Cattle Cattle receipts dropped off
shortly today, the run being only about
1,200 head and the market was active
and stronger for anything useful in the
way of either beef steers or butcher stock.
The best yearlings sold around $14.40
14.50. For the week receipts have been
approximately .16,500 head or 7,500 short
of last week and the trend of values
has been steadily upward. Compared with
the low point of the season a week ago,
values are all of 60 75c higher, an un
dertone of the market better than it has
been for some time, although this Is due
more to the reduction In receipts than
to any improvement in the demand. Busi
ness In stockers and feeders has been
light with prices well sustained for any
thing carrying flesh and quality and tend
ing lower on the general run of stock
cattle.

were slow to move, however, and slow
down from $16.25 to $16.50. These prices

broad and the best ewes here today sold

steadily and prices are fully as firm as a

shown In the medium wools.
"London has fully recovered its slump
and all of the foreign primary markets
are firm. The goods market Is sold way
ahead and still the demand continues,
with manufacturers reluctant to sell much
further ahead In view of the uncer

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago. July 3. Sharolv hleher nrlces
In Argentina added today to bullish sen
timent here regarding corn, and helped
to lift the market to a new high level
for the season. Closing Quotations were
strong at 4 c to 2c net advance, with Sep-
lemDer i.is4 to $1.84 and December
$1,624 to $1,624. Oats finished un
changed to c lower. In provisions there
were gain of 10c to 66c.
Bulls in corn received fresh encourage"
ment from the fact that hog prices had
again surpassed all high records. Dry
hot weather, too, continued at first to make
the buying fever more Intense, but was
offset later as a result of predictions that
showers would be general. However, deal
ers who pay attention to calendar theories
maintained confidence that a bulge was
due for July 4. Just In the nick of time,
advices came to hand that since last
Saturday there had been unusually rapid
upturns in prices at. Buenos Aires. This
led to a new waste of buying orders.
Prospects of cooler moist weather eased
the oats market.
Provisions reflected the rise In the hog
market and touched the highest point yet
this season for pork and ribs.

MILLION - DOLLAR
APARTMENT WILL
BE BUILT BY COLE
Omaha Man Goes East to
Gather Ideas for Big Struc
ture Which He Contem
plates Erecting Here.
David Cole has gone east for the
purpose of gathering ideas relative
to the erection of a $l,Uuu,UUU apart
ment house that he contemplates
building next year on a West Far
nam street corner that he owns. Mr.
Cole will -e absent two months and
during that time he will visit a
number of the eastern cities and
confer with architects. He will look
over apartment houses with the idea
of erecting one here that will be
right up to the minute.
Mr. Cole had planned to start con
struction of his proposed apartment
house not later than this fall, but
the scarcity of labor and the1 high
cost of material caused him to
change his plans. Now his idea is
to determine upon the size and
character of the building, have the
plans prepared during the coming
winter and have everything ready to
let the contract early next spring.
The trip that Mr. Cole is making
will consume, two months. He is
accompanied by his wife and daugh
ter and they are going to motor
through to the Atlantic coast, where
they will spend considerable time.
From the ocean, the Coles will
motor through the Green mountains
of Vermont and the White moun
tains of New Hampshire, possibly
getting up into Maine.
Mr. Cole had planned upon go
ing to Ireland for a month, but when
he found that it was a difficult mat
ter to obtain passports he gave up
the idea and decided upon the motor
trip, instead.

Want Wheel Tax to Go
Towards Improvement
of Omaha Boulevards
The Omaha Automobile club has
raised the question whether the
wheel tax license, imposed by the
city for tjie first time this year,
should not be credited to the bene
fit of the road and boulevard repair
fund, instead of the city general
purpose fund. : , .
Thi query was expressed in a
letter to City Commissioner Butler,
who is out of the city. The matter
has not been brought to the official
notice of the city council. .
The wheel tax ordinance was
passed by the last city administra
tion, and it was understood at that
time that the receipts from the,
tax would be expended for repair
of streets and boulevards.
Instead of carrying out that tin-
derstanding, the incumbent admin-
istration has credited the money to ,
the miscellaneous fund.
Commissioner Ure of the depart-'' 7
ment of accounts' and - finance" exm
plains that the first budget made by
this administration is proving 'Jm.
adequate to the needs and that he
wheel tax receipt of nearly $50,000
a year are needed to come out even
on matters other than repairs-' of
streets and boulevards.

band. -
They opposed the marriage, the
says, and after the wedding they cir
culated false stories about her and
her husband, she charges. She says
they questioned the parentage of the
child when it was born and finally;
on January' 19, she says she was"
compelled to leave her husband an
return to her mother. '
