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.

ket Tor future delivery and tho open and

the market during the week. The large
blocks of these stocks which were taked

point to another kept alive thr Impression
of the crganlxed character of the move
ment. The choice of stocks for operations
showed 'tome partiality for the so-call;d
Morgan shares, following the large buying
of Reading yesterday. 1 he stock continued
conspicuous today, with an advance of
nearly a point, and there was an active
movement as well in the Southern railway
shares and in United States Steel preferred.
There was a large demund for Pennsyl
vania and the rear of the list moved nar
rowly, but held generally above last night's
level until the appearance of the bank
statement, when prices saased back to last
night's level. The insrkethardened in the

CATTLE Over 1.000 cattle were reported
In the yards, but the most of them were
stock billed through. The run of the week
also shows a considerable Increase over a
week ago, but several thousand head less
than for corresponding week last year.'
The market the last few days has been
much more satisfactory to sellers than has

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

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. O. HENRY,
President Omabn Curfew Association.
