THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, THE SPECULATIVE MARKETS. The Wheat Pit Bxcited With Higher Quotations. HUTCHINSON A SELLER OF MAY. A Big Business All Day-—~December's Erratic Behavor — Corn a Shade Easier—Tnteresting o Provision Traders. CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Cnioaao, Sept. 25, —[Special Telegram to Tne Bee.]—Wheat was excited and nigher to-day and the market as yet snows no open signs of reaction, On the last bulge of yes- terday considerable wheat was bought by room traders and carried over in anticioa- tion of & strong and higher market. Disap- pointed in this particular the scalping class of holders let go thoir property and & reac- won of nearly 1o in December was the re- sult. Heavy buying by houses with foreign conncctions soon strenghened the market and turned itup. The recovery was slow until the session was well advanced and in the fuce of strong opposition on the part of Lainn and several other local heavy weights. As on yesterday, Hutchinson scemed to be solling May largely, but his hand was not shown in December. Dunn, Warren and Sehwartz Dupee led in the buying. Decem- beropened at 817¢e, sold down to 8ilg@sli{c railied to $2)4c, sold off to 813{¢, but during the last half hour advaunced to S2%(c and closed there. May opencd ut 844, worked down to 883{¢, while December w 8¢c and recovered to S4(c. A reaction of 1o followed and the price again wont to B4)¢@815%¢c and later to 85lic, the last quo- totion was 85i{c. September ranged from 803¢c, at the opening, to 80¢, up to 80!4¢,back 10 8()4c and closed at S1 A big busiuess was done du the pit throughout, the entire session, the periods of quictude being in- frequent, Nows was bearish as a general thing but the boom could not be “fazed” and the buying fever is apparently far from be- ing exhausted. The volume of general out- side trade is seemingly larger than it has been since the advance started. Outside markets are slow in following the lead of Chicago and have oniy established a small inprovement while Chicago has been making its S@4c gain. December, the month in which the boom has 1L , has scored a disproportionate advauvce. This is a feature that neither the bulls nor the bears exactly like. The bulls in particular would like to see a more uniform improvement in several active futures in the various markets at home and abroad. The corn market averaged a shade easier, and tradingwas not very active. Receipts were in the neighborhood of yesterday's estimates and for to-morrow 000 cars were predicted. ‘I'be outward movement from Atlantic ports ‘was heavier than for the past few days, and the shipping demand here is good, There were 20,000 bushels cleared yestoerday from New Orleans, and the out inspection was indicative of a free movement. ‘There was 1o significance in the trading except perhaps free purchasing of December by the leading operator, ‘Lhere appeared to be plenty of May corn for sale at 833{c. Prices closed as follows: September 513{c, Oc- tober 81)ge, and May 335c, which is a de- cline of about sc since yesterday. Oats were dull to-day with l‘lucluntlons within the narrowest limits, There were fewdransactions except in near futures and at no time was especial activity noticedble in Nay, tho principal speculative delivery. May opened at 22°6@223;c und the range wis at “split” and all day. At the outside the demand was supplied by Hutchinson, ‘who has been a steady seller for two weeks. Trading in September was on a basis of 10} @19!{¢, in October at 19}4¢, in Novem- Der at 191gc, and December at 1937c. Provision traders were again favored with & reasonably interesting day. A couple of houses sliort of October pork, having re- quested the directors of the board of trade to establish @ marginal price for the same the market claimed consideruble attention, Manipulators of October pork were good buyers of the same article for November and among the shorts a generally increased disposition was shown to cover. In all lines of product the buying againstoutstanding con- tracts was aleading feature, and with moder- ate offerings a strong teeling prevailed prices averaged higher and as a rule closes at a substantial advance., In September lard the improvement established was 17 in September short ribs de, in October furd and shortribs 73¢c, in January lard 5¢ and in January pork and short ribs 2}¢e. November pork sold higher, though the closing was the same as yesterday, October pork was nd- Ki‘n"i?“ 20¢ by parties in control, resting at COHICAGO LIVE STOCK. Crrcaao, Sept. 25.—|Special Telegram to Tae Big | —~Carrue—Cattle of high and low degree, principally of the latter, poured in from all quarters this moruing, divided at 9,000 natives, 6,000 Toxans and 2,000 rangers. ‘Phe trade opened slow and rather late on account of the time taken up to yard this big run and thoe late arrival of trains, Receipts now show an increase of 9,000 over the same time last weel, the increase being largely in Texans and rangers, yet each day natives have formed ubout half the supply, and to- day more than half the natives were of that half tat, almost unsalable class. A salesinan said: “It required the skill and labor of a man and two boys to soll a load of this half native stock today, and the durned stuff is 10@15c lower than last week at that.” Prime export steers and good dressed beef stock were barely steady. Some salesmen were quoting second class export- ers as slow at a slight decline, Texans were also slow and prices weak at a decline of 10 15¢ that set in on Monday aud is yet in force. Rangers underwent little or no change, and prime native butchers' stock continues 10 sell at about the same as last week.

Many who have talked and worked for higher prices are tired of walting for the promised bull market. The list is now about 2 poiuts off from the best figures of the month and there is quite a dis- sition among operators to let prices go off ® couple of points further, believing that the rebound will give the big advance expected, ‘The leaders still talk of great opportunities for profits on the rise of 5 per cent on-stand- wrd stocks, but there is a disposition to wait for the removal of the tight money bugbear and for fresh influences of sowme sort. The dulluess of the provious days was upon the Alst, except an animation in Louisville & Nashville, Sugar Trusts and Tennessee Coal, while the last numed was the only one which disolayed any wotion of importance after the opening. First prices were wen- erally from 4 to % per cent higher than last eveniug's closing figures, but in London, Loulsville & Nasbville was selliug at the equivalent to 79, and it opened at an ad- vance of §¢ ut 785, afterwards rising to 79, where it was maintained the greater portion of the hour. Sugar Trust opened off X st losing 08 and turther retired to 97§, between which figure and 93!4 it fluctuated violently. Tennessee Coal was romarkably strong, and after opening up 1{ at 52}, rose steadily to b41{. Before noon Grangers and coal stocks generally weakened i to % per cent, but showed a slight recovery from the bottom figures bofore 12 o'clock. There was quite & fair rally throughout the stock list before the close. Union Pacific moved up to 647§ on the favorable roport. Grangers moved up 80 a8 to sbow a net gain at the close of 1§ to 4 for all, while Missouri Pacific gained % per cent. Reading climbed to 47, a gain of %, Manitoba went up to 115, closing ¥ bet- ter at 114}, Louisville, after a good day, was 1 point up wt 78%. The taking of £15,000,000 in bonds by the government late in the day was rogarded very favorably.

Cattle Wednesday, Sept. 25, The more ordinary grades of cattle were B5@10¢ lower in Chicago vesterday and the same decline was reported again to-day. As & natural result the buyers set outhere to pound prices, and their blds were 100 lower on na- tives, To-day's cattle receidis were the heaviest siuce a week ago Monday, & hun- dred fresh loads beiug reported in the yards, Waile a large proportion of the cattle wero westerus, there was a pretty fawr nuwber of native steers. The westerns were not very #ood on an average, and a very considerable number of them could be classed as fecders. Some of the natives wero pretty fair, but there was nothing to compare with the $4.271¢ cattlo yesterday. Some native stoers #old at &3, The market was rather slow and the number of cattle sold was con- siderably less than yesterday.s Butchers' stock, such as fair to good cows, sold at about yesterday's prices. Cows sold all the way from $1.00 to $3.00, but $1.40@2.50 bought the mostof them, The supply of feeders was large and there were a good many would-be buyers in the yards, but they spent the morning mostly i looking around, the wrade being slow. In the end quite a wood many were sold. Values did not show any essential change. Natives brought $2 45@ 2.80 and westerns $2.35@2.00. Hogs, To-day’'s hog market opened strong to 5S¢ higher, and was active at the advance, but the close was weak and the late arrivals had to sellat about yesterday’s prices, Both pack- ors and shippers were v6 buyers of I hogs, which sold largely at $3.90@3.95 as against $3.85@3.90 yesierday. Boston was a large buyor, payiag §3.00@3.95 for the best heavy weights,” Light hogs were also in good demand, and as high as $4.10 was paid for good light. Like yesterday sellors were not disposed to sort up their loads, preforr- ing to let them go mixed, and the buyers were compelled to look to second hands for their sorts. Shippers were payiog $1.10 for their sorts, which was B¢ higher than they paid yesterday. The market on mixed pack- ers did not show much change from yester- day, the advance being mostly on the best grades of light and heuvy.

A General Banking Busiuess Iransacted, A WONDERFUL CITY, Thirty Thousand People, With Neiths Shop, Artisan Nor Trade. Lying between Asam and Burmah is the remote little hill staie of Manipur. lately visited by, Indian o'ficers, one o whom, writing on the torest of the state in Indian Forests, gives an extraordi- nary account of Imphail, the cavital, says the London Times, It is situated in what appears a dense forest. *Neither spires nor chimneys cut the biue sky, nor is smoke observed to ascend from the sylvan scene of the capital. Noth- ing, in fact, bespeaks the busy homo of 80,000 to 40,000 peovle, and_yet hidden away among these trees is the palace of the rajuh, and hard by are the houses of his favorites, each family having a large inclosure around the homestead. Imphail may thus be described as & city of villages, or rather suburban resi- dences, around the palace. Straght, wide roads lined with trees, frequently intersocting each other at right angles, afford the means of communication, but neither shop, artisan,nor wheeled conveyance exists in the city. Industry and skill oceur only in the distant rural homes. The people of the capital are the promoted favorites of the ruler, who has had nssigned to them plots of ground near the palace, and live by pressing upon the persecutod agri- culurists of the state, The capital of Manipur is aroyal resi- dence dedicated to luxury and amuse- ment. All are happy. The streets ure crowded with smiling, healthy faces, of which few bear the marks of toil and labor. There are no schools in the stato, and _court favor and promotion are secured by success at polo, Coinuge is unknown,and the men are not al- low to trade. Imports and exports, except in certain articles that yield o reveunue, are practicaliy prohi- he women from the distant villages repair on a certain day tothe capital or 10 other recognized centers, Kach car- ries on her head a neatly made square basket, in which had been placed the surplus stock of the homestead, the labors of her industrial skill or of her husband’s agricultural knowledge. On reaching the market place the contents of these baskets are exposed and bar- tered, when each returns again to her i rrying off the proceeds. On market days the long, straight road from Bishenpur to Imphail is crowded by groups of women hurrying to and fro. lach wears an elegantly striped dress in bright colors, made of silk and cotton. The stripes run along the length, and the top and bottom are neatly embroidered. A long piece of of clotb is cleverly carried across the tucked up, so that the top embroide edge falls forward, adding an additional fold to the garment, while the bottom edge reaches a little below the knees. ‘Lhe legs and avms ave left exposed.
