March 8.—Wheat s from %e than it closed yesterday. thought it prudent in readiness for what- might have in the stocks to give Satur bulls thought it prudent preparations. One of the in New York concluded whole cargo and did commotion at the start up to the clo There selling out of long corn also and ats as well, both artielos prices. but CHICAGO, o %Ko lower today Yesterday tho shorts to shape their course ver the government way of farm day. Today t to make similar latter who rosides to turn over his and the resulting 1ot recovered some out o was was realizing in ing somewhat under Provisions 1ull closed without much change. Wheat af the opening was about the same as yesterday's closing and then advanced from 4 to %e, but became weaker later and prices declined from %e to %e, became stronger again, and prices were advanced from to e, ruled ecasy, closing about from %e to %¢ from the bottom. —Th firm opening was attributed partially to the rmer English cables, but there scomed to be a disposition on the part of some hold- at the start to sell, and with free offer- the market gradually sagged off. But was pretty fair buying at the decline which caused a reaction again dnd partial recovery of the decline. The receipts in the northwest showed up protty liberal again today, and operators are stil looking for the giminntion in the receipts mentioned and the markets in the northwest were not ®0 strong. A report that $2,000,000 in gold will go out of this country by Saturday's steamer had an unfavorable effect The corn market was hardly active any time. The opening trades were about the closing prices of yesterday, and under a_fair demand sold up from %e to e, a leading operator buying moderately, as was the case yesterday. The advance brought out increased offcrings, shippers and ‘the clevator interests selling, which carried prices down from %c to lec. Room traders who were “long” also sold on the decline. The fine weather and action of wheat were instrumental in influencing the sclling. The closing showed from Y%c to e decline. There Is some talk of smaller reserves In farmers' hand There was no conspleuous trading in oats prices only going e above the closing prico of yesterday. After a %e decline the close wai steady at a net loss of %c on May and steady on July. Provision trading was very light, more so than for a week past, with next to nothing doing in pork and ribs.

Holders of Sugar Shares Not Pleased with the Senato Tariff Bill. NEW YORK, March $.—Holders of sugar shares arc not pleased with the senate tarift bill fixing the tarlff on sugar. They claim the proposed rate is equal to only 1-16c per pound on refined sugar, which scarcely equals the German bounty on beet sugar. On the Stack exchange today the stock went off 6% per cent from yesterday's close, and the closing sale was only %c above the bot- tom figure, the net loss of the day being 6% per cent. Distilling was oppositely affected. After breaking o 24%, the tariff news carried it up to 27%, but heavy sales forced it down and the net gain was only % per cent. Grangers were depressed and the general list was weak. The bond mar- ket was strong. The Bvening Post says: Although the sharp advance of Paris sterling rates may prevent further specie shipments from the United States to France, Saturday's English steamer will probobly carry“out a consider- able amount of gold, and the shipment will be purely commerclal; that s to say, the gold will go because, with all allowances for freight, insurance and loss of interest dur- ing transit, it is a cheaper means of paying foreign debts than the bidding for and ship- ping of bankers’ bills, Foreign sales of se- curities in our markets, which have con- tinued with hardly a break during and since the panic, and the repayment of sterling loans for which our money market no longer gave employment, have much more than counterbalanced merchandise exchange. fhe following are tho closing quotations on _ae leading stocks of the New York exchange <oday Atehison - 137 | Northcrn Pacific, Adams BXproes.. 150 | No. Pac. i Alton, T H... 1 0P D& Gl do pfd..... 11 130 |Northwestern | Aul, EXpross: Qo pfd..

The trial of the case of the state against Edward Collins, charged with having mur- dered Louis McPherson at Valley, this county, during the night of November 18, 1893, was resumed in the criminal court yesterday. Witnesses Byers, Blair, Cul- len and Saunder§ were called and testified for the prosecution, most of them swearing that they had heard the shot that killed McPherson. Some of the witnesses helped to carry the murdered man from the tracks to the hotel. The night of the shooting the moon was shining, which fact the witness thought made it possible for Dale to ha¥e recognized the man who did the shooting. During the morning session of the court the state closed the introduction of testi- mony on the direct examination, after which the attorney for the defendant put William Harrier on the stand. This Witness was the man for whom Collins worked prior to the time of his arrest. On the night of the shooting Collins was at witness' house until shortly after 9 o'clock, after which he went to the barn to sleep. After that time witness did not see Collins until the next morning. On the day of the arrest witness thought that Collins was drunk at the time when he talked with the sheriff and the reporters. He had not seen Collins drink any liquor, but he had the appearance of a man who had been drinking. The witness knew De- tective Ransom of the Union Pacific railroad and knew that he had employed Collins to watch the property of the company and pre- vent it from being stolen.

The Blue Valley Lumber company has brought suit in the district court to recover the sum of $25,000 from Abner and Joseph Conro, wholesale lumber dealers and mill owners at Rhinelander, Wis. The plaintiff alleges that during the month of January, 1892, it was solicited by the defendants to buy a large quantity of lumber that was in the yards at Rhinelander. At that time he alleges that the defendants stated that the lumber was worth the sum of $80,000, and upon the representations that amount of money was pald. Later on the plaintiff learned that there was not the quantity of lumber represented, and that instead of ‘being Worth $80,000, the lumber was worth but $65,000, hence the suit for the balance, Ghost of & Urading Muddle.

DEMAND FOR BEEF IS GETTING BETTER Prices on All Sorts of Fat Steers Strong to Hig! Mixed Steady— apbacked er—Cows and o Trade Was Again Yesterd THURSDAY, March 8. Cattle and sheep receipts so far this week have been somewhat heavier than last, but there has been a falling off of over 5,000 hoj The supply of cattle was hardly as large as dealors were expecting and the better tone to Chicago advices and the good general demand were all in the sellers' favor. There were few really good cattle and none that could be called choice, but when the cattle are wanted bad, buyers are not so captious as to the quality as when they don’t care very much whether they get the cattle or not. At any rate, there was enough com petition from the outside to put prices for the steers weighing upwards of 1,200 Ibs anywhere from a shade to 10c higher than Wednesday. On the ordinary run of stuff the market opened it active and strong and under the circumstances dealers were not long In effecting a cle ance, There was also a livelier, healthier feeling in the cow market. Offerings included less than a third of the entire receipts and buyers for local killers apparently had sufficiently liberal orders to take twice that many Prices were not quotably higher on any par ticular grade, but the trade was_ brisk and the feeling firmer all around. Calves at from $3 to $6.35 were active and stronger, but the market for rough stock was little, if any, different from Wednesda: In stockers and feedor: ctive and prices strong, although the vol- ume of trading somewhat restricted.

There was a good general demand and as easterf markets were better buyers lost no tme In getting down to_ busines On the early market it was $4.75 for everything or a big 10c higher than Wednesday, and buyers were falling over cach other to get the hogs. Bad reports from Chicago cooled their ardor somewhat, and after th first few rounds they were trylng to and did get the hogs at $4.656 and §4.70, the early advance being about all lost. Some sales- men could not see their way clear to tak- ing off so big a slice and the close found several loads still unsold. ~ The bulk of the trading today was at $4.70 and $4 against $4.60 and $4.65 Wednerday, and $4.75 to $4.80 on last Thursday.

Question of Temperature Causes a Row Be- tween Him and County Authorities, COMMISSIONERS ~ WILL MAKE A FIGHT Bills tnearred by Ite Refnsed Crimiual Court Judge Wilk y tho Story of the ding Up t ~ the lreak. The county commissioners and Judge Scott of the criminal section of the district court ¢ put on four-ounce gloves, so to speak, il have gone into training for a contest, the outcome of which will be watched with ble Interest by the other officials. Trouble has brewing for some montlis, but it came to a show down Wednes- day afterncon when Judge Scott adjourned his division of the court, claiming that the temperature of his room was so low that It made the transaction of business Impos- sible, it comfort was to be considered. Some months ago, when Judge Scott sided in law room No. 2, the commissionots claim \hat he went wild upon the question of flags and went to the extreme of having a couple of the starry banners nalled over his door. Not being satisfled with (this display, without consulting the commis- sloners, those gentlemen declare that he hired a painter and gave the interior of the room a coat of bright blue paint, after which he ordered a carpet and easy chairs and couches galore. The bills for these expenditures were examined and pald, the commissioners clalming that as they knew that he was erratic, they considered tha the best way out of a bad job was to humor his whims and give him all of the rope that he wanted, feeling that when he had enough, he, himself, would call a_ halt. Since that time Jiudge Scott and the com- missioners have been upon speaking terms, though they have not been upon terms of the closest Intimacy. Wednesday, however, the bars were lot down and a fight was de- clared, which can only end in the survival of the fittest. During the session of the court and when the McPhorson-Collins murder trial was on the boards, with forty or fifty witnesse present and all being paid by the county at the rate of $2 per day, to say nothing of the jurors and the atforney for the defendant, all of whom are belng paid by the county, Judge Scott suddenly stopped_the progress of the trial, sniffed tho air and declared that the temperature of ! the room was at a point where It would give a man the pnenmonia. Finding matters in this condition the judge declared from his bench that he would adjourn court until such time as he could have the atmosphere warmed up to a degree that would insure hoalth and comfort. After this declaration had been made, court, witnesses, jurors and lawyers left the room, and the super- intendent of the building went In, there to find that while Judge Scott was complaining of cold he had had the steam shut off and all of the windows opened, allowing the ind to whisk about without any obstruc- tions, thus lowering the temperature of the court room to about 40 degrees. Mr. Hauck at once closed the windows, turned on the steam and within ten minutes had tho temperature up to 80 degrees. This fact was reported to the commissioners and in discussing the matter yesterday they said that there was no use of trying to et along with the judge. He was always ready to find fault with everything that happencd to drop in his His room was always too hot or too coll and that it was impos- sible to suit him in any partiular. To show his peculiarities the commissioners cited the fact that at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon the judge had all of the shades drawn and the blinds closed. In addition to this he had lighted the gas and had some thirty Jets burning at their full capacity, notwithstand- ing the fact that it was a bright and sunny afternoon. The commissioners have declared that they will call the judge down in all of these unnecessary expenditures of public money, while the judge has declared himself and has determined to run the criminal section of the criminal court according to his own ideas. heon pre- Damaged by Storm Water. A jury has returned averdict in the caso of Kennard & Ross against Marthena Saunders which has been on trlal before Judge Hopewell for several days, finding for the plaintiff and assessing $100 as 'tho amount of damages. The plaintiffts wero the owners of the second building east of the northeast corner of Kourteenth and Douglus streets, while the defendant owned the building on the corner. Plaintiffs allege that during storms the water flowed from the roof of defendant's building, running into their basement ang damaging the foundation §2,300, and (hat the defendant refused to settle, T R ‘Wants an Old Claim Settled.

Tho ntiff claims_t some years ago the Northwestern lectric Light and Power company leased seven dynamos and a lot of electric light equipments to the defend- ant, the same to be paid for™at the rate of $150 per month.

Corrigan estate ask- ing for a partition of the property, the most of which is located in South Omaha, and is valued at $100,000. A final decree has been ordered in the estate of Samuel R.
