The money market Is denominated by
bankers as tn very satisfactory condition ,
BtiUR end trim , with a good demand tor
funds find plenty of funds to moot tbo do-
mani'l. The clearings show n small Increase
over last year's footings ut this dato. Mr.
Hughes makes tlio footings 1,680,307,10 , an
Increase of 4 per cent.
Wo were permitted to-day to Inspect the
tcllcr'fl blotter o t tbo Omaha National bank
In October , 1S03 , nnd on October 20 of that
year tbo clearings of tbo national banks of
Omnba were as follows :
Omnlm National bnnlc , credit. . . $30.25
First Nat iouul bank , credit S'J,40
"
Balnncc. . . . $10 85
But wo hnvo prown slnco then , General
trndo Is exceptionally Rood and increasing
dally , and Indications nro that Omaha will do
tbo largest trade In its bistory during the
year of 18SU.
Collections nro satisfactory nnd much bet
ter than a year slnco. Prices nro fairly
steady , though sugars nro somewhat weaker
under advices that tbo Louisiana crop Is very
heavy una tbo belief that the trust has a largo
surplus stored.
Coffees advanced } { a par pound for choice
Rio the past week notwithstanding the fact
that Arbucklo has been , and is n persistent
bear.
The butter market is somewhat demoral
ized and it Is feared that operators in this
specialty luivo lust heavily on the season's
business. Packing butter 1ms not been
quoted so low for years us to-day and a good
article of this grudo Is quoted at 5@7o per
pound , which is but llttlo abuvo the price of
tallow nnd grcasn.
According to the Now York Commercial
Bulletin the 11 ro loss ( n tbo United States
mid Canada for Aupust nmmountcd to $11-
153,851) ) . The losses for tliu last ojisht mouths
foot up * 5l5-lGO,350 , ngai-ist $83,023,320 , for
the corresponding period last year.
At thirty-seven cities the bank clearings
for the month of August amounted to M.UT- ; )
C7l,5ll ) , or ll.a per cent larger than the re
turns in 1888. For the eight months already
elapsed of the present year the clearings
have aggregated a total of ? 35,0n,003,51o.

llgurci rcllcct an enormous volume of general -
oral business ,
Tbo claim Is mndo that upward of
$000,000.000 of capital Is nt the present tlmo
invested in the electrical industry in the
United States. Of this vast sum $ ' 200,000,000
is credited tn the telegraph and telephone
companies , $1011,000,000 to the sixty clcctrio
railways In the country , the electric light
companies , and the numerous factories , and
? 100,000OJO to the manufactories of electrical
bupplies , wire , cable and electrical appliances
generally.
The Unseed oil trust , which is composed of
forty-ciiht companies with a capital stock of
$13,781,000 , has declared four quarterly divl-
donds sfnco November 1 , 18S8.
Many American cntton factories are said
to" bo turning out , coarse or medium goods at
as low ucost as the mills of Great Britain.
The shipment of California rntslns from
tbo coast has beguu , though It will bo sev
eral weeks bofor tbo movement of the crop
will become general. There will be consid
erable competition this season in the artistic
methods of packing. Some packers havogono
to a heavy expense in the preparing of fancy
papers , with elaborate designs.
A Ulo cable says : "On account of the quan
tity of shriveled beans the coiTco crop loses
in weight and wo reduce our estimates. Wo
estimate , the present crop at ubout 1,750,000
bags , including late coffee. Crop accounts
continue bad , and wo are apprehensive re
garding next season's yield. Frost has ap-
oared in some places in the Santos district ,
ut no diixugo was done , and the flowering
there is favorable. "
Mackerel nro still scarce , nnd though two
fishing months remain , it is safe to predict
that the catch of 1889 will be the smallest
over Known. Prices remain very high.
Sugar is weak. The southern sugar croj :
promises to bo the largest In the lumtory ol
this country , and bids fair in consequence tc
materially reduce , If not wipe out , the croilu
of the trust.
From eotno California sources there ap
pears rather more urgency to sell now-erof
raisins. Good brands London layer can b <
contracted for at $1.85 frco on board or $2.20
laid down.
The pack of salmon In British Columbia
waters is unprecedented this season. Esti
mates nra made of a total of 425,000 cases
Sixteen canneries thera are credited will
putting up 270,000 cases.

Cutlln
Saturday , Sept. 14.
There was no end to the cattle hero to-day
the receipts Doing the heaviest since the lira
of the week , but the trade was extreme ! ,
Blow. Tbo distillery cattle which wer
mentioned as being sold yesterday wore re
colvod nnd weighed up to-day. There wor
mora good corn fed cattle hero than for several
oral days , and theuo was at least ono vor ,
prime bunch. The packers were not in nee
of many cattle , or rather they had on bun
about all they could use , nnd no ono triad t
buy. The foaling on tbo market was abon
steady , although tbo buyers claimed that !
they bought , any they would have to bu
thorn lower , A few natives sold at $ U.45 (
U.75 nnd souio western steers at $3.75. A
though thera were so many cattle bore , thot
was no went number of feeders on sale , an
as usunl on Saturday , the trade in that clas
of cuttlu was blow.
The hog mnritot showed BOIIIQ linprovomer
to-day and heavy bogs Which sold largely i
13,70 yesterday , with a few loads at $ a.7l
Bold quite Inrifoly at $3.80 to-day , with soni
nt3tj5. It would certainly bo a conscrvi
live estimate to place the advance at 5@0i !
Tbo nutrUot on light hogs was Do higher , an
was paid for light sorts. Tbo ai

CHICAGO , Sopt. 14. f Special Telegram
to Tim BEE. ! The bull snap of Wednesday
nnd Thursday , which was consi'aferably re
lated yesterday , was almost Invisible to
day. The market was narrow , outside busi
ness -was conspicuous by its absence , and tha
local scalpers were playing the unprofitable
gnmo of "dog-uat-dbp. " The cables wcro
barely steady nnd orders for foreign ac
counts were principally to soil. In the
northwest , however , n different sUvtfl of nf- '
falrs wns visible , for , with receipts'of
103,101 bushels at Dulnth todayitho
demand from shippers advanced that market
Ic par bushel nt the most active time of the
day. Minneapolis received' about 200,0.001
bushels , but a good demand for flour was ad
vised from tlioro on both foreign , and ilomea-
tlencc9iint. The very smitll proportion of
the contract grade visible In the current re
ceipts was conspicuous today , as out of 313
car loads of winter wheat received only two
graded No. 2 , und out of 1,255 cars for the
weok. only 01 Were of the contract Quality.1
The price for December was' confined
to n range of 5 c , the lowest point
having boon 7o nnd the high
est 70Xc. The opening was fairly
firm , und under good buying u.v several leadIng -
Ing local speculators the high point wns
reached early In the season , but , lacking
further support. It gradually sagged towards
the lower point , whlctt it reached about 1230
p. m. . but recovered slightly , closing nt
TWOTSJjtC , or J c Improvement over yester
day's ' resting llgurts.
The receipts of corn were 12 cars moro
than estimated yesterday. The wealhnr
throughout the corn bolt was forcing the
maturity of the crop and the opinion was
general that this year's ' crop is nil but past
the danger line of frost. Export clearances
were quite light nnd the foreign market
easy. Orders from the country were mostly
"bi. the buying side , but there wns very llttlo
or such business done , local speculators being
the principal operators to-day. The closing
prices wcro as follows : September , 32 c ;
Octobor. 32'jfc , and Moy 34J c. These prices
were K@J o lower than nt the correspond
ing tlmo yesterday.
Receipts of oats again overran the estimate
by 40 cars , nnd this fact , with the continued
heaviness in corn , caused an easy market. A
fair business was done In December and
May ut about 3o difference , and there wns
initial trading In the January delivery at
20J c. May was In fair demand all day at
1 3 > e , whllo no nr months were dull. With-
Irnwals for shipment were smaller than the
recent average , nnd cish trading was
chiefly by sample , with No.:3 to go to store
lolling sparingly at lOJfc :
The provision trade closed tlio week in n
luiol manner. In no department was thora
ivon a moderate movcmehf to-day , nnd there
vas development to occasion scarcely n
mssinc market , A slow condition of affairs
existed and price changes were limited and
vitfcout fnaturo. Compared with . .yester
day's final quotationsitho'crosings wcro un
changed for lard and October short ribs ,
> c higher for September short ribs and Octo-
icr pork , and 2Ko higher for January pork ,
anuary short ribs declined - Jc. *

CiiroAao , III. * Sept. 14. [ Special Tologrnm
ti THEUBP..I The chief feature In the finan
cial situation , nnd tbo ono which created
some surprise , because It was unlooked for ,
wai the uneasy condition of tlio money mar
ket. Uankors state that although there Is
an increasing demand for the surplus ol
funds bytho grain trndo at other points , the
enlarged use in that channel has boon offset
by decreased calls for discounts from other
sources. Maturing paper has also 'been
promptly mot since the requests for renewals
woro. smaller than during the summer
months. The result. Is an easier tendency ol
tbo fonn market , nt n tlmo when llrmnoss
was anticipated. Money is obtainable on
calf loans , backed 'oy fancy collaterals , nl
* K5 l(3f ( vent , 8(85' ( for cent on tlmo nnd
C@3 per cent for mercantile paper. There Is
mnro money going to grain districts. Calls
for funds from other grain concentrating
points is Increasing , and Duluth and Minne
apolis are also arranging for funds with
which to Day for wheat that Is expected to
arrive in largo quantities during the coming
sixty days. Tba heavy distribution of mono.v
by the government for bonds has Inrgolj
contributed to the relief of the eastern
money market , nnd the recent fenra of a
stringency" there have disappeared ,
New York exchange was in good
supply and dull nt 2o@GO cents
discount per ? 1,000 , and closed nt 40. For
elgn exchange , although in good supply , was
stronger , and documentary sterling bills on
London ranged nt § J.82 ; > { and closed steady.
The jobbing trndo In dry goods , clothing ,
groceries , hardware anil miscellaneous mer
chandise continues active and collections arc
good.
Trading on tbo New York stock exchange
was'actlvo andtho market showed r. derided
tendency to broaden , but , as usual , a good
percentage of the business was in special
lines. An unsettled feeling prevailed and
the undertone most of the week was bullish ,
the general disposition being to buy on
every break. London was llrmer nnd higher
and llooral orders were from that quarter to
buy Heading and Erlo. Tennessee coal ,
Missouri Pacific , Louisville & Nasbvillo and
the Grangers were strong favorites of the
bull party. Chicago operators bought the
last named early in the week nnd prices on
the entire list moved upward. There was
little nowsTccoivud which had any material
olTect on values except disquieting rumors
from the western roads ratu situation. The
refusal of the cast-ubund lines to prorate , it
was thouuht , would induce the Chicago ,
Burlington & Northern to reduce its through
ratn to enable it , to get sulllciont busi
ness to nay expenses. Tlio last three
days' trading Wiia marked by n
general disnosttion on the part oi
holder ! to realize proiits , and the soiling re
sulted in carrying prices down. Trusts re
ceived moderaloiiuo'htion. Sugar lud them ,
but no features were developed. While the
closing sales on a majority ol
the octlvo properties recorded a
slicht advance , a number showed mod
erate losses in comparison with the close ol
the previous week. The bond market was
fairly active , Heading especially being act
ive , and prices averaged bolter. The aggre
gate sales for \vcekwcro 1,308,320 , shares ,
Considerable Interest was manifested in the
. gVahrmarkots during the week just closed.
Hather more steadiness prevailed as a rule ,
nnd prices have favored sellers to some ox-
tent. The shipping demand for all cereals
was quite brisk , and , as freights have re
ceded slightly , shippers were encouraged tc
maintain the nctivo movement of the past
two weeks. The Seutomber report of thi
department of agriculture reduced the con
ilitlon of crops generally and indicated
lighter yields than heretofore anticipated
This was regarded as a strengthening fea
ture. Advices from abroad indicated IK
particular chaneet in that quarter and report !
regarding crops uro somewhat conflicting
Hpcmpts of grain nt interior stations huvi
hein fair , rather increasing. Arrivals o
grain at lake ports hnvo been quite free , bu
there has been very llttlo accumulation
The visible supply was somewhat disappoint-
mir , showing radical changes for this sensor
of the year. Speculative trading \vm
rather more active during tlio week
wheat recovering to some extent , fron
the dullness of the week previous , while con
nnd oats mot with considerable favor , rathe
more money going to thn interior , whicl
would Indicate that the movement of farn
products will bo maintained. Farmers , however
over , are busy in some sections with thei
fall plowing , and this may check the movement
mont of small grain slightly. Hecoivers hav
experienced no rtilllculty in disposing of the !
consignments , nnd prices are generally satis
factory.
Provisions met with considerable speculative
tivo favor and trading was quite brisk , par
ticulurly in ineas pork and short _ rib sidco
Prices ruled with considerable irregularity
with trading somewhat unsatisfactory. Th
shipping trade was moderate.
Seeds exhibited considerable activity , tlm
othy ruling weak and flux higher.
Receipts of live stock were liberal , will
llttlo change to note In prices. Packing o
the west for the week shows n further on
lurgcment nnd the asgrogato is fully cqun
to that of the total of the past season ,

ono illustration that will recall to old
natrons of all sorts of ill versions a cur
ious feature of bypono clnvs when ninny
things wont Unit wouldn't fjo now , siiys
the Philadelphia Press. It is a fairly
spirited sketch of the famous lighting
hog Pntsoy , or somosuuh iiiuno. There
was not tnucli fnt on Pfttsoy , but ho had
quick logs nnd ugly teotli , and his
ownorfl would light him against any clog
in the country at 8100. No dog ever
got Patsoy by the oar and hold on any
great length of time , and the pig had
a long record of dogs killed in tlio ring ;
all kinds of canines they were , too ,
Patsoy. BC far as the sporting innkeeper
at Jonitintown can toll , is tlio only hog
with thia kind of talent that ever lived.
