NAMES TRAFFIC
COMMITTEE FOR
CENTRAL WEST
Nebraska and Wyoming Are
Taken from Kansas City
'-. District to Facilitate
Hearing of Claims.
Railroad officials have advices
from Washington that the railroad
administration has granted the re
quest made by Omaha business men
and authorized the organization of
a traffic committee that will have
jurisdiction over Nebraska and
Wyoming to the extent of hearing
and passing upon claims presented
by shippers.
Heretofore Nebraska and Wy
oming have been tied to the Kan
sas City district and all claims from
the two states have had to go there
for adjudication. The office of tVe
new jurisdiction will be located in
Omaha and will give employment
t a considerable number of people.
As members of the Nebraska-Wyoming
committee, the adminLtra
ticn has named C. E. Childe of the
viiniuui j i 1 1 1 1 i i v.. . j. iL.il vTAVfijL
morency of the Burlington and.C. J.
Lane of the Union Pacific. Mr.
Childe vill represent the shippers
and Messrs. Moirmorency and Lane,
the railroads.
It is believed that the x appoint
ment and organization of the local
committee will' be of great benefit
to the shippers of Nebraska and
Wyoming as it will simplify and
faoiliate the relations between the
railroads and the business men of
the two states.

Fiftieth Anniversary

niversary, or "golden jubilee," of
the Ancient Order of United Work
men fraternal order will be held at

Cattle With a very moderate run of
cattle, 5,300 head, the market showed a
little more life In practically every branch.
Demand for both corn feds and grasa
beeves waa reasonably broad and prices
around 16 25c higher than the first of
the week. On the other hand medium and
common stuff that made up the bulk of
the supply and trade has been weak with
a lower tendency from atart to finish.
Oood cows and heifers also sold to better
advantage, about 1525c higher for the
week, while canners and cutters have been
hard to move right along and the trend
of values has been steadily lower for any
thing of this kind. The good fleshy feed
ing steers continue to move freely at good
to firm figures while light and off qual
ity stock cattle both cows and steers are
a drug on the market at the lowest prices
of the season.

GRAIN MARKET
Omaha, November, 21, 1918.
Receipts of grain totaled only 98 cars,
with oats arrivals of 60 cars, much larger
than the combined total of all other
grains. Wheat receipts were 7 cars, corn
20 cars rye 2 cars and barley 6 cars.
The limited number of corn offerings
had a very alow sale, due largely to Belt
ers demanding greater advances than of
fered. Sales made were at about un
changed pricea, with new corn strong.
Oats prices were 4 c off. Rye declined
3c and barley was 1c to 2c up.
Wheat waa about unchanged.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Nov. 21. Fresh indications that
immense supplies of foodstuffs from the
United States would soon reach Europe
made the corn market today average high
er, despite sharp differences of opinion as
to the magnitude and continuance of the
export movement. Prices closed firm, 4 0
lc net nigner with December $1.2914
1.29 and January 31324 01.32K. Oats
gained 'i&Kc The outcome in provisions
varied from unchanged figures to 45c
lower.
New statements form the food adminis
tration referring to the needs of starving
millions in trans-Atlantic countries gave
corn an upward swing at the outset, but the
effect was soon more than counterbalanced
by word that grain prices in Paris had
fallen about 50 per cent. The Paris report
was construed by the bears to mean that
supplies In France were more plentiful
than had been generally believed here.
This view, however, was later eclipsed by
advices that recent United States govern
ment purchases of flour totaled 3,000,000
barrels, that rationing of food In Great
Britain would not cease for mony months
and that five large Dutch steamships had
already left American ports with cargoes
to remedy part of the food shortage in tne
Netherlands.
.Oats merely reflected the action of corn.
Weakness In the hog market eased pro
visions.

New York, Nov. ll.--Cotton closed at a

New York, v- Nov. 21. Erratic price
changes attended today's stock market,
trading falling to the lowest ebb In sev
eral weeks until the last hour, when an
active selling movement effaced numer
ous gains.
Until that period even the professional
element seemed disinclined to take even
a temporary stand, pending partial re
adjustment of existing uncertainties, but
the weight of the later offeringa was too
great to overcome.
Moderate strength In the early and In
termediate stages of the session was at
tributed to prospecta of less stringent
money conditions after next week's heavy
payment on the Fourth Liberty loan. This
possible relaxation was not expected to
apply to time funds, the paucity of which
is likely to extend over the year's end.
Specific reasons accounted for the heavi
ness of certain Issues, such as shippings,
metals and motors. Marine preferred re
corded an extreme setback of six points,
with but slight recovery following an

On the constructive side for a time
were rails, which evinced a fair degree
of strength, and Industrials, including
United States Steel and former war equip
ments, also oils and tobaccos, but the vari
able advances in these groups were for
feited almost altogether at the end.
