The Improvement In thn local business situation , nftcr three years of the mo.it trying times , la HUn n BUdden nwnkenlni ? j from it lon sleep troubled l > y n. mlccciaslon of frightful ilrpiimn. To dream of fnllliw Is the most unpleasant Rcnsatlon evur ox- perltnc'tHl by the sleeper , nnil for thn-e or I more yearn cverythlnK hna been falllnt ; values , capllnl , credit , ami volume nr btlsl- Jicss ImVe all l eeii on the downward trend. Time find OH"ln It seemed ua If the bottom must have been reached , but lime-honored signs failed , and the predictions of the wlswiu ntinnclurn iiroved unrcllablo as busi ness cotillniied on Its downward course. Now that the lone looked for chanK has como It Is a matter for general conRratuln- tlons amoiiK business men. Naturally cnotiRh , thn Improvement has not yet been fell by nil business bouses , nor ban It by tiny means appeared In every di'ixirlment of trnile. Still the wave Is spreading , und ' many 'business men who i-ollld not HCC any Improvement two wt-elcs IIBO rejiort a vhiinRa for thii better thin week. Some lioliHi-.s and some departments of trade feel the offcrtH of Improved conditions sooner than others for evident reasons , but almost nil buslm-vs men admit a HUh.stantlal Im provement In the Ritiiurul situation even though they may be iinahlo to note any clmiiKo In their own Individual entorprliieH. Money IH beoomlnt ; much eaHler , the banks are Kradually icttlnt-ovcr their marc , and are moro ready to do buslneas. The eHHltiR U | > of monny In tile country has helped out retail mercliniidlilnR to un extent that Is havlni ; u most beneficial tilTect ujion local Jobbing operations. The manufacturers , who stand In nbout the same relation to the country an the Jobbers , are generally experiencing a con- Blderable Increase In the demand for their products. The whole Hltilatlon locally M very much Improved , and business men have every reason for belluvltiK that there will be no turning backward In the monthH lo come. Durlni ; the i > aal two weeks ovcry one who has been out In the state lonjr enough to look Into the situation hna reported every thing as In a most encouraging condition , nnd the Kent-nil remark Is "givo Nebraska onu more guod crop nnd everything will boom. " During the pant week at South Omaha the receipts and Hairs of stock have been the largest oC any week In many months , and the general condition of the business bus been equally satisfactory. While prices havn not averaged as high ns during many weeks , they have been very satisfactory nnd sulllclent to yield the producers of Hlock 11 large prollt. Over $9 < MoOi ) was paid out for live stock at South Omaha during the week. The distribution uf this large Htlm of money over the country will serve ns n partial explanation at least of the better feeling and easier money market In the country. NliWS OP THE KACTOniES. The wholesale Hour business , and consequently quently the milling business , has shown de cided Improvement In this city and .state slnco April 1. January , I'Vlmiary and March WITC cxti finely dull months , but Hlnre then lliero has been a decided Im provement. Just at the present time Ne braska millers are liuvlng to hustle for wheat to keep their mills running , the supply In thlrt state being pretty well ox- liausted. It Is safe to s.iy that NebniKlca will go Into the new crop with no wheat left In farmers' hands. In Kansas and Mis souri the supply of wheat Is so small that n good many mills have been forced to close down anil tin- price of Hour Is $1 .IO p = r bar rel higher than It Is hero In eomieijurncp of this shortage. Nebraska Hour Is becoming stronger In Omaha every yi.ir , and no .NV- liraska miller now thinks of branding his Hour with the name of aom northern state tOimuUc It Hell bptler. Omaha is now very largely supplied with ( lower from the mills In this state at 1'lerce , Valctillin ? , Cedar JHaplds , Scrlbner , Albion nnd VVIIber. At the Linseed Oil works business Is re ported aw of larger volume than a year ago tind the prospect Is that the mill will run full tlnio so long as the supply of llax seed bold.s out. The crop of Nebraska seed Is already exhausted , a good deal having li.icn shipped out of the state lust fall , and tlio Omaha Linseed Oil works are now drawing on South Dakota , where there Is still a goot ] deal of seed In the farmers" hands. The dumand for lead pipe has been some what better this season , so far , owing to the fact that thcro Is more activity In liulldlng operations The Omaha Lead Pipe- works aci.'ordlngly are doing considerably more business than they were last spring ; , It may not bo generally known but It Is n. fit t Just thu same , Unit Omaha manu factures shot for the Kansas City and St. Paul Jobbers , ns well ns supplying the trade ( it home. This Is a branch of mnntifactnr- IIIB In which Omaha , appears to bo ttceldedlj In the lead. During the past week j. , . O. Doup linn loaded out n car of mattivsnes and lounges for Spokane and one for Salt Lalco City. Thn one to Salt Lake Is the second onu shipped there this season. Ilualness In this line shows Improvement and during Ui oust week five additional hands have been placed upon the pay roll. iManufactnrtTH say that there IB no excuse for ftnyono going without soap these time.1 ! . as soap Is about the cheapest commodity In the whole list of household necessities. Competition among the manufacturers Is al. ways very close , but during the past year or more' the volume of business has been small and everyone has been aftnr whul llttlo business there Is , with the result thill the competition has been Keener than ever. "WhIUi this condition has not been lo ; ho liking of the manufacturers It has glve.r thn ipnbllcthe. benefit of low nrlecs , The Oato City Malt compa'ny has com pleted the year's run , turning out U' thliif over 0,000 bushels of malt , and has closed down for tin ; summer. It usu.illj starts up again nbout September 1. The year has been a fairly untlsf.ietory one , lait the output might bo larger If the brewers would palronl/.u a homo industry. The cr- paclty of the malt houc-o Is about XO.OOO bush- nisi of barley per year and It might bo inn to Us ful ! capacity , aj ; thi > loeal brewers alone n. o 140,000 to ISO.OG'I bushels of malt ier year , llesldus Klvln < < umploynidiu lo ) abor Urn mannfaoturo < if malt crenu's a market for barley , wnleh Is grown to per fection In some localities In Nebraska , ln- ntond of using Omaha rniilt some of the brewers ship U In from St. Louis.

An olllclal es- tlrnato from Liverpool of what the total world's shipments lo European countries for the week were likely to amount to put It nt G.000,000 bushels. Some weakness fol lowed this , July , which opened at 7171V [ > c against yesterday's closItiK price of 70TJC , declining to 70ifnoc. New York wired that the French crop wns likely to show 10 per ci'iit less In area compared with hist year's acreage and 20 per cent poorer con ditions. It wns soon apparent that the buyIng - Ing of Muy wheat meant more cash wheat business for shipment and G3.COO bushels were reported Bold soon after the opening. The making known of the latter and of this repetition of the Krench crop deficien cies , he'ped to add to the buying enthus iasm with which the market opened and before 11 o'clock July had advanced to 71 © 71o. Although Berlin and Paris wheat markets sent slightly lower quotations , It was reported from St. Loula that -Ifi.COO bushels hard winter wheat and GO.OOO bushels of rye were sold there for ship ment lo France , and Hint moro wheat could have been disposed of. had Ihe wheat been procurable. Coming upon the top of the Liverpool cablegrams repeating the short age nnd poorer condition of the French wheat crop , the report of actual buying ot wheat for shipment to that country gave I the bears , who were short on wheat , a fresh spasm of reiHiiitance , ami they rushed July wheat up to 72fTf72'/te In their struggle for salvation. The closing for July was 72c. Corn opened easy on fine weather , large receipts and rather free local and western selling. It l allied later with wheat and on covering by shorts. Exports amounted to 22.OM bushels. The west generally talked of an enormous area. July opened un changed nt 2iT | 2l'Kc ' ; sold nt 24c , and rallied to 2fW2l"'se , closing at 2lc. Loe.-il rectipts caused a weak opening for oats and that condition prevailed for some time. The market rallied later as wheat advanced , and thu llnlah WHS Ilrm , with nbout all the loss recovered. Th" cash mar ket was quiet. July opi'iu'd a shade lower 17e , declined to 17W17'4o , rrcovered to I'WJlSe , and closed at 17ije bid. Provisions were without support and con sequently heavy , without much selling. The large hog receipts , present and pros pective , were the factors. The market opened wc.ik and declined ateadlly from the start , winding up the session at subslnn- tlally the lowest points of the day. At the close July pork was 17'A' lower at $ S.a ) ; July lard , lOe lower at $3.8 } and July ribs , 7'ic lower at $1.50.

The buyers could use the cattle , but they did not have to have them , and , 1C they were lo carry them ever until a Monday , they seemed to feel that they ought to be granted some concession from yesterday's prices. At any mto their bids were generally easier to start with , STilOe , according to the opinion of sellers. Huyers claimed at the puma time to be paying steady prlctR. lioth were right in part If the cattle were desirable and pleasing In the eyes of the buyers values were no different , but If not they weri' In some cases easier. Utiyero were pretty well filled up with Ijiilchnrs' stock yesterday and they wore not particularly In need of much more to day. The result was a slow and lower maiket. Stackers and feeders were In moderate supply. Desirable little stuff sold about steady , but fleshy cattle were not In de mand. Itcprescntatlve sales : NATIVKS. IIKEF STU13HS. No. Av. I'r. Ho.
