THE CONDITION OF TRADE ,
Collections In the Country Bolter Than in
the City ,
BUSINESS SHOWS SOME IMPROVEMENT ,
Local Jobbers Point : a Rood Ilnnlne-H
with I'roHitcotfl PmorliiR n Hllll
Jjnricr Movement
of OoodH.
.There appears to bo nn Improved feeling In
moil lines of business as the fall season ad
vances. This may be duo In part to the con
fidence that nil classes of pcoplo hnvo had all
summer that times would bu bettor with the
coming of fall nnd winter vvoatlior. The real
cause , however , Is to bo found In the abund-
nut crops that have been harvested nnd are
yet to bo harvested. The Ilrst to feel the
effects of the farmers' ptosperlty nro the
country retail dealers , and from them It
spreads to tha Jobbers. Omaha retail dealers
nro not likely to feel the effects of the abnna-
nnt crops so soon ns the others. A jobber re
marking on the Improved fooling among the
country retail dcelcrs said that he could tell
n merchant from last jenr's burnt distilet
ns soon as ho saw htm coming in the door
Last year their faces woio long , this jcur
they mo broad with n satisl'ud Mnllo. All
reports from the country ngrco that the stnto
is just entering upon a season of iniparalcllcd
prosperity
Omaha's Jobbers almost invariably report
n good business during the past week and in
lomo lines there has been a posltiv o r ush.
In hardware tr.ulo is repented as improv
ing. Collections have boon ivnnrkably good
during the first ton days of the month. In
opito of nil previous Indications uails have
dtoppcd , "c
ithout any now features worthy of note ,
the general hardware market continues in
very good shnpo at Now Voile , and icports
nro , as a rule , cheerful and promising As a
rule travelers are meeting about the success
of last season , some doing better , and while
the direct trade from store nt this point has
been somewhat disappointing , dealers suy
the } commence to sco sltfiis of impiovonifciit.
Kvcrvthlni : is ready for trade , stocks in
quantity nnd assortment showing up full
enough to satisfy any call likely to niiso , nnd
white the usual minor dlffoicnccs on cost at
times dovolopono ludlcnl changescamoabaut.
Nails aio Bomowhnt irregulir In movement
for all kinds. Wire is most to bo depended
upon to attiact full orders , butthe ficcdom
of sale they have secured of late is telling a
little , as considerable custom has secured
nbout the ucaltcd quota , otid now stand off
Cut are slow with prices Inclined In buyers'
favor.
Omaha Jobbers of groceries report a very
quiet week so far as the development of now
features Is concerned , but an active week of
trade. The movement of goods has been
large. Sugars have advanced ' 3,0 , with the
demand heavy. Omaha Jobbers have light
stocks of sugar nnd it is said that interior
Jobbers have almost none at all.
At Now York tlio Bulletin remarks that
tnklng the nvcrago run of holders carrying
any line of commodities , and they are woii
inclined to assume an optimistic rather than
the pessimistic viovv of the situation. It { 3
thciofoia natural that omongstrcet operators
In staple groceries the tenor of icports 10-
malns choctful , and every apparent piomts-
inu' and stimulating fcaturo is cited as an ad
ditional supporting clement. It does not ,
however , require any special strain or distor
tion of facts nt the moment to make out ; x
pretty good case for tbo selling side , as the
country call is well on tlmo toeiify predic
tions of increasing vvuuU nbout tins Juncture ,
nnd ns distribution goes on Jobbers must fall
Dack upon bulk lots for n renewal of supplies
nnd assortments. Speculation interferes to
some extent with n full development of the
nctual mctits of coffee , and also has a slight
Influence upon spices , but other goods worn
naturally nnd promptly absorb the benefits
from n glowing legitimate demand. Even
the cooler weather is cited ns n benellcinl
factor to Insplro quicker movements and
stimulate the sala of some articles not ordi
narily in favor under summer heat.
O malm's wholesale dry goods trade has
been very good for n wool back nnd orders
hno been coming about as fast ns tlio bouses
could fill them. Country merchants report a
very satisfactory trade and a general feeling
of confidence prevails nuiong both Jobbers
and rotnllcrs.
In Noiv York the Bulletin in its review of
the week finds that business nt , first hands
lias reached considerable proportions In dry
Roods. There has been the same quiet np-
pcnranco on the spot , owing to the moderate
uttonuanco of buyers from day to day , but
orders by mail nud who have como forward
with regularity , nnd with n tendency to
grow In Individual volume in the direction of
staple cotton goods. This has had some little
Inlluonco on the views of these who aio
carrv ing stocics of brown and bleached cot
tons , but they have drawn moro strength
from the decided aavanco in pi ice of raw
cotton and the upward movement In print
cloths. This combination has imparted n
firmer tone to ttio market nt the close of the
week , chiolly noticeably in the elimination of
nearly all tbo pioviously vveaic spots. Lead
ing makes have been in n comparatively good
position for some tlmo past , and inthcsothcro
is no chango. t\\lth the disappearance of
pressing olloi3 stocks nro loss noticeable , but
in all probability they are much the sumo ns
they woien-week ago. The stocks ot piint
cloths nt Fall River have been considerably
reduced , The advance in prices is , however ,
linully looked upon as permanent vet , as in
the opinion of the trndo here , its maintenance
Is depended upon the manufacturers and
operatives failing to agico unon the wages
question. The demand lor printed fabilcs
lias continued good. The loading novelties
In fall prints nro well sold up , some Doing
taken off the market , nud in other styles
ft bolter business has been done Ulnghnms
and wash fabrics and dress goods in vinious
makes for fall wear aio also in b.rtlsfactory
condition. In now spring fine woven cotton
fabrics there has been hut little done so far ,
although sometime past the date when a
considerable business had been rccoidcd in
such makes last vear. Collections have
shown a slight Improvement in t > omo direc
tions , but irieguhirity is still complained of
The business reports fiom largo dbtilbutlng
centres continue to show nn active business
In progress , and as wholesale buyers mo
as pressing as ever for speedy uellvoiies of
tiielr purchases , stocks rmist still bo running
on nearly starvation limit. The southern
trade has dlsplajod n little moro animation ,
but Is still very backward.

Nr.w YOIIK , Sept. 12. The sleek market this
mornlus opened with a confldoiit feeling and
wltli prices Kenorally small fractions better
than thobO of last ovonliu but there was an
other batch of rumois and stories touching
the condition of HIchiiioud & West Point and
the rumor that a receiver ts Inov-
It , iblo was louder than over. Nalurally ,
as an nccompanl nncnt of these stories , the
boars attacked the stock and bonds with
v Igor right at tlio outset , and the common
stock fell away fiom l'l'4 per cent to 10' per
cent , nhilo the preferred dropped from GO per
cent to 55 per cent. At the s imo tlmo the Col
lateral Trust 5's were pounded down from 5S'i '
percent tool per cent. The effect upon the
rest ot the list was not w hat , It ou jht to have
been , considering the suddenness and force of
thchatnmorliiz , and while Itiirlln ton yielded
1 percent to 9 > per ceht , the others lost only
fractional amounts.
Tlio foreign houses were buyers as a rule ,
while there w.is 301110 sclllni ; for western ac
count and the local tridiug element wcro

The best prices woie not fully maiut lined ,

Nnvv YOIIK. Fopt. 12.-Plio 1'ost says : At
leastonu winning Inference can bo drawn
from this unpleasant Incident , whatever the
outcome may bo It was apparent several
months ago that the chief discouragement ex
isting both In tlio Block market and
IiiG ininy rallroid oltclcs was duo
to the fact that Iho companies
could neither make the now bonds nor secure ,
long tlmo loan on advantageous terms. The
financial outlook has Improved materially
slnco then ; but the now bonds hivn not ap
peared , and the tlmo loans , Instead of being
more read fly carried/ have become In several
cases In Hating burdens , through the un
easy action of the banners by whom float
ing dubls were supported. This very
plain fact shows an important element In the
situation which is certain to embarrass and
restrain an upward movement. What Its do-
toirliu Inlluonco on the iiuruut will bo In the
and In not easy to 'coulee ' turo If It loads
merely tooiutlous and Intelligent discrimina
tion In oiitsldo liii ) Inj ; qf htouks , there will bo
perhaps llttlo occasion lo regret Its appour-

The conversion of the ( Jhlncso to Chris

However this may bo it is ceitam that Neb
raska Is going to send out n number of
enthusiastic missiou.ulos to labor with the
cunning child of the otiont upon the subject
of moiallty and eternal sahatiou.
About two years ago something lilca a
missionary wave sti tick the prominent Young
Men's Christian association workers of
Kunsa * and JJobtaskaitnd tho/oal for fotclmi
missionary nork undeV\\ont a marked change
throughout the \\ost and paitlculuily in the
states named.
Mr. Fisher , the general secretary of Kansas
and Mr N&sh , the gonctal secretary of Neb-
ra ka , took hold of the \\otlc with gtcat
energy and lost no opportunity to tiigo upon
Chtiblian joung men and women the neces
sity of ( living themselves up to missionary
work. Their efforts ate now bringing forth
fruit. In neatly ovetv countu wheto thoto

paring to enter the woilc of a foieign

They claim that in many instances the veiy

abandon the field neater homo whoio tliofr
