THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, MARCH 8, 1921. Ranchmen Ask Rounding Up of, ' Wild Antelope Herd, Believed Only one at Large in United States, Causing Trouble in Holt County. O'Neill. Neb.. March 7. (Special.) A roundup of what is probably the only herd of wild antelope now at lare in the United States may be held in Holt county this spring by the state and federal game depart ments, and the antelope removed to the federal game preserve at Val cutine. , The herd, which is wintering in the; hills and around the lakes of southern Holt county, about 20 miles below Atkinson, is the cause of much trouble to the ranchmen of that vi cinity. Occasionally a lone member ff theSierd on a scouting tour will nop over a range fence and at tempt to mingle with the range cat tle, resulting in a stampede of tht frightened cattle and broken fences. ' The antelope herd numbers 18 or 20 and is thought to be the lastof the thousands of antelope which once roamed the prairies of Nebras ka, Kansas and Colorado. Some ranchers are of the opinion that it strayed in from the Black Hills sev eral years ago, others that it is but the natural increase of several pairs of antelope which escaped from the Valentine preserve, while many old. timers insist that antelope never have been exterminated entirely in the sandhill regions and that this is but one of several herds reported s briiip seen in Survey valley in Cherry county last winter. Ranchmen do not want the ante iope killed, and neither do they cart to have their cattle stampeded, so the attention of the state and feder al authorities probably will be called to the hord. lust bow the antclone can be rounded up is a problem yet unsolved, as they are the fleetest ol animals and easily jump a 12 or 15 ioot barricade. t Prominent Womarr Mav Run for Wymore Mayor Wynmre, Neb., March 7.

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. New York, March 7. There was more disposition on the stock ex change today to observe the course of events of the London conference than had been during the preceding week. Such movement of prices as occurred was upward during the ear lier hours, when dispatches forshad owing Germany's acceptance of the allied premiers' terms were circulat ed, and down-ward in the final hour of business when the press cables reported rejection of the terms and predicted an immediate advance by Marshal Foch into hitherto unoc cupied German territory. A num ber of the more active stocks rose 1 to 2 points during the general ad vance of the forenoon and declined 1 to 3 or 4 points in the later reac tion, and this double movement af fected both railway and industrial shares. But the resultant change in prices for the day was extremely ir regular. Althoneh nearly all stocks closed below the day's highest, the closing prices showed almost as many net declines. Futhcrniore. business was again very light and one fourth of the total transactions were in halt a doz en industrial shares. Interest In Germany, The market's closing left Wall street In a mood of unquestionably greater in terest in the German complication than it seemed to take last week. It was dif ficult, however, to trace any feeling or acute uneasiness; a, fact which probably reflocted in part the underlying belief that the dispute will still be adjusted. and In part the feeling that even the extension of the allied occupied area and the temporary administration ot tne customs might not greatly alter an al ready complicated situation. When the French army advanced Into Frankfort and Darmstadt last April after Germany had sent troops into the neutral sone, financial markets took alight interest in tha occurrence. Prices on the stock ex change did not decline, and it was during the week that sterling exchange rose to $.06i, the highest rate reached on the recovery from the $3.18 of the previous February. Foreign exchange acted today much as the stock market did. All the European rates advance, in the earlier hours of busi ness; sterling in particular going 1140 above last week's closing to $3.91, or only lo below the year's high mark of three weeks ago. and the German mark recov ering from 1.61V4o to 1.67, also the high est in three weeks. The afternoon reac tion nearly cancelled these advances, but left rates on those and other European points very little changed from Saturday. A recovery in aiiver bullion and a batch of January railway earnings statements, generally unfavorable as to net results, made up most of the day's meager news in other directions. Burden Partly Believed. Saturday's highly favorable showing of the New York Reserve bank and the re serve system as a whole elicited no re sponse in the money market, and none was expected. Tho burden which the reserve banks were carrying last season as their share in the deadlocked Interior indebtedness Incurred for account of un lucky borrowers at the high prices of a year ago, has been partly relieved by liquidation on the part of borrowers. But a good part of It has also been shifted back upon the shoulders of private banks, and that has meant a continuing drain on the New York Institutions which hold accounts for southern and wester Istltu tions. Even with the reserve banks It is somewhat noteworthy that while the system's average reserve ratio Is 8 '4 per cent above this date last year, the percentage of the banks at Dallas, Atlanta and Minneapolis Is lower than in 1920, New Tork Cotton. Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. New York. March 7. In the face nf considerable selling from spot houses and New Orleans interests tho New York cot ton market opened steady at an advance of 5 to 20 points, due chletly to Buying by Liverpool and steadiness in the English, market. The market was Irregular later, with prices showing reactions of 10 or 20 points, and business was quiet around mid day, with traders waiting for more definite London advices. Reports received he're rrom the eastern Belt said tnat tnere was less pressure of distressed cotton and that similar advices were being received from the souihwest. Tho market was easier In the afternoon, under scattered liquidation by buyers who were evidently disappointed by the con tinued absence of definite news from the London conference, selling off to 25 to 30 points from the best. The New York exenange voted today to make Good Friday and Easter Sunday holidays. New Tork Coffee. New York. March 7. The market for coffee futures was lower today, all active positions making new records for the season, owing to easier Brazilian cables and reports ot lower cost and freight offers. The opening ehowed a decline of 10 to 17 points with May selling at 6.18c and July at 6.57o under scattering liqui dation. Selling otherwise seemed to be discour aged by the comparatively low level of prices, but there was very little support and tho close was at approximately the lowest of the day, showing net declines of 10 to 16 points. March, 5.88c; May, 6.18c; July, 6.67c; September, 8.96c; Oc tober, 7.08c; December, 7.38c; aJnuary, 7.44c. Spot coffee was reported In very lim ited demand and nominally unchanged on the basis of 9 He to 10c for Santos 4s.
