OMAHA. Nov. 16.
Wholesale dealers In practically all Unci
report Immediate business on the Increase.
The IU si of last week very few huwrs ar
rived on the mnrket, but toward the closo
they ciitno n more freely t nun in several
weeks nasi. It Is thought that this shows
clearly that the cooler weather has stimu
lated biivlng In the cuiiutrv to a marked de
gree and that retailers' stocks are going to
pieces at ii rapid rate. Mailorders havo
also Increased both ln size and number tlm
lust rew days ami traveling men aro meet
ing with better success Iu picking up
orders. It may then bo said that tho gen
eral business situation In Omaha and sur
rounding territory Is In better condition
than It was a week niro. Until lubbers and
retailers nre nuturiilly in better spirits nuq
nre more contldeiit than over that with
aiivthlug llko scasnnablo weather they will
sell more goods this jc.ir than they hnvd
In any previous yeur.
as nn indication or tno general pros,
perltv Jobbers aio pointing tu the wuv III
which merchunts havo been meeting their
bills Iu splto of the ract that the mild
weather bus seriously curtailed the retail
trade. It Is said that collections nre now
in better shape than they were a year ngn
at this time. One Jobber In particular said
thnt he had offered his customers n small
discount on bills paid from November 1 to
isnvemiior in nun mill lie was greau. sur
prised at the number nf merchants who
took advantage of tho offer. The discount
was so small that he did not think many
dealers would pay any attention tu it nml
I ho fuct that they did must show that they
have plenty of leady cash.
Thero wero no very sensational changes
In market quotations last week, most o!
tho fluctuations being of minor Importance,
Prices on' the whole are good and llrm, with
not much prospect of thero being uny rad
ical changes in the near future.
Siihiii' Steady nl tilt' Decline.
Slnco the sensational droit In Uu nrlee of
sugar mentioned a week ngo there has been
no cluinge 111 the situation. Local joDIkt.I
are swamped with ordeis, as they cannot,
begin to get enough stock lo supply tho
demand. Retailers uro nil anxious to stock
up for future requirements at tho present
low prices, but they have to content them
selves with only a small l ruction of their
orders. Wholesalers are doing their best
to supply the wants of their customer, but
the demand W so great thnt It Is estimated
that thero are unlllled orders In the hands
of Omaha Jobbers iimouiitlug to 2.6i"i,i"l
pounds of sugar. Jt inn v safely bo su.il
that thcie has been more sugar wold In thn
last ten days than ever beforo In the his
tory of Omaha ns u Jobbing center.
There hits been no quotable ehangn Iu thn
coffee murkt't slnco last report, but advices
contlniio to come In from Santos ituting
that the damage done to the crop by dry
weather Is fully ns great as previously es
timated. As n result the market Is good
und llrm, ns well us active.
Dried fruits are also iinchnugcd In price,
but the demand Is Improving, probably
owing to the conler weather. H Is thought
that with tho advent of severe winter
weather the demand will Increase rapidly
und that prices will llrm up a trifle.
The canned goods mnrket Is very llrm nil
nil lines. Stocks tu packers' hands nro
lining rapidly cleaned up and it Is claimed
that Indications for a continued ntroiir;
market mo very favorable.
The only change nf Importance In fari
naceous goods Is a slight iidvaneo on nut,,
menl. This has been brought ubollt by Iln
high price of oats.
The demand for cheese has been Increasing
of Into and ns the supply of Octnber-msdt
stock Is rntber light prices nre ndvanclug.

So fnr us other staple Hues nre concerned
thrro Is not much to be said, ns prices nl n
Iu practically tlm same position they wero

Tho demand continues uotlvo and Jobber
report their sales us being considerably
ahead of last year.
' llnrtlMiirc About Slendy.
Hardware! Jobbers aro feeling the effects
of the colder weather by tho Increased
demand fur nil seasonable Hues. Accord
ing lo reports received from tho country
retailers nre now doing u rushing business
in nil cold weather goods and as their
stocks aro not abnormally largo they uro
sending In quite liberal orders.
The market'has been rather featureless,
as all lines nro Jtlit admit steudy for llin
week. Thero has been no chiinge In wlrn
and nails since thn drop mentioned II week
Hgo. Steel goods nro also slendy nt llin
decline previously mentioned. Thero Is, of
course, somo uncertainty about steel hoo.Im
owing to tho talk about the I'limpetttlon
which the steel trust Is to have, but still
local Jobbers are nut ut nil worried over
the situation ami predict that the market
will remain Iu a good, lunllliv condition
throughout the coming season.
The demand fnr window glass Is verV
brisk 'ind jobbers report the sales far
niieiul of nil prmloiis records. There hns
been no change iu prices ot late, but now
that ti:i factories nrn once more at work
those who nre lu a position to know say
thev would not be surprised If ii slight
drop should tukn place beforo tho tlrst nt

prediction, but sun tnev iiiitnii mat siicii
