Corn Prices Advance aa Supplies Fall Off Owing to Embargo on Shipments. Chicago, Sept. 2(. Falling off In the amount of fresh supplies arriving brought about advances today in the corn market. Prices closed strong, lH134o net higher, with October, (1.481.49 and November, (1.46H1.46tt. Oata finished ttOKo up and provisions varied from lOo decline to a rise of 66c. Pronounced sentiment favoring the bulls showed Itself In corn as soon as trading began. The reduced movement of the crop was plainly evident and there seemed to be no Immediate prospect that the ban would be lifted which had stopped the issuance of permits for rural shipments. On the contrary, some dealera who had grain already loaded were said to be un able to get permits. Besides, wet weather over the west and northwest appeared to be retarding somewhat the curing of the crop. A temporary reaction which took place around midday was due more or less to government advices that damage by frost this season had been slight and that cutting was now qulta general. Government purchasing, together with inquiry from exporters, gave firmness to oats. Requests that commission houses report to the exchange directors any open trades In lard made that commodity weak. Pork and ribs sympathized with the strength of grain. Chicago, Sept. 25. Butter Market low er;; creamery, tl(8Vie. .

New York, Sept. 25. Resumption of pro fessional selling on a broader scale In the stock market today checked the upward tendency which had been In evidence dur ing the past week. Conviction Is still strong In some quarters that, aside from any special Influences which may Inject themselves as levers to raise prices, money restriction Is still the paramount factor. Disposition has been shown, also, toward retrenchment In purchasing with a view to Investing in the fourth Liberty loan. After the somewhat confused opening. there were sharp declines when gener ous offerings In many stocks, notably United States Steel, were not absorbed ex cept at marked concessions. The general weakness in steels was attributed to pros pect of smaller earnings as a result of the decision to operate under an eight-hour day, this plan foreshadowing largely In creased prices for labor. Tobaocos, distillery shares, oils, motors and coppers suffered depressions In sym pathy. Marine preferred's gain, amounting to 3 points for the day, developed after published reports that an announcement would soon be made that the British ton nage would be sold under a plan assuring higher valuation for both classes of Its stock. An Interesting feature of the operations was acute weaknesa In Anglo-French 5s, which declined of a point, in contrast with the establishment of high prices for the year in the various municipal Issues. Liberty bonds were affected early after announcement of the terms of the new Issue, but strengthened later. The general bond list was variable. Total sales, par value, $9,750,000. Closing Sales.

La Sail St SKINNER PACKING GQMPANY fell EGGS TAOI MAI 1116-1118 -Doudlas Sf: Tel-Douglas IS2I AK-SAR-BEN MAT EVENT WILL BE LAST IN OMAHA Pesek to Give Exhibition at Fort Omaha for Soldiers Thursday Night; Meets Ray and Ecklund. Wrestling fans will see the fare well exhibition of that sport for the duration of the war between high class heavyweights when John Pesek, the Shelton grappler, and Charlie Peters, the Papillion car penter, mix at the auditorium Friday night. Both men are in the prime of condition, with a grudge to set tle, and fast and furious wrestling is assured. The war game has proved too fascinating to remain away from, and both men will enlist in war work after their battle here. Pesek leaves to join the army and his future bat tles will be staged by the boys in khaki. Peters leaves October 15 for the Pacific coast where he will en ter a shipyard. He is a skilled me chanic and feels that he can best serve his country and family in that way. Thursday night Pesek will wrestle an exhibition match for the benefit of the soldiers at Fort Omaha. He will take on two fast and experi enced light-heavy weights and the soldier boys are assured a good ex hibition. Ticket Sales Brisk. Tom Ray of Omaha has volun teered his services and will face the mighty John for one fall. Tom is another of the topnotch wrestlers who will leave for military service. He will leave Omaha October 1. For the second fall Clarence 'Eck lund, light heavyweight champion of the world, will appear. Clarence is now farming at Buffalo, Wyo., but answered a call to visit the Fri day night match and appear in the exhibition. Ticket sales for the Pesek-Peters match continue brisk and an over flow attendance is expected. The fact that after this match the army and navy will have all of the first class wrestlers and that Omaha will undoubtedly not see another mat event until after the war has acted as a spur to many of the stragglers who have now made reservations. Work Hard for Match. The outcome of the Fourth of July match still leaves a dissatisfied feeling with both men and they are determined to settle the superiority before the fortunes of war may pre vent them from meeting again. Pesek is still confident of his ability to throw Peters and has been train ing industriously in order to ac complish the feat in such short order that there will be no question of the best man. Peters is working just as hard to redeem himself for his failure to throw the Shelton man at their last encounter. Peters says his prepara tions had all been for an out-of-door match and he was not prepared for the match when postponed to the auditorium. Had the match con tinued at the ball park he is posi tive that he would have emerged the victor. The question will be decided by the two men Friday night and the probable winner is hard to choose. Tickets will be on sale at the audi torium, hotels and drug stores. The first three rows of the balcony and the first three rows of ringside seats will sell for $2. The balance of the tickets will be sold for $1. Toledo Takes Over Boxing Game as Wartime Measure Toledo, 0., Sept. 25.
