OMAHA TRADE CONDITIONS ,

DRY GOODS QUITE BUOYANT.

Unchanged Collections Blow
A Good Supply of Produce on
Jfuml QuotntloiiH.
Omaha Trndo Jlcvlmv.
Money continues In abundant supply ,
bankers reporting that they have more I ban
enough for all legitimate wants. Hates nro
Bteudy nt 8 per cent per annum. About Sep
tember 1 tlio market may bo expected to
hiirJen , us about that tlmo the country will
want funds to move grain , but capital Is ac
cumulating In this city rapidly , and no great
stringency is feared at any tlmo this fall.
Kxohangu Is , as usual , Sl.OO per 81,000.
In general merchandise values are un
changed , except in the few instances noted ,
Sugars are held steady by refiners at t-7.82
J7.CO for granulated , but buyers nro a llttlo
orf. Coffees are dull and neglected , ns It Is
thought lower prices will prevail before the
Jst prox.
Salt fish nro excited and higher.
California canned fruits are quiet. There
is a full crop of everything except apricots ,
nnd Jobbers think pricss will not bo any
higher , to say the least.
Dry goods uro lively , und n bouyant tone Is
felt in the speculations as to the fall trade ;
that it will bo heavy is the universal opinion.
All lines of goods are steady and in nctlvo
demnnd. Dark fancy prints und printed
Miteens are universally called for ; the latter
have proved the success of the KCIISOII. Knit
poods nro looking up , while hosiery is quiet ,
fc'omo demand exists for women's underwear ,
nnd prospects for trade In this line uro better.
Lumber continues quiet , but signs
of Improvement are manifest and a
big trade U looked for the balance
of the year to make up for the dull spring
trade.
Hoots nnd shoes are doing as well , if not
hotter , than other lines , nnd a heavy trade In
pxeoss of last year Is plainly in sight. The
Patent Leather Manufacturers' association
of the United States has icsolvcd to advance
the price of patent leather 10 ( < 15 per cent.
All but four of the makers of these goods in
this country uro In the combination.
Hardware is quite active , with prices
fttoady and unchanged. It will bo seen that
the outlook for n heavy increase In general
trade this year over last Is very good
indeed , nnd with nn easy money
market promising to continue into the win
ter , our inorclmnlH can alfbrd to bo very well
ojntont with tlio situation.
Collections tire very good in the country ,
but not ut all satisfactory in the city.
The produce markets have been fairly well
mii'pliod with fruits and vegetables , in gooil
condition , though some southern stuff comes
in very soft. Melons are cheaper. Lemons
have declined $1.0l'@J.OO Per box thu past
week and It looks us though they might
po lower. Herrles are about out ol
the season. Vegetables are supplied
from the truck gardens nonr by , nt irregular
prices , depending on the number of loads In
Bight nt tlio time of purchase. Chickens are
inoie plentiful and prices lower. Huttcr ant
rhccse Imvo ruled dull owing to tlio warm
v.'outhcr from the faot that largo stocks have
accumulated nt Chicago without any great
shipping demand.

Tun 13un.Vhon ] wheat opened with a big
advance Monday morning , conservative bulls
expressed themselves to the effect that if
prices were as high at the cad of the week
as they were at tlio beginning they should bo
satisfied , for the week began and ended In
what is practically the same notch. The ad
vance that was established Monday morning
has boon held , with Intermediate fluctuations
of greater or loss violence , and the market is
soomlnirly well grounded and legitimately
Htronir. In Now Yoric , after regular trading
hours to-day , wheat was bid up jift ) ( , ' e. Lo
cally the market was very firm , and plenty
of wheat was wanted at Xjlc above tlio
opening range , which range was J4(21e ( bet
tor than yesterday's closinir. The close was
quite at the top and the fooling was strong.
The only decided sign of weakness that was
shown during the day was whou It was
given out that Monday's receipts
would bo In the neighborhood of 241) )
cars , nnd Inter when nn estimate of TOO.OOO
bushels Increase In the visible supply was put
in circulation. It is by no means certain
that the Increase will bo so largo , or that
there will bo any Increase nt all. Shipments
from western points have been free nil the
week nnd export clearances abroad , while
the homo milling demand has absorbed a
great | deal of grain in Now fork nnd olso-
wlicriof which no account is made until
the end of the week. Tlio domestic situa
tion Is especially strong. Heports from the
northwest continue to como in bad , and it Is
said that there has boon more buying of
who.it during tlio hist two or thrco days for
railroad people than for the previous six
months. Northwestern , St. Paul and Hock
Island people are outspoken bulls on the
prospects along their own lines nnd tribu
taries. Tlio sentiment of tlio inoculative
crowd is bullish pronouncedly possibly too
much so for a speculative advance and not
strong enough to absorb the stuff that might
bo tempted out in tlio realisation of small
profits. If the spring wheat crop is not 1U@
25 per cent below an average unload of H ) @
2 > per cent nbpvc , as many anticipated up to
ouito , recently , then the latest reports and
estimates are away off. A Yankton , Dak. ,
dispatch was shown on change announcing
that now wheat had been received there. It
is well to know , however , that spring -vhcat
grown in that part of the territory wlicro
harvesters are now at work is not a drop m
the bucket. Harvesting In the southern udgo
of the "wnout bolt" will not begin for ten or
twelve days and the spring wheat harvest
season will not end in the northern counties
until the middle of September. It usually
lasts about twenty days. September opened
ut 8:1140 : , ranged 83) 84tfu and closed at the
outside. October , in winch there was only a
moderate trade , opened at S-lc , sold up to
84 fe and left off at the top. The strength
at tlio close may have boon duo tb [ some ex
tent to the inability of scalpers to sell a little
and go homo short and stand hedfjbdj in the
privilege market us Is their usual custom.
Now York wired nil the way from twenty-
lour to fifty boat loads taken for ex
port and exporters were represented to bo
scurrying around clear up to the last trying
to got what they had offered to soil the night
before without , in every case , getting the
propcity first. Lute cables were bullish on
weather nnd demand. The ndvnneo for the
day was ! ivlJfe. Tlio corn market was
null but steady and quotations nt tlio close
record an ndvnnca of ° o for the duy.
Oats were firmer curly. Receipts were
light and estimated arrivals for Monday only
moderate und duo to last night's rain with
the belief that harvesting would bo further
delayed. Near futures advanced J n o
to SSJ c , August 24njfc- , September nnd Oeto-
ber 24Jfc , with an unexpected sale of a round
lot of now ? > To * 2 to go to store nt 25c. A sub
sequent weakness occurred all along the line
and tlio curly slight advance was fully lost.
The arrivals of new onts , though Increasing ,
have been so liuhtto date that jfny market
movement was not expected lor a week at
least. Cash oats were quiet wjth old ut a
premium and No. 2 in store quotable at about
23k , c.
The provision trade was considerably
stronger. No grc.it amount of activity was
exhibited , but the confidence displayed pre
vious to Thursday's break was in a great
measure recovered , and higher prices ap
peared to bo expected quito ojsily. In the
upward movement witnessed lard Igd the
other leading lines and closed at an actual
advuuco of 1517Xc. ( The day's apprecia
tion in short ribs was 7) < i@12c , and In pork
5@10e. _

Tnn I3nK. I CATTi.n Trade was fair for
Saturday , about everything being sold. The
general market was about the same as at the
close last night. The flood of Texans com
nienced on Monday , nnd averaged half the
cattle on sale each day. Sellers know 11
would keep up for two or three days at least
and buyers , having means of information ,
knew it , too , und were ready to stand from
under. Another source of weakness was the
largo number of poor to common natives.
Buyers In the states have made some money
during the past two months or so on good fal
cattle and that kind being about all mar
keted lu some localities greedy buyers go
about the country making good bids on cattle
that farmers had no idea of selling yet , ami
which are not at all lit for markets.

FINANCIAL.
New YORK , August 4 , [ Special Telegram
to Tim UKK. ] STOCKS The most Important
features in the stock market the past week
were the sudden changing of traders from
Granger stocks to the Vunderbllts and the
subsequent retirement of the former to neo-
end place In activity , the favorable adjust
ment of cable dlfllcultlcs und un advance in
prices. This agreement will also have u gooi
effect on land linos. This , It is believed , wil
Increase the receipts of the Western Union
company , and with the enhanced income
which the company will derive under the
now oasis of rates it is believed that the
earnings will sufllco to Increase the dlvldcnt
rate. The financial and physical condition ol
Lake Shore , and probably also of Michigan
Central and Canada Southern seems to fully
Justify the pxpcctod Increase in their divi
dend rato. The earnings of these roads have
boon wall maintained throughout the depres
sion in business , and the conservative policy
pursued by the munagomcut has enablct
them to expend largo amounts in improve
ments and renewals of roadway and rolling
stock , thus keeping the road in the hlghosl
state of cfllciency. In view of the good croj
production und ino certainty that a largo per
centage of this must go to the seaboard for
foreign shipment , the prospects for business
nro brlgh' The advance In Northern Pn-
cltlc stor has been checkedby the contest
which 1ms arisen between that company nnd
the Oregon Navigation company for posses
sion of the Coeur-D'Alcno country. These
complications were duo to the failure on the
part of the Union Pacific to perfect a Joint
lease with the Northern Pacific of theOregon
Navigation. It Is believed that the difficulty
is In process of adjustment , if not already
settled , and that the bright prospects of this
company and all Its allied system ! ) , as well as
of Union Pacific , will not bo mnrrcd by un
profitable strife. In relation to Union Pa
cific , although the earnings of the company
for the month of .Tune show a loss from those
ot last year , It's future is promising. The
bill to fund its debt to the government has
been Introduced In the United States senate ,
whore no opposition to Us passage is ex
pected , mid this move , It is thought , will
probably result in the measure becoming
law at this session. In addition thereto Oregon
gen Short Line shows largely Increased
earnings , which gives the company a surplus
over the actual charges Instead of n deficit ,
as in previous years. The business future of
the country , based U ] > on the crop yield nnd
the certainty that there will bo a foreign de
mand for all our surplus , is giving moro con
fidence to Investors in securities , nnd that
the demand Is Increasing is shown dally In
the small supply of stock offerings. Stocks
were bid up freely to enable holders to mar
ket the other stocks without causing n sharp
decline In them. A largo number of bulls
who have closed out arc not adverse to u de
cline , ns they would like to got In again.
The market to-day was dull nnd about as
uninteresting as ever witnessed. The bad
crop reports from the west made operators
backward about purchasing nnd traders who
were lucky enough to have orders found it
ilitllcult to execute thorn satisfactorily. The
only feature was the ndvnneo ofV In Mich
igan Central and Northwestern , the rest of
tlto list remaining steady. Sales were 31.S23
shares : money \ ( < il1 ' . The bank statement
showed a slight decrease in the reserve , but
cut no figure.

WEEKLY BUSINESS REVIEW ,

A BETTER SPECULATIVE DEMAND.
Now York KtclintiKo In Good Supply
ami ICnnler-StoekH Quite Aotlvo
Unusual Kxcltuinoiit In Grain
niul Provisions ,
Tlio Money Market.
Cmcuio , August 4. [ Special Telegram to
Tin : IlcK.l Business around the banks was
moderately active during the past week. The
settling up of monthly accounts nnd the de
livery of property on maturing contracts cre
ates a llttlo more demand for money tempo
rarily , but borrowers experienced no dlfll-
culty In obtaining all the accommodations re
quired. Bankers , lisa rule , are well supplied
with loan-ibid funds and are disposed to
readily favor customers , but generally In
sist on excellent security and comparatively
wide margins , 'llio supplies of grain and pro
visions on hand uro smaller than usual at this
season of the year , consequently less money
is required to carry them. Bunkers have no-
copied some outsldo paper at fair rates of
interest but are not Inclined to grant many
favors of that character nt present. The
balances of country banks uro well main
tained , but local bankers nnticipato a liberal
reduction in thorn when now crops begin to
move freely. Not much money has been
forwarded to tlio interior , us the require
ments In that quarter have been light.
Farmers are moving very llttlo produce to
llio stations as they are now busily engaged
in harvesting operations. The demand fiom
opcratois in stocks , grain and provisions
tthowcd a little improvement , as tlio call for
margins were more frequent and porno
money was required to pay for property pre
viously purchased. Shippers of grain and
provisions borrowed sparingly. Packers are
out of the market , possibly on the loaning
side as their business does not employ their
ready funds. Lumber dealers asked for few
favors nnd manufacturers presented some
short dnto papers , Merchants in the wholesale
sale- mercantile trade wore moderate borrow
ers , but their demands are not pressing.
Hates of interest were without material
change , ranping at 5 ( 5 percent on call and
5 , ' < @ * per cent on tlmo loans. In eastern
markets thedomand lor money is gradually
improving , and offerings were moderately
free , with rates of interest firmer
nt ( tV % per cent on call nndl j@H per cent
on time loans. Foreign financial centers
show n llttlo steadiness , with n moderate de
mand for money from all sources. The bal
ances of the Bank of England show n further
reduction , nnd continental banks also npponr
to bo reducing their supply of loanable funds.
New York cxL'lin-ige was in good supply
throughout the week and the demand was
only fair. Prices ruled easier , nml sales
were made at par to 50 cents discount per
$1,000 , closing steady nt2."u3llcents discount.
Foreign exchange was In belter supply ,
owing to Increased exports of flour , grain nt'd
petroleum , and the market ruled weak and
prices lower. Tlio demand was only fair.
Shippers' sixty days documentary bills on
London changed hands nt $ l.8f4.S4 : ! ( , and
the market closed quiet at ? > 4.83Kii4.St ( : ; < f.
The Now York stock market exhibited con
siderable activity during the past week , and
the feeling in a general way was stronger.
Prices averaged higher on loading proper
ties , though the extreme ligures reached
vero not fully supported to the closo. Wall
street operators traded rather freely , and
foreign speculators gave tlio market eonsid
crublo attention during the early part of the
week. Western operators traded with con
siderable freedom in some of the slocks ,
ohiolly thoao in which the west is interested.
The earnings of the leading railroads have
shown only a small improvement , which maybe
bo attributable to the unsettled condition of
f i eight rates. The outlook for crops is re
garded as very favarablo , and this in a meas
ure tends to the firmness of the stocks of
some of the leading linos. There was some
realizing by the ' 'long" interest at advanced
prices , but not sufllclent to maku any material
change in the market nor have any effect on
the course of prices. The whole list of stocks
was quite generally traded in , but Reading ,
St. Paul , Now York & Now England , Dela
ware , Lacknwaunu & Western , Union Pu- .
cille , Missouri Pacific and Western Union
met with most favor. The market closed
rather steady. Tlio sales on the New York
stock exchange for the week aggrcgulcd 101-
823 shares.
An unusually active week has been passed
by speculators and a largo volume of busi
ness transacted , nil the lending grain nnd
provision markets sharing in the general Im
provement In business. The surroundings of
trade were sufficiently variable to encourage
speculative transactions and create some dif
ference of opinion relative to the future
course of the markets. Crop advices from
abroad were unfavorable and reports from
homo crops were not HO encouraging in a gen
eral way as during the past week or two.
This had some effect in strengthen
ing the markets early in the week ,
but free realizing by heavy opera
tors tended to depress the markets
nnd lower prices again. The receipts of now
grain continue moderate. Sellers evidently
nro slow to accept current prices and
regard the outlook as favorable
for holding. Shipments have been
more liberal both from souboard
and western markets and supplies nro not in
creasing as rapidly us reported at this time
lasl year. The demand on shipping account
was more uclivo , several round lots of wheat
and corn being taken on direct export orders ,
which is regarded as a very favorable feature
in trade. In fact there Is little doubt with
tlio present favorable freights continued ,
that Chicago will bo the headquarters for the
export trade in grain and provisions during
the fall nnd winter months. Fluctuations
in prices were frequent and within quite
n wide range at times , bul the result of
the week's business shows a material ad
vance established. The quality of now grain
has not been very good , but this is usually
the case ut the beginning of new crops.
Provisions shared in the general unsullied
fooling near the eloso of the week and n
very marked decline in prices occurred ,
though a slight rally prevailed later. The
receipts of liva hogs at all the principal west
ern packing points were lighter. The pack
ing of the west is gradually decreasing , and
re.tinns to duto show u falling off of about
l.Mi.OOO hogs , compared with the returns of
last season ,
