Grain Receipts Are the
liuhteSt for Some Time

Prospects for railroad strike have
already had their effect upon the
movement of grain toward the mar
ket. Omaha receipts today were the
lightest since the new wheat COM
menced to come in. Receipts were;
Wheat. OF; corn, Isl, oats, So carloads.
Wheat prices were 2 cents down to
! cent up, the sales being made at
Sl.57@l.44 Corn sold a fourth off
to a half up, fetching 78@S0K cents
per bushel. Oats were fourth up
to fourth down and sold at 42A@
AZ cents.

points in smaller quantities tor the
local trade, paying the flat distance
scale OF rates, which will make them
no worse off than the cities with
which they seek to compete.
While the flat distance rates put
Omaha at disadvantage as against
some of the other Nebraska cities and
Sioux City, they will give Omaha an
advantage over both Kansas City and
St. Joseph in competing for all Ne
braska and western business.

Cattle-Receipts were very fair for
Wednesday. making total for the three
days this week 1852 head the largest Of
any week for a long time back. The threat
ened strike on Monday, September I. has
made the situation very uncertain in live
stock circles. At Chicago. where packers
evidently want q few cattle for home con-
sumption to tide over the prospective strike
period, prices made wild jump, At Omaha
no great change took place, the trade being
a little slow. with good to choice kinds
steady to stronger and common to medium
kinds steady to easier.
Owing to the fact that the big railroad
lines are giving notice that they will not
receive live stock shipments for delivery
after September .. there 10 an expectation
on all the live stock markets that they
will be out of business with the close of
this week unless the strike for Monday ID
called off,

ly uneven and ehoppy affair, shippers had
considerably broader orders and bought free
ly early, paying prices that were all the
way from strong to. in extreme cases, as
much as a dime higher, and on the bulk
of their purchases looked strong to a nickel
up, They paid as high as 3lo.S5. which
price sets a new high mark for the year TO
date. and equals the record for the yards.
The packer trade opened out Just about
steady, and a good share Of the offerings
sold that way. three of the four outfits
filling their orders at yesterdays prices. one
packer, however, refused to even make a
bid up to late hour In the forenoon, and
as a result there were still twenty. or more
loads OF hogs In the pens after the other
buyers had filled their orders and left the
yards.
Later on In the day one or two packer
buyers went back In the yards and cleaned
up what hogs they were able to get their
own way, shippers and yard traders also
took few late and by noon q fair clear
ance OF the fresh stuff had been made
These late sales were dime lower than
morning prices,
The average market was little different
from yesterday's, the early strength being
offset by the weakness on tho close Bulk
Of the sales showed more of a spread, be-
