The situation In the money market no far
AS the local banking business I * concerned
docs not show much change since n week ago.
There Is some complaint of tight money , but
it originates principally from local retail
dealers , especially from the smaller concerns
and tlioso doing a credit business.
The small firms without very extensive
credit nt the banks , that hnvo been nailing
goods on tlino , llnd It difficult either to collect
| outstanding accounts or to borrow money to
\
* ' meet their own obligations. That oxblnlns
why the failures in the city have been con
fined largely to houses doing only a modoro'o
business.
It Is generally admitted that collections In
the c'ty ' aru slow. Jobbers experience a
Kreatdeal moro trouble In this respect In the
city than in the country , whoru the collections
nro very fair.
Trade In the country Is In batter shape
than In the city and this is seen from the fact
that the complaints about poor business come
Ife from llnnsdolngaloc.il business , whllo the
P" jjiy jobbers who reach out Into a wldo .section of
F the country llnd very little fault. Just now
I TIII : joiiiuso TiiAin :
9f the city is light , but It will compare favor-
Mily with other seasons. In some Hues very
far as the actual sales are
little Is cloltii : so
roncprncd , but the Jobbers are getting things
Into shape for the fall oponiiiL' .
In hardware nolUngof interest is reported.
I'rii-iis remain about steady , and while tr.ide
now is only fair tlicro are indications thai it
will bo largo this fall. Jobbers do not ex
pect goods to move very freely for the next
two weeks or so.
In Now York it is siiid of the hardware
trndo that some few returns have boon re
ceived from traveling salesman , but only
enough to show that they are getting down
to work , without as vet any fair indication of
what the amount is likely to bo. Dealers ,
however , anticipate a fair general distribu
tion this fall. As there has been such n cau
tious method and light form of ordering for
Bomo time past , dependent tratio must of ne
cessity , it is argued , bo short of supplies.
Local stocks are ijuite ready to moot any or
dinary call that may bo made upon them ,
nnd probably at former cost , but it Is very
will
doubtful if calculations upon concessions
bo realized for any leading staple. Nails re
main much the same. A certain fair trade
demand prevails all the while , but there is
no hurry , sn.ip or vigor to the inovotnont.and
buyers'retain most of the advantage. It Is
however , doubtful If the current rate , would
bo much shaded even on long lines of stock ,
should such bo called for.
Of Omaha's grocery Jobbing trade about
the same can bo said as a week ago. There
has been no particular change in the market
on sugar or coffee , in fact , all grocery staples
have been very steady. Omaha Jobbers nro
DOW bald to bo scliinc suuar at I
cent profit and nro almost as
per
low on colToo. Omaha is one of the lowest
points on the Missouri river in grocery sta
ples. Trade in this line showed a little Im
provement during the past six days , and sev
eral opening stocks wore sold. The new
packs of fruits and vegetables nro coming in
nnd grocery stocks are getting heavy.
At Now York it is noted that the ; present
condition of the general market for bulk lots
of groceries is somewhat variable , business
not settling down into regular uniform channels
certain amount of dissatisfaction
nels , and of course a
satisfaction Is from time to time expressed.
Some coed deals are under way. liow-
very goou
that after the opening
cvcr , nnd it is calculated
ing of the month tlio expansion of orders in
dicating a rise of tho.tido of fall trade , will
bo felt in a very marked deirrco. A little
moro speculative feeling inlcht add some
sm.p to affairs of a fairly beneficial character ,
yet after all a conservative view suggests
that the methodical hand-to-mouth system is
unquestionably the sound one , and materially
lessens the danger of llnanelal distress and
complications. The general run of supplies
nnd assortments In first hancis arc now fairly
adopted to all ordinary wants , nnd while
owners are expecting all the return the mar
ket naturally affords , ! hey meet demands with
reasonable ! promptness.
The Bulletin says of the Now York coffee
market that there nro not a few operators
waiting with a great dca\of apparent conll-
ijcnco for a break In the market for Urazlls ,
believing evidently that the consuming do-
irmml has demonstrated Its ability to stand
off , and will not bo coerced Into Investment
except upon the force of moro Imperative
necessity ; and furthermore that there is a
sufficient indication of weakness at primal
points to admit ol a bearish feeling. But
this does not got around the fact that for im
mediate use the supply is both small and illy
assorted , and that holders who control any
thing of n really attractive character possess
advantages they are enabled to make good
use of every tlino buyers want an invoice.
The conditions prevailing in the dry goods
Jobbing trade of Omaha are pr.ictlcally un
changed. The movement of good Is neces
sarily small at this season of the year uni ) the
most that Jobbers can do is to lav In a now-
stock of goods and wait for the revival of
trade , when the orders for fall commence to
arrive.
The Now York market on dry goods during
the past week has been quiet so far as opera
tions dependent upon visiting buyers wcro
, concerned , but orders by mail and wire wcro
probably quite up to recent averages. There
has been little doing iu seasonable goods , and
the demand for fall styles in prints , wash
fabrics nnd dress goods has ruled iuicl. | In
ginghams and dress goods for fall trade the
situation Is fairly well defined , and in both
agents are well under order , with prices firm.
In fall prints prospects are not quite so clear.
So far as the season has progressed the west
mill northwest until ] has boon good , but the
dciuaud from the south has proved as pool
for dark styles as It did for light during tin
noason lately closed. Agents look forward tc
an increased supplementary trade with oihei
sections making some amends for southern do
llcioncics , and hope for un linprovemonulatoi
on In thu south Itbolf. In the meantime free
tdilpmunts nro progressing on account of orders
dors already recorded , nnd prices are uu
changed.
The No'.v York Dry Goods Kconomlstsays
Standing upon the threshold of the aulutui
aeasoti , the point of view U well chosen from
-which to nurt'uy the past and the future. The
results of the spring business to manufacturers
ors and Jobbers havu not realized expeuta
lions , liy jobbers a large porcenlitgo of llu
spring's supplies weru laid out and complctue
by forwardlngs before the straining effects
of the lluanchilauto of last autumn became
apparent. Very happily for the tuxtllo inter-
e.st at largo tliu wrecking of fortunes line ;

absorbed their attention nnd capital ,
In thu face of a very stringent mone
market , which would naturally have n ro
blrlcllvu operation upon consumers , It Is ex
ceedingly gratifying to know that incrchauu
have been agreeably disappointed In sales ,
And If the net prollti for the past season
wcro not as largo as hoped for ttiu leases

NKW Yoitic , Aug. 1. The 1'ost says : If
anybody doubted that tlicro was a largo and
nnwleldiy short interest In thu market today's
movement of prices ought to have settled tlio
question. The buylii. of the inornlo : was
mostly of coverings of shorts , and as usual
ho small fry of tlio hoar trailers , see
ing Unit the loaders had alieady covorud
up a good snare of their contracts , indulged In
a hurried scramble to u-et bnuk their own
stocks and In so doing sent prices up at an un
usually lively paco. Tlio general character if
the market was similar to that of last TI.IM-
day when the boar leaders shook off thulr
comfortably numerous following.
As was usual in recunt weeks , thu statement
of Ilia bank averages are entirely ducuptlve
and Its returns of oash are probably at least
12.000,000 away from the actual facts of
