was a good demand from both packers
and shipping buyers, and with favorable
reports from outside points, the market was
generally steady on anything at all useful
either In the way ot beet steers or butoher
stock. Some of the leas desirable offerings
had to go at shaded figures, but the gen
eral trade for killing stuff was not ma
terially different from the close of last
week. Supplies ot stock cattle snd feed
ing steers were not very extensive, and there
was a good demand for them from both
yard traders and country buyers, so that
prices were firmly held and the movement
reasonably active from start to finish.

Sunday amounting to 636 cars. Receipts
of wheat were 13 cars, while those of oats
were 60 cars. Ry and barley arrivals were
1 and 8 cars, respectively.
Present weather conditions are very fa
vorable for the movement of the soft corn
left In the country and shippers are awake
to every opportunity offered to move their
holdings. With a continuation of such
weather a large movement is looked for and
doubtlessly will result In lower cash values.
Trade In the local cash market was very
light during the fore part of the session, but
later on assured a more active course with
cash premlous generally $c to 10c lower, the
6 and 6 grades of the yellow and mixed go
ing at the extreme decline. The better

It went to shippers tor export account. All
sales ot oats reported so far were made at
89o and Included sales of ths standard and
No. I and No. 4 white grades.
Rye was strong, the sample grade soiling
at $3 15 while barley was c to 10c higher.

and sellers had no trouble In finding a ready
tsker. No. 1 barley sold st tt.00 and No. 4
barley at $3 00 and ff.05. No. 1 feed
brought $1.96 and $1.99 and the rejected

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Receipts Tull Down Values) Wenthar Condi
tions Act as Ntlmnlant.
Chicago. Feb. 26. Notwithstanding the
big receipts pulled down grain values todsy,
the effect was subsequently more than over
come by adverse weather conditions and by
the lifting of embargoes on various railway
lines from here to the Atlantic seaboard.
Corn closed firm, tl.27V. March, and
fl.25Ti, May, the ssme as Saturdny's finish,
to Ho higher. Oats gained HO He. In pro
visions there was a setback ranging from
13Hc to fl.
Receipts of grsln were the heaviest yet
this season, and in corn arrivals at primary
centers were mora than double last year's
figures. A further bearish factor was Pres
ident Wilson's proclamation disapproving a
higher guaranteed price on wheat. About the
middle of the session, however, sentiment
changed and thereafter the market tended
upward. Storms which might retard the
crop movement were reported In Iowa and
other Important states. Opening of new
freight outlets to the east counted likewise
as a strengthener of values.
Oats paralleled the action of corn. There
was much short covering as s result of a
ruling at Minneapolis that settlement of de
faults would be based somewhat on ths
value of cash oats In all markets.

Crrnival Men Find Fears
Ground! ::s, Weaver Reports
Secretary J. D. Weaver of Ak-Sar-Ben
returned Sunday night from Chi
cago, where he spent the week at a
convention of carnival secretaries and
managers.
"A splendid spirit was manifested
by all show men," Weaver declared.
"They are sure they will be able to go .
ahead as usual in the fall. Last fall
they were down at the mouth for
fear the railroads would not be al
lowed to haul their equipment when
the nation needed the railways for
transportation of food, coal and war
supplies. Now the say they have
definite assurance from the railway
committee that they will be carried
as usual,
"So we are looking forward to a
big carnival during our fall festival
in Omaha. I have not yet contracted
with any of the shows, but I have
some splendid prospects in mind."
