The jobbers of Omaha are full ot enthusi
asm over the magnificent outlook for the
corn crop of Nebraska , and their confidence
increases In proportion to the Improvement
noticeable In that crop from day to day.
Almost all jobbers are receiving reports
dally from their traveling men and cus
tomers , and the cheering news contained In
these reports during the past ten days Is
responsible * for the good fueling manifest
everywhere In tha jobbing district of Omaha.
As usual , at this season of the year , busi
ness Is not so very active , but still there Is
a vpry fair volume of goods moving. The
shrinkage In values has been so great In
many lines ot merchandise that It requires a
Rood many more goods than It did a year
ago to amount to the same In dollars. For
tlmt reason , when the totals are examined
alone and compared with those of a year
ago thcro. Is danger of ono bolng misled us
to the actual volume of goods moving out
from jobbers' hands. Orders for fall goods
are coming In quite freely , and from their
size It would appear that the retail mer
chants of the state have considerable confi
dence In the future of business.
The fact thai farmers are very busy In
their corn fields just at present Is no doubt
keeping down the volume of trade In a re
tail way In the , country. Still , collections
are generally reported as fully up to the
average for thin reason.
Unquestionably there arc some signs of
an Improvement In the business situation.
They ore to bo noticed In a revival of Inter
est on the part of buyers , which Is an ex-
.collnnt Indication of some Improvement In
business. Under this Influence prices have
advanced In the various markets ot the
country on some few lines , nt least. During
the past month cash wheat has risen Gc , and
June corn nearly 3c. Pork has advanced
007Gc per barrel. In many lines of mer
chandise there has been a stiffening of val
ues , It nothing more. In cases where no
advance has been established the decline
lias been checked after a' downward ten
dency for months past.
Everything goes to show that country
merchants nro very favorably disposed
toward Omaha , and that the great bulk of
all the business In the state will come to
this city. There Is also a disposition among
the jobbers to pay more attention to the
state trade , which Is becoming of far more
Importance than that ot more distant sec
tions.
FRUIT TRADE.
The wholesale fruit trade has been In a
very flourishing condition during the past
week , so far ns the volume of business Is
concerned. Several cars of California sum
mer fruits have been received dally at this
point and sold at auction. This fruit has
been taken by local dealers and by the
dealers In the leading market centers ns far
cast as the Mississippi river. Brokers
representing these outside purchasers have
been heavy buyers at all the sales.
Prices on California fruits have ruled very
Jjw hero , as well as at other markets , In
fact so low that after railroad charges and
commissions arc paid the grower can have
very llttlo left for his fruit and the ex
pense of picking and packing.
This Is certainly a low year on fruit , and
If price Is any Inducement the consumption
ought to bo greatly Increased. Dealers ,
however , do not anticipate much change In
thlai respect , as the. closeness ot money will
have a tendency to cause consumers to
economize on 'fruit ' , as well as on other
things.
Grocery Jobbers ore predicting that the
low price of green or fresh fruits will cause
tha growers to evaporate more than usual
with the natural result that evaporated
fruits will bo low. Samples of the first
car ot the new crop of California evaporated
apricots have arrived and are very fine.
The car will be delivered to Omaha jobbers.
DANK CLEARINGS.
The decrease In the bank clearings at
Omaha last week wore only 13 per cent , as
compared with a year ago. The decrease
for the whole country was over 20 per cent ,
showjng that Omaha Is above the average.
Tho" city of Buffalo , in spite of Its great
manufacturing and shipping Interests , has
fallen oft 58 per cent. Denver shows a
decrease of 38 per cent.
Omaha's clearings are holding up remark
ably well , and out of the seventy-eight clearIng -
Ing house cities reported by Dradstreet's only
eleven show larger totals than Omaha. The
strength of this city In the matter ot clear
ings Is especially noticeable when com
parisons are made on a basis ot population.
A seed many cities of far greater popula
tion , and cities that have long been recog
nized as great commercial centers , fall be
hind Omaha In the matter of clearings. The
following is a partial list of the clearing
house cities , showing tha population In
1890. and the clearings for the week under
review. , ,

From the above it will bo noted that cities
like Detroit , Cleveland. Milwaukee and Buf
falo , having a population of over 200,000 ,
fall behind Omaha when It comes to the
matter of clearings. Sioux City has dropped
down to $57GGSl and the week's clearings

day's clearings at Omaha.

Mr. W. II. lloberaon , local manager of
II. Q. Dun & Co. , speaking of trade , snya.
"Thla has been a glorious week for Ne
braska , rains almost everywhere ami crop
prospects Improving ns erccy day goes by.
In some localities there Is more rain than
the exigencies demand , but generally speak
ing the ground Is greedily absorbing all
that falls and converting It Into corn Btulk.s.
Our annual crop und trade report will be
printed In Monday's papers and will show
the situation nil over Nebraska to be oc-
cldpdly encouraging , although there are a
few localities where everything Is burned
up. und farmers nro completely discouraged.
Taking the Btutu at large , however , there
jiover was a better prospect for a corn crop
nnd never before have we had so large an
acreage. All this means that Oninlm will
this fall have the largest wholesale trade
In her history , provided , of course , that
nothing Interferes with the realization of
our present hopes In regard to the corn
crop. The reason for this is plain : Country
merchants have reduced their stocks to the
minimum. They ore buying only from hand
to mouth nnd at the nearest market. The
stringency of the times and the extra care
with regard to credits has forced many
merchants who never before patronized this
mitlket to come here for their goods. They
Iinvu been well treated and well natlslled.
Consequently they may be regarded as reg
ular customers. U Is safe to say that of
every 100 customers now buying In Omaha
markets twenty-live have never before
given this city their trade.
The uncertainty In regard to tariff legis
lation has been perhaps more Intense within
the last week than at any tlmo since the
Wilson bill was Introduced. This lias a
bad effect upon trade throughout the coun
try , and even the Interior is affected.
Kuetern business men will do practically
nothing In the way of new business until
the tariff law Is out of the way. It matters
very little to the country at large whether
It U passed or killed. All that business
> eople want now Is to know what they can
lepend upon.
'lleUll business during the week has not
been specially rushing , except at stores ad
vertising special aulea and otherwise forc
ing trade. There are comparatively few
unemployed people In the city , but steady
employment la not always available to the
common laborers , and a reduction In
arias , combined with the uncertainty of
ltlnn > , has Induced usual customers of
, retail stores to buy light. Savings
mka Dhow a gain In deposits. Indicating
.at people are economising. I.ocal retail
collections are reported better. Ilcal estate
1ms never been more quiet.
"At the banks money Is reported plenty
nnd business dull. As nn Illustration of the
depressed state of Imslness generally I
may state tlmt n lending banker In this city
who In worth millions nnd who has n great
variety of Interests , stated to a friend of
mine recently tlmt not one single branch of
Industry In which htn money was employed
wan paying running expenses , nnd this In-
cluilnl one of the large banks. He went
farther and said tlmt this condition had
prevailed for a year and that , although no
was rated as a very rich man , he was
actually annoyed at times for want of
ready cash.
"This thing cannot continue. There must
be a change and the change must be for the
better. It Is not legislation that Is needed
to bring about prosperity , but ronlldcnce
nnd certainty. As noon ns we are ccrtam
of the present we shall .be confident of the
future. The moral of this Is that congress
should transact Us business without further
delay nnd go home , and the demngoguo
should take a vacation.
"At South Omaha the week has been
light , though receipts of hogs and sheep
slightly exceed rerelpts of last week. In
the cattle trade the week ban been ills-
coiiniujlng , receipts being light and foreign
markets showing no Improvement. Never
theless , the fact tlmt receipts were light
lmn helped to hold prices steady. Hogs are
Htlll bringing u good price , anil the Omaha
'
market'is holding Its own. The strike Is
seriously affecting the stock market.
"Tho most serious strike that lias been
Inaugurated for years Is now on between
the railway employes and the railway com
panies. It Is strange Indeed that at a time
wht'n everybody Is nnxlou.s for employ
ment and everybody else Is economizing nt
every point Unit 100.000 men , or any other
number , greater or less , should deliberately
quit work nnd tie up the business of the
entire country. This Is the situation , how
ever , and from the standpoint of trade It
IH deplorable. It hardly seems possible that
the strikers can succeed. The railway com
panies have no much nt stake In the matter
Hint they will waste a great deal of time
nnd money before they will yield. Mean
time business Is In danger of further
parnlyzatlon. Without , expressing sympathy
with cither party , I cannot help saying that
a more Inopportune time for precipitating a
financial disturbance such us this could
not bo found. It IH to be hoped that the
Htrlke may be amicably settled before the
week ends , though the hope Is not likely to
be realized.
"Uncoln , observing the good accomplished
In Omaha , Is organizing n commercial club ,
rtmt wide awake city Is developing a good
Jobbing trade , and the bankers there are
fully as enterprising us the wholesale mer
chants. This may account for the state
ment made to nn Omnha Jobber by one of
the Lincoln bankers Hint bis bnnk had In
creased Its country bank deposits J200.000
In the last four months. "
SNOW , cnimcii & uo.-is vii'.wa.
Labor Trouble * Aggravate Summer Dull-
nnft * Crop * l'r ml o U'oll.
Albert Andrlano , local superintendent for
Snow , Church & Co.'s mercantile agency ,
writes : "There Is little change In the con
dition of local trade for the week Just
ended. The summer season , with Its at
tendant dullness. Is now fairly upon us. A
fair share of the fortunate are oft for n
vacation , and there Is little doing In retail
circles. Crop reports Indicate a line condi
tion of affairs In the country , and the
weather has been most favorable to the
growing plants. Even wheat and oats are
showing up better than was expected. Job
bers report a fair quota of orders for fall
goods and give expression to n general feelIng -
Ing of confidence that September will usher
n a lively trading season. Collections are
"Otter than they have been for some time.
While affairs are In this hopeful condi
tion at home the same cannot be said of
the country nt large. The unsettled condi
tion of the tariff question , the continued
agitation among laboring classes and the
general feeling of unrest nnd dissatisfaction
which seems to hold sway certainly does
not betoken an altogether happy state of
affair : ) In other parts of the union. For
tunately. Nebraska has hitherto been
exempt from these disturbing elements that
have so materially Interfered with the re
vival of business In the east. And It Is
due mainly , I believe , to the fortunate In
dependence of this
great agricultural coun-
tr > that Nebraska and Omaha are today
ilJYia ntly "J a Silfr state tlla ca be
said to prevail elsewhere.
"The 1'ullman strike , which appears to be
one of the strongest attempts of organized
labor and which promises to be more far-
reaching In extent than any similar move-
I"B' of recent years , will undoubtedly
work great hardship on business In all
SJifi ° J \ ! c , country' The Pecuniary loss
will probably
be enormous. As yet Omaha
has not been affected , nnd shippers have
experienced , no delay In the transmission
of goods. The stoppage of freight trains on
.rweJern , ro'ad3 wl1' ' cu * short the supply
of California fruit , but beyond this there
seems to be little excuse for apprehension
on the part of local merchants.
It appears that the promoters of the
canal , the committee and commissioners
are having some trouble In getting to
gether. It was hardly to be expected that
the proposition would be put to the people
' . " tnoshnpe In which It was first offered.
A million dollars Is a very large sum of
money , nnd the county has n. right to exact
certain guarantees In return for such a
princely donation. It certainly seems that
the necessary conditions can bo formulated
In such a , manner as not to hamper the
stockholder. There seems to be a consensus
of opinion among leading business men and
property holders with regard to the' assur
ances and guarantees which should form
a part of the agreement. It is the opinion
with these men that a few well denned
propositions , backed by sufficient guaran
tees of good faith and such stipulations as
would assure the completion of the con
tract , is nil that Is needed to secure the
necessary vote for the bonds , iioth sides
must expect to make some concessions be
fore the proposition goes before the voters.
The importance of the project cannot be
underestimated ; a movement of this mag
nitude , energetically promulgated and car
ried to a successful Issue , means the firm
establishment of Omaha as the center of
enterprise and Industry In the great west. "

Weather conditions In the cheese producing
sections of the country have not been the best
either for cows or for cheese making. Heat and
flics have been uncomfortable features to strug

It takes consldcrablo more of It to make a

Increased slnco June C. While the Increase was
not peifectly uniform. It was gradually pro
gressing ; until on the ISth Ittook 1.32 pounds
more of milk to make a pound of cheese tlmn It
did on the Gill. This In Itself wijulJ make a

taken Into connection with the decreased yield
of milk It denotes quite a diminution In the

Ono of the Dullest Suturilityii on Heron ! In

NKW YORK , Juno 30. This was ono of
the dullest Saturday's on record nt the
Stock exchange , a ( act which will bo fully
realized when It Is known the total miles
were , but 2f > ,000 shares. The most nctlvo
stock was Sugar , In which the transactions
footed up but 4,000 shares , nnd the fluctua
tion therein wcru confined to a limit of %
per cent , the last snlo being at yesterday's
closing prtco. In the grangers the move
ment was nlso very 'slight. Uurllngton and
sl. Paul were the only shares which made
any special appearance In the trading and
both arc down V4 per cent on the day. Hock
Island Is unchanged and there was no deal-
Ing' fh Northwestern. Uubber Is down 1
per cent , St. Paul & Omaha % per cent and
Distilling absolutely featureless. Linseed oil
shows n gain of Hi per cent , Oregon Navigation
gation- per cent ; Pullman , V per cent and
New Knglund , V- per .cent , with an Improve
ment of , a smaller fraction In the rest of
the shares traded In. At the close the
market was fairly firm. The bond market
today was firm.
The Evening Post says : This was a Stock
exchange holiday In London. So far as the
tranxnctlon of business went It might ns
well have been a holiday here , for , In the
existing situation , and especially with nn
Intervening twenty-four hours In which
events may take a sudden turn In cither
direction , speculators are as disinclined to
touch the market as arc Investors.
The following are the closing quotations

The cattle market has been for the most
part dull and unsatisfactory the past week.
Receipts have not been at nil heavy , but
from a variety of reasons the demand 1ms
been confined largely , almost exclusively ,
to local dressed beef houses , and
as a result the heavier shipping and
export grades have been more or less
neglected , with prices dtscouraglngly low as
compared with the lighter cattle. Prices
showed comparatively llttlo change , how.
over , up to the latter part of the week ,
when , on account of light supplies , prices
firmed up a trlllc. The railroad strike ,
however , paralyzed the trade the p.ist day
or two and the market for HIP week closes
lOe to 15c lower than lost week on all ex
cept perhaps the handy fat grades that
just suit the killers.
UNDER THE STRIKE EMHARGO.
The market today was dull , dragging and
generally abouta , dime lower. Railroails re
fused to take castbound live stock on ac
count of the strike and sellers were prac
tically left to the tender mercies of local
killers , as shippers could do nothing. Own
ers could cither sell their stock to the
slaughterers or keep It It could not go on
through. Handy fat steers , on which there
was some competition , sold In many cases
at very nearly steady prices , but the heavier
grades were hard to move at any price.
Half fat and grassy stock was moved with
difficulty at prices from Gc to Ific lower than
yesterday. The market for grass cattle will
not Improve any from now on , as Texas Is
furnishing a class of stock that Is cheaper
and answers Just as well or better. TradIng -
Ing dragged along through the greater part
of the day and there wore a few cattle still
In first hands nt the close.
Cow stuff was In light supply and the
market showed no material change. Fat
dry fed cows and heifers sold readily at
good , firm prices , while the market for the
common and canning grades ruled dull at
low figures. Veal calves continue In good
request at fully steady prices , and the same
was true as to fat bulls , stags , etc. Com
mon rough stock ruled dull and weak.
As has been the case for two or three days
the bulk of the business In the stockcr ami
feeder line was done by yard traders. Prices
were firmly held at the recent advance , but
sales to the country were comparatively
limited. Sales today Included a lot of pretty
good Oregon stock at $3.40. Good to choice
feeders are quotable at $3.15 to $3.50. fair to
good at $2.80 to $3.10 and common to poor
at from $2.75 down.

HOGS FREELY MARKETED.
The arrivals of hogs this week show n
moderate decrease , something like 2,200
head , as compared with last week , and fall
fully 10,000 short of the uo.mo week last
year. Receipts for the month have been
comparatively heavy , heavier In fact than
for two years and a half , or tlnco Decem
ber , 1891. The total for the month was
217.G5S , and the increase so far this year
over last amounts to over 250,000 hogn. In
quality the hogs have averaged up fairly
well all week. There are lots of young
hogs coming , but most of them arc fat , or
at least In fair marketable condition.
The demand during the early part of the
week was good both for packing and ship
ping account , and trade ruled active with
prices ranging anywhere from stiong to u
quarter higher Until for the first half of the
previous week. During the latter half of
the week there was a big change. On ac
count of the railroad strike shippers and
speculators dropped out of the market , leav
ing the field to the packers. As a natural
result the market declined as rapidly ns It
had advanced , and closing prices ore fully
20c lower than a week ago. Aside from
the disturbing clement of the strike , how
ever , there Is a good undertone of strength
to the trade and an active general demand.
The market today wus & packers' market.
Receipts were comparatively light , less than
0,000 head , but the absence of shipping and
speculative buyers enabled packers to buy
the hnfis pretty much as they pleased , Open
ing bids worq ridiculously and unnecessarily
low and sellers refused to entertain them.
In consequence It was nearly 0 o'clock before -
fore dealers got down to n trading basin.
As there wan no outside demand little attun-
tlon was paid to weight , and fair to good
hogs , both heavy and light , sold early
largely ut $4.60 and $4.0.1 , or fully a dime
lower than Friday's average market , Under
the Influence of free buying and more favor
able reports from Chicago trade picked up
gradually , and closing sides , largely t $1.05
and $ t.70 , were not a great deal lower than
Friday. The trading was fairly brisk after
It once op ned , and the pens were clou rail
seme time beforp noon , the bulk of the sales
being at $1.09 and $4.03 , an compared with
$1.05 to $1.75 Friday and $1.80 to $1.85 ono
week ago today.

SHEEP SCARCER THAN EVER.
Light receipts of sheep during Juno are
the rule , but It seldom happens , as It did
this week , that sheep are received on only
ono of the six days. As these wcro largely
stackers the slaughterers have been a trifle
hard up for supplies. Dad markets east have
prevented any Improvement In the tone to
the trade , and prices are nominally little , If
tiny , better tlmn last week. I'alr to good
natives are quotable at $2.7G0'3.25 ; fair to

DEATH OF THE CHIMPANZEE.
Jlrs. Put Konnny Survived Her Mute but
foil Sl.urt Mimtln.
Mrs Hoonoy , widow of Pat Roonoy , waa 1
found dead In her cage In the Zoo carnlvorn 1
In Cincinnati last Monday. Consumption
carried her off , as It did her husband three
months ago. They were the finest chimpan
zees over In captivity , and were nil but
human. They ate at a table , sitting on
chairs nnd using dishes , knives and forks
and spoons like human beings , and ,
had often been declared the missIng -
Ing link. Slnco Pat's death Mrs.
Hoonoy has been melancholy and would
spend nearly all of her time gazing earnestly
at the stuffed form of her husband that
stood near by. A month ago consumption
developed , and all efforts to save her llf
were futile. Prof. Garner , who studied the
chimpanzee from a cage In the African for-
csta , visited Mrs. Hoonoy last week and de
clared she could not live long. Ho hod seen
Mr. and Mrs. Iluonoy some years ago , and
last week declared them the tlnest nnd most
Intelligent chimpanzees ho had ever seen.
Mrs. Hooney's remains .were dissected. Her
right lung was entirely gone , and her left
badly affected. Her skin will be mounted
and placed alongside the stuffed form of her
Into husband , The two chimpanzees lived
six years. There ore but two others now
In this country , they being In New York.

Mrs. A. Invccn , residing nt 720 Henry St. ,
Alton , III. , suffered with alotlc rheumatism
for over eight months. She doctored for It
nearly the whole of this time , uulng various
remedies recommended by friends , nnd was
treated by the physicians , ' hut recstvod no
relief. Slio then used one nnd a half bottles
of Chamberlain's Pain balm , which effected
a complete cure. This Is published at her
request , as she wants others similarly af
flicted to know what cured her , For sale by

A Thrifty .lunltiir.
The old Janitor of the Chicago Hoard at
Trade died the other day and loft to hla
heirs the snug estate of $100,000 , all of
which ho accumulated by thrift and
economy. Ho found u substantial nuurco of
revenue In the sweepings of the floor , In
which there was every day a considerable
portion of grain , This ho gathered tip and
sold to small dealers for chicken feud ,
Many plungers who were to him familiar
figures In thu "pit" often made muru money
In ono day than ho succeeded In ncraplng
together In thirty-nine years. Hut the old
Janitor saw scorcx of these grain gamblcra
reduced to penury , while ho passed his do-
dining years amid thu comforts of an nmplo
compctenco. it u men like thU ploddlna
Janitor who produce the vast bulk of the
world's wealth , although they make much

quick fortunes and , as a rule , dltilpate them
