THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. Another Bull Day in Wheat Rather | Paralyzes the Shorts. THE RUSSIAN CROP DISCUSSED. | A Rearish Feeling Prevails in Corn Pit — Slow Busmess Oats and Provistons — Hogs Go Lower. the CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, 11eaco, Sept. 12.—[Special Telegram to Tre Bee.l—Another bull day in the wheat market rather disconcerted some of the more stubborn shorts who failed to believ in the tendency it hus been showing during the pust two days, but this class of speculutors were buying to<lay and contributed to help | the bulls after the latter had advanced tho price about 3¢c this morning. The bears had placed faith in the heavy movement of spring wheat, and when, yesterday, the volume of this appeared to bo already abating, and again to-day a still further diminution of receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth- was reported, their faith in the correctness of their prom- ises weakened their belief and caused them o struggle with tt day’s offerings. Werst, the crop exvert, in an interview to-day said that the com- plete government retuens would show that not more than 475,000,000 bushels of wheat had this year been raised on this con- unent, and there was a strong probability that the ultimate figures would show it to be nearer 470,000,000 than 475,000,000 bushels, 8t. Lous reports were very general to the effect that the force of the early movement of winter wheat had extausted itself and thut restricted deliveries from now on would be a strong argument for higher prices. Ca- bles to the board were encouraging to tne bulls, but private dispatches were said to re- flect u weaker tone. Export clearauces gave no evidenco of any animated foreign demand for American wheat or flour, The much discussed question of the extent of this yea Russian crop was again raked up to do duty for the bears. Like Banquo's ghost, it will not down. It was once more claimed that the Russian spring wheat crop was_so abundant a8 to make good all deficiencies of winter wheat, This was oue of the reasons for the bulls for some of the | early deciine. The poor quality of the wheat arriving in this market is a_sore di ment, and the small proportion of No. 2 is a source of uneasiness to the bears and is being constantly trotted out as an argument in fayor of their opponents. The opening price for Decemoer was or u Jbetter than ut the close y *down to 785, up to T8¥{c, nzain off, g e, und evinced a reluc avove I8, It finally, however, reached 79c, and fater 74lge, which latter wus again the halting spot “for some time, Finally, however, it advanced to ¢ und reacted to 7% @ivlgc, where it rested.

Remote futures were conspicu- ously weak and became the main target for a bear attack. Cash and September corn continued to received strong supvort from a leading overator, who is said to owu most of the contract corn in store houses now, und his action, along with some sympathetic in- fluence from the strength of the wheat market, were chief fuctors on the other side. There was no great ac y in trading and prices at the close were as follows: Septewm- er 835¢c, October 8i3gc, May 85¢ bid, Oats were dull and” weaker. The posted receipts exceeded the estimate, frost in the west failed to materialize, and with corn easy rather mére onts were offered and the buying support was small. May sagged back !ge to 23c, though it steadied later, and near months were in some instances g (@i lower. Withdrawals for shipment con- tinued liberal and cash trading was chi by sample. For No. 2 regalar 19¢ was the usual bid price, with light grading finally re- corded at 191 . The provision trade was a little slow. October pork sold off somewhat, more in consequence of the wunt of hackbone ap- parently in the much-advertised squeeze than from any direct hammering, and for Octo- ber short ribs prices also ruled easier, Lard for the samo month, how was well supported. In the January property the changes wituessed show a loss of streugth since yester Hogs continue to be received more fr at packing points than last vear. Last week pucking in the west showed an increase of 45,000 hogs over the same weels in 1855, amounting to 145,000, In the general produce market there wus no life to spcak of to-day. Orders of all kinds were under the average, and the speculative busifiess nsacted was mainly on local ae count. The closings indicated an advance of 5c in September lard and a decline of 80c in October pork, bc in Scvtember short ribs, 10c in October short ribs and January pork, and 2c in Jauuary short ribs, Lard for October and Junuary wus quotably un- chunged. CHICAGO LIVE BTOUK. The CnicaGo, Sept. 12.—|Special Telegram to Tnr B -Carrre—The rmelmnumswlu«l of 8,000 Texans, 8,000 rangers and 5,000 na- tives, At the close of yesterday’s market prices, according to the observation of ac- tive and veteran salesmen, were the lowest for the week and in some cases the lowest for the season on natives. Prime Nebraska steers, averaging 1400 lbs, were as low as £3.50, and there were instances where good steers that cost $4.00 n the country sold here at $3.90. There was certainly more complaint and more unfavorable comment by salesmen on the pressed coudition of the market yestorday afteruoon than the 'writer of these reports has listened to this season. To-duy thero was little or no improvement in any direction. The bulk of the native stock was a good equal to any day of this week, and among the offcrings were several loads of export steers, but the general market was slow, dragging and un- shtisfactory on almost everythiug iu the na- tive line.

FlNr\‘“ AL, New Yonk, M])l l" Special Telegram to Toe Bek |—-Srocks—The closing of the stock market yesterday was in such a “*blaze of glory" from a bull point of view that ex- pressions at the Windsor aud elsewhere last night were very sanguine, The reactionists were feeling sick and the smal! holders who bung on were greater than the manipulators for an bour, *“Nothing but disaster of some sort will prevent an advance now,” was the voice of the trade. uld’'s remark, “*Many stocks look cheap to we,” was repeated by many. Russell Sage was quoted as saying that the list is full of bargains on the buying side. The backers of the Gravgers were the most confident people on the strect. Some of the bull enthusiasm, however, was lost over night, for the opening was but fairly uctive this moruing, aud, as a rule, first prices were THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1889.

THE COPPER SITUATION. The announcements that the grand copper combination has been completed have been premature, to say the least, says the Iron Age, The general plan has been worked out, however, and th e really seems to be some prospect that it will be given a trial. There 15 always @ possibility, of course, that there will be some hitches over the details, and that some con- corns may mot be induced to enter iuto the pool, probably acting in the be- Lief that they may vak: vantage of 1ts b fits without bearing any of its burdens. far as cun be ascertained at this writing none of the miues to be heard from are indi- vidually very large, but at least one of them is important enough to create a feeling of discomfort. With a few exceptions,howe the American companies appear to fallen into ue, thoe large holders of to whom the load carried by the Societe des Metaux and the Comptoir d’ Escomple was trausferred, seem willing to co-oper- ute, und esome headway hus been made with the great European compaunies, 1t is not to be wondereda at that the American compunics give least trouble. They ure sup- posed to be uble to take cuare of the home market without much danger of iuterfer- ence. The speciul devico by which tuis is to be done is tho old pool sale arrangement of the days of lake supremacy, expanded to in- ciude the Montana and Arizoua mines. To vprevent any irregularities the lake copver isalito be sold pro ratu by a New York broker. and the casting brands by a Balti- more firm. The doling out of the metal to consumers aud tne establishwent of prices is to be in the hands of an autocratic com- mittee composed of Colonel Livermore, of the Calumet and Helow wine; J. B, Hagun of the Anaconda, und W. Koyrer, who identified with Arizona interests.” 1t ap- pears that fines are to be inflicted 10 punish_any infractions of the agr ment. One cause of rregularity which grew out of the interest of one mine 1nu covper rolling-mill hus been removed, through the fact that the mill inquestion has joined tho association of copper munufac turers. Even with a few of the smaller m ing companies enjoying the fruits which full to the lot of frec lances, the plan seems quite capuble of outliving dungers to its existonce for awnile, provided that the price 18 kept moderate, and provided that the foreign markets are kept in shape, Thio bulk of the stock of copper here and abroad is coutrolled by great banking houses. Itis atated that the Banque de EFrauce is carrying 60,000 tons, the Roths- childs 40,000 ‘wons, the Banque de Paris 000 vons, and Baron Hirsch 20,000 tous. Besides, the Barings have a lerge stock ot Montana copper. the Boston and Montana company coutinung to deliver its output on the old” societe contracts to that banking concern, The holders of the Rothschilds are considered o bo well taken cure of, si that house is now virtually the owner of th great manufacturing plants of the Secete des Metaux, consuming, as thev do, upward of 25,000 vons of copper annually, 1t is under. 8tood that the present owners of the societe stock in this country have ugreed to ship it aboard, and undertake to keep it there, pro- vided that the American mines will nov ex- port more than given auantity annually, say about 80,000 gross tons. In other words, the banking houses will let us alone wnd turn over the American market to home producers, providing the lutter will keep their shipments to Burope within bounds. But even that concession is inadequate, 5o far as the American mines are cono They have a deep interest in the fo warkets for two reasons, Their su must be sold there and within certuin limits prices must follow the course of values there. Whatever agrecments might be mude on this side they could not long outlive free competition in Kurop Iv is understood that this contingenc is to be met by a re. striction of output on the part of leading mines contributing to the European markets, The whole plan is 80 huge, and is beset with so many dungors and difiicultics, that few, even auong the copper producers, aro sau ine as to its continuunce for any lengthy perod. Manufacturers in this country, when the time for pool sules does come, Will be offered the usual guarantees that during the time of delivery the murket will be sustained. Neitter they nor cor sumers generally will be rash enough o buy for more thun Jheir immediate wants. 'Lhey have all learned 10 get along with very low stocks und will nov chauge their policy so long as the prices are kept much aboye the 10-per-cent level, So English Metal Mark.
