The retail merchants of Omaha con- tinun to report a Very fair volume or trade Ia pito of the fact that. It Is the mid. Hummer period. when business Is expected to ho at IL very low ebb. Considerable improvement ha taken pIaco In the jobbing trade the last few days. The dry weather had gIven rise to same tears and many requestM to hold back orders had been received. The ralna that have fallen In some ScctionM of the state havolTad a good effect and shippIng orders have been numerous the laat two or three days , Ona Ittrgo house clitLms.tbat it has received shipping orderti for dRy cars of merchandise. will Sugar Be Senrect Whdlesaie grocers report but little change iii their line of business. 'l'ho volume of trade remains about the sama itnd the uittrket Is unusuaily steady. The future of th sugar market , however , Is somewhat uncertain , as the demand contifltle5 to be oxceedingiy heavy , and local merchants would flot be surpriseil to see a scarCity In the next few weeks. Some of the reflnerles hM'e already vithdrawn from the market entirely and others report that they are oversold from a week to ten days. Present quotations on cheese are from c to o higher than LI. week ago. The only other change of any Importance Is the rice of corn syrup , which advanced c inst week. Hardware jobbers report a very nice midsummer - summer ( mile. The reported dry weather 31i the country does not seem to check their ' " . orders to any appreciable extent and none UI ; yet have been countermanded. SnrceIy anY fall goods have been shippel into the ' country hut It vil1 not be long before the 1 , movement wiil begin. As anticipated a - week ago , freight rates were restored by t the , railroads , but no advance as yet has taken place on hardware. This , however , is F largol ) ' due to the foresight and generosity of local dealers , who ale willing to send f out their present large supply of stocic without charging the dealer with tile extra freight. Print PCOIIe Combine. - Dry goods are now moving Into the country - try at. a rapid rate , Local jobbers have ' received the largest share of their fall supiiiee and they are working long hours In order to meet the wants of the country merchants , Some lines or fall goods , however - over , have not been received , as there is a greater ( lemun(1 for them thait the inanu- racturers can stipply. The report ban just been received that the Fall Iliver ntanu- facturerS of print cloth are endeavoring to form a combination and shut down for tour weeks during August and i3eptember. in the hope that the market will be improved. Jobbers are of thu opinion , however , that such action wiil have little or no effect , be- "nil' , " th. nremnt sunnlv of nrlnt cloth is something 'liko2.000.01J0 jlcees and a four weeks hut-tIown would meall the elimination - ' tion of only about QOOU ) Pieces at the : most , which is a comparatively Ins Ignilteant r amount. This being the general opinion , It is doubtful Whether the market wilt be effected by such a combination and come- ( juently jobbers will not be In a rush to liaco th lr orders for that class of goods. Boot and hoe merchants are at the prc- ent time besieged with traveling men , who - . . . are selling samples of spring goods. It looks now as though there would be very little difference In the prlcu of fall and spring goods , and consecluefltlY the much talked of advance in shoes does not seem to be materiallaing at a very rapId rate. OrIors for fall goods are ti1l coming in at a very satisfactory rate and jobbers as a rule are very vetl pleased wIth the trade they are having. Scarcely any goods have been shipped na yet , but It will not be long before country merchants will be wanting their SUpliliOl and then tile jobbing houses will assume a more lIvely air. Rubber goods men are also satisfied wIth their volume of business and are beginning to ship goods out , especially into the north- vetcrn Part of tue country. Luniber Business 1proVed. k Lumber merchants report but little change in their lIne , but what change there Is is for the better.

This movement grew out of th consultatIons reported as having taken imlace between the executives of the Canadian Pacific itmid time Great Northern anti the resulting rumors that the long drawn out dispute over tram- continental passenger rates lead been adjusted - justed , 'rho buyIng by London In thee taco of time downward tendency of sterling exchange , vhIeh Is already within meusureable dIe- trunco of time gold importing 1)011)1 , WilS rather unexpected. Money continued easy In London , but It showed 1tolf sensitive to the demands for gold. The present ease in exchange is duo as yet to offerings of grain anti cotton futures , but rates nrc botimid to yield further as gralme anul cotton come forward and time pressure on London is likely to lead to borrowing in New 'York or an Inmport movement of gold. There was a fair demand for bonds to. day , but lrlces were nut well held. 'rlmere WUII a reaction of 3-S to 104 In the price of the neuv government is "when issued. " The bank statement reflected continued operations on account of time gou'- erument loan , the decreases in cash being clearly dume to payments of subscriptIons imeto the subtreasury. The heavy decrease ill deposits and time contractIon In loans are not easily accounted for. The loan decrease - crease was probtebly due to operations lie government bonds by banks which have held government depostts , a reduction in which seems clearly indicated.

The decline in the grain movement heaves the gmanger roads particularly at a disadvantage compared wIth last year , when thee demand for export had already commenced to move grain in large qumn- titles.
