Foreign Cables Are Disappointing
AFTER Domestic Advance.
CROWD Is WAITING AT OPENING
Corn situation ta Dead PROPAGATION,
Receipts Mueh Lower Than
Normal and Demand En-
urelT LackinR.

OMAHA. Dec. .. 1905.
Foreign cables came disappointing and
dtd not show the expected strength after
our. domestic advance OF yesterday.
The local crowd was waiting at the opeu-
ing, but soon Caught the advance and
Nalues were boosted again today.
The corn situation Is a dead proposition,
ana while receipts are much lower than
they should be, the demand Is entirely
gone, both domestic and export.
The wheat market advanced easily with
snow $ report on winter wheat prospects
vas buliish and started a good run Of buy
ing, which the market answe. ed readily.
There WAS an easier feeling at the close
caused by heavy profit-taking, but values
closed above yesterday. December wheat
opened at SAC and closed at 991Ec.
Corn proved a little easier on further
llquiaation in the December option and a
clearing up OF the weather More favorable
Tor a large movement. TIade generally
light and worked both sides u the market.
Decenber corn opened at 55sc and closed
at 55C.
Clesrances were 15s. 900 bushels Of corn
200 bushels OF oats. and wheat and flour
equal to $4,000 bushels.
Liverpool closed unchanged at asd lower
on wheat and unchanged on corn.
Seaboard reported $4,000 bushels of wheat
taken for export.
Primary wheat receipts were $4,000
bushels and shipments were 1890 bushels
against receipts last year OF 1,Ol3,Opo bushels
and shipments Of 6O3, coo bushels.
Corn receipts were 61l 600 bushels and
shipments were 10000 bushels, against re-
cepits last year OF $1,000 bushels and ship
ments OF $500 bushels.

wheat Prices on Sell at
HiRhrat Price of Senann.


CHICAGO. Dec. 2.-wheat prices on the
local exchange today exceeded yesterdays
high record marks, all deliveries selling at
the highest point of the season, with De-
cember at s1J0s. May at H.1Oh and July at
S1.03%.
There was some reaction from the top
on profit taking. but the close was strong
with prices showing net gains for the day
of izc to i4q%c.
Corn closed weak, and oats and p%rovis-
ions easy. Renewed buying by leading
bulls was again the feature in the wheat
pit and the demand from this source held
the market strong all day, despite liberal
realizing sales, which at times caused
slight recessions in prices. Rumore were
current on tho floor OF the exchange that
several Of the bull leaders are endeavoring
TO engineer what promises, IT is said, to
be one OF the most spectacular deals
ever in. the history Of the local board.
Efforts to advance prices were given i'm
petus by the report Of a local crop eX-
pert. which claimed that conditions of the
fall-sown crop Of wheat in this country
on December was the lowest ever re-
corded, being 7S.9, against 90 a year ago.
The report further stated that the condi-
lion was low everywhere except on the
Pacific coast, and that in the states east
OF the Mississippi river the condition is
senationally poor.
Decreased receipts in the northwest, also
helped to inspire bullish sentiment.
The market opened firm, with prices &c
lower to nc higher. December being at
S:.05s d1.052s, and May at N.09%Gl. Os7s.
During the day prices advanced lsc, but
the most OF the gain was lost in the sem
sational realizing. The close, however. was
strong. with December at N.O5lR. May at
Nl0d1.1Os and July az Sl0ShaLO3S.
Clearances OF wheat and flour were equal
to $4,000 bushels.
Corn was weak. The market closed weak
at the lowest point OF the day, with prices
off Ln7sc, final quotations on December
being Gle, and May 62AC.
Oats were weak. The market closed
easy. with prices a shade higher TO lsaho
lower. final quotations on December being
at SAd4ShC, and May b1Ac.
Trade in provisions was quiet. The mar
ket closed easy. with prices IA q7idc

LONDON, Dec. Money was in les

market today and discounts were steady.
Trading on the Stock exchange showed
fair strength early. This strength was
maintained among British securities. con-
soils gaining three-siXteenths but Paris
offerings in the afternoon caused foreiRn-
ers and Ksffrs 10 finish below the best
for the day, japanese bonds continued
strong. American securities, after an adj
justment 10 parity, gathered strength un-
der professional and continental support.
They were helped later in the day by
steady New York buying. The low priced
issues again were prominent, but the sup
port slackened later and the market fin
ished below the best.

CATTLE-Receipts OF cattle were fairly
liberal for the middle Of the week, 269 cars
being reported in, as against Us cars one
week ago and 2l cars two weeks ago. Inc
supply Of good cattle was not overly large,
a considerable proportion of the receipts
being made up OF cow stuff and odds ana
ends Of various kinds. The fact is strictly
good cattle are far from plentiful at the
present time at all markets OF the country.
Hence the very satisfactory prices prevail
ing for all better grades.
The better gTades OF beef steers were
thing, was a little strong on that kind.
On the other hand, less desirable kinds
were a little weak. As a rule statesmen
were quoting 1t a steady market, with COM
mon stuff dun and easier. The most Of
the cattle sold in fair season, but 1t was
late before other kinds were cleaned up.
Cows and heifers generally started out
about steady and the more attractive loads
sold in pretty fair season. There was,
however. no very great activity to the
trade and the market wound up pretty
slow and easier on the common kinds.
The better grades of feeders were in
good demand, the same as they have been
for a number of days back, and they COM
manded fully steady prices. The common
and trashy kinds were as slow and hard
to sell as they have been of late, no one
apparently wanting that kind and it was a
struggle on the part of statesmen to get
rid OF that kind OF stuff.

OF the lost heirs to a Corsican estate. The
heirs may be identified by a peculiar medal
OF which each has half. II Is supposed, also,
that Il is necessary for them to marry. The
search for the holders of the pieces of the
medal starts at the first OF the piece. Into
the action comes the complication that a
walter has appropriated the coat and
papers Of an attorney In the case, and
palming himself off as the real lawyer,
makes "a mess OF the whole affair. Bobby
Barn. plays the waiter, and is a whole
host in himself. But he Is not the whole
show: Elsie Herbert is Just as funny in
her way, and the Ten-English Dancing
Madcaps, the American beauty chorus and
other features all deserve attention. The

RANGER VETERAN
LIKES TO COME BACK

always glad to get back TO the
Panhandle" said John Sullivan, ex-
ranger and veteran Panhandler. this
morning as he greeted old friends on
the street, "It's the finest country
on earth and 1t looks finer every
time come back"
Sullivan was lieutenant in charge
OF the ranger post at Amarillo for
many years and Is widely known as
one Of the most daring and success
ful officers Of the old frontier bat
talon. For the past few years he
mas been away from the Panhandle
and he no wives in Austin where
he was house policeman at the last
session of the legislature. Just at
present he is very actively engaged
IN promoting the interests of his
friend, Judge Irby Dunklin of Fort
Worth, for the office Of associate
Justice OF the court of civil appeals
Tor the second supreme judicial dis
trict and he Is consequently armed
with an assortment OF literature
which he is giving to the general
public.
He is one Of the men who has seen
the Panhandle grow from an almost
trackless waste to its present pros
porous condition. He never loses
his interest in noting the develop
ment that has taken place in Amarll-
10 which he has seen change from
good grazing land into the growing
city 1t is today.
