THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: ST RDAY, '’ FEBRUARY 13 S i — S — OMAHA LIVE STOCK MARKET Activity Obaracterized Oattle Operations During the Past Week, IT WAS DUE TO SMALL RECEIPTS Hogs Brought Pair Prices, One Lond Bring- the Beat Average of Any in the cul Market During the Pres ent Se Five dnys’ recelipts foot up hogs and A0 sheep, cnttle, 90,704 hogs und 2,404 sheep o five days of 1ast week, an in- 5 cattle and 600 sheep and n de- crease of W hogs. Activity charactorized the cattle market throughout, and while there was no guotable Improvement in prices, there. was n firmer feellng than hus prevailed for several duys This was chiefly attributable to the relative smanilness of the receipts, and not to any marked improvem in the d mand. Shippers bought a few heavy beeves. One load of smooth hog fat ,500-1b Loeves went to a shipper nt #.50, the best price paid here fn many weeks. Dressed beef buyers vere active bidders on nice hanay fat cattle, but there was a very general fn- clination to neglect the medium grades of steers—cattle that were not heavy or fau enough for shipping and too heavy for the present requircments of the dressed beef trade. The general murket, however, was in very respectublo shupe and with moderate recelpts prices will undoubtedly Improve.

DRAFTS— STOCKS AND BONDS, Yesterduy Marked Another Lively Day on the Kxchange. NEw Youk. Feb. 11.—At the Stoxk exchange this was unother exceptionaily lively day, ul- though ihere w s no compariscn cither us to the amount of business done nor the excite- ment attendunt upon the trading yesterday. The calmination of the deal was fol- lowsd by large realizat'ons by the fol- lowers of the syndicate, and there was considerable pressure on the coul stocks from bour sources, the advocates of the lower fig- ures being speclally anxious 1o retrieve in some other way their losses by the recent rise, and rumors were olreuluted to this ond, and thut legal proceedings would be takon to pre- vent the consummition of the aprangements. The rumors, however, had 1o effect, the im- pression belng that sueh proceedings, It brought at all, would be merely for u spocuia- tive purpose, and the declines effected in the stocks of those roads today were not entirely due to the effect of the seliing 10 reatize by speculitive buyers. Uhe coul shares were the most prominent group in the murket but theirposition wus not 80 overshudowin z us yesterduy. and other stocks thun those which ire supposed to be benefited by the combination were lurgely traded in attimes. London wis i lurge se.ler of Bt Paul and some others bought u liitle Erie. Chicago bought Chicago Gas, but let it s lute trading with the rest of the list. The Riekmond & West Polnt stocks were vory prouiinent on the rumors that the reorganl tion committee's report to be Issued In 4 short the, would be very favorable. ‘The bears made considerable cipital out of the position of forolgn markets, polniiug out that demand bills are now dungerously near the god exporving point, aud stiil tenaing ubward.
