Wheat Sees Slight Changes During

OMAHA. March 10, 1853
The wheat market saw very slight
changes during The early session and the
general sentiment which has been favoring
the bear side OF late has awakened to the
fact Of being unable to accomplish any
ket and are now waiting for a further ad-
vance before putting out short wheat again.
II was strongly noticeable the failure to
scare the country dealers and the public
generally into selling corn on the recent
sharp break. This cereal Is stronger than
ever now.
Wheat ruled steady. with values a shade
under Yesterday. The tone OF the market
was dull, and while the feeling Is less
faVoring the bulls, little action could be
started and the market closed dull and
featureleEs. May wheat opened at S1.O9i.
and closed at si.O9.
Corn Is still holding steady. with prac-
tcally no change In prices, either cash or
optional The trend OF the market rams
dun, however, but there is no appearance
OF q desire to let bose OF any large guam
titles or actual corn by the country holders.
May corn opened at 62hc and closed at
62j4c.
Primary wheat receipts were So. 900

cut any figure on the market.
Later on adViCes from Chicago Indicated
a weak and lower market and at that point
packers began putting out a few bids, but
they were In all cases as much as lOc-and
In a good many cases more than that
lower as compared with yesterday. Owing
to the reluctance OF statesmen to make any
such concession the morning dragged by
and IL was well along toward midday be-
fore any business Of consequence had been
transacted.
In spite OF all that statesmen could do
buyers remained firm in their determine
began cutting loose pretty freely when
ever they could get within 10c of yester-
ever, the packers were bidding fully l5c
lower and the trade continued dull, but
still about everything was sold before the
close.
sHEEP-Receipts OF sheep were small
this morning, only about fourteen cars be-
ing reported In, which means that there
were not enough 10 create very much in
terest among buyers or make very much
Of a market. Still, there seemed to be a
good demand and the few loads here sold
at prices that looked about like yester-
day. Practically everything was cleaned
up by 3 o'clock in the morning. The same
Mexican lambs which brought $7.35 yester-
day sold at $40 today, with westerns at
SIPS. There were ewes here good enough
The decline yesterday wiped out prac-
tlcslly all the advance or the week on
lambs, leaving the market only about
where It was at the close OF last week.
Sheep. however, have retained some of the
advance, being around l0c higher than last
week. All this means that the market
throughout the week has been In salts
factory condition 80 far as selling interests
were concerned.
