THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, JULY 10. 1004. 19 a GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET Cessation of Bain and Sunshine Carry All Prices Down. CHANGES SUDDEN AS TURN IN WEATHER I Trading- la Flares, bat Fairly Good Cah BoiIkm is Done Oats still at Fancy Flgnree. OMAHA. July 9, 19"4. "It la a long; lane that has no turn," runs the,, old proverb, and the turn In the prices of all grains came with the cessation of rains yesterday ami today. The bear who foretold the decline a day ago did not i"o far ami. Lower prVes surely came and the holders made not a little scuffls tot a time to sell. When they found rood buyers, prices would waver ond perhaps regain a shade, but values could not maintain- such fabulous figures as ruled the two days past. Btlll further declines ars looked for Monday, unless the weather man Is hiidly mistaken. Weather which put prices out of reach during the paet week proved as equally rotent at depressing them. Hardly had he sun shone on harvested fields oi wheat and half-drowned growing corn, after ten or twelve diivs of downpour, than values began to weaken. Then came the forecast of fair and warmenr weather, the long-Jookcd-for, over the entire west and south west. Bhowers, as predicted, will be few and well scattered over tho great terri tory. ' At Chicago the Inngs saw how things were going and liquidations followed. Hell ing brought lower values In all lines and the market closed from a cent to a half cent off In all lines. There was absolutely no trading In fu ture stuff at Omaha today. A fairly good cast market wasset up and some cash business done. There were offering In oota, but the holders could not tempt tho who were in need heeausa of fancy prices. The news of the proposed construction of Are elevators here la beginning to show Its effect'on the market. In that local elevator men are anxious to get winter stuffs on the long side. While this was not demon strated today, as there was practically no trading In futures, the sentiment has been apparent for some time past, and If values strike a moderate level within the next two weeks Omaha's prospective elevator men will be found to be on the buying side. Warm weather should bring about a more brisk session each day at the 'change. The floor has been almost deserted during the last few weeks. With the movement of July stuffs business will receive a stimulus ana activity In all lines may be expected. There- Is a good demand at Omaha for corn, but receipt continue to be light. There Is a prospect of heavier receipts dur ing the coming week, but nothing mora then can be easily taken care of.

The market the last few days has been much more satisfactory to sellers than has 1 been the casein some time and values on eer steers are quoiea tuaay mum iiigner than low time Wednesday, the situation has- Tiiatcrially Improved all around. To day's markt'U ruled nominally steady, with a limited numtWC Ol) sale. The cow market has '' been satlsfee tory th past week and fiudtuatlons In that division were much less maf Kd than In beef steers. The supply, while 3nb' fair. Just about equalled the demand,--, conse quently prices show no material Change from a- week ago on good grades, v Thin stock fared rather poorly and common can ning grades are tending lower from dsy to day. There was little life in the feeder division, during the week. Yard traders took care of the few arrivals, but at prices not overly satisfactory. The country demand contin ues slack and the trade is more or less un certain at the prevent time. HOGS The market .opened rather slow, most.'y about 24c lower, at which basis tradir.g was largely dbne. Packers started in to bear the market and first sales were at the decline noted. Later conditions im proved slightly and after the first 'round the trade strengthened slightly, when good grades sold pretty close to steady at yes terday's basis. For ths week the' trade fluctuated con siderably, ruling higher at the start and finishing sower later, with prices todny showing only about stesdy with last Sat urday.

CONDITIO OF OMAHA'S TRADE Dallnees of Mldsnnamer Benson Is Haw at Hand. July Is Invariably a dull month with th retsll trade of all cities. It Is the month when psoole of the well-to-do clsss of the cities begin to depart tor tneir annual outing in the woods or mountains or at the seashore. Their departure brings a de mand for certain lines of outing goods snd for a time creates a very considerable tilde In (his Class of merchandise, but the demand Is soon satisfied. When once beyond the confines of their home cities the summer vacation crowds rease to be consumers of merchandise in the regular channels and their trade Is lost so rar as the home merchants are concerned. Thus far this season the weather at Omaha snd In all the territory surround ing the city has been such as to discour age rather than encourage ths vacation Idea. At the same time people who can get away are very likely to take a trip regardless of weather conditions, and, so far as can be learned, there will be tha usual number 0 absentees during ths summer with the consequent diminution of trade. Another characteristic of the retail trade thia summer Is the smaller demand for hot weather goods, due to the prevailing cool and wet weather. Two weeks of continued hot weather would unquestionably be a great help to the retailers In many lines. Down in the lobbing district there is a fair business doing for this season of the year. AS a matter of fact business is by no means active In the majority of lines, but no one is disappointed, as renditions are very much as hod been anticipated. The midsummer season Is never a very active period with jobbers and a good manv had anticipated that this summer woufd, if anything, be more quiet than usual. Anticipations of this sort were based on the well known fact that presi dential yours are usually dull In S business way. Just at the present time trade may be snld to be waiting upon the weather. From most all sections of tributary country come reports to the effect that all crops so far have done well. Small grains ars well rdvanced and promise an abundant yield In most all localities tributary to this city. Corn, the chief crop, though. Is backward and Is not as far advanced In growth as usual at this season of the i'ear. The plant In most sections Is In a isalthy condition, except on low, wet ande, where It has sustained some dam age from water, and all that Is required to promote rapid growth Is less molstTiro and more sunshine with the accompanying warm nights. 80 long as the cool and cloudy weather continues, a doubt as to the final outcome ot the corn crop may be said to exist and consequently a ten dency toward conservatism in all trade matters. I A late corn crop, which always means more or less soft and unmerchantable ?orn, Is dreaded more this year than usual, or the reason that prices of cattle hare been so low for -some little time back that there wts no money In fattening them for market, and the fattening of cattle or other live stock Is about the only use that can be made of soft corn. Owing to the crop outlook business at the present time may he said to be In a waiting mood. Necessities are being sup plied as they arise, but there is no dis position to anticipate immediate wants until the requirement of the future are better understood. Thers is, however, a very apparent optimistic feellnr notice am amonr business men a feeling that trade conditions In the main are all right and that barring a few disturbing factors everything is satisfactory that the season as a whole will show up a very satisfac tory rolum of trade. Money la very easy and Is seeking In restmeni. ' Loans on approved collateral sn be made at a lower rate of Interest than for some time back. A disinclination on the part of business men to branch out or do anv speculative buying appears to be ths cause of the accumulation of sur plus capital seeking Investment. CURFEW ORDINANCE IN OMAHA President W. O. Henry Addresses the Pnbllc on Its Enforce) ment. OMAll. July 9. To the Friends of Youth: 1-t verv generally known that there has vton in existence In the United States for i-ome years curfew associa tion, organle'it4h-JP'S'.tctn.f-lPuthi from the vices pr the streets ot cities ana towns. Thers was organised in this city some years ago a local branch of the laid association, and for some tlmo after ths adoption of tbe curfew ordinance it was enforced and gav very general eatisfac-tlon.- There waa following its enforcement a notable decrease In crimes among youth. It seemi, however, that the ordinance fell Into" disuse several years ago, and efforts have begn made annually through petitions of citiaena snd the voting 'of congregations of various religious denominations to se cure its enforcement, but apparently with very little success. A xaeetlng of the, association was again held on Tuesday night of this week at ths room of the loung Men's Christian asso ciation, and after the work bad been re viewed very thoroughly a resolution pre- Availed that ths mayor and council begin at the earliest moment the enforcement Of tha ordinance. It does not appear to be a doubtful reform, but on the contrary is full of human' consideration In the protection of youth In general from the vices of the street It Is now claimed that fully 4,000 cities have the ordinance in force, in fact, testimonials from the officials of numerous cities whefs tha ordinance has been en forced without exception certify to its great value In the lessening of juvenile delinquencies. In addition to the officials of titles giving the reforms their endorse ment it has. without exception, received that of th olergy, press, boards of trade and School boards, and has universally been endorsed at conventions of educators in all parts of ths union. After the meet ing of Monday night of this week a confer ence was hsd with Chief of Police Dona hue, in which he stated, after further ex planation of the ordinance, that all chil dren, when found on the streets after cur few hour, had to be taken homo to ascer tain ths wishes of their parents, and they were not Incarcerated, as many supposed, when parents became responsible for them. The chief very readily oonsented to an Im mediate enforcement of the ordinance. Hon. Louis Berka, judge of the city court, waa also interviewed on the subject, and he conourred heartily In the ordinance and its snforcement. He believes it will prove a great blessing In the case of multitudes of fathers hhd mothers who have wayward boya and girlg who defy home restraint. It was the Intention st the meeting of Tuesdsy night- to hold another session at ths rooms of the Tourfg Men's Christian association on Monday night nest, but In view of the enforcement of the ordinance by tha officials without additional petition ing said meeting will not reconvene. Sincerely hoping that the youth of our city will from this time on enjoy the bene fit accruing to the Inhabitants of other cities, social and moral, where ths ordi nance has proved such a great blessing in the protection of the children of all homes, I have the honor to be, very respectfully, W.
