THE OMAHA DAILY BEE , SUNDAY , Afc KIL 20 , 1801.-TWENTY PAGES. 11 THE CONDITION OF TRADE , Bomo Say it is Booming and All Affirm That it is Very Good , MONEY QUITE EASY IN MOST SECTIONS Tlio l'roHipoiH | for Abundant Crops In \ \ ere .Never Hotter at TlilH KriiNon of ' the Year. - About the only remaining vcstlgo of Iho iccont money stringency Is to bo found In sections of tlio country whnro the crops were n falluio last season nnd Itcannot booxpcctcd that money will bo plenty In these localities until n now crop Is harve-stcd. In other parts of the country tributary to Omaha and in Iho city itself the money market has practically returned to Its normal condition. No more complaints nio hoard from business men about the dlfllculty of obtaining , money necessary to carry on busi ness cntci prises nnd It can now bo truthfully said that any amount of money needed can bo obtained on good coll.itcial. With the money market In this condition collections nro vor.v fair and In some lines of business very Rood. As noted a week npo some old nccounts contractud during the dull period at the close of the jcar are still hang ing on , but It Is only n question of u llttlu time when they will bo worked out. Labor ing moil of nil classes nio now getting to work , building opouitions and other Impiovcmrmts being under way and this \vill tend to place in circulation largo sums of money that have been huaided for n good many months. WHOI l su.i : THAliri. It would bo a tllftlcult matter to describe the trade which the joboors of Omaha aio now enjojlng In too glowIng - Ing terms. It Is putting It In n veiy mild form to say that It Is better than the most sanguine of the Jobbois anticipated. Koine-of them speak of tiado as booming which means A gicat deal \vestcincars , others spenlt of it as veiv good whllo the most consei vatlvu say that U Is fully as good ns they could ask for or expect Some lirms ronnrt a nosltlvo liimoaso In the volninu ot trade of liO to S3 per cent for the month as compared wito Uio sumo period last year. As a matter of course thcro are certain conditions piovalcnt which may bo said to bo peculiar to this sea ton or , perhaps tnoio correctly speaking , conditions that are moro pronounced this season than during former years. It Is noted that n great many small cash orders aio coming in. Tills is ex plained partly by the number of old accounts h.iuging over some of thu retail trade , as noted above , and partly by n uosiio on the p.ut of 10 tailors to bo on the safe stdo and not load themselves up with moro goods than necessary. This hand to month business Is qulto uoticn.iblo this season In all sections of tlio surrounding teiritory but moio especially In localities where crops were a failure lust year and \\hcio money Is still rather close' . Several retail merchants who were in the city last week from dilToicnt points In west- cm Ion a complained that where tlio crops \\cio the heaviest and the fanners had done the best the mci chants were not getting as much bcnullt as might bo expected. Their explanation \\iis that the faimcrs who had iccelvcd much laigcr returns for tlioir last ye.us crops had In many cases used the money to pay off moitgngcs on their farms and had "stood oft" the mcichanU > . "It is like this , " Said one of the gentlemen , "a farmer when ho put in his . c t OPS last j ear anticipated clearing say $ . ' 00 , ' ' " ' vlile'h would bo ample to clear up his llttlo store accounts and other small debts , but the crops were so abundant and prices so high that instead of receiving $ iJO ( ho wns surprised to llnil himself m pos session of $1,000. If ho happened to have a mortgage of about that amount on his farm ho would use the money to pay that off and let the small accounts run. This , " con tinued the speaker , "may be a good policy for the farmer but it is a little lough on us merchants , " This , to say the least , U n very unique explanation for trauo , or rather collections , not moctlnc expecta tions , but there may bo a good deal ot truth In It. It.The The Jobbois all report their customers as \crysangulnoof the coming summer and fall trade , and It is safe to say that the feel ing among both jobbers and rotallois was never better. The reason for this cheerful state of affairs is to bo found in the magnillccnt crop prospects of the west and still further by the piospoct that these crops will com mand high prices when harvested. riiouucri ANII riiuirs. The nrilval of warm weather always hilnps about certain changes In the pro- ilueo markets of the country which are closely watched by these InterostoJ In the buslnobs , The past week hus witnessed borne ot these changes nna others are likely to take * Itne-o } at an oarlv date. In the first place the demand for dressed poultry has ceased al most en tlicly nnd dealers now advise ship ments of llvo poultry only. The conditions governing the egg market have also changed somewhat. Last vi-ar Soiisiderublo money was made In the storage ot Cjttrs and that lb encouraging speculators to put In a good many this season. The demand for eggs from this source. Is keeping the market up nml eggs nro helng placed In stor.igo that eostl''o and nuove. Still a voiy largo proportion of the eggs sold during thu wcolc went at I''c. It would seem that any considerable Increase in the icccipts would cause n drop In prices. The condition of the butter market Is es pecially Interesting and should ho carefully watched by shippers. Hecolpts aio very light oud prices as high as during the coldest winter weather , the bctt grades of country butter selling readily at ! ! 0@ ' . ! o , and oc casionally extra good lots as high as ' .Me. At the same time grass Is starting In the conn- tiy and now butter ought to put in nu ap pearance very soon. When It does come it Is quite likely to bo plenty and prices must take n big and very sudden drop. No one wants to bother with game , the de mand Is so light and It Is not worth the while of the shipper to handle It now. There has not been enough doing in It the past week to make a market. The vegetable imukots are much better supplied than they weio \\eok or two ago , and a largo vailoty of California and south ern stock Is to bo had. The most of these now vegetables aio arriving in very good shape nnd local dealers are prepared to 1111 orders In n very satisfactory manner It is not neces sary to enumerate the different kinds of veg etables now otfoied on the market us about cvoiything is Included In the list oven to new potatoes. The fruit maikots are also well supplied with everything to bo had In a , y pait of the i-ountrv Strawberries nro coming down in nrico whllo oranges and lemons nio llrm. Apples have become very scarce and nio so high that the demand has boon cut down very largely , oiioiI'lioMTe'Tu. . When every business man In every line of business Is talking about the crop prospects andjwhon business for the coming i ear may he said to depend ontlicly upon the result of the crops in the vest , no review of trade con ditions would bo complete without the crop report accompaniment. "What shall the harvest be , " Is the question that Interests every business man In the country fully as much as IL interests the farmer himself. So far as can bo Judged from picsoiit Indi cations the farm crops of Nebraska for 1SU1 will bo nil that could bo d.-sired. Every thing is in the very best condition , the ground Is thoroughly saturated with moisture , and the weather could not bo moro poifect for germi nating thu grain placed lu the giound. There is n general impression among busi ness men that wo are to have both a larpo acreage and a largo \ told. As to the latter It is nil guess work , but as to the acreage It is possible to give something itoflntto. Oats \ \ ill show n slight increase in acreage in the eastcin pint of the state whllo farther \\ostthprowlllbo a decrease owing to the ( Ufllcultv of obtaining the seed and the high price asked for It. \Vhcut will show a general Increase all over thu state. It Is Mill early to say anything very defi nite about corn , but thcro is likely to bo n pain lu acreage taking the state at largo. U U estimated that thcro will bo less tlax tan lu the state although in some localities thcro will bo tnoro than lust yoar. Il is safe to add that under the stluiulous of luo prcsuuv Mattering urospecU the farmers will crop all the land that they can conven iently handle. SITCUUTIVE MinKCTS. Trading In wheat nt Chlcatro during the wcok past has been active and of a largo volume. On Tuesday It reached the highest point of the year , t10 \ for May and $1.14 for July. During the remainder of the week the market ba * been on thu down grade with oc casional sharp rallies. It closed at the lowest point nnd 7c from the top. The bear factors have bcn magnificent spring like weather , glowing crop prospects and very much weaker foreign markets. In corn and oats the long looked for im provement in receipts has apparently begun to materialize ami the market has responded w 1th a sudden nnd severe break on both articles. Piovlslons have been comparatively dull nnd featureless The following tables will show the closing priee-3 on the loading options nt Chicago since the llrst of the month. I'ltUVIMIUNO Jtll'K STOVH.

CittCAno , April 25 [ Special Telegram to TIIK HEK ] The bo ml of tr.ido markets opened weak ut lower prices In all the leading markets , miido further declines nu an early null of selling orders , and at the end of tlio Hist hour nmiju a > cry Rood recovery to about last night's jirloes forwho.it and pork , with coarse grains heavy around the bottom tig- tires. The action early for July contracts was as follows : Wheat , il.ds' . . to Jl.tM" . to Jl OOij ; corn , GG'Sc , to fide ! oats , Al'ic ' , to W' o ! pork , fl.l 05 ami back to (13 17'i. Kvorj thin ? I" sight at the opening today was against the wheat nuikot. Statements regarding crop prospects , both winter and Hprlng , wore slinuly Haltering , The bulk of the local trade. Including many who have recently helped to advance prices , was of a bearish turn of mind. The receipts at Minneapolis \\ero remarkable at more th.in 300 cars. The market w as full of stop loss or ders to be executed on the d.'cllno. May 1 Is near at hand and the deliveries vvoio making many look around for funds to carry wheat If not sold against. So much for the homo situ ation Then Liverpool quoted spot and fu- tuies 'H\ \ lower and early red liJd ( oil at the close. London was unchanged , which was a sign of weakness where there has been so much strength of late , These comprised the chief points In favor of the sellers. On the other hand tliero wore few bulls who guv o the market support on their Ideas and trusted to better news later. It e imo , but It only got Its followers In deeper. The first peed buying after early dips on Liverpool cables ami crop news was on Now York orders. In a few minutes Dunn & . Co. . George Smith. Arthur , Orr and a fuw othois with spo clal advices wore buying all they could get. Then It transpired that buying was on conti nental cables , which Vfero said to bo strong with the worst European damage reports con tinued This was partly confirmed by 1'arls closing cables 10 to 40 centimes higher. The market made Its bulge In less thin half an hour. This was followed by the big feature of the day , a heavy raid worked by professional bears supposed to bo handed by Hoain , who was In the pit and credited with a big hand In tlio deal The start of the decline found many with profits on the bulge ready to soil , Others weio soiling on stop orders , others soiling short for the reaction and boars h immorliu prices slmi ply. The result was a break of 2o straight In shoit order.

There was n. pause and a slight rally , and wlillo many were asking what stiuck tlio market , another rush of soiling started and May went-to J1.09 and July to $1 OG'4. Those were tho'low llguros up to 1 o'clock , when May was ut Jl O'i'i and July steady around 81.07. Who it closed without any material recovery from the bottom and without any change practlcully from prices at 1 o'clock. It was when out .it tlio close that about f > 0OOQ bushels of May sold as low as SI OSS4. Closing prices for all futures were as follows !

Now York rationed thirty boat loads for o oort , * * * ' * The collapse In prices In the corn pit was duo \nrlous influences. 1'lrst , clique houses gave the market no support. Many former bulls have for days If not weeks regarded prices on too high a level. Country traders In the market have become tired of waiting for the promised advance to 73c. The estimate for Monday Is largo at 870 cars. Western In dications favored a larger movement and bet- torgradlng. 1'oielgn advices were of a weak order. The market started shaky of itself and later when wheat broke about .Ic , It was oa sy for corn pi leos TO slide down still lower. Up to 1 o'clock May sold at "iO'ic , off to Osc : July , CCJ , < > . on * toGffcC ! boptembor , die , off to C2c. ( This was a decline from the eloso yesterday of 'lo for May , 5'4o for July and 2o for Septem ber. At the close corn was HU ' 40 to "eo from the bottom figures , with May at US'ic ' , July at 04'-sC ' , or 2Uc lower for May and 2)4c ) off for July. Other months closed as follows : Aurll 09c , Juno ( > 3140 , August 01'Jo , September WJe. Oro.it excitement prevailed In oats today when the market broke fully So. The decline was caused by heavy receipt" , reports of flno weather , weakness of other cereals , as wollastho fact that about all big deals had been closed out. The mar- kotcontinued weak during thogrcater uait of the session , but recovered slightly before the close , which was made at from Mo to ' , Je alien o the low prices of tlio day. May deliv ery opened \ciindoi yesterday's closing prlco nt 5nc , advanced to 5lo and from thence dropped Ho down to 51q. Tlio close was mudo ut.M'io.
