THE CONDITION OF TRADE
No Important Changes Brought Out Dur
ing the Week.
THE MOVEMENT OF GOODS VERY FAIR
11 n On en Tklcn Generally llcnllzo That the
Future of Tr.ido Depend * Almntt I'.n-
tlrcly Upon llio U'cathcr Nebras
ka' * Prospects Good.
There is not very much of Importance to
va.v regarding the trade situation , conditions
remaining very much the same as detailed a
woult npo. The movement of goods In a Job-
bint ; way from this point Is fair on an nvcr-
ngo , some lines being reported quite good ,
while others are slow. Ono thing may ba
asserted with a considerable dogroa of pasl-
tlveness , and that U , taking Into considera
tion the general conditions prevailing In this
territory , trade Is all that could bo expected.
The weather clerk appears to hold the key
to the situation , .mid will hold It for the
balanceof the season. During the' early
spring ivhon the crops were being frcaly
marketed and money was plenty in the
pockets of the f armors , the retail trade of the
country \viia stimulated to an extent that led
many merchants 10 stock UD hoavlly with
goods.Vlth tbo coming of the period of
circuit- continuous rainfall , menacing
the season's crops , U.ls tendency toward
literal buying was superseded by n spirit of
caution which has taken strong hold upon
, the trado. Merchants nro not likely to be-
'como free buyer * again until they have every
assurance tlr t tlicro can bo no crop failures ,
for this reason it Is not surprising that trade
can bo uuotcd ns only fair , in fact It is a sub-
Jnrt for congratulation that it U not posi
tively dulL
An ieunrds Iho outlook , that has certainly
brightened visibly during the past six days.
In the western part of the Ktata nil reports
ngrco that thus lur everything is looking well
and tbo farmers tmvo promise of an abund
ant crop. In the eastern portion of the
Btato , where there has been a hcavlur fall of
rnln , ana where the Roll is less calculated to
tnuuro t-xcosslvo moisture , the farm work
is progressing well and tbo farmers them
selves uro apparently sanguine of'getting in
n reasonably largo acrmgo of corn with fair
prospects of growing n crop. This would
Bcera to show that Nebraska is in a fair way
to crow another peed crop of corn , and the
prospects arc certainly boiler than they
have been on some previous years when
good crops liuvo resulted.
There is also another feature to tbo situa
tion which bodes good to Nebraska. All
reports agree that it is practically
Impossible to grow anything like a
full crop In the other corn states
nnd tbo consequent shortage in this cereal
will enable Nebraska farmers to obtain un
usually high prices for what corn they grow.
This Is the basis for the assertion heard so
Ircquently of lute among business mcu that
the prospects for Nebraska are bolter than
for any other western state.
The retail trade of Omaha Is fair ,
though nothing has occurred to put
into it any great amount of life.
The coming fmonth gives creator prom
ise of activity in this direction owing to the
number of attractions that will bo in the
city which will bring In many
visitors. Ills also anticipated that the com
mencement of public improvements , such as
paving , oic. , will bo of material advantage to
the retail trade , ai it will put In to circulation
a Inrgo amount of money.
The produce markets have avcragod
noubt steady during the past week
and no especially Important , feature has
been brought forward. Wbilo prices have
shown little fluctuation , they have at tbo
same lima been ( airly strong and upon tbo
whole satisfactory.

The cattle trade for tbo past week has been
In inuny respects u repetition of thu week
previous. That Is whllo prices have shown
Jitllo or no llnctuiillon the tone has been
Mron ; und tbo tendency decidedly upward.
Receipts , while not us heavy us last week by
ul out I.M3 head , were nearly double the n-Jiii-
Ler received hero the llrst week of Juno lust
year. The most urjicut Inquiry Is for fat.
lUlit and nicdliiiii wulght steers. Both local
killers nnd thlppors want them nnd prices
Imvu ruled linn nil the week. Toward the
liiltor part of the week Ib'uro has been moro
llfo mill Ktiun th to the trade lu heavy cuttle.
Good lo choice medium mid heavy cattle nro
EDling considerably stronger thuii durliie the
curly part of the week , but rouch , course , un
finished heavy onttlu nro hard to mover ex
cept at wnut look like very low prices. There
lius beer , a slronguctlvo market all week for
cows und mixed stock , nnd everything : In I Ills
line lint MIOWM n substantial advance , The
trade in Mockers and feeders has been char
acterized by extreme dullness , nnd u very
limited number of sales Imvo been miule ,
OirerliiRS havit been rather llqlit , but they
hlivo upparontly been about oijuul to the de-
munil. UlKht good stock Is solllnij us well us
It hns uny tlmo this spring , but tliero is vor/
little call for Inferior or common stuff , und.
prices continue to shade lower.
The past six ( lays' receipts of boss , a > ,400
bond , have been Iho heaviest In the history of
the yard * . During the early purt of the wcok
with a linn provision market tnidlnt wns
uctlvo und prices well maintained , but us thu
huavy runs kupt up und Iho provision irado
cased off fcomowhut prices broke , although
not BO badly us might have been cxpuctod
under the circumstances. Thu decline ) hns
been from lie to ' 'Oc. There has been a markoil
fulling off In Iho shipping demand , but this
bus been moro Ihnn counterbalanced by the
true buylnx of local hauuis , und the mnrket
bus shown Itself just us capable to take cure
of IK.OOO hogs per week us 30.000 per WCOK.
Nothing bus httppancd to break the monotony

STOPPED A SPECIAL MASTER
Judga Hopevrell Befnsea to Grant a De

pcrlrnco n .Mcrcliint Prince
Other Court Dulnci.
Some days ago Tnc Bun lot the public on
to somoof the Inshlo facts regarding special
master commlssioiion nnd the manner in
which some of them handled foreclosure ] .
Most of the reputable attorneys declared
that the facts were as TUB Her. staled , nnd
that in many Instances the special master
commissioner wus a irnud of the tint water.
Those attorneys who do the special master
act and make It their business declared in
the most cmphnllo terms that TUB Ur.u
willfully Hod nnd tint tb.3 artloles upon the
subject wcro inspired by malicious persons.
A lllllo Incident occurred IP Judge Hope-
well's court yesterday , which showed that
Tim DBS was correct when It staled Umlas a
rule tbo special manor commissioner was a
fraud ; that UU sales were secretly
rnado and th.it ho was employed
ulrcctly in the Interest of the attorney wbo
had the foreclosure of the mortgage.
On the equity ttocket thcro Is n case
entitled French against .Atkinson. Taoro Is
nothing rouaritablo about Ibis tltlo. The
case was lo secure a deficiency Judgment on
a foreclosure. Dut to iha history of the
case.
case.Not many moons ago. ono Cocnran owned n
piece of property lu tbo city. . This bo sold
to AtKlnson. taking notes an part
payment , which lu turn was sold to
French , lu duo course of tlmo the
notes matured , but Atkinson was unable to
pay. Then the mortgage was placet ) in
the hands ot Cochrun for foreclosure. The
proceedings wcro brought and nt his
request ho was appointed special
muster commissioner. The sale- was duly
made , but only two or three parsons ap
peared , and tbU same special master com
missioner bid the property In for French for
about half of Us vnluc. as the appraisement
had been fixed boforohand. The next move
was for a confirmation ot sale ,
to bo followed up by a request for a deficiency
Judgment by the sumo man wbo owned the
property , by the same man who was tbo
special master commissioner , by tbo same
man was the atlornoy for French , and by the
same man who bid' the property In ttt the
special matter commissioner's sale.
Judge Hopowoll stated that ho had hoard
couildcrablo complaint about the manner
in which special master commissioners bad
conducted their business and that bo should

a question upon which the Jury had not been

ton hud been torn Irotu a tablet found In

The Jurors were permitted to mnko a careful -
ful examination of the letter and ibo tablet
and all the documentary proof In tbo case in

shoot ot paper were carefully scrutinized
under a magnifying glass by tbo Jurors. .
Another question the Jurors wanted moro
thoroughly solved was whuthoror not Postal
Inspector Hall wns on Ibo train every time
that the letters were "nipped. "
There appeared to bo only three of the
Jurors whoso minds wcro not made up with
regard to tbo matter.
AJtor looking o'vcr the evidence carefully
the Jury again retired to dobalo and decide
upon tbo proper verdict to bo presented.
