HENRY CLEws 81 Co. says: The

HENRY CLEws & Co. says: The
situation 10 Wall street has i'm
proved during the week. Heavy
liquidation shifted stocks from weak
i0to strong hands and resulted in
relief to the money market. The
corn crop damage was much exag
gerated, aud it is gener ally acknow-
lodged that the crop situation. as a
whole, promises to be satisfactory.
Nevertheless, damage ruulors are
likely to affect the corn belt roads
at any time and cause violent huc-
tuations. The recent break In the
stock market enabled many big
men to get back their stocks which
had been sold at higher prices The
semi panic last week came through
weak holders being compelled to
liquidate. All the big cliques are
now working together on the bull
aide, SO, for the coming week, at
least, the manipulation will be 10
the direction ofhigher prices. The
bulls have with the II the strongest
financial men in the country, with
unlimited me ans at their command.
The other side of the market pre-
sents some uncertain aspects. The
crop prospects arc below early ex-
pectations, the corn and oat crops
having suffered serious injury, al.
though the loss may be partially re-
pared. The unrest in the labor
market has disturbing effect on
public confidence. 1t seems the
unions have, by concerted under
standing, resolved to make the
Trust movement the occasion to
strengthen their position and SUBJ
ject capital to unreasonable de.
mands. While this conflict rests in
the balance, tAere can be no ram.

 Judge Bradford of Lonoke and Hon. John Keel of Newport still insist that MT. Humphreys is short seven votes. Mir. Humphreys says he is confident of election on the first ballot This is the general impression.
 The contest for the president of the senate is still in doubt. The Wilson and Langford forces are more hope ful tonight, and are claiming aeees- sions from the Kirby forces. Senator Kirby says he will go in by four or five majority.

 The preliminary movements of the investigation will be awaitaI with marked interest by all political fac tions, as the legislature will have to vote for United States Senator next Tuesday week and Bailey is the Dem ocratic candidate for that position, with enough instructed votes to elect i him.

DRIFTING TO A DEADLOCK.
Nebraska Legislature May Have Hard Time Selecting a Senator.

LINCOLN, NEE, Jan. 13-The out look Is that when the Legislature be- gins balloting for two Senators Tues day 1t will be without preliminary caucus on the part of the Republican majority. That means there will be no election on the first ballot. The failure to hold a caucus is due to the inability of the many senatorial can oldates to agree on rules governing it's deliberations. Republican leaders fear the contest is drifting into a deadlock.
