Cattle As usual on Saturday the run of
cattle was very light, about 850 head, and
for the most part what little trading was
done brought prices not materially uir
ferent from Friday. Receipts for the six
days have been a little over 32,000 head, or
aome 7,000 short of last week, but fully
4,000 more than for the corresponding week
a year ago. Weather conditions ana trans
portation difficulties havo Interfered with
the market all week, but In a general way
desirable strong weight beeves show an ad
vance of 1526c for tha week, and right
good heavy cattle sold up to $12.80 yes
terday. On the plain short fed and warmed
up steers It has been a very uneven and
unsatisfactory trade from start to nnisn,
and closing prices are not materially dif
ferent from a week ago, The same holds
true as to cows and heifers. - In stockers
and feeders there was soma activity during
tha early part of the week, but cold, snow
and poor railroad facilities hava shut off
tho demand recently and closing prices are
around 2605OO lower than a week ago, while
In the case of common light weight stuff
tha declines have even been greater.

Hogs There was a liberal run ot hogs
hero for a week end, and trade for the most
part was confined to thar packers, shippers
only buying a limited number on the early
rounds. Both packers and shippers bought
their hogs at prices that for the most part
wera steady, although a few sales were
mads that looked possibly 6c higher. The
trade waa fairly active and the majority
of tha hogs that were In were disposed ot
before 11 o'clock. A top of $16.30 waa paid,
thla being steady with yesterday's best
price, while the bulk of the hogs moved at
$15.90018.15. Trade for the week Is around
35o lower.

if anything. Fat awes have suffered some
decline, the bulk of tho stuff being about
25o off. Trade has been good on what

Omaha, January 19, 191$.
Arrivals of grain In the market con
tinue to be very liberal. Receipts today
were 200 cars, with four ot wheat, 154 of
corn, 34 of oats, three of rye and five
of barley. It la estimated that fully 4.600,
000 bushels of corn and 600,000 of oata are
In transit as a result of the recent storms.
a good part of which is waiting to be
moved into this market, and, with an In
crease of motive power, a continued good
run la highly probable
Cash corn was decidedly weaker today,
suffering a severe decline of from 3c to
6c, the, bulk selling down 6c a bushel. The
local and shipping demand was quite ac
tive and resulted in a cleanup of practi
cally everything, a few cars, however, be
ing held for a better price. No. t white
sold at $1.65 and the No. 4 white at $1.60
01.53, while the No. I grade sold at $1.45

$1.3501.40.
A revival of export bids for oats were
in evidence in the east, offering a pre
mium of 10 Uc over May on track at the
aeiiboard, and this was a strengthening
factor in the cash oats market, the spot
being quuted unchanged to a quarter of a
cent higher. No. 2 and No. 3 white and
standard grade oata sold at one price, 10c
Rye and barley were firm and In good
demand. No. 3 rye aold at 11.87 and No.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Clearing of Railroad Blockade Tends to
Weaken Corn Market.
Chicago, Jan. 19. Clearing up of the
railroad blockade tended today to weaken
the corn market Prices closed heavy,
January $1.27 and May $1.24, with
tho finish as a whole unchanged to ',4c
down, compared with 24 hours before.
Oats declined c to o net In provl
slons, ths outcome varied from a setback
of 10c to 35c advance.
Faced by prospects of liberal receipts
here Monday and Tuesday ths corn market
showed a downward slant almost uni
formly throughout tha session. Notwlth
standing that severe winter temperatures
still curbed the activities of the railroads,
Indications of substantial progress In the
removal ot traffic congestion were too plain
to ba Ignore. Selling, however, was at no
time agressive, although bearish sentiment
was somewhat augmented by peace talk,
especially In tha last hour, during week
end adjustment of trades.
Oats sagged with corn. Hope ot sales
to tho seaboard led to a temporary bulge.
which was more than counteracted when
no business developed.
Heavier receipts of hogs weakened pro
visions, but sharp reduction ot tho weekly
total of hog packing led afterward to ral
lies. The late upturns were partly due
to the fact that shipments for the week
were shown to have been greatly curtailed
by trafflo difficulties.

NEW YORK STOCKS
Trading Exceedingly Light and
Narrow; Two Active Issues
Make Up One-third
of Turn-Over.
New York, Jan. It. Trading In stocks to
day was exceedingly light and narrow, oven
tor a week-end session. Two active issues-
Marine preferred and United States Steel
made up almost one-third ot tha total turn
over.
Marine was heavy throughout at an ex
treme reaction ot two points without recov
ery, while Steel made up its initial frac
tional decline on what seemed to be sub
stantial buying.
Coppers and oils were the strongest fea
tures, gaining one to three points on reports
of an early and satisfactory price adjust
ment by the war board. Specialties werTs
featured by Wilson Packing at a gross gain

CITY PLANNERS
OUTLINE THEIR
HIGHWAY PLANS
One of Recommendations in
Annual Report Is a Continuous
Boulevard System and
Scenic Drive.
One of the recommendations urged
by the City Planning commission, in
its first report, is a continuous
boulevard system. To accomplish
that desideratum the commission sub
mitted the following outline to the
city council:
"It may be said that the dignity
and beauty of a city depend, to a
large extent, on its boulevards and
scenic drves. Yet " n not be
expected that Omaha can afford a
comprehensive boulevard system un
less it pursues a steady and continu
ous policy in developing and ac
quiring them.
"Omaha with a poulation of 225,
000 now has a park area of approxi
mately 990 acres, and a boulevard
system 35 miles long. The boule
vards, however, are lacking in con
tinuity in various places, and in par
ticular afford no connection between
Hanscom park and Elmwood park."
The commission recommends a
boulevard link between Hanscom
and Elmwood parks by extending
Woolworth avenue through the
County Poor farm and thence in a
southwesterly direction to the inter
section of Forty-fifth and Center
streets. From that point it is sug
gested that Center street constitute
a boulevard to a point where it
crosses the Missouri Pacific tracks.
Thence the boulevard would follow
Saddle Creek in a southwesterly di
rection to the junction of the Mis
souri Pacific railroad and following
the Little Papillion to its intersec
tion with the Happy Holloy creek,
and thence northeasterly to Elmwood
park.
Other boulevard recommendations
follow: A district boulevard connec
tion between Bemis park and the be
ginning of John A. Creighton boule
vard at Hamilton street by way of
Thirty-eighth street. Florence boule
vard, as its termination at Chicago
street, to be continued south on
Nineteenth street to Jackson street
at such time as the Dodge street hill
shall have been cut; then east on
Jackson street to its connection with
Bellevue boulevard, thus connecting
two separate boulevards and avoiding
the confusion in pleasure traveling
through the central part of the city.
The intersection of Bellevue boule
vard with Bancroft street at Eleventh
street should be made safe by ac
quiring more property.
"The improvements and new con
struction mentioned will, together
with the present boulevards, give the
city a complete inside boulevard sys
tem," the report states.
. In addition to the completion of an
inside boulevard, the commission rec
ommends an outer boulevard system
in these words: "In addition to these
improvements, considerable time has
been spent by the commission in the
study of an extension of Florence
boulevard north, and a boulevard ex
tending from Dorcas street and Tenth
street south to Childs' Point. In
themselves, these are independent
boulevards, yet they are a part of a
future comprehensive outside boule
vard system."
Commenting on the proposed Thir
teenth street boulevard, the report
reads:
"One of the most interesting scenic
views of Omaha is to be found on the
slopes on the west side of the Mis
souri river, extending from Dorcas
street south to Cihlds' Point. At al
most any point along the stetch of
four miles one views fertile farm
lands; a wide, interesting river, in
which the sky", the hills, the distance
are reflected, and around it all is the
sty-line of distant forest-clad hill
sides. Nature has not made these
slopes suitable for farming, but has
made them beautiful, and most of
them are still covered with forest.
Since this land has little commercial
value it could be -acquired at slight
cost, and should be preserved in a
state of nature. Such a preservation
would have scientific value, both in
respect to forestry and to wild .life.
But, above all, it would have priceless
value for those who live in or visit
Omaha. Within half an hour they
could pass from the bustle of the city
to the seclusion of the forest. The
route mentioned may be divided into
four distinct parts, as follows: Dorcas
street to Riverview park; Riverview
park to J street; J street to Mandan
park; Mandan park to Child's Point.
