Business in a Jobbing Way Shows Ho Im-

COLLECTIONS REPORTED RATHER SLOW

llo Kxpcctcd Under Ilia Conditions ,
The Intervention of a holiday , ns usual ,
had tta Influence ujwn the trade of the past
t week In thu way of retarding for the mo
ment orders from country buyers. Such
goods ns would naturally bo In demand for
the holiday were all bought and In stocjt
before the opening of the present week , so
that any good results that might accrue
to trade were already experienced. During
the curly part of the week retail mer
chants were busy taking care of their trade
and were too much occupied to write out or
ders for goods. As n result the past week
was hardly up to the record of the two
weeks previous In the matter of business
In a jobbing way.
In addition to being Homewhat quiet the
operations of jobbers' have been mostly of
the every-day character and without npcclal
features of Interest to the general public.
Collections remain slow and , as noted a
week ngo , there Is little reason for antici
pating any very great Improvement In thlfl
respect for some little time to come.
In the boot and shoe trade the jobbers arc
commencing to ship out In aHmall , way fall
Roods. There Is , however , a disposition on
the part of both Jobbers and retailers to
wait as long as possible before having the
goods shipped , lest some "hangc In the crop
situation might IIIIIKO a change In the size
of the order desired. The demand at manu
facturing iwlntH IH reported as fulling off
and the manufacturers at Philadelphia are
about to discontinue operations for a week
or two , as UHUal at Him season , At Huston
the manufacturers report orders enough 111
hand to keep them busy for the next six
weeks. The feeling In the shoe market Is
very firm and It U claimed that prices are
more likely to Hhow further advances , thai ;
that they should decline.
HAHlJWAUE MAUKET FIIIM.
Local jobbers of harwaro report a good
business for this season of the ye.ir. As u
matter of fact It Is the dull season In the
hardware line and no great amount of bus !
ness Is anticipated at this time. All ad
viincos that have been reported so far Imvi
been well maintained. While no radlcu
Jr * advances have occurred during the past few
days on staple- lines , there have been nil'
merous slight advances on what might be
termed minor lines necessitated by Increased
cost of labor and material. Some Idea of the
llrmness of the market may be gained from
the amount of the advance that has taken
place In the price of raw material. Since
Match 1 , when values on steel billets were
the lowest In the history of the trade , steel
billets have advanced to a point which
places them back where they : were two years
ago. The greater part of this recovery was
accomplished during thu p.ist two months.
At the commencement of March steel bil
lets were selling at $11.75 and by the end of
June the price had advanced to $1M. This
advance "ms taken place In the face of a
largely Increased output Incident to the'
starting up of new works , Iron and steel
men arc evidently of the opinion that the
present advance In prices will prove to be of
u .permanent character , as they are many of
them adding to thu capacity nf th''r plants
or building new work" . In thu llm > of dry
goods the July trade thus far has been nil
that was anticipated , considering' the season
and the general conditions prevailing in the
country. Dry goods men generally are
talking In a very encouraging manner and
the market , which was In anything but a
Katlsfautory condition one year ago , Is ra | > -
Idly gutting Into shnpu and the outlook for
this branch of business would seem to be
especially good. Woolen goods have shown
decided Improvement for the llrst time since
June , 189. ! . About a month ngo the decline
In the price of wool that was uninterrupted
for nearly two years was checked and the
current of values turned In an opposite di
rection. The decreased supply of wool
caused the holders to a k higher prices ,
which they succeeded In getting , and the
result Is a stronger market on the manu
factured products. Kormer advances nil cot
ton goods have boon well maintained.
V GUKKN KIIUIT ON A DOOM.
The druggists report a waiting trade.
Buyers want to sec thu outcome of the corn
crop of the state before placing their orders
for any considerable quantity of goods. A
traveling man who has Just returned from
the Ulack Hills country says that trade even
In that section Is qulot and no one inclined
to buy more than is actually required by
the present demands of thu trade.
Local grocery Jobbers generally report
trade as u little less active during the week
past , duo no doubt to thu Influence of the
Intervening holiday. Thus far there has
been no great Improvement In the grocery
trade and previous Indications of reviving
activity have come to nothing moro than a
temporary demand for such goods as were
required to 111 ! present wants. The market
has not been entirely devoid of Interest ,
though changes have not been of a very
radical character.
There Is a llrmer feeling on corn , peas and
several lines of canned goods.
Navy beans are tinner and desirable stock
Is hard to get.
U Is a strangn fact that nn agricultural
state llko Nebraska does not grow enough
beans for home consumption. Farmers In
Nebraska prefer to ral e corn at 15 cents
per bushel and pay R cents per pound for
beans at the store or at the rate of $3 per
bushel.
California evaporated apricots are MfJVfec
higher on account of the short crop on the
Increased cost of the green fruit. The
dinners are also commviii.mg to talk
higher prices for the tmmn reasons. Thirty
days ago the green fruit was selling at
Jii per ton , as against. < . tin- price pre
vailing , at the present time. In the San
Jouqulii valley and In Vaoavlllo drying Is

Vroni time to time an advance on this or
that article has boon note 1 In tlic-Jo col
umns and n general Impression has no
doubt gone abroad that "lines on duple
lines of merchandise . - r > much higher
than they were a few mon'hs a o. It Is

In the future of trade i-lces advanced
with a rush that In sumo oa os proved alto
gether too rapid. In some .Instances ,
notably In petroleum , wheat , corn , cotton ,
pork , beef , hides and leather , the rise was
accelerated by speculation to an excessive
degree. Other factors , especially the
shortness of supplies , aided the movement ,
but the usual reaction followed , and In
some Instances prleos arc now lower than
at the highest point touched In the present
upward movement.

NOT Al.t , OOI.D THAT IIAH A OMTTKIt
NebrnnKn Farmers Advlncd tn Lot Cali
fornia I'ritlt flrowlng Alone ,
"Somo of these land companies that ore
trying to locate farmers In certain sections
of the country arc guilty ot gross misrep
resentation , " said a local jobber , as ho
Squared himself at his desk and began
looking through a pile of papers In n
pigeon hole . "Nebraska farmers were unfortunate -
fortunate last season nnd had to be helped
through the winter , and the boomers would
like to Induce them to glvo up ifielr homes
nnd move away to a new country. Here
Is what I was looking for , a clipping from
n California paper , and It Is a sample of
the literature emanating 'from that state
anil published with a view of InduuInK
people to locate on fruit lands held by
largo land and Irrigation companies' . A
gootl many N'ebraskans have gone to that
state , and I will venture that not one of
them who took up fruit growing as n
business has been able to realize anything
near hl.s expectations. Hero is what the
alifornia writer says about prune grow-
ng : 'It will be n long time before It
ill be necessary for the prune growers
f the Pacific coast to look abroad for a
narket. They will have all they can defer
for many years to come In supplying the
constantly Increasing demand nt home ,
md those who contemplate engaging In
he cultivation of the prune need have no
'ear upon thu score or nny possible over
production. The opportunity that Is af-
Tordcd In this country for the great en-
nrgeincnt of the prune Industry may be
Judged from the fact that there nro from
Xl.OOO.UiX ) to OO.OOO.OW pounds of that fruit
Imported Into the United States every year ,
while the California production has not
exceeded 40,000,000 pounds , and by some It
's placed at even less than that. There
s no reason why California prunes should
not entirely tmpplant the Imported fruit ,
and at the same time , by their excellence
nnd moderate price , create u greatly en-
'arged demand which will consume the
iirodtict of all the orchards that will be
ilnnted for years to come , even though
the present acreage should be doubled and
quadrupled. '
"So much for the boomers' side of the
story ; now let us see what are the actual
facts In the case , " continued the Jobber.
"Last fall prunes were low and wo were
able to buy the finest slock on the coast
at prices which the growers claimed were
below the cost of production , and I have
reasons for believing that they did not mis
represent the fnclx. One very largo
grower who came to Omaha to offer us
his crop presented figures to show that he
could not grow prunes nnd cure them nt
the price then prevailing on the market ,
to say nothing of a margin from which to
pay Interest and living expenses. Ho said
that the prune Industry was overdone and
that he was cutting down his trees , ns
he could not afford to have valuable land
occupied with fruit that would not pay
expenses. Other growers were heard to
remark about the same thing , and they
were practical men .who knew what they
were talking about nnd had no Interest in
representing the situation other than It
iicttmlly existed.
"That was the situation last fall , but
this summer I can buy prunes for 23 per
cent less than the prices prevailing nt that
time. Utlll California land companies have
the effrontery to advertise the business as
a most profitable one and thus Induce
farmers In Nebraska to give up their corn
lands and buy California land nt the most
extravagant prices.
"In view of the facts , It Rounds n little
strange to read In n California paper that
there Ls no danger of nn overproduction of
prunes. It must bo berne In mind , however ,
that only n small portion of the prune
oicliimta In that state have come Into bearIng -
Ing , and Htlll the miirkct Is already so de
pressed that prices are below the cost ot
pi-iluoilot ! It Is ( ihuictl that when the
orchards ) already * planted In that state come
Into full bearing they will yield a crop of nt
least 200.000,000 pounds. Taking the ligures
of the Imports during the past ten years
It will be found that there- have been
brought Into this country on nn average
from foreign countries 47OSO,7iU ) pounds rn-
nually. During the same period the average
yearly production of California has amounted
to 19.000,000 pounds. This shows the annual
consumption of prunes In the United States
during the period of ten years to be C6.C23.-
7CO ixnmds. In 1833 the California crop
renr.hed 57,500,000 pounds , which was pretty
well up toward the requirements for con
sumption. It would look as If the California
prune crop were already largo enough , as
there nre always sure to be some Imported.
P.ut California land owners are not satis
fied end keep urging the farmers of other
platoi to cmlcrato to California nnd en
gage In prune growing , when they know
that the tomtit crop Is large enough , and
that when all the orchards como Into bearIng -
Ing the ciop will bo three times greater
than the rr t le consumption of the fruit In
the United States. My advice to Nebraska
farmers would be to continue to plow corn
and not allow themselves to be led astray
ty the decppllvu prune. "

CHICAOO , July C. The wheat market was
firm today , hut not very active , and the
nctunl gain In price tit the close was only
lie per 1)U. ) The only states which could
have materially brought up the average are
now complaining of damage to their own ,
California , Washington , the Uakotaa and
Minnesota all Bending complaints today.
Corn yielded to the Influence of the next
rep prospects and declined % c per bu. and
oats lost % c. Provisions show very little
change.
The change In the value of wheat over
light was not very material at the start ,
jut such as It was. It Indicated more con-
Idenco In present prices. For the first time
his xeasan thu weather In the northwest
could be called distinctly unfavorable for
he M'tlng wheat , leaving out the slight
ouch of frost experienced about three
veeks ago. It rained over a considerable
area of the spring wheat region , and where
t did not rain a high temperature pre
ailed. The Liverpool market waa quoted at
id low , on account of Improvement of
'rench wheat proi-pects. It was said , but
nero likely due to yesterday's weakness
lere. llnslncss In the pit was of the same
ocal and light character that has prevailed
all week , ' but the slight Improvement which
narked the opening transactions was main-
allied and added to. September opened at
'roin 70ie to 70T4c , advanced gradually to
71c to 71Ho and closed nt TV/nC , as com
pared with 70 > sC at the end of the previous
lay's session. Haiti In the Houthwest was
also an Item of the * day's news , which was
unfavorable In that It would at least delay
the movement of winter wheat , oven If It
lid not permanently Injure the quality of
such of It as was In shock. The receipts
ire small. At St. I/ouls , Toledo , Kansas
City , Detroit and Chicago the day's re
ceipts were only 67,000 bu. altogether. Here
nine out of twenty-six carloads received
were new , one of which graded No. 1 hard ,
three No. 1 red , and the remainder rejected.
Uradstrect'H gave the week's shipments ol
wheat and Hour from both coasts at 2.007,000
bu. , against 1,916,000 bu. on the previous
week. Argentine was reported to have
shipped JCJi.OOO bu. since a week ago. The
Atlantic port shipments for twenty-four
hours were equal to 270,000 bu. , Including
Hour.
Corn did not break badly with such ex
cellent growing weather , and principally on
account of the fact that there Is a ver >
good demand for the cash article and con
siderable short Interest for September de
livery. Captain Phillips and John Cudahy
were credited with being the principals be-
risd a great deal of selling which followed
tlie execution of the llrst batch of selling
orders. Later still the market picked Itsell
up to within ' , ic per bu. of the price It
closed at yesterday , but when the end was
reached a % c decline had been establishes
for the day. The shipments from Argentine
for The week were GyS.OOO bu. About 2K > ,000
bu. of No. 2 yellow sold here for shipment
lit Vie per bu. over the Saptember price. The
day H receipts were 231 carloads , and for
Monday the estimates arc 13r cars.
The market for oata was only fairly
active. The early market displayed a firmer
tone In consequence of fairly good buying
Schwartz-Uupee and Norton-Worthlngton
participating In the same to some extent
Later a decline followed , Influenced by a
similar action In wheat and corn , and at
the close prices were a small fraction lower
September ranged from 2IVic to 23c anc
closed at from ElTic to 24c.
The provision market was dull , but In
the main firm. The hog receipts were on ! }
0,000. and for next week 105,000 are estl-
n.atcd , against 90,000 received altogether
this week. Packing to date is 1,719,000
head , against 1.038.000 head for the corresponding
spending period of the year before. An
advance of lOc took place In pork at the
opening , but It was again down to yester
day's closing price In half ( in hour there
after , and at the end 'was 2c lower for
the day. Lard and ribs were also firm
at the dpenlnp , and closed ylth the earl >
advance of the day all lost. The demand
for cash meats Is reported to be very
light for both consumption and export at
New York.

NEW YOltlC , July . ChlrnRO Oas was the
weak spot In today's clock inaiket. This morn-
ng's ndvlcea from Chicago wcie to the effect that
vhlte Piesldent Lincoln had not yet sent In his
ealgnatlon , it wns very probable he would dee
o , nr Colonel Payne , nt whoso request he be
ams the chief executive olllcer of the trust , had
omo time since sold out his stock In the com-
any. lleports from the same iwurce stated that
ther Chicago directors would resign and that
he attorney general would b allowed to push
ils suits against the trust , to the end that the
cimipjtty's affairs be put nn u new basis.
The boars took the Inltl.itlvo In Chlc.igo busl-
niss nnd forced the stock down per cent , , Imt
n brisk covering nn advance of 1-S per cent Kits
lulckly made. At the high Hmtres lha ntt.ick
vns ivnewtil nnd n sharp decline of 2 per cent
ollowed , Toward the close u covering move-
nent causpd a rally of T per cent , restricting
he loss tm the day to % per cent. The geneinl
1st tH'came moderately active and In the m.tln
ilgher , nnd nn advance set In ranging up to 2
n > r cent , New England leading tin * tnllway group
md the Tobacco shares the Industrials. The
leprcsslon In Chicago ( las caused n reaction of
' , per cent In New England , but In the llnal
radlng there wnit u partial recovery and the
naiktt closed firm nnd In the main higher than
nt the close yesterday. The gains nro fractional
xcept that Sugar shows nn Improvement uf 1
HT cent. The trading of Ihe week has been dull
nnd the matket unsettled , having been largely In
he hands of Ihe prnfo flonal operators. At the
outset the traders ranged on Ihe short side and
naugurated a movement against the Industrial
hares , which resulted In n heavy break In thiw
ticks. The advance III prices of Sinrar Induced
he formation of n bull pool In Sugar stock ,
vhlch mnved the price up , maklrg a net gn u of 5H
> or cent. The railway list In me earlier oieru-
Ions ruled lower , In sympathy with n drive
ngnlnst the Industrials , nnd although the granger
group nt one llmt was the target for the bears
nd yielded under their efforts , the list genetally
clos.il higher on the week. The sustaining fnc-
ors In the lale speculation were the receipt of
avi > iable tralllc rt'turns , cheering crop advice- ,
.ondon tuy ng and the Improved business outlook ,
vhlch ciiuii > il heavy coveiing by the shorts.
Tiie transactions of the week aggregate 1,07C,700
shares nnd 133 storks llgured In the dealings.
Today's market was dull , the sales belnn only

asler. The l ind speculation of the week wns
nacllve and devoid of nny special features. The
sales were JC.9U3I ) and SSI lionds were dealt In.

CATTLE As regards fat cattle. It was
the same old story that has boon retold f o
frequently of late as to become decidedly
tlreiome light supply and a dull , druggy
nmrkct. A few loads of steers were offered ,
some of them fairish cattle , but none of
them very choice , As to the condition of
the market , It was a Saturday , and the buy
ers dltl not appear to be In exactly a buying
mood. Then , too , Chicago came dull , and
that did not help matters here to any ox-
tent. The result was an all-day market ,
though the offerings were mostly all taken
In thu end and at prices not materially
different from yesterday.
Cow stuff was In fair supply , though the
offerings fell considerably thort of yester
day's number. The market as n whole did
not show much change from yesterday's de
cline.
There was not much doing In stackers
and feeders , there being few cattle of that
description here and not much demand.
The past week has witnessed very little
change In the fat cattle market , the situa
tion remaining very nearly the same from
day to tlay. The recoups have boon light
ind right choice corn-fed steers scarce. The
buyers have taken the few cattle offered
anil prices for the'week did not show much
change until Friday , when there was a
slight dctcllne.
The cow market has shown more change ,
prices having taken quite a drop. The de
cline was mostly on medium grades , the
common kinds being not BO much off. The
market Is fully 15if20o ( lower In the extreme
cases than it was a week ago. Representa

The heavy nnd heavy mixed hogs werp not In
" good demand , nnd they sold. If anything , a
lltllo lower. In some cqses perhaps 5c lower than
yesterday. Pretty decent loads of heavy hogs
sold nt from JI.S5 to JI.90.
The market upon the whole wn < i very uneven
and for lhat reason miner dllllcult to report No
two salesmen held exactly the same opinion ot
the trade. Some of the buyers reported their
hogs as costing mor ! money than yesterday and
others leas.
The total receipts loday were forty cars. at.
against twenty-four loads yesterday. In addition
to the fresh reivlpts there were ten loads car
ried over from yesterday. Everything was sold
In good season.
During the past week there has been n decided
change In the hog market. For some time prim
heavy hogs have been belling nt n premium CIVIM
light weights. At the commencement of the
week there was n spread of lOo to 20o between
the light nnd heavy hogs , but owing to the Im
proved demand for light hogs In the east , the
range has been narrowed down very rapidly until
they nre selling at , nearly the a.iim prices.
Huyera say that the English trade Is Improving ,
which accounts for the Increased demand for.
light hogs that has been noticeable during the
past few days. Itepresentntlve Hales :

JERSEY'S WASH DAY.
A Oimlnt Suit \Vutrr l'o tlvul on the Const
at Hon ( llrt.
Mrs. lUirton Harrison , In nn article on
"American Hural Festivals" In the Century
for July , writes ns follows :
Ot those which I Imvo soon , anil those ot
which I hnvo boon ahls to gather account * ) ,
the one smackltiK most pleasantly of old-
time rustic revelry , nnil therefore to ba
offered honorable precedence In this recital. Is
the "Salt Water day , " or. "Wash day" ot the
New Jersey farmers , that since time out ot
in I mi has bjen celebrated on the second Sat
urday In August upon the coast at Sea
Girt.
Girt.To
To make this Jersey holiday , assemble a
thousand hack-country vehicles of nil sorts ,
from the hooded farm wagon , which has not
Krcatly altered Its pattern for centiirlss , to
the rude huckhoard nnd pert sulky. Thu
horses are withdrawn from shafts or pole to
he tethered behind the wagons or picketed at
a little distance In the rear. Around the Im
promptu camp gather people enough to
blacken half a mile of the candy 8hore-v
people who for months have been looking for
ward to the occasion as the chief 1-ollday
of the year. Cedar chest and camphor trunle
and ( lowered bandbox have been called upon
to disgorge their treasures , but t'tore ' Is no
other attempt at costuming than the EH-
sumption of mere Sunday best. An odd
feature of the great concourse Is the serious
ness with which It takes Its plaasuro. A
solemn , even strained expression of deter
mination to revel or die sits upon the ma
jority of faces. During the uu'iurnpaslni ; ot
the wagons , wlilcli have been arriving upon
the scene since early dawi sjtnplnq ; WIT-
night being not Infrequent the good wives
unpack their luncheon baskets , take ' .n'.iy of
their pies , and. If need b ? . while away the
time by methodically administering punish
ment of the good old fashioned variety to
their Impatient youngsters.
Around the outskirts of the concourse are
seen the booths and rostrums of the fakirs
attracted from New York by the promise of
rich harvests from tlio farmers' wallets.
There Is also ol rllia range , a merry-go-round
and a doll target at which balls are thrown
for prizes. Many another cheap diversion
offers Itself during explorations of the
farmer and his wife and clamoring progeny ,
and more than one pinch of dire experlenc ]
falls to the lot of the paying member of tlio
party. The nasal cries of the Yankea
Autolycus offering his Inkles , caddises anil
lawns are continually heard above the
swelling murmurs of Jersey joviality.
Fairing over , there Is a general retreat to
the tent dressing rooms , Improvised with
shawls and canvas curtains In connection
with the vehicles. The great annual hath
of tlio pilgrims Is next In order , and down to
the shining reach of ocean , where the crispIng -
Ing billows hurry In , presently troop the
qdeerest group of bathers ever seen out of n
caricature. Many of the men and boys , dis
daining change of dress , go Into the water
In their ordinary clothes , sunning themselves
afterward In the hot sun until toasted dry
again. Others put on shirts from which
sleeves have been removed and trousers cut
off at the knee. The bathing outfit of the
women reveals droll miscellanies of bygoua
fashion In cut and texture , tome of the mora
coy among the matrons Including pantalets ,
sunbonncts and gloves , With eober mirth ,
demure smiles , suppressed cries of excite
ment , the phalanx moves Into the surf ,
taking hands to jump discreetly up anil
down In long lines , safe within the clanger
line. To the greater number this venture
Into the sea Is actually no more than an
annual experience.
After the bath , noontime turns all thoughts
dlnnerward and the camp settles down Into
one vast picnic. Pics of all kinds suggest
the litany chanted without taking breath
of the feminine hotel waiter In the car ot
the summer boarder : "Applo pie , mince pie ,
custard pie , lemon pie , equash pie and plo-
plant pic. " Doughnuts ( called "nuts" In tlis
vernacular ) , cheese In liberal wedge * , hum
sandwiches , hard boiled eggs and pickles
supply the favorite menu , and lemonade and
root bear perchance a stronger beverage-
are produced In bottles each confessing by
label to a different Intention In Its eailler
career.
Then while the suminsr sun slants In tha
cloudless heaven the- merriment goes on to
Its climax , more dips In the ocean are taken.
moro money changes hands , more solid food
U consumed , till at last the shades of evenIng -
Ing close upon the scene and a general
"hitching up" ot teams betokens the end ot
Salt Water day at Sea Dirt.
