4 SHE OMAHA _—n—mn—m—m—m—— DAILY BEE: FRIDAY OCTOBER COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Wheat Bhorts on Anxious Seat B:oause of the Bmall Receipts. CORN AND OATS ARE SOMEWHAT HIGHER There Were Breaks All Along Line in Provisions Early in the Day, but Market Later Be- came Steady, CHICAGO, 1L, Oct. 8.—8horts in Decem- ber wheat were on the anxious sent again today as the result of smail primary re- ceipts and large premiums for cash wheat. | The market was unexpectedly strong. De- cember corn was up ic, onts %@%e higher, but_provisions continued in their down: ward cou the January products closing from 10G15c lower. Active buying of December wheat by commiseion houses and brokers caused a strong tone on that grain, gnd as a re- sult of this urgent demand, the nearby de- livery rose to the level of the May option. Opening prices were firm on steady cables, December_being unchanged to e higher at TIRGTT%e to TIN@TTAc. There was a disposition on the part of the general trade | 1o regard the early strength as a joke and scalpers sold on the advance In expecta- tlon of a reaction. But the firmness did not yleld, and the character of the buying secmed to Indicate support from one of the most prominent bulls. As a result shorts covered freely and the market Louls and Minneapolis together with the small primary receipts and the 'arge pre- miums offered for the cash article were bull factors later in the day and prices continued strong up to the close. Final figures on December were up 1@l%e at ¢, after it had touched 78%@7c. Clear- ances of wheat and flour were equal to 49,- 000 bushels. Primary receipts were §80,900 bushels, against 1,083,600 bushels a_vear ago. Minneapolis and 'Duluth reported receipts of 502 cars, which with local receipts of 101 cars, one of contract grade, made total re- celpts for the three points. of #3 cars against 096 cars last week and 819 cars a year ago. Corn_ ruled strong with wheat and a greater inclination to buy was manifested on the part of local traders, while shorts also were quite active on that side of the market. Samples of corn from the country showed conditions favorable to the bulls, the keenest interest in the recent cold snap. After selling between 45 and 46%c December closed %c higher at 4i%c. Local recelpts were 21 cars, thirty-three of contract grade. Oats followed other grains in their upward tendency, and after a s'ight dip at the opening, prices ruled firm. There was lit- tle pressure to sell and fair demand sprung up from shorts. The close on December was at an advance of W@%c at 3614@36%c, after ranging between 36c and 36%@36%c. Local recelpts were 123 cars. There were breaks all along the line in provisions early in the day on liberal commission house selling, with little de- mand. The severe decline In hog prices dur- ing the week was the principal depressing inflyence. Prices held at about the open- ing_figures throughout the day, January rk closing 15c lower at $12.00. January ard was off 12i4c at $6.60, while ribs were down 10@12%c at 6.37%. Estimated receipts for tomorrow: Wheat, %0 cars; corn, 32 cars; oats, 130 cars; hogs, 16,000 head.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.—There was practic- ally 10 reief to the weakness of today's stock market from start to fnisn. There was an occasional pause In the downwurd course of prices, wilch was suoply due Lo a lull in the selling movement, bul the re bound on SHOTL cOVerings was in every case feeble and ineffective. ‘Ihe last pric Were practically the lowest of the day and the closing was weak. Net declines of one ane two polnts and up were quite general throughout the list. ‘Chere was notuing to show that the liquidation was due 1o co traction of credits, such as forced the heavy selling In the recent past, althougn there are time loans, maturing trom time to Ume which are calied for payment, and today liguidations seemed to be prompted more by sentiment of disgust and discouragement with the whole situation. The extended reports this morning of the testimony encited yesterday in the hearing of the legal proceedings in the United States Shipbuilding company created a pro- found impression throughout the financlal world. The detalls there set forth of the process of corporation promotion, under- writing, and stock quotation gave rise to disturbing analogles with a large mass of industriai securities which have come into the market in the last few years and a now lying there in a practically wa logged position. 'The assumptions growing out of yesterday's disclosures were of 50 grave a character, and applled to such im- portant quarters as to unsettle the mind of the financial public over the most c servative convictions. ‘The gravity of the occasion received its recognition in the due course of the public statement issued later in the day, formally disclaiming the im- plications of the incident ! Morgun & Co. Following the widespread distu:b- ance of sentiment In the market caused bY the reduction of the dividend on United States Steel, the stocks had a bad day of it. United States Steel common sold down to its previously low record of I1%, and the referred stock was even more Sevi y handled with a declide of 2% points. Yes terday's argument that the reduction of the dividend on the common Increased the secugity for the dividend on the preferred lost Tts force in face of computations that the decrease in net carnings was at a rate greater than the reduction In the division disbursment. _Amalgamated Copper wa the fellow sufferer most acutely affected. The stock fell to a new low record of 5 in the lnte dealings after some show of sup- port had been accorded abo e. It was agreed that the reaction in the fron and steel market must extend to copper, while the relative price of Amalgamated and United States steel on a similar division level was again used to Qisadvantage of the former stock. Brokers whose oper tions yesterday on the buying side in vari- ous stocks were attributed to inside sup- porting orders turned sellers today with corresponding effect on the gone nti- ment. The weakness was by no means con- fined to the industrials and the railroads suffered quite generally in the general de- pression which _ weighed the market pecific news was entirely lacking to nc- count for the selling pressure all througn the market. The bond market behaved better than and showed some evidence of in- t bsorption. Total sales par $3,652,000. United States 2s declined i per cent on the last call.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.--The_ cotton market opened firm at'a decline of 2 points on No vember, but generally unchanged to 4 points higher 'on firmer cables, less favorable weather and early estimates pointing to- ward smaller recelpts. For a time It ruled fairly steady under further covering and bull ‘support, encouraged by the unfavora- ble crop advices, but after reaching to a level 2 to 5 points higher, and a Sagging tendency developed which' continued more or less in evidence during the remainder of the session. Trading during the entire day was quiet and there seemed to be little de- mand from any source, notwithstanding the hullish tendency such as frost tonight over the western belt that was a factor in the early advance. But with little demand the realizing of the room after the anvances of yesterday in_connection with some little pressure from bearish sources was suffi- clent to send prices off and at one time the general list was net 4 to 9 points lower. Just before the close there was a little rally on the steady tone reported in the southern spot marlkets and the market was finally steady net unchanged to 6 points lower. Sales were estimated at 20,000 bales. The steadicr tone at Liverpool was ascribed to further demand from the continent, while it was also stated that the English miils would shortly resume operations on full time. The factors operating against the market were the unsettled Wall street con- ditions and the facts that the receipts ran over the estimates.

There was a_liberal sprinkling of cornfed steers Ineluded in the receits and packers were Inclined to be a trifie bearish on them. The market could probably best be d scribed by calling it steady to a shade fer, especially on the less desirable grades. There were several loads that showed con- siderable quality, as will be seen from the sales below Cow buyers were also a little bearish this morning, but salesmen were all holding for steady prices, and as a result there wus very little change from yesterday in the prices paid. As compared with a week ago today, which was the low point, the gen- eral market is safely a quarter higher on all grades. There were a good many cows ineluded in the receipts and owing to the late arrival of trains the day was well ad- vanced before a clearance was mad: Bulls, veal ca enough change to be worthy of mention. There -was a brisk demand for stockers and feeders this morning where the guality was satisfactory and prices could safely be quoted steady. The common cattle, how- ever, dragged to some extent and in some cases seemed to be a trifle lower. The de- mand from the country yesterday was again very liberal. There was nothing particularly new in the market for western '‘ass beef steers. Anything at all good met with ready sgle at steady prices, while the common kinds were rather slow but about steady. Range cows sold steady to a shade lower and the best grades of feeders were active and steady, with others slow. Representative sales: BEEF STEERS. £ 8 BLEES > 5 = EBRASKA.
