CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE
Dull Benson is Now at an End and Jobbers
Are Preparing for Big Trade.
MARKETS IN GOOD, HEALTHY CONDITION
Sagnr fiorx l ji I'lve Point nml Pros
pects Are I'm untitle for Still
llltthrr (luntntliins In
tln Nrnr Tiilnrr.
Them Is Utile doubt that Utnnlia Jobbers
and retailers uro now on tho ovu of ono
of the best seasons over experienced In this
tit v. With the month of September tho
rush of full business sets In and la wall
maintained until tho holiday. Iast year
was, of course, an exceptionally busy sea
son, but present Indications are that trado
will bo heavier than over bofon1. Omaha
ns a Jobbing tenter Is In better favor than
ever before, owing In ti large extent to tho
Improvement In the market Itself. Jobbers
are carrying better and larger assortments
than In previous years, their traveling men
uro morn numerous anil covering a larger
territory and the number of houses local
lnc hern In rnlillv lncreasini. Then, too
tho fait Is pointed to that the country
tributary to this market Is also In a must
prosperous condition. The smaller towns
are tnrmy ana enjoying mo nicriu imiiuu
ngu of tho surrounding farmers. The tun
pumptlon of all classes of goods has greatly
increased in wus section 01 me rouiiuj
ami u mill irniniiis. ami. ns merchants are
nhnwlni ri urenli r lenilenrv to liny their
applies hern than ever before. It Is thought
uii) o.iiiooK lor 101 ai jouiM'ia is wry en
couraging Indeed.
Another promising feature Is the Interest
being din. laved In the mining rail festivities.
Merchants by Hie thousands are preparing
to bo In Omaha during tho Ak-Sar-Bcn
onrnlal and make their fall purchases at
tho same time The fact that they can
have their railroad fare nald urovlded they
do buy their goods hero Is bound to bo a
drawing can: ami i'unsi'iUMiuiy jouners are
preparing for a hi nvy housa trade. Be
tullers will, ot course, also cotno In for
their share of the patronage, so that all
urunruos or traao win lie stimulated.
Tho markets as n whole are In n very
healthy condition. By far tho majority of
fl'irtuatloiiM have lu i n In the illreition of
higher prices and all Indications seem to
point townrd good, strong markets for no mo
iitno to come.
Mitirp Advnncc In .Minor.
Tho principal featuro to the wholesale
rrorcry market last week was the advauco
n all grades of sugar, amounting to fie
per hundred. The market Is very llrm nt
tho higher quotations and another advance
In the nenr tiitiirn would not bo surpris
ing. IWlncrUf nil over the country uro
wen Roici up ami are Kilting orucrs to no
tilled In turn, as they anticipate a still
greater Increase in the volume of trade In
the next few weeks. Jobbers nt this nolnt
state that the demand Is something
enormous ror mis season or tne year nnu
much heavier than In several years past.
The canned goods sit latton shows but llt
tlo change since Inst report. The only
fluctuation or any Importance Is tho ad
vance on tomntnes of L'VU'C, owing to the
reports of light pack In the west, which
have given eastern packera un opportunity
to rnlso tholr prccn. Cheeso Is still going
up und present indications aro that prices
will be nt 111 higher In the near fuiure. The
long continued drouths In Wisconsin have
dried up the pastures to such nu extent
that tho production of cheese has been
greatly diminished. At the name time
home consumption has been Increasing nnd
tho demand from abroad Is also unusually
heavy for this season, so a shortage has
been developed.
Tho market on dried frulta Is also In a
very strong position. This Is particularly
true of apricots. It Is thought that the
prices on the new crop of prunes will
Hhortly bo announced and the general
opinion Is that while the small sizes may
be quoted a little lower tho largo sizes will
bo higher than the.v were a ear ago.
There has not been much change In tho
coffee market since a week ago. The de
mand at tho present time Is very light and
prices aro weak, although an attempt was
made to spring tho market Uc, It was
nearly a failure, however, and did not In
crease tho amount of buying to an ap
preciable extent, linasled coffeo Is still
quoted the name as It was a week ago.
The association In control of tho Cali
fornia almond slt.iation announced Its
opening prices last week. It l.s claimed
that tho crop of importr-d almonds Is
smaller than usual nnu for that reason tha
export demand will bo exceptionally heavy
this year. The assuclalluii on that ac
count has advanced Its prices Ziic. over
last year's llgures. other lines remain Just
about where they were a week ago.
Hardware .Vlnrl.ct (lulet.
So far an price lluctiatlons are concerned
tho hardware market has been quiet during
the jiast week. There have been no changes
of enough importance to be worthy of
mention and Jobbers uro not anticipating
nny for tho Immediate future. As u gen
erul thing they nre looking for a good
healthy market as it result of the big de
mand that Is expected all over tho country
Everything at tho present time seems to
point toward a better feeling among the
Iron nnd steel manufacturers and unless
they misjudge tho situation they will have
plenty of business during tho coming
season.
Locally Jobbers seem to find nothing to
complain of. Trade Is moving along In
nice shape und preparations uro being Hindu
tor a good lively fall demnnd. In a short
time now the advance orders will begin to
move out at a rapid rate, nH It Is not long
before cold weather goods will be strictly
sonsonnble. Collections aro In good shape
and In fact everything Is In a most satis
factory condition.
Dry (Jooiln Market I'lrni,
Tho local dry goods market Is still char
acterized bv the samo activity that h is
provalled throughout tho season. Ordcri
for fall goods uro coming In nt n good,
rapid rate, and traveling men nre greatly
pleased over tho outlook for future bust,
ness. They say merchants are la elegant
shape and aro all counting on a big tall
demand.
Tho market is In good shape, taking
everything Into consideration, and tho
cotton goods market 1m particularly strong.
The Munition Is, of course, very unsettled
us yet. for no one can tell what tho price of
cotton will be. .Manufacturers are basing
their calculations on the S-rent cotton, but
whether that Is where It will land or n t
Is still a matter of speculation. A repro
sentatlve of n local house, In spoaklng of
the situation, Mild that ho would not bo
surprised If cotton did not go down to tho
S-cent mark, and In that event there would
bo nemo lively hustling lor goods. Tho
prices that are being quoted now nre '2ij
tier cent higher than thev were a year nu,
but last year was, of vmirso rather .ow.
I'ndervve.ir, hosiery and such lines are
bring held at very flint prices und gooj
Rtoclts are hard to Und.
(iood lli'iiiiiiiil ror Hunts mid Shoes,
There has been no special feature to tho
boot and shoe trade during tho past we. k
Orders are still being reco ved In good num
bers and tho number of buyers coming on
tho market is steadily increasing. Travel
lug men llnd a great doil to feel en
couraged over nnd prophesy that befora
tho season Is at an end tho ncords wld
compnre very favorably with thoic of nnv
previous fall. Advance shipments aro heln?
pushed out, particularly to the far West
und mountainous regions, wdiero they need
winter goods early In tho fall
Buhner Roods nri also Helling well nnd
fully as much hut-luesA in being transacted
a- could bo expected. Bobber smthlng li
sidling In good Hhnpe, and espeilull is that
true of mackintoshes.
Krult nml Produce.
fruit and produce men reported another
week of good trndo. The locil demand ban
been In unusually good nh.ipe fur several
weeks past, taking Into consideration the
hot weather. Shipping orders nre also
coming In freely. California fruits have
been In big demand, 1ml prices hold Just
about steady, Grapes, both home grown
and I'allfornl.i htoik. are plentiful, and are
meeting with ready silo. Tokay ;,re
quoted nt M and Concords at IS'oUJc. There
nothing particularly new In the vegeta
M" line.
The egg market Is still firming up nnd
quotations are now placed nt i:Hj5fllc, and
the feeling is tirm at that. Tho supply
continues rather light, while the demand
is heav.v Poultry remains Just about
steady at last week's prices. Hutu r Is aluo
unchanged.
The oyster season is onie more on ind
dealers report tho qualltv of the stock
received so far as exceptionally geo (or
the opening of the se.ison. The quotations
will bo found in another column.

between 75ij75sc nnd closed steady, c
over yesterday nt 7o'ic. The chief help
camo from higher Liverpool and Paris ca
bles and the small deliveries on September
contracts. Less than n million changed

CONDITION OF E.Mil.IMIt .MARKET.
Weather Is a Depressing; Influence,
lint Mneli .Money ( haiiucii lliinds,
LONDON, Sept. 1. Much money changed
hands In tho market today. New Issues of
capital, aggregating nearly 2,000,000, had
to bo met, besides X2,GO0,00O Interest and
dividends distributed.
Tho attendance on the Stock exchnnge
was small and thero was an absence of
business, generally dull weather proving
depressing. Homo rnllwnys were practically
nt a standstill. Northwester.is were easier
and tho disturbances In the shipping and
otner trnucs ac uiasgow, consequent on tne
probability of quarantine regulations tend
ing to affect Scotch railroads by causing n
falling oft In traffic receipts for a few
weeks. The continuance of continental In
quiry for Chinese properties resulted In a
general advanco of from & to 1 point, re
flecting tho Improved opinion of operators
on tho latest developments In the far east.
Thero was much Irregularity In Amer
icans. At tho opening thoy were dull and
below nnrltv. but grew firmer nnd closed
quiet. The Indisposition to do business was
owing io mo rnct mat tho xow York
Stock exchange was lowed. Southern Pa.
clflcs wero especially III in. Atchlsons wcro
in renowen ciemanu on increascil prollts in
place of tho expected decrease. Copper and
Kalllrs were steady.
The llnanclnl authorities Insist that tho
21,000,1)00 Bank of England reserve Is none
too large nnd that to nrevent an outflow ot
gold to Now York or Paris It Is essential to
maintain Interest rates here.
The Statist says: ' Amcrlcnnu will cnn.
tlnue to be In n position to take gold. Wo
thlllk tho "nsltlon Of the cottnn Irmln ni. iv
considerably affect the monev mnrket, us
attenuated stocks of cotton at Liverpool
means purchases from America when tho
new crop in avanauie.
The Statist nlso says: "TI ore Is a pros
pect that London will havo I i repnv a por
tion of the balance due to Fu.nce In order
to enable the latter to meet the new Rus
sian loan now being negotiated in Paris."

AMERICAN COAL IN EUROPE

I 'll hi I ii i',
LONDON, Sept. 1 American coal oper
ators and their agents aro apparently
Bwarmlug to England and rumors of many
Importaut deals tilled the ulr durlug the
last week. W. I'. Head of Chicago Is
horc on his way to Paris. Ho Is hopeful
of supplying both tho French and Russian
ravics with steam coal from West Vlrolnla.
Mr. Kcnd had a long Interview with tho
Ilubbian consul )csterday nnd was In con
sultation nt the Russian naval attuehe
today boforo proceeding to 1'nrls.
E. M. Hopkins of rhlhidclphln this morn
ing closed a coutract for 100,000 tons of
Ilnnna run-of-mlne coal for Immediate de
livery at Mediterranean ports. Mr. Hop
Kins said to a representative of tho Asso
ciated I'ress;
"Consumers aro not familiar with Amer
ican uuscresned coal, hut continental deal
ers here aro. Therefore, I am selling to
them, I do not anticipate trouble In se
curing chirtors."
I'risident Cas&att of the Pennsylvania
railroad has gone to Paris cn tho samo
business, while the presence of Robert
Pltcalrn, superintendent of tho Pennsyl
vania's Pittsburg division, nt tho Carlcton
hotel Is occasioning considerable gossip.
Mr. Pltcalrn goes to Scotland for u visit
to Androw Carntglo early next week and
It has been said there Is on foot a schemo
to provide tho Pennsylvania coal syndleato
with trnnsatlantle transportstlcn.
Mr. Pltcalrn said to a representative of
the Associated Piess: "My visit to Mr.
Carneglo Is not exactly on the errand sug
gested. I am not miito suro how long the
present coal famtno under existing condi
tions In England will continue. My per
sonal Idea U that American inlno owners
nro apt to find u better mafket in Medit
erranean or Black tea ports than In coun
tries whoio Knglnnd Itself villi be a
competitor. Under fair conditions 1 be

CATTLE As is ecncrally tho caso 111
Saturday there were practically no cattle
on sale today, only n few odds nnd end
being offered, for which there was little
.lemand, neither packers or yard traders
wanting supplies on Saturday.
'1 ho cattle inurkct has been In good shape
all the week. Tho supply has been Just
nbout normal, varying but little from last
week s receipts or from tho corresponding
week of last year. Tho demand was good
for all kinds of cattle, with tlin nniilhln
exception ot common grades of cows, and
i.i'ii-a iiaui nmu vury oausiuciory. i 110
bulk of tho receipts all the week wero
inade up of western cattle nnd were bought
lnrgcly by yard traders to bo sent hnelc
Into the country as feeder?. Packers wero
looking for killers, but found comparatively
lew that wero suitable for that purpose.
Cornfed steers havo not been In very
heavy supply tho past week. The demand,
however, was uood for the better urnrl'i
and tho market on most days was In ,103d
shnpe. For tho week It Is safe to call It
strong to 10c or 15c higher In somo cnse.i.
The medium grades, such nr come In com
petition with tho westerns, have not moved
so readily, and nro probably no more than
stendy for tho week.
Tho cow market has been the ono bad
feature of this market r.nd of others as
well. The sunnlv was liberal nml Mm ton.
dency was In the direction of lovvr price?
"ii ii muiirn. Eivni me nesi iiinus are
steady to a dlmo lower, and from that the
market shadex down to 10Ki25e lowpr nn dm
common stuff. It takes good cows now to
bring 13 or over, and commission men nro
advising their shippers not to sen I In loo
much cow stuff at the present tlmo and
give the market a chance to recover, din
ners are not so much dlff-rent thnn thv
wero at the close of last week, thmiph tiu.v
aro n little lower.
Bulls have sold falrlv wel rill thn w...lt
though the coarse heavy kinds are a llttlo
lower than they were u week ago. Tho
good stock bulls, however, have brougli'
good strong prices alt the week.
In splto of the fact that tho bulk of the
receipts this week were on tho feeder order
the market Is higher than It was ut the
"lose of last week. Tho good heavyweights

higher for tho week. Tho common kinds,
however, are not nny better, prices remain
ing Just about steadv. Stock hdrnru ham
also advanced nbout tho samo amount, but
cows havo not shown much Improvement.
Western grnss cattlo wcro In good supply
all tho week. The few bunches that wero
good enouch for killers bronchi limt nimm
steady prices. Texas cattlo nlso arrived in
good numbers and tnny bo called steady for
the week. Cows nre all the way from

HOGS Thero was about a usunl Satur
days run of hogs hero todny and the mar
ket started out Just about ntendy and fairly
active on the prime light weights. Tho
heavy hogs were rather slow and were left
until the last, but practically everything
sold In Just about yesterday's notches. Tim
coarso heavy weights, though, In some
cases, may havo sold a Utile easier. Latn
ti tho morning a train arrived with several
loads of hogs and tho market on those
vyas rather idovv for a time, but they were
finally bought up nt nearly stendy prices,
though the feeling was weak, particularly
on tho henvler weights.
The supply of hugs has not been very
heavy this week, being 11,170 head less than
last week, but 6,170 head morn than tho
same week last year. Tho general tendency
of tho market has been upward, us tin
table, of average prices will show. On Sinn
day the market took n ilmp. but advanced
slightly on Tuesday, held wlenily on
Wednesday, lost 2c on Thursday, but gained
5o on I rldav and held steadv again on
Saturdiiy. I he week then closed over tic
higher than It opened, or nearly steady

from an otllclal source that by reason of
