Alionil or la t October.
The pnt week has , according to nil no-
' 'counts , witnessed llttlo change affecting the
; distribution of goods in a Jobbing way. It
> may bo said , however , that such changes as
hnvo occurred have been , If any tiling , on the
ildo of nn Improvement. Thcro is a tendency
; In Mich lines of business as have been slow
to recover from the midsummer depression
to gradually work tholr way back to the
normal , whllo such lines as wcro quick to
recover still maintain the position reached
( early In the fall ,
Tlio grocery business , which has been good
' all the fall , was without special feature last
' week , and while thoru could not bo said to
f ; have been any Improvement the vohuno of
business of the previous week was well
maintained. It xvould appear that eastern
Jobbers tnUo with a grain of allowance the re
ports of the very satisfactory business that
Is being done by western jobbers In grocer
ies. The Now York Bulletin remarks that
reports of frco western buying of various
tines of groceries have been so frequent of
late that the casual observer might reason
ably arrive at the conclusion that jobbers In
western territory are having more enviable
experience than their European , competitors
In distributing goods. A certain allowance
for xvcstcrn exuberance may bo proper , but
there Is convincing ovldenco that something
substantial remains back of it * For example ,
the most convincing ovldenco has been
brought forward to show that the proportion
tion of California produce , such as dried
and canned fruit , etc , , has been
above the average since the beginning
of the autumn season. In fact , some lines of
those goods havebeen taken In sufllclcnt
quantity to upsov previous catenations of
eastern dealers regard Ing the probable future
statistical position , The influence of largo
western distribution Is not confined nlonp to
California goods. It Is conspicuous In con
nection with tomatoes and some other lines
of canned x'cgctublcs , Is also cutting some
figure in shaping the market for salted fish ,
and not without a certain degree of Influence
upon certain of the more staple
lines of groceries. Eastern Jobbers
nro not slumbering by any moans. In
fact they are on tuo ulort to put through
the largest possible amount of business on
tno safe and sure policy , leaving the homo
producer nnd Importer to wrestle xvlth the
uncertainties Incidental to carrying surplus
stocks. Still late movements would Indi
cate that the western dealers are either
more conlldciit as to the future or taking
greater risks. In any event , it is the plain
fact that voiy frco movement to western
distributive centers has been the means of
giving a certain amount of life to the mar
ket for various lines of oods and imparting
stability to prices as well.
porno other lines as xvoll as groceries have
shown little change during the week past ,
as , for example , boots and shoes , lints and
caps nnd clothing. It may bo ( added , hoxv-
ovcr , that the clothing business this month
is way ahead of the corresponding month
last yearns concerns the volume of business.
This is something that can bo sold of very
few lines , nnd may bo duo to the crowding
into October of a part of the trade that
would on ordinary seasons come to hand in
September.
The dry goods business continues very
active and local houses are doing n very
satisfactory business.It looks'noxv ns if the
volume of business for tlio month would
ho.w an Increase oVoi % October a year ago.
It'll ! does hot It will DO close lip to it.
Jobbers in iardwaro are reporting an im
proved trade in tholr lino. Business Is not.
yet up to whcro It xvas a year ago , but the
reports from the country are moro cheering
and the orders are moro numerous. The fact
is that orders are coming in as vapidly ns
they did a.year ago , . but they are not so
largo.
1 hero has been a moro cheerful feeling in
the -wholesale district during the past foxv
days , owing to the prospect of the speedy re
peal of the silver bill , The general opinion
union e local lobbers Is that the rcncHl of the
bill,111 question will bo the signal fora gen
eral revival all along the lino. They do not
Iqqk upon the repeal as beluga panacea for all
the ills of trade , but as people generally nro
waiting for favorable action on that question
before branching out to any ox'cnt in any
business enterprise It follows that trade
must bo slow , so long as the ilntil settlement
of the question is nn uncertainty.
'Collections are not very actlvo and from
all sources came complaints as to the dif
ficulty of securing prompt payment of obli
gations when due. Reports from the coun
try indicate that farmers are not marketing
their crops very rapidly , nnd until farm
products move moro rapidly no great im
provement in collections can bo anticipated.
The clearings for the xveok ending on
Saturday show n slight decrease as com
pared with the previous xveok. At the same
tlmo the decreasti as compared xvlth the
corresponding week a year ago xvas only 21
per cent , ns agulnsi 27 par cent the previous
week. The decrease In the clearings for the
whole United States was 20 per cent for the
past xvcck , xvhilo. for the previous week it
amounted to 112 per cent. Omaha still com
pares very favorably xvlth other western
cities in the matter of clearing house re
ports. Cities llko Minneapolis , St. Paul , .
Denver , St. Joseph and Sioux City suoxv a
detu-ou.su much larger than Omaha.

which , considering the first-class condition
In which the fruit wilt bo handled , seems
low enough. Freights on shipments direct

The pant month has demonstrated clearly
the Imiiortanco of figs in the foreign dried

This fruit is usually Hrst In tlm field at the

Unoipeotedly Heavy Northwestern Receipts'
Today an Important Paotor.

CHICAGO , Oct. 23. Unexpectedly heavy
northwestern receipts today knocked out
th 11 theory of n falling off in the wheat
movement. Incidentally n bulge In the
price was also knocked out , It was also
found that 1,200,000 bu. of the week's experts -
ports went from Pacific ports , and the vlsl-
bio supply might show a big increase re
gardless of the better clearances. Com se
cured only a X@6 ° advance. Provisions
closed with a trlllo loss.
Wheat nt the opening was from J o to % o
higher than yestetday's closing nnd held
quite firmly ror awhile , then cased off , prices
declining fc , ruled rather steady nnd the
closing was about at lusjJo ilgurcs. Cables
wcro stronger nnd higher , the clearances for
the week from both coasts wore 600,000 bu.
larger of wheat nnd Hour than last week ,
the Now York bank statement was favor
able , railroad stocks were higher and
n general buoyant feeling pervaded nil
departments , influenced by the news from
Washington. Ilowovor , the receipts In the
northwest for the week wore about 300,000
bu. larger than the preceding week , nnd the
export clearances of wheat from five of the
Atlantic seaboard and gulf ports wore about
200,000 bu. smaller than the preceding wook.
It was generally estimated that the visible
supply would show an increase of about 1-
(500,000 ( bu. against an increase of 2,201,000 bu.
the corresponding weak a year ago.
Corn opened qulto strong at from J o to
} { c advance , nnd in some instances a further
improvement of ? < fe too was gained.
Later the fooling was not so strong , and
prices gradually settled back agaln.from ) fete
too , and the market closed rattier quiet ut
the reduction. As usual on the closing nay
of the week business was very moderate.
Anticipated heavy receipts on Monday nnd
Tuesday was a' depressing-factor toward the
ond.
ond.Oats
Oats were steady , prices averaging
slightly hotter , and the close on the near
futures was from i o to &c higher , but on
May steady. Thcro was no noiv feature.
Business In provisions was confined tp the
local operators and was not by them in
dulged in to a heavy extent. The market
was generally firm until near the close , xvho'n
the setback In wheat bccmcd to pull the
props from under the hog products. Pork is
Ma loss costly than last night. Lard nnd
ribs are about unchanged.
Estimated receipts for Monday : Wheat ,
220 cars ; corn , Gin cars ; oats,280 carsj hogs ,
23,000 head.

Izrit by Strong Spccubitloii.
NBXV YOUK , Oct. 23. The xvcck closed on
the Stock exchange xvlth an actlvo _ and
strong speculation. All conditions seemed .
to favor an upward market this morning. A
good bank statement xvas looked for and It
came actually favor.iblo , asvis ; antici
pated.
There xvas heavy huylng on the expecta
tion nnd rumored purohases on the realiza
tion. The special In tluenccs xvorklng on the
market vvoro aU on the hull sulo. The
London advices sho\x-cd tin Improx'omont in
Amctlcan securities and there xvas some
buylng-for the foreign ticcount and a llttlo
selling as'well ' ; Manhattan was iu demand
by operators xvho desired to obtain a conj
trolling interest. Atchison xvas bought for
the Boston account and there xvoro largo
purcliasinp orders for Heading and Phila
delphia. , 'A scarcity of Veatorn Union stock
xvas a warningto , the short interest to cbx-cr.
The Washington noxvs xvas very fax-orablo
loan Immcdlato'x'Oto on the silver blllln
tho'scuatb and this' discouraged operations
on the part of the boars and left the mantel
practically In-tho hnnds of the bulls. The
opening pricesxvoro higher than yesterday's
closing sales and tlie market moveU up until
about 10:30 , xvhou salesto realize profits
hrouKliyhbo'ut' ii 'fractional , rpacti6h. The
depression , xvas of as brief duration as it'xvas
slight , and the upward movement xvus
quickly resumed and continued to the close.
The final quotations xvoro iu many cases
at the highest ilgurca of the day and
in n few cases moro than a small
fraction hclow the best. Corclago xvas an
exception to the general list , the publica
tion of the receiver's report hoing unfavora
ble. The grangers shared largely in the im
provement.- . Paul rising 2J I'01' ' cent ;

The Post says : There xvas a rather gen
eral feeling yesterday that the stock mar
ket hud "ox'ordlsoounted" the prospect for
repeal. Today's market pretty clearly
proved the contrary. So sar from u market
overconlldently bought by every trader on
the expectation of a vote , it appears that
there Had been heavy soiling on the rlso
from vtiguo suspicions that trouble might
turn up. Such speculators found their cal
culations badly upset by yesterday's lalo
x-oto on the Pollcr resolution , the Hrst ac
tual trial ot strength under n senate roll
call. This happened ox'cr night , nnd indeed
too many quick dox'olopmouts have como
about between market's close und opening
to make Investing .ventures based upon theo
ries of now ardors obstructions.

There have been very slight changes In
the marketing of stock the past week as
compared with the week previous nud tiio
corresponding week last year. The figures
are ns follows :
( 'atticHoss. . Shoop.
Itrcflptfl this wpok 21.715 ! 27,858 5,190
IteculptH last week V2 ,02l U5U34 0,410
riiimo week last year. . . . 22,231 : )3M1 ) 6,1011
It will bo observed that although ton-
day's receipts of cattto , 7,7Sfl head , xx-uro the
heaviest on record , 1,000 heavier titan over
before on Hits market , the week's nvoipts
fell slightly short of last week , although
considerably In excess of the corrcsjiondlng
week of 18U2. The total receipts for the
month of October will undoubtedly oxcocd
110,000 head , or 20,000 more than were re
ceived during any single month slnco the
yards wcro opened for business.
The market , in a great measure , followed
the course of the receipts. Gaily In the
week , with heavy supplies , prices wcro on
the down turn , nnd by Wednesday the ordi
nary grades of beef steers and butchers'
stock wcro selling lOc toJiOo lower than the
close of last weok. This had a tendency to
reduce the marketing of stock , nnd this In
turn resulted lu a firming up of values , so
that closing prices for the xvock are fully as
strong as a week ago.
The week closed with a comparatively
Hunt run , very llttlo over 100 cars , the gen
eral quality of the offerings being pretty
much the same as they have been all week ,
llrttcr Price * Killed.
With lavorablo reports from eastern mar
kets , a very active general do in and and com
paratively few really desirable beef stcors
on sale , the market was active and stronger
prices ruled on all suitable grades In fact ,
stronger prices ruled on all grades. A few
loads of pretty ( rood corned cattle changed
bunds readily nt $4.70 nnd $4.80 , white the
few decent range steers In the yards went
on the scales at around $3 to Kl.tr ! > . With
the exception of the late arrivals n good
clearance was effected , tlio general tone to
the market being firm throughout.
Cows and mixed stock-made up less than a
third of the supply , nnd with a good demand
from all local houses and some oulsldo In
quiry tlio market was < active and a shade
stronger all around. The big bulk "of the
fair to good butchers' cows chanced hands
ut from $2 to $2.30. Calves wcro In active
demand and firm ut from 82.23 to $4.50 for
common to cholco stock. Hough stock was
freely moved at fully steady prices , gen
erally around $1.75 to $2.25.
Conditions nave improved considerably the
past day or two in the stacker nud feeder
branch of tlio trade. The excessive supplies
of the early part of the week had been pret'.y
well cleaned up and tire fresh stock moved
freely at good strong prices , the demand be
ing good from both yard traders and out
siders. Good to fancy feeders are quoted at
from $3 to ? ! ! .r > 0 : fair to good at from $2.CO to
$3 , with common and inferior ut from $2 to
$2.50.
