The Jobbing trade of Omaha Is fair for
this season of the year and taut is about nil
tUnt can bo snld In its favor. Tlioro Is no
rush nor Is it up to what It wns earlier In
the season. At the same tlmo thcro ap-
poara to bo no serious cause for complaint. ,
The Jolihors arc following a conservative
plan and arc not trying to force trade , but a
good many of them appear to bo content to
accept a moderate amount of business and
wait for the situation to Improve. Some
nro anticipating a rather qulot trade all
summer and are not expecting any great ac
tivity In commercial circles before late In
the fall when the condition of trade will bo
dependent upon tlio outcomoof the crops.
In tlio western portion el the state tllcro
appears to bo some apprehension regarding
the corn crop and for that reason a very con-
acrvatlvo fooling has been engendered among
tha retail trade of these sections. It Is a
conservatism based on good business princi
ples and jobbers do not care to break It
down and talto the chances of paying for
their anxiety to soil goods later on.
In the eastern sections of tlio iitato thcro
Is no denying the fact that tlie financial dis
turbances linvo had much to do with the
moderate trailo experienced by the Jobbers.
Consumers are not buying any more freely
than tliev nro compelled to and the country
morclmnt docs not feel llko loading up his
shelves with poods that ho may have to
carry for some time before finding consumers
for thorn.
Tlio vcrv fact that the merchants of the
, I atato are following a conservative policy Is a
\t \ > Very good Indication that business will cou-
tlnuo fair In splto of any complications that
tnlpht arlso.
Tlio bank clearings of Omaha show an In
crease over the corresponding time last year ,
the gain for-tho past week amounting to 13
per cent. The clearings for the past wpok
averaged overl,000.0X ( ) per day. Business
inoa generally tire commenting upon the fact
that the financial scare of the past week had
Bo llttlo effect upon business. Quito a num
ber of linns hail funds tied up in the bank
failure , but not to a sunicieut extent to
cripple thorn or to have any very noticeable
effect upon business. Homo of the Jobbers
report that local collections have been de
layed to some extent , but that is about all.
The Kansas City Star observes that the
conditions which made It possible for Omaha
to successfully meet the ordeal through
Which It has passed are not peculiar to that
cltv. They exist In most of the western
cities , and notably In these towns which are
located in tlio transmlsslsslppl section ,
There Is a certain degreeof conservatism
about towns which depend mainly upon ag
riculture for their support which Is nol
found in manufacturing centers. In Omalin
the bull : of the wbalth Is realized from the
products of the soil and the chief reliance oi
commerce Is the grain and live stock whicli
como In from the surrounding territory.
These sources of revenue have boon exceed
ingly abundant for several years past in the
Missouri valley and have contributed tc
the solidity of the towns which handle these
products. ' The sumo influences which hav <
fortllled Omaha against llnanoial ilcpresstoi
and panic are actlvo In Kansas City , and Ir
otlior western towns which have a magnill
cent agricultural domain to uraw upon
Tliero Is no reason to fear that thcso sup
plies will fall during the present season
The wheat harvest will not nearly approxl
mnto the phenomenal yield of last year , bill
"It will prove very far short of a failure
The general crop prospects are good , and ai
increase of other products is likely to maki
up for tho'shprtage ' in wheat. Corn prom
Iscs unusually well and pasturage is abun
Uant. and that means plenty of cattle am
hogs.

The Omaha manager of H. O. Dun & Co ,
Bpcaking of the coinniorci.il stltuation I :
Omaha during the past week , says :
"For the iirst time In this city's hlstor ;
a . national bank and a savings ban
both suspended Within twenty-four hour :
"Wo had all hoped that Omah
would null through thcso trying time
without any such misfortune. A week age
although It was known in commercial circle
that the McCaguo Savings bank was suffci
ing considerable loss of deposits , it was sti
hoped that institution would bo able to pu
through. I think under ordinary circun
stances thcro Is no doubt but that arrangt
mcnts could have been made by the d
rectors to save themselves , but Just 1101
It is very hard to realize money upon re :
estate securities. It Is too early yet to Ion
cast the probable outcomeof thcso two su :
pensions. All that wo can do Is to hoj :
that tlmo , skill and the admitted honest
of the pcoplo connected with these two ii
st Itutions will enable them to got out c
1 thi'ir difllculty without loss to depositors.
"Tho suspension of the AlcUaguo followc
Immediately by that of the American Ni

the city. This was anticipated , an
while thcro was considerably oxcltcmoi

settled down to its usual daily routine. . Tl

wiito difference of opinion nmoi
banking mon as to the Judgment dl
playud by the several bankers on this c
c.ision. bomo Insist that all should ha
taken tlio sixty elays limit and stopped tl
run in Its liu'ipioncy. Others say tlio stroi
banks were justilieil in their notion. In u
opinion the run of the three banks naiiv
was not a very severe tost. It w
brought about by momentary oxcll
mcut and dlod out in a very she
tlmo. I think the refusal of t
smaller banks to pay depositors until aft
Klxty days did more to < iuull the oxcltomc

If the Omaha Savings and others had n
inut the demands of their depositors In whc

feel tmsy until after congress convenes a

ever would have occurred ,
"it is nousenso 10 say that the run was
beuelit to the banks , which parted witli th
funds. The advertising may be valuali
but on general principles the savings
dilutions are entitled to duo notlco fn
their depositors , and they wolud do well
establish and maintain their rights. Ifc

The hot weather of the past week has
stimulated the demand for Inmons to n great
cxtont and the trade isqulto satisfactory.
The local gardeners are supplying the
trade to a great extent with homo grown
vegetables thus cutting oft some business
from the dealers.
Some of the peas recolvod by express dur
ing the past few days did not pay shipping
charge's owing to the fact that the demand
is telng filled mostly by the local growers.
California lemon growers nro spending n
great deal of tlmo and inonoy In trying to
Ic.arn the secret of curing their fruit so that
It can bo marketed in competition with Im
ported lemons.
This year there will bo between 3,000 and
4,000 acres of votary planted In Kalamazoo ,
Mich. This is A larger acreage ! than usual ,
ami is duo In the mala to the largo orders
Irom the World's frilr city.
Reports from tlio Georgia melon-growing
districts would Indicate that the crop Is In
very flno shape , and it is estimated some
0KK ( ) cars of good melons will bo shipped
from there this summer. -
Missouri strawberries will soon bo num
bered among the things that wero. It has
been rather nn unsatisfactory season so far
on strawberries and It is now too late to ex
pect a good showing from any section.
Oranges nro not in largo supply and at
times the Omaha market has bcoa nearly
bare of Uivcrsldcs. Thcro are but few seed
lings hero and the main receipts are now
Mediterranean sweets , which are coming
through In good condition.
The ofliclal figures given out show a fallIng -
Ing off of the watermelon acreage from 11,072
last year to 8a,17 this year In the territory
from Vnldosta , Ga. , to Ualnbrldgo aud Mon-
tlcollo , ITIa , , to Albany. The yield per aero ,
though , Is expected to bo butter and the
crop is about the same.
At the mooting of the Florida Fruit ex
change , held during the past week , the sec
retary reported that the not averages on
oranges for the-season at the shipping de
pots ranged from § 1.33 to J1.4U per box at the
different markets. The coming crop Is esti
mated at 4,500,000 boxes.
Strawberries and currents are In bloom
for a full crop In Wisconsin , and the blue
borrlos promise to bo unprecedented. A
crcat disappointment is felt in regard to
apple prospects. The trees , for some season
not apparent at this time , show but few
blossoms , and the yield will probably bo
light.
Orange trees In Arizona are so full of fruit
this year that many of the young trees have
to bo proppeu up to keep the limbs from
breaking off. The outlook for the oraugo
Industry in the Salt Hivcr Valley was never
brighter. The young orchards are in prlmo
condition and are coming alfijig nicely. The
acreage the past year has been Increased.
Shippers and dealers In game as well as
sportsmen , will bo pleased to know that
thcro is a very good prospect for a largo
crop of prairie chickens In Iowa this season.
Nearly all the prairlos wcro burned over last
fall , nntl the eggs that are usually destroyed
by flro in the spring wcro saved , assuring a
very largo increase in the uumucr of
chickens.
At the present time there are only about
two grades of butter recognized on tbo
Omaha market. A few nackugcs of the very
best or fancy butter soil to the local retail
trade direct at 15@10c , hut only a small pro
portion of the best butter will bring that
price , and If the retail trade will not take
the butter it has to bo sold as packing stock
at practically ono price.
There is a good deal of complaint about
the poor quality of the eggs that are coming
to this market. Strictly fresh eggs are not
at all plenty , and it is necessary to candle
several cases of eggs before ono case of good
eggs can bo secured. While the tops are
selling nt pretty h'ood prices thcro are so
many seconds that tto average is brought
down considerably. However , eggs are
higher on this market than on the eastern
markets.
During the past week a good many old
potatoes were roSclved and us dealers were
all anticipating a rapid increase in the ar
rivals of now potatoes they were all anxious
to unload their old stock as rapidly aspossi
ble. As a result there ; was n decline .in the
price. A largo proportion of the old stock
offered for sale was of inferior quality. The
demand Is rapidly growing for new potatoes
and the season for old stock is practically
over. As near as can bo learned thcro arc
a gooa many now potatoes on the road and n
good many are predicting hexivy receipts foi
next week. Both California and the soutt
are shipping.

CIIICAOO , Juno 17 , The corn mnrkot broke
down today nnd the drop was not so Hhnrp as
was the advance of Friday. Tlioro was , bow-
over , n reduction of about 1C n bu. Tlio French
duly question was moro clearly understood.
Tliero were numerous dispatches saying the
nation was only on hay , with no prospect of
ether removals. It wns established by past
records that Franco only tnkos from 0,000-
000 bu. to 25,000,000 bu. on the outsldo
of corn on the average nnd that thu
question of free admission of course
grains wns not so very Important to American
grain merchants nftor nil. Tliero was.jOf
course , general selling out of corn by these
who bought on tbo scare ycsturday. The sen
timent nt the slnrt was easier and first trades ,
were nnywhore from i c to ? Jc under the tlnnl
figures of yoslurdaynntl allor ruling stonily
for awhile , continued logrow weaker , selling
olTSicmoro. Later the prlco rallied a trlllo ,
ruled fairly steady but nt the cle > so had lost
from JJ'ic.
There was only n light trade In wheat today
and nn easier feeling oxlsted. Tlm opening
was easier and llrst sales were from about thu
same as yesterday's closing to 'Jo lower , re
ceded from Uc to ? e' , advanced from Jfi'-to ? ( * ,
then receded Jic , , thu market touching Inxlelo
prices , ruled steady and the closing was about
ic lower for July and 'Sclowur for Septuuibor
ilian ye-sterdav. Thu weakness wns duo to thu
unfavorable Sow Vork bank statement and
llio reported Increasing shipments of wheat
from Australia nnd South American ports.
Tliero was MIIIIU business in thu wny of
chanulng over July to September , but. the mar
ket was generally very quiet and dull. The
clearances from tlio Atlantic coast were about
Lhu same us last week , nnd It Is calculated that
the visible .supply will show n good de'cronso.
Oat * wasqulutnnd nshndn lower In value ,
the close bolng made at from MHc under
yesterday's figures. Only n mouorato scalpIng -
Ing business was transacted and thu provision
market strengthened bv the receipts of 2.000
liogs loss Until was estimated yesterday.
Thu llrmness ot prices , however , ndelod
scarcely anything to the volumu of the day's
business. Trading In pork was again conspic
uously llRhu Thuro wore n few transactions
In lard and ribs at from DC to 7 Jc improve

Wool .Market.
BOSTON , Juno 17. Tliero lias been n
llttlo bolter demand for wool during the
past week and there have been moru manufac
turers on the market , but thu business ot tlio
week has been mostly In small lots. Alamo
number of sample bags have been taken , but
as yet no very largo linos. The sales of all
kinds for the week have been 1.12H.40U Ibs. ,
Including foreign and domestic. The tone of
the market continues weak and prices are In
favor of buyers , but It Is illlllcult to determine
what prlco a largo line of now wool- would
bring. The present quotations are ) mostly for
old wool , and it Is certain that now It Is not
worth as much. Holders , however , vary
widely In their views , there being a dlll'urencu
between them of .several cents per lb. on the
same ! class of wool In many casm. Llttlo lias
been done In washed lloeces the past weok.
Prices for both Ohio and .Michigan wools have
now settled down on a comparatively low
basis , and but llttlo further depreciation Is an
ticipated. In thu west the market In Ohio
ami Michigan has boon very slow. Farmers
are likely to hold their wool. In Ohio aud
Pennsylvania most of them are asking 25c.

NEW YORK. Juno 17. It is probable
that Edward M. Field , the son of the
late Cyrus W. Kiold , will soon bo
brought to trial on the indictment for
wrecking the firm of Field , Lind-
ley , Woichora & Co. a year
ago , and from tlio assets of
which firm 81,000,000 is still missing.
District Attorney Niooll has written to
Superintendent Judson II. Andrews of
tlio state insane asylum at BulTalo , ask
ing for a report as to whether Mr. Field
is sane or insane This action is the re
sult of published information that Mr.
Field was practically a free man , having
been allowed to leave the asylum alone
and visit Buffalo , if not indeed to como
to Now York , and to do about as. ho
pic-used. This information came from
Dr. Charles F. McDoilald , state commis
sioner of lunacy. To him Mr. Field had
admitted that ho had boon given his
liberty.
Dr. McDonald called upon the district
nttoinoy today at the lattor's request.
Tlioro was a brief conference between
them regarding the Field matter and
then Mr. Niooll met Chief Justice Van
Brunt , who committed Mi * . Field to the
asylum. Afterward Mr. Nicoll wrote
the letter to Dr. Andrews.

eral IJiHsell for charges against fourth
class postmasters , which was recently
rescinded , a great many letters were
Hied. Applicants have been driven to
their wits' end to invent or procure
reasons for the removal of the Incum
bents , but it was loft to a North Care
linmn to make the oddest and most re
markable , charges over Hied against n
political opponent. „
Dallas , N. U. , has a postmaster
named Pazour. Mr. Pa/our has been in
ollico about three years and no ono haa
over objected to him before. Here is
what Mr. I'a/our's would-be successor
writes about him and what has been
gravely Hied at the Postolllco depart
ment :
"ITo has no regard whatsoever for hla
personal appearance , which in itsoll
makes it very disgusting to the ladioa
who are compelled to call for their own
mail. Ho wcarfl neither cent , vest ,
socks nor shoes at this Kcnsnn of tie ]
year. Neither has ho any regard an to
his manner of conversation , being very
foul , dirty-mouthed and profane. " _ i
