ewes sold up to 111.10. No lambs tare
bought for shearing purposea.

while tho market opened a trifle easier,

with trade, and aa tho demand Was for
ah excess of the aupply, buying waa limited.
Tne trade in today's market was. aa a re
sult, very quiet and waa confined mainly to
we j my opiiona or wneai ana corn.
Wheat closed with a net rain of 11a an
the May and tha July article ruled about to

Dry Good! Market,
New York, April 19 Large government
orders for cotton goods wars received to
day. Clotha and yarns were steady. Buy
ers are arriving to attend a large carpet
auction next week. Woolen goodi were
steady, government buying growing nclWo.
The cotton market closed easy at a net
decline of 30 to 16 point.
New York. April 19. Toncerted selling
of special stocks, notably shippings, motors,
tobaccos and soma ef the low grade rails,
due to more or leas epeclfte cautiee, ar-
countm in largo measure tnr tne conriifr
Ing and erratic course of today's dull
market.
New Haven's extreme decline of 4 points
to 39 waa associated with the company's
plan to Issue a large block or prerern-a
stork to meet current obligations. The
break in automobile Issues, which extended
to 4 points in Oeneral Motors, probably
had Its baals In technical conditions and
the further liquidation of shippings at ex
treme recessions of to 4 points, was
again attributed to a well defined belief
that tho profits of thuse companies are to
undergo severe shrinkage under government
supervision or control.
A gross decline of 37 poltita In Liggett
tt Myers tobacco on a single sale at 226
and a 7-polnt loss in American Tobacco
at 147 were cited as additional Instances
of Investment liquidation at current mar
ket values,
Steel and Iron shares held their ground
at gains of 1 to almost 3 points until the
final hour, when tho entire list ebbed away,
oils and metals alao forfeiting advances of
1 to 4 points. The setback alao Included
Ohio Oas, which made an early rise of 3
points to the record price of 143.
Union Pacific, Reading, minor coaler, and
Pittsburgh and West Vlrglhla -mmon and
preferred. In which forenoon advances
rangpd from 1 point to 4 points, crumbled
In the more active offerings of the laat
half hour, tha market closing with a heavy
tone. Total sales, 610.000 shares.
Dealings In bonds were more diversified
and mixed a to tone, local tractions and
some rails showing heavy to weak tenden
cies, with irregularity In Internationals.
Total sales, par value, $3,620,000,
united State coupon is declined per
cent and the registered 4 and Panamas
1 per cent on call.

Chicago, April II. After a wild advance
today of about 10 cents all around to new
top record prlcea, the wheat market closed
flurried, 7q0Sc net higher, with May at
iiHiiiii.iiii.m.Hi.iim
WANTED
Fifty able-bodied men for motor

The LINCOLN TRACTION CO.
- Ttrminal Bldg. Lincoln, Neb.

Urgent demand rom exporters and millers
was largely responsible, together with the
fact that scarcity of Immediate supplies
had hoisted No. 2 red wheat at St. Louts
to within 2c of $3 a bush!. Corn finished
294c up, oats e off to lc advance-
and provision unchanged to 40c
higher.
To a great degree hope vanished that
important quick relief was to be had
through large shipments of what from
CanaHa. One of the difficulties of getting
supplies from Canada was said to be a rail
way embargo agahitt loading for thr
United States any cars except those owned
on this side of the border. Bullish senti
ment waa sharply stimulated a I no by a
Washington report that the shortage tn the
domestic winter crop was fully as exten
sive aa preliminary estimates had Indicated.
Entente government Interests were said
to have been big buyers of the September
delivery of wheat, while at the ssme time
persistently selling July. Cash houses were
the chief purchasers of May and there were
signs that a majority of May longs would
Innlst on deliveries of actual wheat.
New high records were scored In cor
chiefly aa a result of wheat strength. Gains
In some esses exceeded 6 cents. Oats
sympathised with the upturns In othr
cereals, but holders seized tho en a nee to
realise profits. Besides, crop reports were
very favorable, and new acreage was said
to be decidedly enlarged.
Provision mounted with grain. Compara
tive weakness in ths hog market was Ig
nored. Cash Prices Wheat: No. 2 red, nominal;

Benj. Briscoe
With Fourteen
European Engineers
Turned Out the Half
Million Dollar Motor.
In designing Briscoe's "Half Million" Dollar
motor, power and economy of fuel became
' features. This led to the long-stroke motor.
This motor has a long stroke, 5 1-8 inches. It
is capable of all the speed you will ever re
quire. Its power is 40 per cent greater than it
was last year, and, by actual test, it will make
more miles on a gallon of gasoline than any
machine offered the public today, re
gardless of price. This motor develops in r ,
excess of 30 horsepower, and is one of the
prettiest automobiles ever built. It picks up
quickly, responds instantly to the slightest
touch, and its simplicity in operation is mar
velous. It is exceptionally easy for a lady to
drive. '
