sHEEP-In the neighborhood OF a dozen
loads OF sheep were received this morning
and packers were out early buying up such
strings OF killers as they needed. A good,
active trade resulted and the pens were
cleared early at prices strong to possibly
some higher than yesterday. Wethers sold
ct S68 and $3.50, ewes realized 5000 and
heavy yearlings changed hands at sis.
While the supply Of lambs wa rather
mcager than otherwise, buyers did not APP
pear to be very anxious for this class Of
stock and the tone to trade was somewhat
caster, hut there was little positive chanye
in values one way or the other. A small
string Of fed westerns sold at $40 and II
would take something strictly choice to
command $3.50.
The weeks supply OF live mutton thus
far foots up to a total OF 10000 head, as
compared with almost 5000 head for the
same days last week and over 26,Oo0 head
for the same period Of last year. 1t will
be readily seen that the curtailment OF
supply has resulted In a marked improve
mont OF prices by glancing at the quota
tons and sales given below; In fact, all OF
the previous weeks loss has been re-
gained during the last few days and prices
are in the same notches that they were
net advance on all classes of killers for
the week is Just about Af150c.

DISPOSITION.


CATTLE-Receipts OF cattle were very
moderate this morning, only 12 cars being
reported in, making the total for the five
days 16, 200 head, which shows a falling off
of ever 5000 head, as compared with the
days last week. In spite Of the fact
that receipts were moderate they were
condition of the trade. All other markets
were reported as very slow and weak and
buyers here were accordingly disposed to
take their time and AWAIT further infor-
nation from other selling points before do
Ing very much business. Thus 1t happened
that 1t was 10 o'clock In the morning before
buyers even went out into the yards and
considerable later than hat before very
much business was transacted.
When buyers and sellers finally got to-
gether on a trading basis the market was
not 80 bad after all. Beef steers were gen.
orally quoted as weak to 1Oc lower, but the
quality was very ommon there being no
very desirable killers in sight and abso-
lutely nothing that could \be graded as
slow, the most of the cattle changed hands
in fair season in the morning.
Cows ard heifers were also slow to 10c
lower, and while backward about selling,
were still all disposed of In reasonable
season. The cause for the decline was very
plainly the unfayorable advices from east
There were not enough feeders to cut
very much figure in the trade, but what
Few there were sold in about the same

NEWYORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Speculative Sentiment Remains IN
settled.
PRICES HIGHER AT OPENING
Bears successfully Attack Copper
and Smelling Group-ERrIy Rise
soon Drives Bargain Hunt
eFs from Market.

NEW YORK, Feb. A-Speculative senti-
ment remained much unsettled today as
an after-effect OF the violent declines eff
fected In yesterdays market. There was
no resumption Of the heavy liquidation
which broke the market yesterday and this
left the way open to some recovery. The
bear interest, left uncovered after such a
spasm as has occurred this week, insures
a potential demand for stocks sufficient
to carry prices away from the low level.
has occurred points to a elimination Of an
ordinary market cycle. Foreigners ex-
pressed this view of the situation before
business resumed on the New York Stock
exchange by advancing the prices Of Amer
leans in that market. II was not surpris-
ing, therefore, that a rush Of bears to
cover shorts should have made opening
prices well above last nights closing.
The violence of these movements proved
disconcertins to all but the most highly
speculative element in the market and the
recovery eliminated some of the substan-
tlal buying which was begun at the lower
any signs OF that sort appeared and made
fresh attacks. These attacks we're most
effective in the copper group and espe-
cially American Smelling. The position OF
the proposed merger, as well as the re-
cent statement of annual earnings Of the
company, were assigned as reasons for Its
Vu~lnerability.
The tone OF speculative sentiment was
kept shifting in that way throughout the
day. The preliminary estimates of the
weeks currency movement pointed to an
other notable addition to the surplus re-
serve Of the banks. The likelihood OF loan
contraction to be shown in consequence
Of the heavy stock market liquidation
added to this probability. This had It's
influence in checking the liquidation by
the prospect that the banks would be ex-
perienclng difficulty before long in finding
employment for their surplus funds. One

progress at the closing, which was strong,
with net gains for most stocks.

CHICAGO, Feb. ABRAMS ruled lower to-
day, wheat leading in the decline under
heavy selling pressure. Provisions after
showing a little strength also fell off.
Trading in wheat started with a mod
crate decline, which was followed by a
slight rally despite the preponderance Of
bearish factors, notably foreign weakness,
large arrival and a slow demand for
cash wheat. The temporary strength was

&c to INC, the decline being stayed at
different points by buying activity. May
retrodraded from $.l0Ss@I .1oh to s1.09h@

shorter fall. The close was re removed
from the low points of the day, with May
at A.Os4Ql.o9%, hQ1c lower than the final
figures yesterday. X.
May corn prices suffered In comparison
with the July figures. EARLY symptoms of
strength which carried May up to 66hc
were unable to successfully resist the
downward trend induced by weakness in
the demand for cash corn. Through most
of the session July prices kept above May,
the distant month ~fluctuating from nc to
NC, while May fell off %@hc from the
high point. All the futures made a weak

BRAcED BY LIGHT RECEIPTS
OMAHA, Jan. 4, 1910.


Lower cables gave the wheat market an
easy opening. The decline was stretched,
however, when northwestern receipts were
reported lighter. There was not much ac-
tlon to the market as neither side had any
influencing news to induce buying OF sell
ing.
Receipts OF corn continue good and stocks
are increasing rapidly, The demand Is very
slow and cash values are easier and on the
decline.
Wheat was affected by the lower cables
and bearish traders sold the option OF;
Cash stuff was weak and lower on good
receipts and light demand. The buying
power was decidedly out of the market.
Corn eased off sharply, showing more
weakness after the weak cash market. ke-
ceipts have been too liberal and the ship
ping demand too light to hold values at
thoir present level.
Primary wheat receipts. were 10000 bu.
and shipments were 233.0W bu.. against re-
ceipts last year Of $4,000 bu. and mp
ments OF 214,OOO bu.
Primary corn receipts were $4,000 bu, ana
shipments we're AIS, 900 bu., against receipts

HoGS-Lower messages from all leading
ton a very bearish aspect. The best bids
~obtainable on the early market came from
shippers and were just about a dime lower
than yesterdays general trade. Even at
this decline the demand was rather limited
and only the best hogs were wanted. Pack
ers did not appear in the alleys until after
the big bulk Of the receipts had been
yarded and most buyers for local concerns
claimed that their instructions were 60
buy their droves on a l5c low or basis. IA
a result, there was little activity to trade,
but what few hogs changed hands during
later rounds generally showed the full de-
cline.
While the trade was slow, the hogs kept
changing hands and in the end were prac-
tically all disposed OF. The general market
might be summed UP as l0al5c lower, with
the bulk Of the hogs selling around S.. 2OQ
1856 and on up as high as $S46.
