The fall of prlcea had all the earmarks o. the product of a broad bear "drive," end It would hardly be safe to consider the reverse movement as anything other than the effect of short covering. At the sr.ma time sentiment In trading quarters was rendered somewhat more cheerful than last week by the action of the mony market. Probably the fact that call loans renewed at 9 per cent, a stiff figure, helped to further operations for the abort account, but before the leading period waa over there was plenty of funds offered at 7 per cent with no takers. It might be considered that the situa tion reflected something which, has been reiterated frequently in the last month, namely, that Wall street holdings' of stocks on margin had been pretty well liquidated and that a great part of the gale" c had b,fen eel byshort No Constructive features. Considering the situation of credit gen erally, the droD of the ca,ll loan disclosed no new feature of a constructive sort.

Raw Sugar Firm: centrifugal, 19.81c, refined, steady; tine syranuiaita. ii.miou.iik. By CHARLES F. MICHEALS. Chirac Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire. Chicago, May 3. Havy covering of short July and September corn by eastern speculators who sold on the recent break in a market that was bare of offerings, combined with congestion in the May .deliver ies, resulted in a sharp advance with Both May and July sold at new the close at net gains of 24c, the latter on May. At no time were prices as low as Saturday's close. high figures on the crop, as 'did all deliveries of oats with May in the lead, gaining 4Hc," while the de ferred futures were up lc. .Rye closed 3'A3yiC higher and barley 25c higher. i Sentiment underwent a decided change, and a majority of th local professionals were over on the bull side from the start off. Offerings were light until th offers were reached, selling against which checked the upturn. Outside Interest showed a small Increase, but on the whole trade In both corn and oats Was ot a pro fessional character. Free Oats Baying. . Lack of pressure of cash grain and bis premiums In the sample market were the main bullish- Influences. There was frea buying of September oata on account of its discount or ilo under the cash, while Sep tember corn was 30c under No. 2 mixed. Financial conditions attracted little or no attention, ana weakness in stocks was isnorea ror tne nrst time In over a week. Crop reports on the whole were more fa vorable, field work being rushed in th "i"i as in result of dry weather. I'orecast was for unsettled conditions. Long Sell Bye. Longs were th best sellers of rye. but this was more than offset by th buying of cash houses and sports and the under tone was strong from the start. Export riemand was alow and premiums on cash grain In the northwest lower, with No. 1 I . h ? ,?,Br May inat 6c over last week At Chicago No. 2 sold at 2c over.

Nebraska gleaned from railroads ,the Northweatern on April 1 on its eastern division between Long Pino and Omaha snows 18 per cent of the wheat and 21 per ent of the corn still in farmers' hands, somewhat larger percentage ln the Black Hills division. On the Union Pa cific 20 per cent wheat crop Is yet to move. Burllpgton-Hncoln division 60 per cent of the wheat and 40 per cent corn yet to move. McCook division orders 3,723 cars ln February and March; only 600 loaded, leaving 80 per cent wheat and 60 per cent corn still to move. B. W. Snow says: Weather Venditions show a general Improvement the last week, though low temperatures have ruled the one period of somewhat general rainfall,. Advantage has everywhere been taken ot the first opportunity to prose cute spring work and oats seeding espe cially made good progress. Soil conditions wore not satisfactory, and In an ordinary season only occasions! fields of higher end lighter lands would have been seeded. With much seeding, however, three and 'more behind the normal, oats work was prosecuted with soil In poor shape, In fact a considerable percentage of the acieage has been mudded in. For growing wheat . and for oats already germinated the week furnished conditions favorable for vigorous growth. At this writing the Indications favor a period of better set tled weather with more seasonable tem peratures and a general Improvement ln appearance of all growth especially grasses. Is evidently at hand. A few days of", warm weather, however, may herald the appearance of the ,spring breod of Heaslan fly. Corn plowing is be. lng rushed and, with a decrease of wheat and oata acreage, a strong effort will be mads to Increase the corn acreage as far as labor Is available. . New York Curb Stocks.
