OMAHA, March IL. 1873.
After several days OF heavy fluctuation
in the wheat values the market steadied
today, following a nervous and choppy
opening The big leaders assert the situa-
tiOn remains unchanged and claim that
conditions are as strong, or stronger, than
before the recent drop from the high Levels.
The corn situation remains a country
problem, and while receipts continue 10
decrease, the present demand Is hard TO
supply. and this alone IL sustaining prices.
Wheat grew firmer and advanced after
a quick break early in the session. Higher
outside markets and steady support from
tho bull leaders started the bulge and
prices closed strong on the high point for
the day. May wheat opened al LON and
closed al N.8
Corn held steady and became strong
later on light receipts. The cash. article Is
the main feature and is bringing excellent
priCee, more particularly the white variety.
which Is selling at a good premium.

SHEEP-Receipts OF sheep this morning
were very liberal. but one or two trains
were late i'm arriving, so that when the
market opened the number on sale was
by no means excessive. Tho arrivals con-
sisted very largely of lambs, with a fair
sprinEling Of sheep. The quality was about
the same as II has been during the last Few
days, that is, there was a considerable
showing OF pretty decent killers, with more
or less trash sandwiched i'm.
The life and snap characteristic or the
sheep market at this point WAS pretty
generally wanting this morning. Buyers
advices from eastern mutton markets were
most discQuraging, both demand and prices
at the large consuming centers having eN-
perienced a sharp drop. At the same time
buyers were receiving reports from their
houses at other market points predicting
lower prices for the day, With news OF
this character in hand 1t Is hardly neces-
sary to add that buyers we're very back
ward about taking hold and were In no
hurry whatever TO FIJI orders. The result
was a slow and dragging market through
out. Still buyers kept picking up the Of
ferlngs, at least the more desirable loads,
for which they paid prices anywhere from
almost steady to lOc lower. Thus lambs
that brought $40 yesterday, sold today for
$3.50, and yearling at 1886 Yesterday
brought 1915, with yesterdays $h50 weth-
ers at 80 today. As a matter OF course
there may have been some difference In
the quality of the two days shipments.
but, nevertheless, 1t Is very plain that the
market was lower. Good ives sold up as
high as 1886. ,
