lingo On opening rounds prospects were
fur another sharp advance in pneos. ni- i
ihko was reported as strong and 10c
higher, and on the strength of this and a
i'icrI run that was no. very targe shippers
filled their moderate orders at prices that,
whim uneven, were generally a full dime
higher. As was the case yesterday, nearly
all the hogs that went to shippers wera on
the light order.
Packers were out to od things down,
ar.d it was pretty weU along In the morn
ing before sellers were able to get bids from
klllnrs that wera any better than steady,
lti the end most of the packer buyers raised
their hands and filled their droves at prices
that went fully a nickel higher, but they
iHtd the advance under prat out, and there
was a weak uudcrton to ths trade all
through.
One of the big packers never did better
his, early bids, and on the close, with up
ward of twenty-five leads left over, other
buyers had filled their orders, he carried
bis point, late rounds being slow at figures
that wera pot a b.t more than steady with
yesterday. The general market was around
in higher. Bulk old.l $1&.3($1&.70, sev
eral loads reaching the latter price, which
was also the day's top. More than half of
the Monday and Tuesday break has been
mads tp. but values are still right close to
lmj lower thsit last week's close. Common
hogs have been alow sellers all week and
show the meet of the break, belny fully 30c
lower than last Saturday, while the better
grades are ta many cases no mora thau 10c
down. t .. t

Sheep Ther really was not enough: of
any kind on hand to make a market. All
thre loads were, of mixed natives, and
nothing was here on which to base com
parisons. The market was nominally sailed
about steady at the week's decline, Tops
Out of oue bunch of native spring lambs
sold at $18.00, but nearly half of the bunch
was sorted out at $10,00. Other native
Springers sold as high as $17.76.
No yearling lambs ..were offered, either
clipped or in the wool. A few clipped ewes
that came in with sprlngura brought $11.60,
and some rather plain wooled ewea sold at
$13.00. On yesterday's close culls out of
one bunch of California spring Iambs sold
to feeders at $14-86, and today some light,
thin native springers went to feeders at
$13.60, Two cars of California feeders wars
lurwarueu yesierasy.
The break in -prices this wek has been
Just as phenomenal as the advance which
preceded It. Compared with the high time
towards last week's close, medium to good
kinds of sheen and lambs are fully $8.00
lower, while there has been even mors of a
break on the plainer stuff, some of which
Is selling .92.60 lower than at the high point.
The stuirif. has been general, hitting all
grades of stock, and being In force at all
the western markets. Tuts decline is season
able, though It has been a little more s
. vers than usual, owing to the fact that for
a time tbe market got cleat away from
buyer and slaved a runaway. With the re
sult that packers were buying their stuff
it a loss. Eastern dressed mutton traae con
tinuM kIow. and at this week's close clear-
ance of dressed mutton supplies la reported
- as very poor.

NEW YORK STOCKS
Closing of Port and Sinking of
American Vessels Results in
General Falling Off of -Prices,
New Tork. June 1. The msrket exneri
enced a nervous chill In the early at ague of
today's session becsuse of . the circulation of
alarming rumors growing out of the tempo
rary closing of the port of New York and
the sinking of AmcrlcAti sailing ships.
United Htates Steel fdl to 12$. from Its
previous high of ISPs- the rebound
of the Inst hour, when virtually all losses
were restored, steel closed at J30H, a net
gain of points, allowing for Its extra
dividend of 44 points.
A few slocks were conspicuous for their
consistent strength. American Smelting
msde an extreme advance of 6 points to
111, American Bugar added 4H to Its sub
stantial rise of recent dsjs and Industrial
Alcohol stain featured the high priced
specialties at a gross gain of 4 points,
nearly alt of which wus surrendered on
profit tsklng.
Of total transactions amounting to 1,
260,000 shares, fully 60 per cent represented
the enlarged operations In steels, coppers,
shippings snd alcohol. Balls contributed
relatively little.
Uold exports In Impressive volume were
resumed, over $3,000,000 going to the Pacific
const In connection with the movement to
Japan and $800,000 being withdrawn for
shipment to Spain.
A feature oi me irregular oona marwei
was the Increased Inquiry for Anglo -French
Is, which gained a material fraction ana
added substantially to the larger business In
that division., Total sales pur value, $3,-
170,000.

Thursday.
Omaha, June 1, 1917.
The general tone of the cash grain mar
ket was stronger today .and the demand for
the different cereals was much Improved.
Wheat sold generally at about the same
price as It did yesterday, although a few
esmphs of No 3 hard sold about 2o under
yesterday's highest quotation oil this gude,
but quality considered, the market was
the same. The trade in all markets wss
rather alow during the early part of the
nesslon, nut when seller, slatted to let
so the buyers nicked un most jf the offer
ings and the tobies wore pretty well cleaned
up before the close.
: Tho corn market led the Hat Jn the ad
vance and ruled from i'.-i.lo above the
market of the previous day.
Almost sll of No. 3 and No. 3 grade sam
pies sold around ll.5t.ty, but a few of the
later sales of white corn were made
a 4e premium over the yellow and mixed
varieties. 1
The oats market was comparatively
strung, at a lo advance, and the cash In
quiry ror au grades or tnis article was
uretty active.
There was no samples or rye placed on
the tables end this cereal was quoted noml
nally steady, while only one sale of barley
was listed and this sample sold at a small
decline,

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Evidence af Export Demand Has Bullish
Tendency and Market Closes Higher.
Chicago, June 1. Evidence of export de
mand at liberal premiums had a bullish
influence on the wheat market today. Prioea
closed unsettled, So to 4c net higher, with
July at $1.9 and September at $1.83. Corn
gained 8c to 7o, oats, 01o to lc,
and provisions, 7o to 40c,
Strength in the wheat market received a
decided temporary check soon after the
opening. News that the port of Now Tork
had bean closed to all outgoing ships led
to considerable selling and for a while
caused a material setback In values. Later,
however, when word came that the ban
on vessel departures at New Tork was
lifted a sharp rally took place and atten
tion turned largely- to reports that for
signers hail made purchase at Kansas City
on a basis of 75 cents over the Chicago July
delivery. The fact developed also that North
American exports for the week amounted to
6.180,000 bushels, against 4,545,000 bushels
the previous week.
It was more difficult today to buy
wheat than heretofore ho been ths case
at any time since the rules which have
restricted trading went Into effeot. A bear

Wet, cold weathers did a good deal to
make corn vt-lues soar. Growth conditions
were said to require instead both warmth
and sunshine. Besides, the seaboard " call
showed improvement, ths country as a rule
had apparently ceased selling and a fall
ing off In iccelpts was expected.
Oats had but little independence. Offer
ings were scarce and export Inquiry fair.
Higher quotations on corn and hogs lifted
provisions. Houses with foreign connec
tions were at times free sellers of lard, but
made no lasting impression,
