Tim local business situation haa failed to
ihovr any Improvement during the past
week and general conditions are practically
unchanged. The jobbers are doing a fair
business In most lines and qullo an actlvo
business In somo. Thus the hardware trade
has been moderate , whllo In the Una of
groceries there has been a good deal of ac
tivity. The loss of a largo proportion of the
fruit and early vegetable crops from the late
frosts naturally Increases the demand for
certain lines of groceries , as canned goods ,
dried fruits , etc.
The dry goods houses are reporting a
heavier trade than a year ago. The Indi
vidual orders received by them Is not largo ,
but the number ot orders Is so great that the
total volume Is ahead of last year. As has
been already pointed out , this Is duo to an
Increase In the number ot customers who
have turned tholr trade to Omaha. The
Chlcaga Dry Goods Heporter has been mak
ing a careful Investigation ot the situation In
the west and arrives at the same conclusion ,
' that Is , that Bomo of the smaller Jobbing
centers have had an Increased business as a
result of the depression , explained because
the trade of their adjoining territory have
been Induced by the prevailing conditions to
buy small orders frequently from the nearest
market rather than take the risks and
trouble of larger purchases from longer dis
tances. Undoubtedly this trade has been
drawn from the larger Jobbing centers of the
western circuit. The latter , however , have
recouped themselves In exactly the same
manner from trade which formerly went di
rect to the cast , and who have been per
suaded to stop oft this season In Chicago or
St. Louts.
Omaha has taken much trade that for
merly went to Chicago , and the latter city
has added to the list of her customers many
buyers who formerly went to 'Now York.
Naturally enough the extreme eastern
cltlos. having no territory from which to
make up their losses In the west , are com
plaining the most bitterly of dull times.
The publication referred to above esti
mates that western dry goods Jobbers as a
whole have experienced a decrease In the
volume of business amounting to 15 per
cent from last spring , which was , however ,
a phenomenal season for several reasons.
Blnce prices have decreased at least on an
avertijzo of 10 per cent It will bo seen that
the volume of goods transferred Is but
slightly less than ordinary. At the same
tlmo the dry goods Jobbers have marketed
tholr stocks exceptionally close. A studied
effort has been made to clean up carried
over goods , and this has been done often
regardless of prices. Buyers have been very
chary about placing orders. As a result of
this policy stocks In warehouses in the west
are undoubtedly 25 to 50 per cent lower than
last year at this tlmo.
The opinion Is general that a settlement
of the tariff agitation Is needed to restore
confidence , without which no return to old-
time conditions can bo expected.
The hope for summer and fall trade Is still
very largely dominated by crop prospects.
Fortunately the crop outlook Is a little
brighter Just t.c present , owing to the recent
nhpwers. Stocks In tho.hands of retailers
have been so 'depleted' ' by' Iho hand to
. , mouth policy of buying , Inaugurated during
f the panic times of last year , that trade
In a jobbing way must feel the Influence-
unless 'cropjillllng weather takes away the
purchasing power from the farmers.
THE BANKS.
Oma'Aa's decrease In the matter of clear
ings lias shown a decided falling off during
the past six days , as was predicted would
\ > a the case a week ago. This Is due not
to any special Improvement In the volume of
trade , but to the fact that the dull times
had reached Omaha In Juno last , year and
that a , heavy drop In the clearings took
place at that time. Consequently a com
parison between the clearings of the present
tlmo with Juno of lost year does not show
the largo decrease noted a month ago.
Omaha continues to make a good showing
In the list of clearing house cities. Whllo
there has been a decrease of 22 per cent In
the clearings of the whole country , Omaha
shows a decrease of only 10 per cent. Among
other western cities Minneapolis has de
creased In clearings 15 per cent. St. Paul 30
per cent , Denver 48 per cent , St. Joseph 34
per cent , Kansas City 5.7 per cent nnd Sioux
City 18 per cent.
The clearings for each day of tha past
week nt Omaha have been as follows :
Monday f 1,073,631.11
Tuesday , 9G0.2S8.G7
Wednesday 90G.fi05.73
Thursday 902.101.65
Friday 8CS.375.86
Saturday 1.012.298.81
Total $5.720,101.73
K The continued export ot gold from the
United States renders the location of the
gold remaining In the country a matter of
Interest. On June 1 the official treasury
estimate of the stock ot gold In the United
States was $065,000,000. According to the
last 1 > anlc statement , gold , gold coin , treasury

y Mr , W. II. Robprson , manager of n. C.
Dm ; Si Co. . speaklnff ot trade In Omaha ,
lays ;
"Tho sensation of the week wan produced
by the Nudden collapse of the liouso of
Bterlo & AValker , St. Joseph , Mo. Al
though It docs not necessarily affect un
favorably nny business hotmo In Omaha ,
yet the name of D. M. Sleelu Is as old as
Missouri river trade , and the houses ho
litis established from time to time are
landmarks In the development of the
Mli-tsoiirl river jobbing trade. Jleslnnlng
In liitHlno.ss tlfty years UKO , he has been a
conspicuous tlgure in thla Hecllon ever
elnco. Much regret la felt that dlsuater
Hhould have overtaken him In his old ago ,
ami the hope Is freely exprwucd that no
may not only pay every dollar , but havt
a comfortable competency left.
"The two recent heavy failures In St.
Joseph brlnir to mind the fact that with
the exception , of the seed house of Phh
Stlmmel , It la niw within ten days of a.
year slnco this city has experienced any
lailura of coiiKcauenco. Iaat Juno tuo
uholesalo grocery house of moan , John-
can & Co. was forced to the wall , and the
echoes ot that failure are still resounding
lu the corrldont of the court house. The
jobbing fraternity or Omaha la congratu
lating Itself upon the fact that through all
these troublous times this city has held
her own. with no national bank failure and
only two other disasters of any cense
quence.
"Tho canal enterprise Is not sleeping1.
Borne deliberation La proper In. drafting
lilana nnd preparing to submit the bonu
proposition. Mora than thla U la not ex-
IieJlent to Bay just now , but the prospects
are Improving day by day.
"The wall for rain has not yet died
nway , but the pictures painted by nessl-
, mt8tn regarding crop prospects are believed
to bo overdrawn. The ( dot Is thnt small
Krn.ln Is badly hurt , nnd fruits -will be very
nhort , but corn Is doing well. The stand
Is excellent , the corn Is ( trowing and rnln
In Reason from now on will Rive Nebraska
the largest corn yield oho has ever ex
perienced.
"Hetall business has been rather better
thla week , nnd one of the largest retail
merchants In Omaha told me the othri
day that this May was the best May he had
ever experienced. The smaller retail
dealers complain a good deal and with
cause , but retail collections nre better
than usual and conditions seem to be
slowly Improving.
"The frnturc of these times which excites
most Interest Is the great encouraging fact
that failures have been few and far be
tween. This Is true ot the country at
large , and more especially true of OmaJia
and Nebraska.
"Taking everything Into consideration
and casting about for facts regarding the
general Hltuatlon , I am Inclined to the
licllet that there Is now more reason for
hope and a better prospect of nn early re
covery than nt any time In the last three
months. If Nebraska should have a good
crop Omaha will have the largest whole-
Halo trade she hati ever known next fall
nnd winter. This la partly due to the
depletion of stocks In country mores , but
also to the fact that these close times have
brought to us moro of the larger traders
than ever before. "
SNOW , CHURCH &
Ncbrnnlin' * Tmilo I * on a Tlmicr Founda
tion Than Surface Condition * Indicate.
Albert Andrlano , local superintendent of
Snow , Church & Co.'s mercantile agency ,
writes :
"There Is llttlo change In the business
situation for the week past. The rains
have tended to Improve affairs and mer
chants and are much encouraged over the
outlook. The rlso In wheat Is the natural
result of a partial destruction of the grow
ing crop. There Is little Improvement In
general conditions , and Indeed there Is no
cause why there should be. Wheat and oats
will be almost a total failure , and fruit
and vegetables were nearly all destroyed
by the recent frosts. While corn Is ad
mittedly the main product of this region ,
the partial failure of the minor crops
moans a loss at a time when every favor
able condition Is necessary to the Improve
ment of trade , and every loss tends to In-
crenso depression. Add to this the fact
that the tariff question secmx ns unsettled
now as ever , labor troubles show no sign
Of decreasing , and It becomes plain that an
Improvement can hardly be expected at
this time. The corn crop Is a more pros
pect , nnd there Is nothing tangible that
would tend to Increase the volume of trade
until this prospect becomes a reality. Then
nnd then only will the business of Ne
braska Bhow a decided Increase. In speak
ing of the future of trade early In the
spring of this year , I made the prediction
that with a settlement of the tariff ques
tion , followed hy a cessation of strikes ,
with favorable weather and the prospect
of a large crop , business would show a
gradual improvement from week to week
until affairs once more assumed a normal
condition. The tariff Is apparently no
nearer a settlement than It has been , labor
troubles continue , with violence unabated ,
a partial failure ot small grain , fruit and
vegetables In this state. Is the situation
which confronts us now. Confession Is
good for the soul at times , nnd this Is a
time when the truth will do no harm. Hav
ing looked on Hit- dark side , It Is only fair
that the other have Its turn. Notwith
standing the unfavorable situation as de- '
srlbed , business for some time has shown
a decided Improvement , and today the
general tone Is firmer than It has been for
sometime. . Every merchant * Is aware of
the importance of the growing crop and
confidently looks forward to better trade
In the fall.
'The partial failure of small grain has
not been without Its advantages. The price
has gone up. nnd the , probability Is that
It will continue to rise , consequently the
farmers will receive nn Increased price
for the grain that has been saved. The
wheat and oats fields that have suffered
have been put Into corn , and the result
Is a greater ncrcago of that cereal than
ever before. As matters now stand , there
will probably bo llttlo change In the tone
of trade during the summer months , with
a decided Improvement In the fall , de
pendent , of course , upon the corn crop.
Carefully considering the above conditions ,
favorable and unfavorable , leads to the
conclusion that Nebraska and Its whole
sale centers rest on a flrmor foundation
than the eastern communities. While the
settlement of the tariff' question nnd the
resumption of activity lp the east will no
doubt have a very perceptible effect on
general business In this state , the trade
of this region Is more directly and entirely
dependent upon Us own agricultural re
sources.
-"A good corn crop this fall means Im
proved trade , tariff or no tariff. "

today , and July closed l o lower than yes

I'/iO lower , and provisions slightly lower all
around. .
In wheat there was an nctlvo market , with
price changes covering from % c to le
range. There was free selling by almost all
the largo commission houses , who oltercd
largo quantities from the start , and on the
dccllno which followed , who was credited
with covering toward the close of yesterday's
session , was by far the largest buyers. The
principal factor In creating the Increased
selling was the Improved weather conditions ,
both In the west and the northwest. The
weather showed that tho. droutll through
Kansas , Nebraska and the northwest had
been broken. Longs sold freely , taking their
profits , and room traders followed suit , buyIng -
Ing at the dccllno. July opened T4c lower
at 59c , and declined with tow reactions ,
finishing only Uc from the bottom.
Corn was actlvo and lower within from
le to lV4c range. The weakness was due to
rains In the west and the action of wheat.
Oats was active , and after an Irregular
dccllno ot from % o to IVic , closed near the
bottom. The market was weak on favorable
weather and the action of wheat and corn.
Provisions were extremely dull and slightly
lower on the break In wheat. Compared with

POTATOES-Tho quantity of old potatoes still
in shippers' hands is very small , and the season
Is practically over. Many buyers endeavor to
use old potatoes for their trade throughout the
month of June , ns by the 1st of July new are
plenty , nnd generally cheap , but tills season the
old have been cleaned up so closely that It Is a
question whether there will be enough left to
supply the trade ns long ns usual , and many
will probably have to commence upon new
sooner than they expected to or usually do. As
to new iNjtntoes , advices from most southern
points report nn unusually small yield , and In
dications are that stock will not bo cheap until
nearby potatoes commence to 'arrive. The acre
age south was not so small , hut the weather has
been unfavorable. Good new potatoes nro scarce
at Jl. 1031.20.

NEW YORK. Juiio 9. The stock market
was quiet today and without Important
feature , outslilo ot the ilcallngs In Sugar ,
which was fairly active. In this stock a
brink selling movement was Inaugurated on
reports from Washington that there Is n
prospect the tariff bill will bo modlllcd to
the Injury of the American Kenning com
pany. The shares opened % ] > er cent lower
and gradually declined until a further loss
of 2 per cent had been established. The
preferred stock fell oft Hi per cent. In
the general market , which was firm , llttlo
was doing , except In Chicago Gas nnd St.
Paul.
, London was not In the market , and the
business was practically confined to the local
traders. The speculation was very heavy
In the final dealings , and the market closed
rather weak for a majority of the list.
St. Paul fluctuated between C1U and 00 % .
closing within U per cent of the lowest
llgurcs.
Tho' Evening Post says ; Activity In rail
way stocks anil the advance In grain prices
wcro checked simultaneously today. The
sharp reaction In grain , however , was easily
iluo to the ( act that the government crop
report for Juno Is to appear this afternoon.
With all the grain trades , want of faith In
government estimates the figures are bound
to Influence speculation ; perhaps the more
so from the fact that the Kansas state re
port under the present populist regime , arc
by no means above suspicion.

This luta been a wuuk oC iniinparallvoly

stock being considerably heavier than List

During the early part of the week moder
ate supplies , bdth hero and elsewhere , cnuseil
a ( Inner feeling , and as there was a marked
Improvement In the Kngllsh market prices
advanced' rapidly , and owners and sellers
found the situation very much to their
liking. Dressed beef men took hold freely
and bought liberally , but as usual on an ad
vancing market , speculative shippers and
buyers for eastern butchers wcro the most
active operators. Prices advanced fully
half a dollar , nor was the advance confined
to the deslrablo grades. Uuycrs had to
have the cattle and "all was fish that was
caught In their nets. " Even the half fat
and short fed grassy steers that ten days era
a fortnight ago were hard to sell at any
prlco sold readily at prices goood cattle
would not bring then. On Krlday and
today , owing to the heavy supplies/ buyers
tried to break the market , but wcro unsuc
cessful. They succeeded , however , In stayIng -
Ing the advance , although In general the
rlso In values of the early part of the week
was well sustained.
SATL'UUAY'fe TRADE STEADY.
Today's supply was li , eral. about the same
as on Krlday , and the quality was very good
as a rule.VIicn the market is good the
quality Is good ami vice versa , at least to a
great extent. Dressed beef men were again
Inclined to bid lower prices , but again an
active shipping and speculative demand en
abled sellers lo get r'ght around htcudy pHces
for their offerings. Some of the ho.ivler cattle
tlo may have sold a trlllo easier , but on the
other hand there were Instances where some
of the handy fat steers and Borne that were
not EO fat brought more money. At all
events It was a good , actlvo market , and by
noon trading was over , the market closing
up strong.
About the only class of cows to feel the
advance In the fat cattle market was the
good , fat stock. Cornfed cows and heifers
have developed considerable strength this
week , but the thin , grassy stock has been
slow sale at mean prices. That was exactly
the condition of the market today. Calf
values have taken a big drop and are any
where from 75c to $2 lower than ten days
ago. The market has been overstocked for
some time. Good fat bulls , etc. , sold readily
at steady to a shade stronger prices , but
prices have shaded easier right along on the
under grades.
During the early part of the week there
was a very good trade In stockers and feed
ers at stronger prices , but owing to the con
tinued dry weather , which has burned up
many pastures , the country demtnd fell off
sharply , and with the decreased domain ! there
was a corresponding drop In values. Friday
night's rain , however , did a world of good
and there were quite a few buyers / > u hand
today. For a Saturday a fair amount of
business was transacted and prlcoj wcro
generally firm and a great deal different
from the close of last week. Good to cholco
feeders are quoted at J3.10@3.40 , fair to
good at $2.80@XOO and the -commoner grades
at from $2.80 down.

HOO MARKI5T IN GOOD SHAPE.
Receipt ! of hogs have been heavy all week ,
averaging very nearly 10,000 hogs a day.
The quality has been unusually good for this
time of the year and the market has been
unusually good , when the hcuvy supplies are
taken Into consideration , The average prices
for the week have been perhaps Co lower than
last week , but the market today was fully
Be better than last week , There Is a good ,
healthy tone to the trade , prices for hogs
and hog producti being more nearly on a cor
rect and normal bails than they have been
for six months , and the result In that packing
operations are profitable enough to keep the
heavy receipts cleaned up without any diffi
culty. The demand from eastern packers
hat ) been good , and altogether the situation
Is more encouraging to uii concerned than
It has been for over a year. Iluyers all
say they could not ask for better hogs than
are coming now and the freedom with which
they absorb the liberal ofterlngH shows that
puckers have lots of confidence In the future.
The average weight of the hogs for tho'paiit
week was about 2(0 ( pounds.
The market today was active and steady
to a hade stronger than Friday. Receipts
were liberal , but the demand was good from
all sources and trading lively from start to
finish. Heavy and butcher weights as usual
commanded a premium , selling at from J4.LS
to J4.CO , with ( ha light and I IK lit mUcd louila
