GRAIN ANDPRODUCE
General Receipts Becoming
Larger, But CornJontinues
Light; New Corn is
Readily Taken.
Omaha, November 19, 1917.
Arrivals of grain today were fairly liberal,
especially wheat and oats, receipts of these
cereals being 118 and seventy-three cars
respectively, while a total of 247 cars of
ail grain were reported on hand. Receipts
of corn continue light with only thlrtv-six
cars, while fourteen cars of rye and six
cars of barley were also reported.
Cash corn was a little easier today. Prac
tically all of tho camles of corn were of the
new, with the exception of six or elaht cars
of old, but up to this time none of these
were sold, sellers asking a good price for
these scarce samples. New corn sold aulte
readily today and the local demand was
rather urgent, especially from ludustrles
who were good buyers. Many of the
samples were apparently good sound corn
and graded No. 6 and 6, depending on the
amount of moisture content.
Several cars graded sample, only one be
ing given a samplo grailo on account of
being hot, while tbo bulk were of a 'fairly
good quality, but were put into the sample
class owing to t.:e excessive amount of
moisture which they .ontalned. These sales
ranged in price from forty cents for a car
of sample mixed 10 $1.65, this figure being
paid for the No. 6 yellow and mixed.
Oats were In good demand, and this
article was quoted unchanged to a half
cent off. the bulk going at Saturday's fig
ures. The eTport L.qulry was raiher light,
but local buyers took the greater part of
the offerings. No. 1 white sold at 66 Sc.
and the standard grade at 65c and 66c.
rhe commercial grade of 1 white went at
65Se and 65 c while the sample white
brought 65o.
Rye was alao In good demand and sold
at figures a cent to a cent and a half
lower. No. 1 rye sold at $1.73 and the
No. 2 at $1.72 14 and $1.73. Barley was quot
ed unchanged to a cent up, the No. 3 sell-1
ing at $1.21 and the No. 1 feed at $1.17 and
11.18. Both of these articles sold well, the
local Inquiry absorbing everything offered.
Clearances were: Wheat and flour, equal
to 422,000 bushels; oats, 494,000 bushels.
Primary wheat receipts were J. 481,000
bushels and shipments 408,000 bushels,
against receipts of 2,475,000 bushels and
shipments of 1,130,000 bushels last year.
Primary corn receipts were 803,000 bush
t s and shipments 232,000 bushels, against
receipts of 1,206,000 bushels and shipments
of 477,000 bushels last year.
Primary oats receipts were 1,640,000 bush
els and shipments 1,219.000 bushels, against

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Enlargement of Supplies and Bettor Quality
Has Hearten .Effect on Loan.
Chicago. Nov. 19. Enlargement of sup-
plies, together with improvement in the
ualtty of arrivals, had a bearish effect to
ay on the corn market. Prices, although
steady at the close, were 4c to o net
ower, with January $1.168l.l(tt, and
May $1.15',; 115. Oats finished un
hanged to ',c higher and provisions up
Me to 10c.
Receipts of corn here showed a liberal
total for the first time in a long while,
tho aggregate being 417 car loads of which
270 were new corn. Besides the United
States visible supply began to display an
Increase, having gained in the last week
437,000 bushels. Betterment in condition of
pot offerings hero was of a notable char
acter, especially as to moisture content. An
other decided handicap to the bulls lay in a
special government report which seemed
to imply that the latest federal crop esti
mate. 2.191.000.000 did not include tho worst
damaged corn and therefore meant a larger
percentage of good corn than traders gen
rally had figured upon.
Some renewal of seaboard demand
strengthened tho oats market in the last
hour. Previously, corn weakness had acted
as a drag.
Provisions prices were swayed by cnanges
In the value of hogs. Most of the buying
came from shorts.

"I have no other recourse, since th

men, thereby setting a bad example
to my children," stated Patrick Foley,
shortly after the decree of divorce
was rendered against him several
weeks ago. Foley made good his
threat Saturday night when he at
tempted to kill his wife and himself
committed suicide. Mrs. Foley is
said to have a fighting chance for re

JAPAN SAYS U. S.
WOULD PAY TOO
LITTLE FOR SHIPS
Announces Break in Steel Ne
gotiations Long Pending, But
Washington Thinks Agree
ment Will Be Reached.
(By Associated Press.)
Tokio. Saturday, Nov. 19. In t
lengthy statement today the depart
ment of communications announces
that the negotiations with the United
States by which Japan was seeking
to have the American embargo on
steel raised to a certain extent in
Japan's favor, have been broken off,
to Japan's regret, because of the dif
fering circumstances in which the
two countries are placed.
America's demand for Japanese
shipping in return for the concession
would virtually destroy Japan's Eu
ropean trade, the statement declares,
while the equivalent offered was an
inadequate one. Japan's assistance to
its allies, the statement points out,
cannot reach tin extent of infringing ,
upon the necessities to its national
existence,
Look for Agreement.
Washington. Nov. 18. Confidence
that negotiations looking to the ex
changee of American steel for Japan
ese tonnage will be concluded success
fully was expressed by officials herf
tonight, despite Japan s apparent re
fusal to sell its ships at the price
offered.
The Japanese asked for 300,000 ton:
of steel, agreeing to charter to the
United States an unnamed number oi
merchant ships. In a counter pro
posal the United State agreed to re
lease 100,000 tons of steel and offered
to purchase outright whatever amount
of ship tonnage the Japanese wer
willing to spare. 1
Too Great Disparity.
It offered to pay about $175 a tor
for the ships, the valuation the ship
ping board has placed on American
tonnage, and agreed that Japan should
be charged no more for its steel than
the American government is paying.
Since shins are selling in the open
market as high as $300 a ton, the fact
that Japan considers the price offered
for its ships too low caused little sur
prise here. Officials who have fol
lowed the negotiations said tonight
there was little doubt that a satisfac
tory price would be agreed on.
Omaha on Honor Roll
Of National Bank Cities,
Washington. Nov. 19. The growing
security of national banks is shown
by a report issued tonight by Comp
ti oiler of the Currency Williams,
based on an analysis of bank failures
in the United Mates in the Jb years
since 1881. Up to 1914 depositors'
losses from bank failures amounted to
28 cents per $1,000 of all banks' de
posits. - Within the last three years,
however, losses have been only ixA
cents per $1,000 of deposits and in
the year ending last June 30 they
were only 2 9-10 cents. Deposits last
year totaled $13,769,000,000 and losses
were $369,000.
"This great reduction in losses,"
says Mr. Williams, "is- largely the re
sult of the improved system of na
tional bank examination."
The honor roll of 24 reserve cities
in which then have been no national
bank failures since 1881 was given by
the comptroller as follows:
Albany, Washington, Richmond.
Charleston, Atlanta, Savannah, Bir
mingham, Galveston. Houston, Waco,
Chattanooga, Cleveland, Milwaukee,
St Paul, Cedar Rapids, Des Moines,
SU Joseph, Omaha, Muskogee, Okla
homa City, Tulsa, Los Angeles, Sal
Lake City and Ogden.
Growing Shortage of Material
Alarms Farm Implement Men
Sioux Falls. S. D.. Nov. 19. fSoe
cial) The growing shortage of ma
terial for the manufacture ot tarm
ing machinery because of the great
war demand for those materials is
carrying a threat to the agricultural
development of South Dakota which
is causing alarm among veteran im
plement and vehicle men.
In the view of expert implement
and vehicle men the shortage is be
coming more acute instead of im
proving and mav seriously affect the
production of foodstuffs next year,
when so much will depend upon the
volume which the United States can
produce for itself and its allies in
the great war.
It has been customary for Imple
ment and vehicle retail dealers to
wait until December before the next
season. Present conditions, how
ever, are so serious that dealers gen
erally are being urged to place their
orders at once on the ground that
even if orders are placed now for
goods for the 1918 trade the dealers
may not be able to fill their require
ments. Al StraJer Is Held Up and
Robbed While on Way Home
Al Strader, 18 years of age, lives at
1925 Emmet street. Ke had been call
ing at a neighbor's house and while
on his way home, at Twentieth and
Emmet streets, at 7:30 o'clock last
night was held up and robbed of 25
cents by a colored man.
As Strader approached the lwen-
tieth street crossing a colored man
called him to stop, and, walking rapid
ly toward him, commanded him to
lold un his hands. Mraaer s pockets
were searched and when the high
wayman failed to find more than 25
cents, he struck him in the face with
some blunt instrument, knocking him
down.
