hit ; Sl
Midsummer dullness has not materialized
ns yet In the wholosnlo trade ot Omnh.i. The
volume of business still continues largo In
most all lines , and the movonunt of goods is
unptucediiiod for the season of the your.
The timely rains ot tl-opast weak , Insuring
n. largo corn crop , have tondoil to stimulate
the fooling of confidence. Tno prospects for
the balance ot the summer nnd fall wore
never moro onoournglng. The Jobbers of
_ , * * , ' Omaha are doing nn enormous business , with
V no Immediate prospect ot a lot-up.
Collections in the country nro vary satis-
factory , which would scum to Indicate that
r the rolnllots nro having n good casli trade.
. In Omaha the reports from the retailers
> t. are lumowhat conflicting. Some dealers re-
* poi t a very fair tradu while a fcood many
others complain cf the dullinss. The amount
of building going on In the city is not large ,
which \vould naturally have a depressing
oUcet upon nny branch of business con
nected with building material. Thus the
rctill lumber dealers , brick men , hardware
aoalcrs , etc. , complain of a slacit business.
i Tlio Money Munition.
While money In general circulation may
nnt bo nnv too plenty , there isanv amount of
It In the liands of the banks nnd loan and
Investment companies. In fact the question
with tbosu companies Is what disposition 'o
make of their surplus funds. Eastern capi
talists who have neon wont to Una peed in
vestments in the west llud thut no ono wauls
thulr money. This state of nITnirs has pro
voked n greit deal of comment In the cast.
The United Utates Investor tojontly
devoted n column to the tlnnnclul situation
in llio .vest. It scorns that It is a general
complaint among n number of western mort
gage companies who nro actively engaged in
the negotiation and salu of loans , that It is
bVcoiiiIng exceedingly dldlcult lo obtain
cholco loans unless lower rates of interest
. " nro granted , the privilege of paying the
principal earlier than five years and ether
concessions.
V This appears to bo n healthy indication
\ nncl loaves three alternatives for the Investor
\nntl companies to accept. First , the lender
Vust content himself with n lower rate of
'Interest n rate consistent with absolute
safotv ; or second , ho must recognl/o that In
insisting on higher rates It Is only fair that
ho should assume whatcvrr eloii.cnt of risk
there may bo as pertains to thepav tncnt of
] irlnclpal or Interest , asking naught from the
company or individual who places his loan
otherwise than with competent management ,
peed fullh und conservatism , or third , and
histlv , tlio company must dispense with
their middlemen or agents , leaving the
investor to deal more direct with the com
pany uud borrower nud tnus save commis
sions.
The causes which directly lead to these
complaints of moro money than borrowers
nro staled to be tlio competition of the lureo
insurance companies who uro offering cheap
lro.cy : , nnd Iho refusal of borrowers to
lonccr pay commissions. But tlioio are
rensons more potent than those which under
lie thu situation , and have foi sumo time been
gradually loading the mortgage business tn
the position it bus now assumed.
First among these may ho cltcJ the reso
lute purpose ot bonowors everywhere in the
west to liquidate their indebtedness , to clear
tip the obligations Incuircd during the
\ \ earlier periods ot development and on which
high talcs of Injcicst nro charged. They
nro tired of paying 8 Mid 10 per cent now
that the 1'icquality butweon tales cast and
west has crown loss. They nro awnio that
they can procure cheaper money , that in
vestors cast are satisfied with lower rates ,
while ou the other hand , they are not news
s tempted to borrow except for nctuul
requirements , not for speculation.
Every farmer is htdglnp , is assuming no
moro obligations than are absolutely ncces
tai-y , nud while his debts sland for his In
vestments nnd not in losses , ho is as loth
to invest as the eastern Investor to loan.
llnnk Clearings.
Ac.aroful examination of the bank clear
ings of Omaha lor the past few months
would bring out some Interesting facts. In
December , IS'JI , thu bank clearings reached
the highest point ot that year , the
total being $21,011,770. In January of the
pioscnt year there was a gain amount
ing to about f.1OUO,000. Then came
lie heavy spring rains of April and May
which threatened to prevent the planting of
torn and which had a most dcprcsninir effect
upon trade. During these months the clear
ings showed a dcciease as compated.vitli
Iho llrst month of Iho year. Still the totals
wcro very much Ui excess of tboso for the
corresponding months of ibOl.
In Juno the prospect wus better , and with
the return of conlidonco thc.ru was a rapid
imptovcmcnt in hunlnafs. The Irndo which
had been held back in April nnd May
en mo on with a rush , nnd tno
dealings reached the highest point touched
in the history of iho city. As tbo Juno 10-
tull business of the city was not ovctly good ,
wlnlo iho Jobbers were rushed to death with
orders , It is safe to nssumo that the increase
lo the clearings was mainly due to the
growth of the Jobbing trado. ' .
July Is usually a dull montn.both In retail
ind Jobbing clicks , nnd it would oo only
natural to expect a decrease in the clearings.
In Ib'Jl ' tlioro was n drop of over ' WO.KOUJ
fiom Juno to July. A clnnro nt'the figures
given below will show th.it July IblU has
proven nn exception to lift general rule. In-
ntcnd of n decrease thoio has been a gain of
about ? 1,000,001) ) as compared with Juno. As
co in pirod with July of last year there has
Loon u gain of over $10,000,000.

Thn Nebraska Hemp andTwIna company's

son's work nnd the factory has boon shut
down. The output of binding twine this
year has benn vcrv largo nnd the quality has
been excellent. Last season's crop of homo ,
consisting of something like n,003 acres , was
n heavy one and the raw material was in line
shnpo for working so that the quality of the
ivvlno made from it this year nns been very
uniform and has sold readily against the
competition ot nil other kinds. ThU season's
work has been proilt.iblo and the prospects
nro Mattering for future prosperity. The
product of the mill this year was about BOO-
Uini pounds of twine , all ot which had been
sold thrco weeks before harvest began , The

Omiilm's Triulo SnlliirliiK : Itccuuse of Delay
In Public U'orUs.
Following is W. II. Uoborson's view of the
local trade situation for July from tbo stand
point of K. G. Dun & Co.'j mercantile
agency , of which ho is the local manager :
Uclail trade in the city Is bzttor than a
year ago , but not as prosperous as was an
ticipated. In many lines trade Is unprofit
able. The smaller retailer * appear to bo
doing better , judging from the condition of
tholr hank accounts , but tbo lack
of public work and ab once of
other larco wage-employing enterprises
has very materially interfotcd with results.
Collections , however , are bettor than condl-
ttot.s would indicate. Small buyers are pav
ing cash moro than formerly. The larger
dry goods houses expect very dull times in
July owing to ubsonco of the baiter class of
'
cus'tomcrs atOistunt summer resorts. They
have not ucon disappointed In this particu
lar.
lar.Koal
Koal estate continues dull and builders say
that Julv has been marked by an ausenco of
work in their lino. The local dealers in
building material of all Hinds Und llttlo
cause of congratulation over present condi
tions or prospects lu the city , though the
demand remains sliong from outsldo points.
Amotifr the jobbers there is a very much
butter feeling.
Grocers have hod a remarkable Julv with
trade 10 to 50 per cent better than nvcniago. .
Hardware continues in good demand with
orders coming in faster than goods can bo
shipped. I'ncus in tholr haidwnro have
tulod lower than n year ago but tbo volume
of snlCH has been largely Increased and with
in a few days prices have stlfTcncd notice
ably. Thu gain in volume ranges from IS to
25 per cent over July , 1SU1. lioavy hard
ware is higher and ttude very satisfactorily
considerably ahead of last yoar.
The dealers In boots and shoos without ex
ception repurt u very maiked improvement
over July , Ih'H , ranging all the way from 20
to : r > per cent increase.
At thu drug houses trade for Julv is
reported no bettor than last year but uolloc
tions are satisfactory und tbo promise for the
jcar Is good.
The clothing mon slate that July trade has
surpilsed them notwithstanding the heat
and their orders for fall goods aio coming in
rapidly. The dealers lu hats and caps report
similar conditions.
Dry goods people find trndo affected un
favorably by tno weather nnd u rather unex
pected fulling off in collections , but the
mouth will show n gain of from \ yt toIU per
cent over ono year ago. However , July is
never a very satisfactory month from which
to form conclusions In this lino.
The liquor business is not very lively and
browois llud tnoir midsummer sales below
expectations and not much encouragement
to hope for Improvement ,
Produce commission dealers have had n
good month. Prices have ranged higher than
n year ago and demand for fruits and vego-
ta'blos ahead of tuo supply. California fruiu
fell oil the last of the month , owing to u glut
ii4-ihtH ! market , but lemons have been in
strong au.iiC.d at high prices , liuttor is 4
to 5 cents higher tt.-u n year ago , with largo
receipt ! nnd strong demand. Kggs are scarce
and high. Potatoes hocln to show the cifcct
of increased receipts from homo supply.
The candy and confectionery trudo is CO
per com bolter than tn July , Ib'Jl.
Leather Hliows no features to oxoito com
mon t.
All the banks have funds in excess of do-
mnnds. Kates are low nnd money Is easy ,
with n slightly improved demand and pios-
pect for moro activity in September encour-
ugintr. The distinguishing feature of Iho
financial situation throughout the montn hai
been the largo Increase of deposits and slack
demand for loans.
At South Omaha business has bcou vary
actlvo throughout tbo month. The largo im

month than packers would like , hut pur-

JtUASONS WHY llll-ii ( : ) OOU'N.
A llrlof Arrnngommit of fuels Indisputably

Baruum & Batloy use twelve mimmoth
water proof tents nnd the main pavllllon Is
litrgo enough to contain all the tents used bv
nny ether show coming to Omaha , and still
Dave ample room for the big hinpodromo

statement that Bnrnum & nallov contract

fact that no show coming hero cxcopt

WHY THEY DON'T PASS.
An Army Ollicor Tolls of the iiiiniiimtlon of
Went I'olnt Applicant * .
Speaking of the largo percentage of
applicants , to the military school at West
Point who fail to pass nn examination entitling -
titling them to enter , a prominent olllcor at
the army hcadquattcrs said ;
' Yes , It is true that n largo percentage of
those who apply for admission to West Point
fail lo obtain ccrtlticatos because their exam
inations are not satlsfae ory. A largo proportion
tion of them have , it Is true , taken tlio
local examination before the board appointed
by the congressmen of the various districts
from which the young men huvo come , but
thcso local examinations are not as thorough
as that through which the applicant Ir.
obliged to pass nt West Point. Then there
are a few of the applicants wno have not
taken any rrolitnlmuy or local examina
tion prior to the examination for
admission to West Polr.t. They have
been appointed bv the congres men of
their districts without any comnctitlvo
effort whatever , und when they como in con
tact with the oxaminlnc board at West
Point they are kuocuod out in short order.
"I think the examinations for admission to
West Point are rigid , but they are perfectly
fair. If a young man fails to pass it is ou
account of imperfect training In thu com
mon branches of our common school
course. The fact that so many fail is , I
think , a sovcro commentary upon the high
school training of our country. Look at
this report of tbo hoard of visitors for
1839 , " and ho teen u largo volume put of his
book case. "Hero are the questions thut
were asked and answered bv borne of tbo
poorest that were admitted. L'ok that over
a moment , " \
In ono of the papers , said to bo poorest that
passed , the following words were spelled in
this manner : Alcahol , countorlit , equivocal ,
Idolotry , foubllostand boundorics. And yet
this applicant was admitted.
"I think' was found to bo the rule , " said
thu oflicer , ' 'that moro applicants fail In
arithmetic and spelling than in anything
else. Just look at some of the answers to
tboso qnojtions in arithmetic. "
Here Is a sample problem A tube can be
filled by a pipe in forty minutes nnd can bo
cmntiuu by a wnsto pipe in sixty
ininutoi. How long will it take
to ( ill tuo tube if both pipes
are left open. Ono young man submitted an
at ray of llgurcs thut he seemed to believe
proved that tno tube would bo lilted in lifty
minutes. Another thought it would tnxo
about eighty minute : , und u third Utrurod
that It would rcquiro just two hours
to flll the tube with both pipes
doing their best.
In history , composition and gcotrraphy the
papers submitted in the report showed many
glurlnt. errors and were sufllcioat to icinovo
any surprise that Iho applicants had not
passed.
