Uuropo wants coin and the demand for currency to handle the enormous crops of this country will neces sarily dram the cuatcrn banks of their sur- > lus and Icoep the roscrvo to u minimum , but no fours are oxprcsso.l of a panic or of n do- mind which can dot be roadlly met. Business Is excellent nnd jobbers have been comfortably busy mid speak of a steady ncrcasc in the volume of trado. Collections are fair to middling. The harvesting of the corn crop engrosses the attention of the "arming community , nnd traders must wait ; ill the product of the year's labor can bo loused before they can realize from Its sale. Jut there is n general feeling that remit- ancos will bo nntlsfactory and better than usual after the harvest is finished. Sugar Is weak at current quotations , say iW'iii'i'o ' for granulnted , with a declining narltet for raw sugar. Coffco is perhaps llrmur and prices for standard qualities are very steady , and ItIs the opinion of wo 103tod men that prices will remain In ntutu quo for Bouio weeks to come. Tin Is some- ivhnt depressed , but prices arc fairly steady. Lead 13 lower. Turpentine Is stronger ind the prlco u shade higher. There has becn.Bomc little iacrcasoof aellv- ty noted In the wool inaritut the past week , jut no material ndvntico In prices has been mule. Dairy products are very firm , nnd Duller , eggs nnd cheese are all higher , with a very actlvo demand. . Poultry Is scarce lo cally and In good demand. The retail trade is looking up , and the leading houses report a very handsome increase Insales over last week , with cxuullunt prospects for thu fall sensed. The wheat-growers of the Mississippi valley will holu u convention hero on the iSId lust. The chief work of the meeting will bo tlie formation of a wheat-growers' association and the devising of aurli means as will in sure the farmers of the valley a better con trol of prices. The gathering of tliacorn crop has just commenced. Owing-to tno very low pnco prevailing it is expected it will bo cribbed and held wherever It is practicable. Steel manufacturers foavo followcil last week's advance in prices with a still f urthnr rise of ? l per ton on nearly all productions. From information received from Halli- inoro the peach deal has been completed , and the effort to raise the market to n prollt- ablu and stable point will bo attempted. These who compose tnc association , it is said , have appointed a committee ot live of their number , who will endeavor to care for the stock on the outside that has been a weight on the market nnd held it down to its present unprofitable poaltion. and also to act as a board of management. A Hnltimoro cor respondent writes : "Tho packers have fully and finally agreed to'pool' their peaches under a heavy penalty for violation of their agree ment. The substance of the agreement is that each packer is to sell his own goods just the same as heretofore , but is to bo governed by the prices llxcd from tlmo to time by the 'pool' on the different grades. Statistics are being prepared , showing the stocks on hand to-day , which , by comparison , are claimed to bo lighter than utany time m llftcen years past. Prices will undoubtedly bo advanced on all prudes. " The director of the mint has prepared a statement of the gola mid silver coin in the United States at the present time. It shows in round numbers $ iil7UOO,000 in gold coin , SI10I)00UM ) ( ) in silver dollars , and $70,000,000 in subsidiary silver coin , besides $111,000,000 of gold bullion held in the coffers of the treasury as security for its equivalent in paper certificates. Sales of steel rails last week are said to have reached JIS.OOO tons , of which nearly one-half wcro taken by Pennsylvania mills ut S2'J.OO@30.0U.Vcstern makers arc selling at $32.00 and asking J3.0 : !

Crtulo iron is very strong in all markets east , west and south , and there Ib little diminution in busi ness. Prime is quoted as authority for the state ment that tlioro is moro hog cholera In this country at the present tlmo than a year airo ; that hogs were marketed qulto close during August and September , and that receipts at packing points are llkoly to bo disappointing until December. In that month ho predicts increased receipts , as the spring pigs will then bo ready to bo shipped , Only once in twenty-five years have oats sola lower in Chicago than reported yester day at ISo in October , 1S7S.

The latest semi-oflldnl opinion on the foreign wheat crop Is from State Depart ment Agent Smith at Slayonce. Ho figures the European crop at lMOiri,000 ! ) bushels In 1838 , and this year at 1.05lil4,500 : bushels , a decrease uf 180,055.500 bushels or 15 per cent , OMAHA IilVK Sl'OOK. Cat tin Saturday , Oct. 12. There was about an average run of cattle hero to-day , but there were not many good ones. The market wrs tirm on good beef cattle and the da- mand being active , salesmen found no dlfll- uulty In unloading their holdings. A bunch of good natives brought $1.30 , and some oth ers nold'iit 54.101,20. . Although the woe- tonm wore as a rule not very extra there were a few goon enough to bring $3.00.

The drift of news from tno northwest was bearish ia the extreme. Receipts arc on the increase In spite of re ported statements that they could not get any bigger because the facilities were al ready overtaxed. A number of commission and shipping houses on 'change report n re newal of foreign buying orders for both wtioat and corn. No actual buslna ss resulted , but points wcro dropped by bull leaders that a large amount of wheat would have been worked , to-day , but for the advance In ocean freights , which advance served as n bar to business. Ocenn room is scarce aiM Montreal reports that no room at all is obtainable from that port. Clearances for the week from all Atlantic ports in wheat and'flour reached the respect- abio total of 1,250,000 bushels , Baltimore contributing the largest share of the busi ness. ; Corn was inactive and easier.

The provision trade closed the week in a quiet manner. Tno October pork Ueal was scarcely mentioned , and in the general market there was no particular lifo at any timo. Trading was slow and featureless , and with the promise of the arrival of 125- 000 heirs this coming week , the fenlmgva more bearish than otherwise. Hulchinson was again ttio largest individual buyer of .lutiunrv pork. His purchases , in fact , were the only interesting movements ia the day's business. "October pork was held nt SIO.KO.

[ Special to TJIK BEK. ] Tlioro is a straiiL'o fiirfci- imtion to tlio very niuno"Piko'sl'calc. " Tlioro is BO much wuird liistory , so many fabled iidventures clustering about the old peak that from boyhood up thcro Is an cagoi' desire to BOO it. Everybody who pees to Colorado vigils the peak if ho lias tiino and health to do BO. It is strange how strong an at tachment is felt for the old peak , and hou quickly Bucli an nttauhmont is formed. Everybody within sight of it locate all tlio other points of the com pass und all llio other mountains by it , and when tlioro is a lull in conversa tion the eyes turn to the pualc to see whether it is stormy oi1 sunshiny there. The result of the observation furnishes the lugging tongue with a fresh remark on the weather. In a few days one bo- comus quite well acquainted with tlio big mountain. In a few weeks in ripens into friendship , and a few months spent within tlio sight of it results in real af fection. One soon gets in the habit of observ ing almost hourly whether the peak has ltd head hidden by clouds or bathed in Hunnliine. Every storm which strikes it is noted , and yet this wcathory ob servation is really of no practical ac count , If one is going for a drive the sight of a dark storm on tlio peak in no ways deters him. It may rain or enow , it may thunder anil litjhtnintr , blow or hail most fiercely , the head of the grand old mountain may be lost In the black est clouds , nnd yet the horses are harnessed , and the pleasure-seekers in the valley and plains below roll out along the dusty roads just the same , They huvo learned that the storms which uro so plainly Been are no moro apt to reach thorn than it tlioro a thou- und mile away. 'i'ho government has abandoned Pike's peak as a signal station. It ia found that the observations tnkon there are of no gpocial worth , The expense of maintaining lines ( o the clovntod station is in no ways juslifloil by the valtio of the observations thus taken. There arc two men still kept there by the gnvoriunnnl , but their duties are chiefly to keep tourists from carrying oft the boulders , to servo the thirsty , tired citl20H9who reach the stafion with black collco , condensed milk and lump sugar. The colTeo nt 25 cents n cup is high in adoublo sense , but few com plain at the price. The relish of the drink uflor so weary n climb causes one to fool even friendly to suoh n. trust on coffee. TJncla Sanvs employes also take in n few dollars for photographs. Tour ists have n fondness for having their pictures taken , representing themselves in all sorts of startling positions on tlio top of giddy heights , in order to show to their friends at home. Tlio sergeant in charge of the station has strange experiences , but ho seems to get used to them.Vliilo a. blinding snowstdrtn is covering tlio peak , he looks down upon Colorado City , and by the r.ld ot his glass scow the fat man on the porch , in lits shirt sleeves , mopping his bald head , and laboring with a palmleaf to keep cool. Turning his glass n little to tlio north ho sees a thunderstorm half way down the side " of tlio mountain , while" little further away the sun is scon shining , and away beyond , on the other side , a r.yelonu is playing havoc with the trues. Ho can huvo his pick of weather at tiny timo. "What lo you think , doctor , about my colnir up tfic ponkV "My mlvlco would bo tlio same as that given by Punch to a voting man about to get married : 'Don't. ' You unn toll folks that you have been tip. They won't know the dilToronco , and that is really what folks go up for. " "Uiit that would be lying. " "Well , you'd bettor bo a living liar than a dead peaUist. Ymi'vo got heart disease and it might kill yon to elinib up there. " Most of the strange sensations de scribed by those who climb the peak are uuo * to imagination. The high altitude lins some cited on the breathing , but there are many oxnggoratcd words of warning. The stories of tints , anoso bleeding , sudden deaths , etc. , frighten the novice until ho is ready to give up tlio climb or else bay his prayers nil the way up , with little hope of seeing friends or kin again. The trip is u hard one and tires a strong person. Head aches , shortness of breath and other symptoms might naturally bo manifest were a. like arduous trip taken without reaching such an altitude. Everything here though , is charged up to the alti tude except the coffee , which is spot cash. Tlie old ways ot Rolling to the ton of Pike's Peak are fast disappearing. The bronchos and burros are now being used nininlv for the novelty , and not sis being the most practical. A company has built n line wagon road clear to tlio top of the peak , and the mountain wagons now take passengers un the entire dis tance with no more fatigue than is foil in traveling seven teen miles on any other good mountain road. As n result the company is making a pile of money , and the owners of saddle horses are letting them out at one-fourth the former prices , and are not getting to pay for feed. The wagon road from Cascade cost about & 10.00U. This season will see the road paid for out of the earnings so &av those who know. It is a toll road , and the company runs its own line ot stages , others not being able to compete very well. The predic tion is made that another year will sue a railway built to the top. The line in already 'partly laid out. With the building of a railroad the old stage drivers will disappear. They arc refreshing relics now to be found on the road to the peak. They have co'me in from the old mountain drives : being driven nway by the incoming of the iron horse. "Pretty Dick is the favor ite of the line. He is an old driver. having spent twenty-three years upon the box. As he says , ho can drive any thing and ovorythinir but u , single horse. "Pretty Uielc" is at his best when lie has a" jovial loud , with two or three ladies to dovolope his gallantry- lie is a natural gentleman and humor ist. Ho prides himself on being a little above the ordinary stager , liick de lights in telling the most marvelous stories of thu mountains , and pointing out the scones of the most blood curdling accidents and tragedies. JIo has u legend for every place and a name lor every rock. He's a great in ventor , but so good humorcdly does ho ply hia trade that ho is a charming fol low to have on the box. "Yonder is the Devil's Slide. They do suy that when the devils come onto ' tlio p'onk they always slide down there. We'll drive over to the edge , and you can look over it , und if any ot you want to slide down you can do so. " The passengers toolc no offense nt tlio sly insinuation , and Pretty Dick had Ins quiet cliuddu. "Now , honest , Dick , do they ever find any diamonds on tlio peak ? " "Oil , yes , some ot the rii'ottiest diamonds mends I over saw. " The t-.vo ladies , so ingeniously made the subject of Dick's compliment , did not appreciate the intent ot his remark for un instant , but the modest look quickly followed the puzzled look , and , despite their protests , they liked it. "loot's build a monument to Mrs. Hayes. " It was an Iowa school imi'iuu wiio spoke , and she picked out a big boulder us a BtnrloiHotrowing n marking pot as the signal station she rudely painted tlio name upon the side of tlie big rock. She uhicod upon it us largo a stone as she could lift. Tlioro wore a do/.on moro tourists on top of tlio punk nt the time , and ouch milled n stone. Thai \yiis but u fovr weeks ago , and now the pile lias grown BO that it in noticeable even in the mld t of the rocks which nature has HO confusedly tumbled together. There are u dox.en different monuments which have than been started on the top of thu penk.but that to Mrs. Hayes lias grown most rap idly.Tho The top of the peak is a frightful place during an electric storm. The lightning sends its bolts in all direc tions , but the peak itself is seldom struck. There are iron posU bet among tlie rocks near the signal house , and at times when an electric storm Mtrikc.s the mountain at night , those iron posit will gleam like elec tric lights. They mnko n wonderfully brilliant and even startling appearance , and iv btrangor , caught by u storm on the mountain und Hooking shelter nt tlio signal station , will never forgot hit fright. l > y MlnctriHl v. And now they have invented a device for llshing by electricity ; says the Hos- ton Courier. A tiny motor worked by a pocket battery has been invented U run tlio reel in sulmon fishing , and tci play the nsli until it is tired out. It seems hardly fair for tlie fish , but it will save the strength of tlie angler and very likely in time the machine will bo perfected 'so that the fisherman can re main quietly at home reading Isuut Walton while the elecirio contrivance does ttio whole thing. Indeed , it is dif ficult to sea why it may not bo sent bj express to the far-away salmon streams while tlio angler remains inexpensively and restful in town. Truly , this ia u wonderful ago. A Moscow foundry fuses ir.olulu bj electricity. Tlio glare is greater than the sun , and employes work two houn per day. WILL SELL ON "OPEN BOARD , " Ronl Estate Moo Hnvo tv Big Sohomo in Projoot.

It wont be the fault of the real agents if tlio Omaha realty market ia no ! unusually active this fall. They have pone to work in caraoat on a tcheiuo that , promises well nnd which at least possesses the feature of novelty. The Ouialia Honl KsUto Exchange , : vfhloh was organized last year , Is to bo iflven onlarped nowors , one of wlucli will bo the creation of an open board , similar to a stock exchange , where dally meetings will bo Hold and real estate transactions conducted , The primary plan of the organization principally for the purpose of Riving mutual aid In the matter of nultlntr sales of listed [ iroperty. Unrtur the rules of the exchange , when a piece of property is listed wlthonu member of the exchange , ho la turu lists it with every other mciubarof tlio exchange , thereby greatly enhancing tlio chancoa of a salo. 1'ho leading mcmbnrs of the exchange held a meeting on Thursday and another on yesterday at which the proposed enlarge ment of the powers of the bpily were fully discussed and will bo finally acted tipon nt a meeting to bo hold on Tuesday morning , 'I'lio cxclniDKO propose ! ) to' secure the board of trade rooms , or seine other equally suit able place of nicotine , for ono hour each day , nt which tlmo any property owner may piaco Ills possessions up for aalo. This will RVO ! purchasers an opportunity of having a largo list of property placed before them in a proncr manner and Is expected to revo- Iuttonl70 the real estate business In Omaha , It Is also proposed by some of the prime movers in this prooet ) to have securities , stnclt In local corporations and other pat > bra offered for aalo nt these daily nicotines. Tlio best men unions the roul estate dealers oC the city are on the committee that is engaged in formulating a plan of notion to bo pre sented for tlio consideration of the oxohaago at the meeting on Tuesday. Tlio "exclusive agency" question is n toplo of never falling discussion und interest among- real estate dealers. It has been the custom In Oiniihn for the avoragn property owner who wishes to sell to place his' prop erty in the hands of several ugoiits with the Idea that ho Is reaching a larger number of prospective purchasers. Yet the very men with whom the property Is listed , if they would ho frank about It , would tell the owner that hU itlcn is erroneous. Iteal estate men , better than anybody else , understand Unit nothing depreciates the value ot properly so much as havlag a host of iircnts hawking it around for sale. An anxious seller rarely Units a ready purchaser , while the man who has an lit en of buying always buys If ho llmls out the ownur Is not particular about selling. The reorganised Ueal Eslato ox > fchange favors the exclusive agency idea In its best. form. Members of the exchange all place the same value on the prnpertv for sale and have their dealings with the agent with whom the property was originally listed. The maintaining of u uniform price on a lot U a great feature in effecting a salo. If the property is in the hai-.ds of rival agents they shave commissions , In their anxiety to soil , until the prospective purchases gets an idea that eacb has been trying to swmdlu him and in the cud the sale ' 'goes by the board or the anxious owner is forced to drop his price down a few thousand dollars to sumo enterprising broker , who aiiops this muthod of satisfying the buyer , in his opinion , that the other fellows have been trying to gouge him. > "Unmet On the liixtallmniit I'lnii. " An article printed in Tin : Unn last Sunday pointing out some wealc features In the in stallment plan of building and selling houses caused considerable feeling among the moneyed men who have been malting Investments in this Iclnu of work. The discussion of the matter him brought a new feature of scheme to light. A prominent real uslatomun who has given the matter considerable attention said : "Tho real fault lies with the representa tives of eastern capital who are malting loans on their property. They go out of the ooiids of reason and give speculators loans of more than the property and improvements are worth. This enables the investor ; if ho de frauds the purchaser a little in the price of the hiiilding , to put the whole business up without really investing a cent , and pocket a nice margin besides. The representative of tins capital is banking on Omaha's future anil the advance In property , und ho generally comes out all right. Hut if tlicro should come a period of depression in trade so severe as to cat the wages of the men who are build ing these installment houses , it will bo remarkable - markablo if these cmntulistR do not close their interest and In the end find them selves loaded with seuurltios which they can not sell except nt a loss. In such event the builder of the house loses nothing , having nothing Invented but. his nerve , but the east ern canltallsts will bo given a chill that will stop many thousands or dollar.- ) that U now seeking Investment in this city , " Tno AVmik'H Gossip about big deals was plentiful about the real ostnto ofllcos the past week , and a number of surprises are booked for early Inosculation.
