The cool weather of the past week hat
had a tendency to make business In local
wholesale circles rather slow , but the scale
has not been on n basis calculated to dis
courage Jobb rs. Tne Immediate demand foi
nil classes of hummer goods so general before -
fore the present cold snap hn material ! }
decreased , but merchants understand thai
this Is aulte temporary. The demand foi
numtner fabrics ) wns much In advance ol
previous years , and even If the trade Ir
this line la delayed several weeks by thi
change of weather It will be as early ui
U ual In this territory.
What Is trtia In dry goods circles hold :
quite generally In other mercantile lines
The enormous crop of early vcgyables thai
was clogging the local marts of trade hai
largely diminished nnd particularly Is thl !
true of the frulta being shlppjd Into tin
state from other points , Hut on all side :
nre received encouraging reports concerning
the condition of agricultural products. Fros
damage wns confined almost wholly ti
fimall fruit and gardens In Nebraska. Tin
, most material loss the reports ngrec wll
1 result from the suspended growth to vege
ri tutlon. The cold nights have retarded crop
> to a 'great extent , but since they were fa
. . In advance of other yearn they are In i
J better condition to stand it this year thai
usual.
Krom , n'll parts of the state come mos
encouraging reports ns to the condition o
crops generally. Never was the tone mor
generally hopeful. With the exception of i
few Hoctlon * rain hits fallen In ubunclunc
and the moisture In the ground Is sulllclen
to n sure a line growth for'probably i
month. This Is particularly true of land
nubject to Irrigation.
L.AKOK CHICOUY CROP.
The Indications now nre that the lav
placing a bounty on chicory hns stimulate !
the production of that article to an exten
hardly oxiwcted by thtf friends of the mcns
ure. Nearly every county In the state re
ports'- ' large acreage of the vegetable. li
.Douglas and Sarpy counties alone the Urn
of K , ' D , Van Court & Co. have contract
for 210 acres. The yield under favorabl
circumstances In this territory is from llv
to eight tons per acre. The Van Cour
contracts call for 'the payment to the pro
tlucer of J10.EO per ton for th
chicory delivered at the factory. Thl
promises to be a large source of rcvenu
to the farmers of the state.
Dodge county farmers have several bun
dred acres under cultivation , and In fnc
nearly every agriculturist In the state lu.
more" or less of the article In this year a
nn experiment. The chicory factory n
, O'J elll , the only one In the state. Is en
f larglug its plant' to' handle the fall trad
' and will double Its capacity. That factor1
furnishes at present , and has for man :
months , all the chicory consumed In Otnahn
which amounts to hundreds of tons nn
nufilly. All this formerly was imporle
from Kuropean countries. The factor
plafeA , lt on the Omaha market at frtm
to C cents per pound.
Omaha. In the pasb has sent thousands o
dollar * abroad for this article. Now at
rangementu are 'being made to ship th
chicory crop of Nebraska to Chicago , SI

enormous crop now growing. Van Cout

Condition Is Hncfi that the Nebraska
.Should < > cl Tliunkfiil.
The manager of the Snow , Church & O
Mercantile oBency , In reviewing- buslnei
situation , says :
"The' week just closed has been producth
of nothing startling- the way of buslne :
In Omaha , or In Nebraska. Huslness of a
.kind * ban been very light , although taltlr
everything Into consideration , the frost i
the h ter part of fast week anil the earl
part ot thla week , together with the coi
Untied , cold weather , a rushing buslnei
was hardly to be expected.
H Is perhaps rather cold-blooded to t
glad that the effects of the frost have bee
greater In other states than In Nebrask
The damage by frost In Nebraska has bet
exceedingly Blight , so much so , that nfti
the true condition had been ascertnlnt
there wns no cause for worrlment left i
the farmers. The damage by frost In low
Missouri and Kansas tins not been by ar
means light , nnd In many places the fnra
ers have been forced to plow under tl
crops previously sown and plant again , n
though it is to be hoped that they w
experience no Ill-effect from this beyond tl
loss of the llral seed.
The cold weather during thla week hi
retarded the crop * In Nebraska , and It w
take something1 like two weeks to brlt
them up to what they would have bet
at this time had It not been for the co
wenther , but taking everything Into co
ulderatlon the farmer In Nebraska hi
much to be thankful for when comparlt
hlH situation with that of the farmers
the surrounding states.
The condition of business In the city
Omaha , although not what It ought to 1
at this time. Is still In a healthy condltli
und everything shown thut. although buf
ness l at present slack , the stoppage
Its volume la merely tomi > orary nnd that
will revive Immediately upon the return
tine weather.
It may be opportune at this time to me
tlon that the plant of the Blair Beparat
Horse Collar nnd Manufacturing' compai
of Hlalr , Neb. , was completely dstroy
by tire a few days since , there being- not
Ing saved but the boo't * . Omaha Is lookli
for manufacturers nnd It should get i
the manufacturers that It Is possible
Induce toTome to Omaha. Would It not
well , therefore , under the existing clrcut
stances , to inuko an effort to have tl
factory , whlcn Is not by any means
B inn 11 one , to remove to Omaha ? \Ve spei
of personal knowledge when we pay th
the trade of this concern extends from t
Atlantic to the 1'aclllc , and from St. Pu
to thn extreme south. An extra manufa
tory to Omaha would not by any ntea
be tun lift.
Collections during the past week ha
been rather batter than In the week pi
ceding which , of course. Is an Indlcatl
of the betterment of the times.
In conclusion It might be said that Oma
nnd Nebraska , both as to the present a
the future , have much to be thankful t
and very little to bo blue about.

lluilnes * llecorerf lilnctjil by the Tendon
tu Speculative Investment.
"The unique fact today In Omaha and t
country generaly la this : Almost evn
thing Is advancing In price , yet nlmc
everybody Is 110111 ? business on a very , vc
small margin of prollt , " These were t
opening sentences of the weekly review
trade from the standpoint of the Dun Mi
rnntlle agency. "Wheat passed 70 cents tether
other- day , nnd nearly every product of s
nnd of factory ls now higher In price th
It was nix months ago. The trouble Isl
the advance In prices of products is hroug
ubout by the exhaustion of supplies
hand. The demand has not Increased , a
the Increased prices have not stimulated n
material activity. To Illustrate : Kupp (
the Omaha Klevator company hod l.Ouo.
bushels of wheat In store and the clevo" !
people knew thut Omaha could not get
nddlttonal supply of wheat until after hi
vest. The elevator company would ndvar
the price bwause the stock of Brain
hand must Inevitably be In demand. Hi
po. c , further , tlmt the elevator people kn
that Omaha was reducing her consumptl
tifrlirut at the rate of * ITi.OuO bushels ]
day , Would K not be reasonable to expi
the elevator company to buy from day
day enough to kern the stock on hand eqi
lo l.W.OOO bushels ? Our demands are no
iluccd by enforced economy thut while <
manufacturers and producers generally r
ognlie the fact that their present suppl
will Inevitably he exhausted , they are t
certain ns to future demands , and tri
anil everybody else are waiting.
" \ \ < e may expect a betttr feeling evei
where and a gradual recovery , but wo i
not yet prosperous , and It will take * o
time to reach our normal bnslners con
tlon. The backbone of our prosperity Is (
farming districts. The farmer ls not pr
IH.TOIIS. lie need * n crop to meet presi
Improved price * . Kverybody knows , ho
ever , that the American farmer will r coi
til * prosperity , mid us agriculture la i
largest single Industry we cannot expecl
largo volume af trada until he lias recov
ered his equilibrium ,
"When Americans begin to apeculnte and
the world of capital Indicate * a desire Tor
commercial adventure It Is pretty safe to
say business Is gaining. Wall street has
been In n fever of micturitions and the
boards of trndc at grain centers hitvc en
joyed unusual fluctuations. Front the ex
treme of conservative Investment we nre
swinging back to laxity and n longing for
large and quick returns. U Is so , nlso , In
London , where large capital Is always sesk-
Ing Investment nnd where there Is always
possible speculation. Englishmen have In-
ve tfil 1700.010,00) ) In African gold mining ,
nnd Ixindoncrs , In the face of the advice of
nil the financial journals of the world's me
tropolis , oversubscribed for the entire last
Issue of government bonds nnd the cheaper
railroad stocks nre Belling1 nt n remarkable
rate. The American Investments are not
speculative , either , but they nre permanent
and nre not to be Immediately unloaded
uixin our own Investors. This relieves local
capital to float new enterprises which have
long been slumbering- pigeon holes. The
east Is recovering from the distrust of
western Investment ! ) nnd begins again to
look toward the setting nun for rates of In
terest which are Impossible In the congested
money centers of New York nnd the Atlan
tic seaboard cities. The west Is nil rlghl
nml the east knows It. and while the east
will ba morn cnreful In the future legiti
mate demands for money for promotion ol
genuine prosperity in the west will find
Investors favorably Inclined.
"Ixicnlly we are still waiting and some ol
us are kicking. We must have crops before
we can feel easy , nnd the crop Is promis
ing , taking the state at larfxe. though dis
heartening reiKirts come from some far wcsl
sections. The most dissatisfied person :
among- our 'citizens nre those who have
rental property nnd real estate , nnd yel
they are doingns well as anybody else
When u business of Jl.000,000 a year payi
only J3.UUO net to Its owners or 1 per cent-
landlords ought to be satisfied with from , '
to 10 per cent. The fact Is" that the preseni
depression strikes all nbout alike from thi
capitalist to the day laborer. Each has hi'
pro rata share of the burden to carry , nni
discontent Is fully us common in the palnci
as In the hovel.
"In my review of last week , referring-
building enterprises throughout the country
I stated that the Investments undertakei

according to the national ofllclnl organ o
the building trades , aggregated J16,00),00 (

view carelessly , jumped to the conclusloi
thut I had llgured the J1G.OOO.OOO for Omnlu
and passed n resolution of censiirt1. Nobods
coulif have been misled , however , who reni

I am glad to comply with the request o

CHICAGO , May IS.-Corn led the dance or
the Hoard of Trade , jumping 4Hc , and
closed lc higher at 53V4o for July. The
cold wave scare caused ths advance. Jul >
wheat gained IHc , September oats I'&c ' am' '
provisions closed at advancts.
Almost every commission man and jjpec-
ulntor of experience advised their .custom
era and told their friends before the market
opened that the Inevitable break In tin
wheat market would bo realized today. How
much they were mistaken they began to real
Ize when , after a decline of Vid per bu. , in
the result of nil the efforts of the entln
local talent bunched together on the sell
Ing side , the price was gamboling1 nroutu
72 < 4c per bu. for July about half an houi
from the close. That was quite a contrns
with CO'Ac , although som ; few sates wen
made near the opening. July started will
sellers nt 70c , but no buyers until It hat
been offered down to CfJic , and In semi
Instances as low' as CDVSc. It recovered grad
ually to "OHc , but for an hour and a hal
there wns enough wheat on sal ; at any
thing. When , however , heavy frosts wen
predicted for South Dakota , Nebraska , Kan
aas and Missouri , threntanlng the des'.ructloi
of the corn , which Is now MO promising
the price of corn began to shoot skyward
wheat could no longer be controlled am
Jumped about for half an hour like a pea ot
a hot stove. It rose to-72Hc , dropped li
about ten minutes to 70-Tic , rose again t <
72i4c arid closed with buyers at Tl lc. Thi
ordinary market news .was not'mucli heeded
apart from what referred to ths reportei
damage to the growing crop. Thi
northwestern receipts nt Minneapolis am
Duluth were 207 cars , against 283 curs a yea
ago. For this week the carloads received a
Minneapolis and Duluth have been COO les :
than on the corresponding week of last year
The week's clearances of wheat nnd llou
from both coasts were 2,337,0X1 bu. , compare !
with 2.80T .000 bu. on the week bsfore.
Corn started weak , but It did not stay li
that condition very long. The prediction o
frost sulIlcUntly severe to. make the re
planting of corn necessary In the prlnclpa
states of Its production was the cause of ai
excitement such ns Is seen only nt rare In
tervals In the corn pit. July openei

to 01'4e near the beginning of th
session , nnd for a tlmp llounderei
'n n lazy way at around fil'.ic. Soon tha
A'as changed entirely , and It went shootlni
itbout like the shuttle of a sewing machine
Up with a bound It jumped to fa\c. hue !
again to KlVlc and up once more to C5c , nl
In about ten minutes. The heavy local re
cslpts , numbering 700 cars , caused the open
Ing heaviness , and 550 more estimated fo
Monday did not Improve It. The reason fo
the bulge has been stated. The latest trad
'rig wns nt Kli.c. !
Oats were active and secured a heav ;
business. Frost scare , good buying b
shorts and the Influence of wheat and cor :
nil assisted In advancing values. Septem

lon. June started nt 2S ° c. sold at fror
SKc to 2SHC , advanced to 29 > i and close

The provision market was steady near th
beginning , owing to the hog receipts beln
moderate. It became quite strong who
the corn market showed the wuy In sue
excited fashion , nnd to the advance In thn
article is to bu ascribed a gain for the da
