in this place Saturday. There was three
tickets in the field, the Democrats, with
W. NJ. Dent for Mayor; the Republican

the anti-AIethodist with ]. A. Clark for
Mayor, In justice to Mr.. Clark it
should be stated that his name was used
without his sanction. The result was
the election OF the Republican-Temper-

the BEE E-CATTLE-Trade was slow and dull,
in reality depressed from the start to the
finish. With fresh receipts there were some
1900 to l4,O00 on sale, a large per cent Of
which were fair to good native steers. The
surplus over fresh receipts were made up of
stock that was carried over from as far back
as Friday night New York dispatches
quote slow market with more cattle than
was wanted. II is almost impossible to con-
vey in words the feeling here this morning.

CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.

CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-fSpecial Telegram to
the BEE "A dull and local wheat market
was taken advantage Of by the short sellers
this morning TO drive prices down little
further, and they met with no considerable
resistance. The scalpers had apparently on
Saturday overestimated the effect Of the de-
crease IN the visible supply and had prepared
themselves with some grain to reap profit
from an unexpected advance. At any rate
they had wheat to sell this morning and no.
body wanted IL at Saturdays prices. Ac-
cordingly May wheat opened to-day at S21sc,
which was &c under Saturdays closing
prices During the early trading the price
advanced to S3c, and then the sagging prices
began and continued with some small reac-
tions to the close Of the morning session,
when May wheat stood at S2asc, the extreme
low point Several times S215@S2% was
touched, but each time IL seemed that there
was plenty Of grain wanted at about that
price and there was a reaction, but this crit
ical point was passed Just at the close of the
session. A decrease in the visible supply Of
wheat of SS2 600 bushels was Just about as
was expected The statement appeared to
have no effect either way.
The price Of corn had climbed up a little
last week and therefore had further to drop
than wheat on the break this morning, and it
did drop. May corn opened at 53a4c and
made no halt of consequence until it reached
53c, which was shortly before the close Of
the morning session, standing at 53d531sc at
o'clock. February corn fell from 4S@Sc to
4sc and closed at O'Clock at 4sc bid.
The speculative oats market sympathZed
with wheat and corn, and without any very
heavy trading May oats, in which was about
all the trading, declined &c. That delivery
opened at 335sc and gradually fell to 33l SC,
which was the price at the o'clock close
In provisions the tendency was somewhat
bearish. Trade opened strong, but before
operators had time to study the situation and
form an opinion as to the probable course of
values the market assumed an easier con
dition. The old bear party gave early
evidence of possessing vitality and proceeded
to deprcss the speculative lines by a ham
mering crusade in pork, which was crowded
down 40c from the highest point and made to
close 32l &C lower than on Saturday. Lard
suffered an actual decline of 7l8Ml0c and
short ribs 10al2Hc.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Wheat lower; May sold from S23S C tos5l6c C.

OMAHA LIVE STOCK.
Cattle.

Monday, Jan. %, 1883.
The receipts of cattle were light and the
market quiet The quality of the stock re-
ccived averaged with the receipts Of some
time past, one bunch of seventeen natives
weighing ,223 lbs each selling for S4.25, the
highest price paid to-day. Forty weight steers
averaging l,4@ lbs. Of not as good quality
sold for S4.OO. The offerings of butchers
stock were light and but little trading was
done, Local buyers took nearly all the re-
ceipts in this line. In all probability the
cattle market will improve from this time
forward although the change may not be a
radical one and some time may elapse before
the best figures are reached Heavy re-
cclpts in Chicago has a tendency to keep
prices down at present, and this is due
chiefly to the fact that the majority of feed
ers are shipping their stock in preference to
feeding 40 cent corn. Those who are hold
ing back are doing so in anticipation of rise
in the market and will doubtless be re-
warded for their action. Even now with the
market in its present condition, prime fat
stock is selling well on the market, a num-
Der of head selling last week for "a so, and
without doubt the same class of cattle would
sell at these figures to-day.

A meeting of the live stock commission
men was held at the exchange building yes
terday afternoon for the purpose of organiz-
ing a stock exchange, the preliminary steps
to which were taken a week ago. The meet
ing was called to order by Colonel Savage
and at the roll call by Secretary Palmer,
nineteen out of twenty-nne firms answered
to their names. The chairman announced
that quorum was present and the minutes
of the previous meeting were read. Messrs
Martin, Chittendcn, Savage and Hote, the
committee appointed to draft constitution and
bylaws then reported through the chairman
Mr. Martin. The name of the exchange is
known as 1.-The South Omaha Live Stock
exchange" and is formed for the purpose of
protecting the interests of shippers and COM
mission men. The officers are to be elected
for one year and to consist of a President,
Nice-presdent, Secretary, Treasurer and
Board of five Directors, a committee of arbi-
tration and Il committee of appeals consisting
of three members each. The rules governing
the association are similar to those of the On
change in Chicago and were with a few
changes adopted. The exchange will doubt
less be very beneficial to those interested.
