the opening and twenty more were due to
show up later
Lambs were plentiful. with quality very
good on an average. This phase OF receipts
failed to stimulate inquiry, however, and
the best. as we'll as the poorest offerings
cleared with more OF less difficulty Prices
averaged lower as a rule, bulk Of sales
dropping to figures about 10 c under those of
yesterday. Strictly choice grades, still in
the fleece, sold at and around $50, but
plain heavy strings are demanded at big
discounts, $500 and less buying stock OF

Sheep ruled steady in spots the general
situation appearing bearish. Best kinds

Wall Street Interested in Improve
ment Of Hartman System.
SHOWS EXISTING CONFIDENCE
Earnings OF United states steel Cor
pOration for Year Make Favor
able Comparison with Pre-
vioua Years.

NEW YORK. Jan. 3i.-The financial com
munity was interested chiefly today In the
announcement that the Hartman COM
panies would expend 100000 in the i'm
provement OF that system IN completing
the double tracking OF the lines from the
Missouri river to San Francisco and I'm
Short Line.
The decision Of the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific arrangements to under
take so important a project at this time
was accepted as a significant expression
OF confidence in present and prospective
The Hartman project and the quarterly
report Of the United States Steel corpora
ton which came out after the close OF the
market were the noteworthy features Of
the day. The statement Of the steel cor
poration for the final quarter of 1910 shows
earnings Of S26.ssl.0oO. with net earnings
At first the statement would seem dis
appointing, I'm that the gross showing for
the month was several millions below eX-
pectations, this being partly due to the
low returns for the last month Of the
year. Earnings for the year however, ag-
gregate &1H, 1A00O, making a very favor
able comparison with those of 1909 and
1903, which were H3l,49l,OOo and Sl, S5'OOO'
Strength Of the Hin stocks was asso-
ciated with developments of a favorable
nature in the affairs of that system, in
Guiding the practical completion Of the
subsidiary line in Washington and Ore
gon. owned Jointly by the Northern Pa
cific and Great Northern, which is ex-
pected to add materially to the resources
of these companies.
Covering by short interests was a ma
terial factor in todays rise in prices and
was due no doubt to uneasiness over the
readiness with which certain active is
sues have been absorbed recently. This
is especially true OF Southern Pacific,
Northern Pacific United States Steel and
Reading.
Erie's report showed an increase in
operating income Of $4,000, due, however,
to reduction of operating expenses, the
gross revenue having fallen off slightly.
The Omaha line reported an increase OF
Sl45, 900 in net revenues for last month

CATTLE-The cattle yards this morning
presented a most animated appearance. Re
ceipts were very large, in fact the largest
and as a number OF trains were late the re-
ceipts came strinEtnE in all the forenoon.
At the same time the attendance OF stock
men from the country was larger than II
has been any day in long time back. The
weather, being mild and Summertime, every
one was out in the yards and the elevated
walks were thronged with men watching
the progress of the days trade.
The market opened slow, buyers as
usual when a good many cattle are re-
ported back were inclined to move
cautiously until the receipts were all In
sight when, as a matter OF course, they
would have larger number OF cattle from
which to make selections. Thus the early
market was slow and dull and the fore
noon was we'll advanced before enough cat
tie had actually changed hands to make
any real test of values.
As the morning advanced 1t became APP
parent that buyers were determined TO
make the most of the large receipts to
force a lower range of prices. The result
was more or less dullnes TO the trade
throughout the day, with beef steers gener-
ally 1Oc lower.
tremely large supply, sold 10c lower and in
many cases with the less desirable kinds
15Q25c lower. Good feeders, on the other
hand, were about steady, but the common
to medium kinds and light thin stockers
were generally a little lower.

In support OF his resolution Mr.. Lynch

JANUARY BANK CLEARINGS LOW
Bankers Say that the Farmers Are
Not shipping strong a.
Last Year.

Bank clearings in Omaha In the month
Of January totaled $61.4Ss. 500. This amount
although less than the Same month OF last
year, is very creditable, the bankers think
Last year the clearings for January
amounted to $68 .O6s.
One Of the reasons given for the de-
creased amount ia the extreme mildness Of
the winter which has kept the farmers
products, still in storage in his barns. His
cattle he is also having no trouble at all
in keeping right on the farm and this nat
urally decreases the amount OF the bank
clearings.

Rains on Pacific Coast and in south

OMAHA. Jan. Si-The eastern disturbance
continues TO move slowly off the upper At
lantic coast. An area Of low pressure eX-
tends from the Pacific coast east over the
mountains to the central valleys and Is
accompanied by rains on the Pacific slope
and I'm the southwest, and is causing gem
orally cloudy and somewhat unsettled
weather throughout the mountains and east
over the valleys. The movement OF the
eastern disturbance off the upper Atlantic
coast is followed by much colder weather
in the Atlantic states, and temperatures
are lower everywhere east OF the iMssis-
sissipi river, except in the upper lake
region. The weather is very much
warmer in the upper lage region, the
upper Mississippi and Missouri valleys, and
is warmer generally west OF the noun
tain region. An area of high pressure, ac-
companied by a rapid and decided fall In
temperature, is moving over the extreme
northwest, and the extension OF this high
down over the valleys will bring colder
weather to this vicinity by Wednesday, with
probably fair tonight and Wednesday.
