Now Hint the month of OlUOXt la at an nd, local Jobbeis art matting oompaffco a With I he amount of business trans ictel during tii- mourn with that of tha oofra punning peuud of iast year. While it cannot be sa d that there have been Mf Very Important gaim over last yenr, there has, nevertheless, bevn Just an much busi ness done thl.4 yeur as ever before, i he llrst half of the month there was a marked In crease over tne corresponding peilod of Uat year, but later on. owing to the pro longed warm weather, there was com paratively little re-ordering and conse quently there was a fal.lng off. In vc w Of the UnfaMOnaMo weather, Jobbers think Uiey have done remarkably well to Keep aven with last season. They Ml that all that la needed from now on Is normal Weather and under those conditions they have no fear but what trade will go far aheud of any prevlou year. Ho far an advance orders are concerned, fio one haa any complaint to offer. Travei ng men nre selling more spring goods than aver before this early in the season, who. h Would Indicate an unusual amount of con fidence In future business. There have been no more than the usual mount of fluctuations In prices since last report and In fact most lines may be said to be unchanged The few fluctuations that have taken place. It will be not.ced. gtre mostly In the direction of higher prlc- s. The general market could not well be In a more healthy condition than It is at the prewent time anil both wholesalers an'l retailers have no fear of values reaching a lower level for some time to come. Soft Sugar u UMl Loner. The grocery market has not shown any jensntlonul change during the week. There re, however, ii few fluctuation which ore Worthy of notice. Among these Is the a'l vance and decline In the price of soft ugar. The llrst of the week prletB were advanced 6 points, but later on the market eased off 10 points, ho thai the market at the close of the week Is about 1 -10c lower on softs than at the clo.;e of the previous week. Granulated sugars did not change during the Week. The coffee murkat still continue In a Very strong position, owing to the fact th.it reports from Hunt on are wry discouraging. It Is claimed that the crop has been seri ously damaged by prolonged dry weatli r nd as a result the tendency In to advunco prices. The mflrket Is now about Ho h.gh'"r than It was a week ago and during the last ten days prices have advanced fully MM. In farinaceous good there haa not been much change. Oatmeal, however, Is a little firmer and beans and practically all Other lines remain unchanged. Dried fruits are selling rather slowly at the present time. This Is doubtless owing to the warm weather, which always ma terially decreases the consumption, but with the advent of cold weather the de mand will doubtless Improve materially and aome nre of the opinion that It might re ult In slightly hither prices. The only Chang noticeable In the market for canned good In tin- continued tendency toward higher prices on tomatoes. Holders are confident that advances are bound to take place In the near future and conse quently ure very Indifferent sellers. The ropo market Is higher than It was a Week ago. This applies to both slsnl and Manila, the latter having advanced a full cent per pound. Other staple Mnes of groceries have not changed enough to be Worthy of mention. I. lulu Demand for lr floods. Dry goods Jobbers have been having rather a quiet time during the lust we. k Vary few merchants have been on the market nnd mall orders have also been rather light. The cauae of this Is. of course, found In the unseasonable weather, wlili h retard trade In the country. Merchants nave not sold enough of their winter goods yet to break up their stock, conse quently they are not buying more until there are nlgns of their present supply be ing exhausted. Thero Is not much 0i m plalnlng being done In the country, how ever, a they feel certain that It Is only a question of time when business will be a brisk as they could desire. The way In which merchants are placing their orders for spring goods Is taken as n Indication that they huve confidence In the future. Traveling men ure very meek pleased with the amount of stock they have Bold this early und are very hopeful tot the future. Tho market continue In a very strong position und purtlculurly I that true of cotton goods. Although there huve been ro great change In colored cotton, the i.uirket Is In a very strong, healthy condi tion. Lcudlng lines of denims, ticks and ahlrtlnga have been advanced slight, y dur ing the lust few days and the mills are aald to be well sold up. 1'nbleached cottons have not be n advanced, but bleached nods ure very firm and further advance In the near future on both the bleached and unbleached would cause no surprise. Print cloth are now at the highest price reached for more than a year. The present price lu 3c. Local Jobbers have received word to the effect that on November 5 an advance will tuku place on American pr nti, shirtings anil competing Hues amoun lng to about vo. Mournings, Indlgoes and other staple prints ure also very firm und further advances are looked for at most any time. From th t.bove changes it 1b Been that the dry goods market Is In a good, h ultliy Condition and those who are posted mi the altuatlon say that dry goods ut present price are good property. Huron ate MnrUeta t'nc lisniiril. Hardwure Jobbers nre also feeling to soma extern the effect of the continued pleasant woulimr. There Is, of course, but little de mand n the OOUntO in the present tlino for uucii lines a stoves and that class of goods and consequently orders ai rather limited. Taking the month us a whole, however, Jobber suy that they have done lullj as much business as they did a year ago, and ft result they are making no complaint. Ho far a the market Is concerned there lu nothing startling to announce. Although there has been some talk Of late of n ilrjt) In i lie price of nulls investigation show thai that lias been brought about from tha luct that some Independent concerns have recently been look iig for a market for their goods and In some Instance cut prices to some extent That lacl. however i- not affected the getierul market in tho least. Another feuture which has perhaps helped to create the impression that nulls are lower MOM about Irom tire readjust ment of price lu Chicago, until ubout a v.-ck ago the Chicago prices were higher than those quoted by Omaha Jobber und as a result prices were reduced slightly In Chicago, which brought them down about In line with Omaha quotation. 8o far an tbl market 1 concerned, then, there hac been no change whatever and in fact ilie market may be said to be In a good, heulthj condition. Other lines arc also un changed und thoi who ought to know ray that tin re I- ro reason fur looking lor suy Unporti mi eimiige lor some time to coma, 'i ins marital is now batter supplied with UnJBgd oil than it lias been for some llltlo time par i.

In the gins market, us the demand continue quite heavy, with prices unchanged. lei, i lire (iood Advancing. Attention hu been called the last week or two 10 tha fact that leather goods are advancing. That fact whs vt-rv noticeable luBt week, us Jobber ay that they arc now jiaylng Iron ttt to lo cent nunc per pair for their shoes than they were u week ugo. There Is a total udvuucc since Oi oi lier i of about ID per cent. The cause of the upwar I t. ndo.icy of the market U found In the fail iliut hides arc advancing and also In the fact that manufacturers cannot gi i tin leather us fas' a they ncc.l It.

The trad, altuatlon has not changed much during the week, a unseasonable weuihjr Is making business a little slack both In a retail and wholesale way.
