WEATHER DEPRESSES PRICE OF CORN Heavy Rains Caused Good Buying of Oats, Making Higher Prices, the Provision Market Hold: ¥'s Strength, \ CHICAGO, Sept. 10.—Corn and wheat were weak the greater part of the session, the former steauying a iritle at the close ai @ 088 of %c tor December, the latter sSnow- ing a net ioss of w@lc for the same option. Outs, sirong, wiver closing e higner, B about yesteraay's prices, December Btarling at 82 to Bs@%c, the sustan features being fairly steady cables lighter recelpls southwest. An easier tone #oon prevalied, however, Induced largely by antcipation of a bearish government report, commission houses and long hold- ers letting go_considerable quantiuies, A break to bi%c resuited in the December op- tion. 'The close was at siightly betier prices, due to covering by shorts, with D cember at BI%@si%c, u net loss oi e, Clearances of wneat and flour were equal 10 42,000 bushels, and primary receipts 1,- 206,000 bushels, against 1,861,000 bushels last yoar. Minneapolis and Duluth reported re- ceipts of 916 cars, which, with local re- celpta of 151 cars, 6 of contract grade, made a total for three points oi 1,06/ cars, against 310 cars last week and a ear a Continued mild weather in the corn belt brought out quantities of long corn, and al- though local bulis offered considerable sup- port early, prices continued to sag. KEx- pectation of bearish advices in the govern- ment report also contributed to the weak- ness. Commission houses generally were on_the selling side, and shorts wno had covered on tne frost scare put out their lines. December £old down from the opens 51 to blic, to 80%c, closing at 60%@60%c, W@lc. Local recelpts were 612 36 of contract grade, There was general good buying In oats, influenced by neavy rains in many sections and o prevalling feeling that the govern- ment report would show & large reduction in the Indicated yleld.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.—The stock mar- ket was rather more active today, but the Increased activity was in many in- stances made at the expense of prices. The opening, though tame, was slightly higher, Atchisoh resuming to an extent I1ts recent leadership, but later ylelding to the United States Bteel shares. The extreme weak- ness of United States Steel stocks, which were sold in large volume, was a dis- turbing feature. Stories concerning the next_action to be taken on the dividend on Steel common, together with adverse trade reports, were freely circulated, but nelther confirmation or “denial was ob- tainable from authoritative sources. An- other stock that showed market weakness in the early session was Brooklyn Transit, the result, it is said, of a pool dissolution. Norfolk & Western scored a one-point ad- vance at the opening. Trading relapsed into extreme duliness in the second hour and the drift of prices was again down- ward. The reduction in the price of south- ern pig ifron probably influenced the 1% per. cent decline in Tennessee Coal and Tron and was not without effect on other stocks of that class, Colorado Fuel advanced 2 points for né apparent reason. Business came to almost & standstill in the early afternoon, but there was some covering and prices hardened in some instances, only to_lose their improvements later. Forecasts of the government crop report were conflicting and traders seemed dls- P to hold off in absence of definite news. For the rest of the day business continued dull, and, aside from the fur- ther large offerings and Increased weak- ness of the United States Steel stocks, to- gether with _some liquidation of Atchison, the session was most featureless and clos- ing prices were generally at the lowest. Only_a few issucs, such as St. Paul and the Pacifics in the list of standard rail- way and some of the high-class specialties, displayed comparative firmness, London operations here were lifeless,” the only notable exceptions being steel. e Joua mmoney sitsation excited little interest, in spite of a gain of $850,000 by the ‘bariks, making o total since last Fri- day of about $L Call *money con- tinued available at from 3 to 214 per cent, bt “there. seemed litte ~fustification for the statement that ninety-day money could be had in any amount under § per cent. Demand sterling broke 5 points at mid- day, the result of a light demand. Among the few rallway returns of the day was that of Illinols Central, showing increase in Ernu earnings of more than $600,000, making over $1,000,000 since July 1. The ' bond market lacked feature and moved irregularly on a small range. Total sales were of par value of $320,00.

Heavy hogs sold largely from $.5 to %. with some common stuff as low as 5. Medium weights sold largely from $5.65 to $5.75, while light weights went from $.65 to $#800. This advance carries the market to the highest point of the year to date. the time half of the hogs had Shunge hands packers slowed down, as they were unwilling to pay the prices’ asked. " Sales- men, on the contrary, all wanted the morn- ing prices and as a result trading on the close was slow, with the feeling weak, At noon_there were still several loads of hogs in first hands and from the way packers were bidding fully haif of the advance of the morning was lost.

Owing to the fact that prospects were not ‘avorable for many cattle being re- ceived the remainder of this week, pack- ers took hold freely and the market could be quoted active and _steady to _strong, There was a fair sprinkling of eorn fed steers included in the recelpts and owing to a good local demand and favorable re- ports from Chicago the market ruled active and steady to strong. Several bunches of cnttle were good enough to bring $5.50. Short fed cattle, such as come in compe- tition with the' westerns, did not show any particular jmprovement.

HE THREATENS TO KILL TWO OTHERS Escapes Into the Woods Well Armed and Posse is in Parsuit with Instructions te Shoot WATERLOO, I, Sept. 10.—Willlam A. Hoffman, a young farm hand living near here, called his father-in-law, Dr. Willlany Brandt, to the door of his house last night and shot him to death. Then he rode back to his home, told his wife that “he had killed the old hound, her father,” gave her §2 which he sald he ‘wanted her to spend on the christening of their baby, kissed her and their four chil- dren and rode into the woods. ““There are two men I must kill before I kill myself,” he sald to his wife, before leaving. The family of Dr. Brandt offers.a reward of $300 for Hoffman's capture, Sheriff Ruch and a large posse are search- ing for him. He is heavily armed. Just be- fore killing his father-in-law, he purchased fifty rounds of cartridges. Hoffman is an unerring marksman and the officers belleve he was driven to reck- lessness by whisky and his imaginary troubles. ‘Warned to Beware. Before murdering Brandt he told Herman Pape: “In one hour there will be a war- rant out for me. Dut look out; I Will shoot you or Ruch or anybody else who tries to arrest me." Hoftman's wife says that as he left he declared: “I must kill two men and then myself. If the sheriff or his deputles try to arrest me, I must also kill them." Sheriff Ruch thinks Hoffman is hiding in the woods near his home at Rock Cliffs, He and his deputies are heavily armed and prepared to shoot the fugitive at sight. This entire section of Monroe county is terrorized, as the fugitive is regarded as desperate. It Is not known who are the other two persons he Intended to kill and both men and women are so badly fright- ened that many will not leave their homes without arms, It is supposed that Hoffman's motive for killing his father-in-law was that the old gentleman refused to increase his weekly allowance. Dr. Brandt was quite wealthy and had been practically supporting his son-in-law and family. He gave Hoffman a certain amount of spending money each week. FALSE ALARM AS TO FROST Scare that Fall Came During Night Allayed in Statement Weather Forecaster, from The extreme coolness of the early morn- ing yesterday gave the popular impression that a frost must have fallen in this local ity during the night. Weather Forecaster Welsh discourages the prophesy in the statement that “‘the only frost of which the Weather bureau has any record as occur- ring last night {s the report of a slight frost at Denver. But it was too slight there to cause any damage. No frosts are reported from any other section In this dis- trict. The temperature here in Omaha was 48 and 49 during the night, the former belng the lowest. At 7 o'clock this morning a temperature of 49 prevalled. There was no frost at all in Nebraska. I anticipas that all danger from frost is now over, 8o far as any damage to the maturing of corn is concerned. In fact the cool snap is prac- tically over fof thls season, and’a steady and gradually rising temperature may be looked for, though the present indications promise no particular change for the pres- ent. The frost last year put in Its first ap- pearance September 12 and 13, just a year ago the coming Saturday. It was but a light frost even then.” PERMITS CHANGE IN ORDER Ju Dickinson Gri to Modify Injunction in Gas Company Contract Case, Judge Dickinson yesterday granted an application for a change in the order restraining the city council from recelving or considering a contract from the Omaha Gas company. The court stated that the restraining order went much farther than the petition and that the order was evidently secured for the purpose of restraining the old clty councll from extending the present con- tract of the company and was not intended to prevent the present council from enter- ing into negotlations with, or making a new contract with the gas company.
