Drop in Price Stimulates
Demand-Eggs Show
Slight Advance.

A drop in the price of strawberries
was the most striking thing in the local
produce market this morning. Last
week berries were held at 50 per crate
and in good demand at that price. This
morning sI.25 was asked and the market
was flooded with good berries from
every section of the berry districts
While the demand remained brisk. there
were considerably more berries on the
market than could be disposed Of
The price OF eggs showed d slight ad-
vance In large lots % cents was asked
but the buyer of a dozen was compelled
TO pay from q cents to 80 cents. All
of the nearby egg producers displayed
large supplies and the price asked was
% cents almost uniformly.
Blackberries were little more plenti-
full this morning, and the price broke
from 20 to IS cents per quart String
beans brought % cents to 20 cents the
peck.

Walters Hold Up
Field Club at the
Bankers Dinner
Squeeze Extra Dollar Per Man, Find
ing They Have Club by
Short Hair.

Sixty colored walters successfully worked
the Field club for 500 on the occasion Of
the Inner to the Nebraska X as
ISOLATION. AS a result there are some miss
ing colored faces at the club.
Just before the dinner was to be served
to the assembled and hungry visitors 1t
became known hat a Strike" was on.
Some Of the extra help" employed on
ceived the bright idea that they ha the
club by the short hair, as it were. The
walters were to receive $40 for the even
ing's work and the sum demanded was
$40. 81 more.
The head waiter and the steward held a
hurried conference and then put the mat
ter up to Acting President Sherraden n
the house committee.
Nothing TO do but submit to the hold
up was the verdict. But the head
waiter was told to discharge the ringieaders
the next day.
I'VE ought to rave been prepared for
a trick Of this kind" said President sher-
raden. They tried the same game last
year at the banquet for the National Live
Stock exchange. II we had had a few
more club members on hand we would have
told the whole crew to chase itself and
waited on the tables ourselves. When
William Hughes, secretary of the Bankers
association heard later of the 'hold-up,' he
said that If he had known of II he could

Union Pacific slasheS Rates for Ak

Low Fare and Attractive Entertain
ment VIII Combine 60 Make
Omaha Mecca for More q
eIers Than Ever Before.

e. L. Lomax, general passenger agent OF
the Union Pacific, announces that the
Union Pacific has decided to give Omaha
and Ak-sar-Ben a cent n mile rate for the
fall festivities, or one fare for the round
trip, from all points In Nebraska
Last year other Nebraska lines gave a
rate OF a fare and a halt and the Union
Pacific followed with an announcement OF
a cent a mile. This year all other Me-
braska lines have arranged for a rate OF q
fare and a half, and now comes the Union
Pacific with the announcement OF q fare
for the round trip. The dates on which
the Union Pacific rates are effective are
October / to s, inclusive, Monday to FRI
day OF the big week. These low rates win
undoubtedly bring thousands to Omaha, as
reduced rates are always attractive, and
the big show Omaha has to offer must be
considered.
Omaha now offers more attractions to
visitors than ever before during the fau
festivities. The shows on the Kings High
way will be Of a higher order. the cleo
trical parade win be Of the usual high
class, the military pageant will be larger

a buyer to the pens in the big stock yards
on the stock; the buyer, II suited, makes a
bid, The chances are that the salesman will
take several buyers to look over the pens and,
on hearing the one most satisfactory bid, soon
closes the deal.
I'm weigh you that PEN the salesman
will perhaps remark in tn yernacular of the
yards. All of which means that he will ac-
cept the buyers bid and that the stock shall
be weighed out to him at so much a hundred.
This question Of price is another study.
The layman gains little from reading on the
technical market report such quotations as
these: Good to choice cornfed steers, $500
@7.5O; fair to good cornfed steers, $4,000
700; common to fair cornfed steers, S4.5OQ
$40"
Those figures are a composite representa-
ton of the price and demand for certain
grades of cattle, a picture of the market, but
they do not mean that there is any sharp line
of demarcation. The real price on cattle is
made in the pens by the buyer and seller.
Quite possibly no single animal in the yards
would be found to fit exactly under any quota
ton. But the cattle broker knows he has his
finger on the pulse of the trade constantly and
is constantly receiving reports which, tech
nical as they are, spell the whole story to him.
So expert are these buyers and sellers that
the Weighing is almost a matter Of form.

Of supply and demand 1t is his to know
when, where, why and how best to dispose Of
any class Of stock-always at the highest
figure possible.
Suppose a shipment Of ten carloads of cat
tie, starting perhaps west of Laramie, comes
rumbling and screeching around the curves
into the yards of South Omaha before day
light this morning. The sleepy-eyed stockman
tumbling out of the caboose in the face Of
this, one of the greatest of the worlds mar
kets, would find himself bewildered and con-
fused past redemption. The magnitude and
completely of the mart would leave him help
less. None but the commission man, the
specialist, may know where to sell each grade
and kind Of stock. For example, he remem-
bers that one buyer is seeking heavy COWS,
while another will be a better bidder on thin
or Gamer stuff" then another wants fn-
ished beef, prime cattle. The same condition
obtains OIL the hog and sheep markets.
The commission dealer is there to solve
the stockran's problem of converting flesh
into currency. When a shipment of cattle
starts on the journey to the abattoir it is con-
signed to some commission man. The stock
the yards; he need not see it again and some
hours later can step around to the office of his
agent and receive a check for his
delivery.

mission firms is as likely 80 be found in the
pens as at his office. Many, in fact most, COM
mission men are experts in some line of the
trade. Each firm Of pretension has its expert
for practically every grade of stock that goes
through the yards here. There are men who
do nothing but buy or sell one certain grade
of beef cattle, another for hogs, while yet an
other employe or member of the firm will be
expert in the marketing of sheep.
The commission man of today is active not
only as a selling agent, but as a buyer for his
clients. Many of the most prosperous feed
ers rely absolutely on their commission agent
for the stock tattened in their feed yards.
Thousands Of the stockmen owe their sue
cesses to financial aid received by and through
the commission man. The feeding business
of the past was done on the commission mans
money and there are millionaires of today
who owe all to the loan Of a few years back.
Every commission agent keeps in touch
with desirable punches Of stock all over his
tributary territory, so that when the demand
comes he as middleman will be able to get the
man who would sell into contact with the man
who would buy.
Through the exchanges the commission
agents look for all possible improvements in
the live stock industry. Better breeding of
cattle, the prevention of disease, legislation.
favorable or adverse, all these are matters OF
important interest to the commission man as
affecting the life Of his trade.
