Chicago, Jan. Below zero temper
ature led to a rush of buying in the corn
market today and forced up quotations.
The finish, although unsettled, was 1c to
&c net higher with January. 1855 to
s1.S5h and May. s1.S3 to s1.s3h. Oats
gained &c to &c. In provisions the close
varied from zoe decline to Csc advance
The chief incentive for the buying of
corn was the fact that the extreme cold
weather was likely to increase delay to
supplies needed to repenish stocks at
terminals. At the outset uneasness about
car scarcity was also decided bullish
factor. Besides, there was talk Of en-
larged feeding demand Subsequently
however reports were circulated that
Washington authorities had ordered q lib
eral number Of empty cars to be hurried
from the east to help handle grain on
western roads. lull in export demand
for cereals tended likewise to ease the
corn market somewhat in the last part of
the session
Oats were firm throughout the day.
notwithstanding absence OF seaboard In
quiry. European orders were said to have
been filled for the time being.
Provisions advanced with hogs and
grain, but in the late dealings lard turned
weak owing to heavy deliveries on Janu-
airy contracts. although the deliveries
went into strong hands.

One hundred and seventy-hve fed
eral census enumerators of the Sec
ond congressional district, compris-
ing Douglas, Sarpy and Washing

of coming to the United States and
date of naturalization; state whether
owner or renter of home and if home
is mortgaged or free of incumbrance;
occupation.
People Urged to Cooperate.
Mr.. Hopkins suggests that heads
of homes have information written
in memorandum form, so that when
the enumerator calls there will be
as little delay as possible.
We are endeavoring to make this
the best census ever taken, and we
are sure that Omahans, residents OF
Douglas county and of the Second
congressional district will assist us
in every way they ean," said Mr..
Hopkins.
The names, addresses and tele-
phone numbers of census enumer-
ators, showing their respective pre-
cincts, will be published in the news
papers next Sunday. Those who
have knowledge of absent residents
curing the demonstrating period are
requested to notify the enumerators.
The enumeration in Omaha must
be completed within IS days and 80
days are allowed for the country pre-
cincts.
Estimated at 100000.
