" / . * \ t V . t THE OMATIA DAILY BREv , SUNDAY , JULY 15 , 1801. CONDITION OF OMAHA'S ' TRADE 1 Business Buffers Serious > Embarras ment on r Account of Labor Troubles. MERCHANDISE TIED UP IN THE EAST I Inido In tlm Mute * Went of Nidirniikii Mlm- l proving Hlncn tlio Itnllronil Illockndo I WIIH Itiilncd IobbeM of I'rnlt I 11 iivy I.oncrn. I Trndo during the ast week has not been I In a very gratifying condition. There has I boon moro or less embarrassment , and In Ity most lines a positive loss of business owing I to the labor troubles , which have distracted I business and brought about a feeling of un- I certainty nnd Insecurity. The business In I western stntca llko Wyoming. Idaho nnd I Montana , which are heavy buyers In this I market , has l > ccn cut off nnd the Jobbing I trade of the city shows a shrinkage ns a re- B suit. Some of this trndo will bo regained | nnd In fact already urgent orders for goods W * nro being received from these states. I In Nebraska the volume of trade has not [ ' suffered no much , as there has been no se- [ rlous Interference with the transportation L lines , but still there has been some loss. I Salesmen who hnVo been out on the road re- I mark that It has been dldlcult to get n man's I mind away from the exciting news contained I In the dally papers long enough to sell' him I a bill of goods. The peoples' minds have I been called away from their business nnd I with the natural result that business has I suffered. There has also been a good deal [ of apprehension among n good many people I that the troubles would bo far moro serious I than they have yet proven to be , nnd In con- I sequence there has been a strong disposition I . to delay ordering goods until the outcome I of the strlko wns better known. All those ! Influences1 have been nt work to make the I past week unsatisfactory In n business way. I In addition to the loss of business the I jobbers have suffered some Inconvenience I from having goods ordered from the cast I tied up on the road. At the breaking out I of the strlko the Jobbing houses all had large I stocks In hand , nnd were well prepared to I underco a siege for some days , BO that I there has been no scarcity of goods , though I Bomo unimportant lines may have been cx- I hnustcd. From now on , however , there Is I likely to bo greater Inconvenience felt from I this source. Some of the goods ordered I , frotn the east have , without doubt , been dc- I strayed In the cars burned at Chicago , and I before the facts can bo learned nnd goods I ordered In their place some llttlo tlmo must I elapse , and supplies at this point may bo I worked down unusually close or even ex- I haustod In some lines. I Collections In the country are not quite I so brisk us they might bo , but Btlll they I tire about ns good as could bo expected under I the present conditions. At this season of I * the year there Is not , as a rule , any great I surplus of money In hands of the farmers , I and the Vetnll merchants are forced to carry I a good many of thorn. I The general situation In the country con- tlnues favorable. The crops nro generally I doing well , and there. Is promise of n good yield of corn upon which trade for this fall and winter Is dependent. I' PRICES HAVE DECLINED. I While the reports received from some I eastern markets Indicate that ono effect of I the railroad strikes has been to advance I the market on n good many lines of produce I no such results have been experienced here. I On the contrary , the cutting off of the east- I cm markets has caused n surplus of produce I at Omaha , and there has been accordingly I a decline on a number of lines. As , for example - ample , butter Is 2 cents lower than It was before the commencement of the labor troubles. Eggs have dropped down 1 cent In the past week , while poultry has only ' remained about steady. The hay market , though not qudtably lower , has- been very weak , and It Is with difficulty that dealers have been able to maintain prices. Pota- H toes , tomatoes and some other vegetables B have decreased In price. In the case If fruits the situation has been somewhat different. The railroad embargo In California cut oft supplies from that stitto upon which this market depends for the most part of Us fruit nt this season of the year. This market , however , was sup- piled for sonio days with fruit which had been shipped nut of California before the strike , but which did not get through In tlmo to reach Chicago until after the com- mcnccment of the strlko there , and had to bo brought back to this market and sold. I After the supply from thnt source was ex- I haustod the market hero became bare and § * has remained In that condition all llils week. I Prices on fruit would probably have ad- I vancod as a result of the strlko , but there I has been none here to test the market. The I market has had to depend entirely upon the I couth for supplies In this line , and Just nt | present there Is very llttlo coming from I that section. A few red plums nnd blackberries - berries with watermelons about exhausts the I list. list.Tho The wholesale fruit business has suffered I more , perhaps , than any other line of busl- nosu from the railroad blockade. The fruit I auction had Just been Introduced and had I proven very successful to an extent that the wholesale dealers In the lending cities west of the Mississippi river nnd as far south as St. Joseph were coining hero to 'buy ' their I fruit. The railroad embargo has put n ami- den stop to what was a very flourishing business. The fruit houses depend very largely upon the California fruit ' "business , and this should bo their harvest- , but In- Btcml they nro doing almost nothing for the want of something to buy nnd sell. An unfortunate - fortunate fcaturq of this business is that sales once lost cannot bo madeup , us la the case with a good many lines of the Jobbing trade. Should the trouble In California last much longer peaches , which form a very m largo proportion of the California fruit busl- ness , will bo about out of season. The closing down of all railroad business nt Chicago and the troubles nt other points loft the Omaha live stock market about the only ono In the country where business could bo carried on without Interference. A nreat many cattle nnd hogs were purchased ' hero for shipment to eastern points that have been accustomed to look to Chicago for their supplies. As the shipping of stock wns dependent entirely upon the railroad - road situation the shippers wcro barred out on some days , while on others they would all bo In a position to operate extensively. This has given Omaha a very uneven mar- Icot. On some days prices have advanced rapidly and everything has sold In short order , while tlm day following the market would go down Just as rapidly only to recover - cover again the day nflcr. Prices , however , were BUtllclcntly attractive to shippers to induce them to rush their stock In with the result that previous records of largo re- colpta wore broken In both cattle and hogs. 11AN1C CLEARINGS. I The reports of the clearing houses of 'n good many cities show nn Increase as com- parqd with the corresponding week of u year ago. This la not necessarily MI Ir.dlea- tlon of nny great Improvement in hutlncsa , lull that It Is now just about n year since the urcat drop In the v-ilumo of l > uslncs took place , and comparhons nro now long madn with a period when bii ; < iiiis ) was nl > ready depressed. Omaha has not yet boon fortunate enough to bo enrolled among the cities showlnc nn Increase , but during the past week there was n decrease of 17 per c.'tit. St. Paul suffered a decrease of 27 per cent , but most other cities In thin section of the country made a bettor showing. Minneapolis reported a decrease of only 1.5 per cent , St. Joseph 1 per cent , while Denver - ver shows a gain of 28 per cent , nnd Kansas City 7 per cent. AH IlN.Siis ) : : IT. I.oml Trndo Only Indirectly AfTeeted by tlio Indintrlat Uplu-iiMil. Mr. W. II , Robet-Kon , local manager of K. O. Dun & Co. , speaking of trade , nays : "U la a remarkable fact that. iilthoiiBh this country \vus tiluikru from center to clrcumferonco anil bus not yet entirely rn- ciovered from the strike. It affected trade In Omaha and Nebraska comparatively lit tle. Somu iinnoyiiuces were experienced by our jobbers trading along- two or three Ilne.s In Iowa , but the \vhole8ule Krocern found the Htrlko bringing them In a great nuni- lier of new orders. "Although wo arc In the habit of pnyliu ; that bislness wan paralyzed by the strike- mid tblH la figuratively ( rueas a matter Df fact the conditions In the country ut nre rather more favorable nftcr ten < lay of pnrnlynln thnn before. The foil- ure for the ; week arc nearly 100 lean than for the name period last yenr. The volume of trade wan , of course , tremendously tie- creased , | jut no Important failure linn oc curred , nnd the pro.-pect Is thnt the conn * Irs' will recover very rapidly. r'Thero nre two ways of looklns at this condition , both of which are correct , though neither is connected with the other. It shows that the people of America Imve en tire confidence In the stability of tbejr ROV- crnment. Men were nlnnncd , of course , nnd alarmists predicted n civil war , with all the evils incident thereto , but the people a't larRc knew thai the covcrnment was nil rlKht , nnd therefore no panic , even In the most conservative financial circles , was ob served. On the other band , the probabili ties nro thnt the reason why business was not more seriously affected by the unusual fVonts Is that the bottom lias been reached. Th business people who have not been hammered Into the earth Imve enduring qualities which enable them to weather anything , and the resources of the country have been , drawn upon to the last limit , so that II matters very little what happens ; things cannot be wtu-se. The natural con clusion of this rctuionlnK Is that they must Immediately become better , as neither America , nor Americans can stand still. They must KO cither one way or the other. The extreme of despondency and distress having been reached , we may now confi dently look for.ward to a moro or loss rapid recovery , though It Is hardly possible that entire confidence can be restored short of two years. "The uncertainty nurroiindlng the tariff legislation docs not so much affect Uuslness In the west as In the cast , but we have become so much In the habit of waiting for legislation thnt even the Interior hesi tates when nny measure Is before con gress which can directly or Indirectly nf- feet commercial conditions. At this mo ment It appears as If the bouse nnd senate were hopelessly apart on the tariff and that the settlement will not be reached by Au gust 1 , ns promlsd. This Is unfortunate , because trade Is waiting nnd Idle men nre not employed pending the results of this legislation. "The banks , with the caution that Is proverbial , have restricted their loans some what during the last few days , but money Is still plentiful , and gllt-cdgo security IH all that Is needed to get accommodations. In the wholesale trade It Is'an oft season In most lines , though conditions nro re ported favorabloi nnd all our dcplers arc quite hopeful nf nn active fall trade. Some complaint Is beard from sections of the state In regard to dry weather , but , gener- nlly .speaking , cbrn nnd buy arc growing nicely , and the outlook .for the state at largo Is quite satisfactory. "The first of the series' of home Industry banquets given by the 'Manufacturers and Consumers association at Nebraska City was an entire success. Hctweon 100 and 150 Omaha business men visited the oldest city In the state and engaged for a few hours' In social Intercourse with the merchants of that city. Nebraska CityIs a manufactur ing center. In proportion to Its population It has more factories nnd n better class of factories than any other city In Nebraska , and , what Is more , the factories located there , are nearly If not quite , all prospering. Some of the Ilgures presented to the ban queters were eye openers to the citizens of Omaha , who have generally supposed that high-priced coal would prevent exten sive manufacturing here. These banquets will accomplish a great deal of good by way of educating the public to give their patronage to Nebraska concerns. The mot to of the association Is one thnt should be adopted by all our citizens , nnd Is : 'West ern goods for western people. " "South Omaha has profited the past week on account of the strike. The cattle nnd hog shipments were heavy. On Wednesday the biggest day's receipts In the history of tho-yards was experienced , when lfi,8RG cat tle were received. The market , has Iluctu- unted a good deal , and prices have been considerably off from a. week ago. " . SNOW , CIIUIIOH & CO'S. VIEWS. I'roinlso of n Good Crop Still Holds Out ICiicouriigKinent for tlio I'lill Trndc. Albert Andrlano , local superintendent for Snow , Church & Co.'s mercantile agency , writes : "There was little activity In retail lines during the week Just passed , and little Is expected until the full season sets In. Coun try dealers feel very hopeful In anticipation of a decl.ded revival In the full. Corn pros pects nre good , and there Is every reason to suppose that trade will pick up toward the end pf August. This , of course , applies only to trade In the country , and w.lll hardly hold good with city dealers. Corn Is not harvested "untll.-lnto In" the season and Is moved stllMatcr. The effect of an abundant crop will , therefore , not make Itself ma terially felt with city retailers until the fall trade Is practically over , and It Is hardly to be expected that It will directly affect , business until early In the spring of ' 95. Farmers will buy liberally of country mer chants on the strength of nn nssurQd crop ; stocks nre low , and dealers will b'o com pelled to order In proportion. Fnll. _ orders are coming In fairly well , taking Into con sideration the general condition of affairs. It Is understood , however , that many or ders are held buck , and with a revival of business In the country merchants will mnku their requisitions during the."fhll sea son , ordering meantime from luuid to mouth , ns has been the practice heretofore. This method of buying will naturally Inure to the profit of local Jobbers , for thft'renson that dealers will be compelled to buy at the nearest market. Buyers are very care ful and conservative , nnd are not ordering any more than they absolutely need. Should business show no Indication or reviving In the fall retailers will not be overstocked to any great extent. If , however , business picks up they will be prepared to order whatever they want. This Is the view taken by most of the retailers. Jobbers , how ever , express the opinion that If there Is a large nnd decided revival of affairs there will be a shortage In many lines of staple nnd fancy goods. "The conservative system of buying pur sued by retailers also obtains with the whocsalers. Factories are not turning out more stuff than necessary ; with the In creased consumption Incident to nn Im proved condition of affairs It will not be surprising If Jobb.ars nro unable to supply the demands of retailers , for the reason 'that there will be a shortage of materials at the mills. For years the system of or dering far In .ndviince of the season lias been customary ; n/llls would start In manu facturing on orders of previous years' busi ness. In this manner jobbers and manufacturers - facturers combined In carrying a liberal stock In anticipation of the demands of retailers nnd consumers. Under the present system of light buying nil around nnd the uncertainty prevailing , an Increased con sumption would find the merchants of the country unprepared to meet the demands of the public , Willie conservative buying Is In every way Commendable , It might be well to caution retailers not to go to nn extreme In this illreetlon. While business. certainly looks dull now the prospects of a large corn crop will undoubtedly Increase trade , nnd It should be , .the purpose of every gooil business man to keep bis stock up tu the proper limit. "Collections are onlv fair. The next 'few months will be notable In thnt they mark the anniversary of the great depression which lias prevailed during the last twelve months. During these months last year ninny of the heavy debtors of local and eastern houses asked extensions , which nre now maturing. It seems that these obliga tions are being mot fairly well thus fur. The strike did not seem to directly affect trade In this part of the coil n try , but In an' Indirect way It bad a very perceptible In- lluence on the business of tlm week. The prevailing feeling of uncertainty had much lo do with creating a Blight but very no- tlcenblo dullness during the early part of the week. This la not strange , considering the fact that business In tlio large centers was practically at a standstill. Ituslness men are much Interested In the ultimate outcomn of this great strike. Sympathy for the strikers has' waned considerably since the reports of bloodshed and riot , resulting from the unlawful nets of the mobs. In this case It Is hardly a matter of uympnthy for one vide or the other. Ilualni-sa men rather express a feeling of alarm at the serious turn that affairs have taken nnd are unanimous In the opinion that the limi tation should be forcibly nnd unhesitatingly suppressed. The public , generally , Is not directly Interested In the light between Mr , I'ullimm and bis employes , nnd It Is alto gether wrong and unreasonable to make the business community suffer severe finan cial loss on account of a controversy of this sort. While the railroad managers as sert that the strlko Is over , labor leaders urn equally positive In their imsertlons that It IB not. What the probable otitcnmo will IIL If Bom * settlement Is not speedily made can be only it mutter of conjccturo. In the meanwhile perfeoly Innocent nml uninter ested business men nro made tn suffer se vere and Irredeemable loss , and the trade of the large centers In the country Is prac tically nt a xtnndKtlll. The tariff bill will probably uoon be passed and the adjourn ment of congress may then be expected to follow. "It Is to be deplored that at a time when these mutters so long pending nro about to find a solution , with a good crop In pros pect , nnd every other condition , local and general , In good shape for a revival of trade , an ugltutlon such as Is now going on with tlm labor elements nhould threaten to Interfere with the course of events.

The share specula tion was dull and uninteresting today , the sales of only one stock Sugnr exceed try ; 10 000 shares , and nno other Chicago Has being above 5,000 shares. During the first hour of business the trail I UK was generally strong In tone and higher figures were recorded. The approaching end of the strike Induces new Investments and caused n pro nounced movement to cover short contracts over Sunday. During ( he last hour of the morning the temper of the speculation wai heavy , owing to Bales to realize profits , many holders of stocks being desirous of getting out from the market , not knowing \vli.it the railroad situation may develop between now and Sunday , The early Improvement was" , however , only partially lost , and In a majority of cases the closing prices show an HiU.ince on the last figures of yesterday ranging from U to 2 % per cent. Pullman Dhows a decline of 1 per cent from the highest price of the day. Of the grangers , Itock Island Is up * 4 per cent- , nnd Northwestern % per cent ; Dtirllnglon Is "unchanged and St. Paul is down U per cent. Sugar fluctuated within a limit of 1'i per cent , receding % per cent , advanced Hi per cent , reacted 1 > per cent , and rallied % per cent. The changes In the rest of the list were merely fractional and the market closed fairly llrm. The bond market today was generally firm. The Post says ; Some belated speculators of a few days since for the short account made a tlnal effort today to close their ac counts , and the result was n further recovery In prices. The advances were not , however , regularly distributed. In St. Paul , for In stance , and In Sugar certlllcalcs , which are the short Interest , cither was not large or had made a particularly rapid and prompt retreat , there was little change or none. Hut Hock Island , Louisville and Chicago Ons were marks for continued buying , and even yesterday's sellers of Distilling certificates changed face on today's market.

MIS 3.U.7X 2,123 CATTLE The week closed with only nine teen fresh loads In the yards and about 1.000 head held over from Friday. It would hardly seem possible for the market to bo In a much moro imaatlsfactpry condition. The uncer tainty surrounding the labor situation np- peirs to have made every ono nfrahl to do business. Neither the shippers nor the local packers appear to want the cattle nt the prisent time and the market was very slow. even at easier prices. As has been the rule during the past few days , the light cattle were In the best request and they were about the only kind that would sell at nil. The heavy cattle were ncclcctcil and holders of such were In ninny cases unable to find n buyer. The trading In butchers' stock was very light and the market dull. The market on cows Is very low , especially on the grassy stuff. Stockers nnd feeders , wcro In light request and the amount of trading very limited. Very few country buyers have been In the yards during the week nnd there has not been much life to the trmlo on any day fur some llttlo time back. Representative sales : DUKSSKU HI-IKI- ' . No. Av.

The market opened slow and It was some lit tle tlmo before the buyers got down to busi ness , but In the end the pens were pretty well cleared. Nearly everything sold nt $4.70 to $1.75 , or Bo to lOc lower than yesterday. Very little difference was made In the price between light and heavy hogs and a range of Cc would cover nearly all the sales.

It Urnu-H In .Xrlr.-.ini Along \vltli nn Il liiinltmtrit Sapling , "Thoro are moro queer things to the aero In Arizona than In any other part of this wide land. " said Colonel Ilrncn Dion of llouck's Tank , Apache county , to the Now York Sun , "nnd , according to my Idea , and I know pretty near what queer things nrw , the queerest thing In all Arizona Is the trco ( hat has n temper worse than n blonde comic opera prlnin donna's , and gets Its dander up with just ns small provocation. They toll me out there that this true belongs to the coniferous species. It grows to bo some thing llko twcnty-flvo feet high , and then stops. Its leaves nro long , slender and pointed , llko porcupine quills , When this tree Is In n good humor these leaves lie close to the branches , nnd It spreads n pleasant aromatic odor all nround. Hut when It Is angry every lent on the tree rises up on end , and the nspect of that particular piece of timber Is about as fierce and threatening ns anything you would care to look nt. The pleasant resinous odor the tree sent forth In Its peaceful mood gives place to an odor that will put wings on your feet to place ns much distance as you can between the of- fenslvo tree and yourself. "This tree Is especially touchy on the sub ject of dogs , and the coming of n canlna anywhere near It will Instantly make It furious. Yet a wolf , n grizzly bear or n mountain lion 'novor rullles the temper of this tree If tliosu unlmuls do not presume on too great familiarity with It. They may llo nround It ns > long ns they care to , but If ono of them so far forgets Itself as to rub or scratch the trunk of the tree , the hot-tempered thing will fly Into ono of Its tantrums Instantly , and the way Mr. Hear , Wolf or Lion will make himself scarce In those parts Is a whole circus to see. Noth ing will work this tree up to concert pitch , though , BO quick nnd effectually as throw ing BtoncB nt It. Thou It will actually rip and tear , nnd no living thing would think of going within gunshot of It. Some folks out at Houek'H Tank call this trco the porcupine trco , and some say Its right name Is skunk trco. I call It the holy terror trco. Hut no matter what you call It , It Is a queer Job of nature , and Arizona claims It ns her own. "Whllo this trco Is the only real , gc'nutnc Governor Wnlto sort of a vegetable kingdom crank we've got In Ar'zona. wo point with some more pride to another tree that only Arlzqnn soil ha talent to produce. Tills ono Is the electric tree. This tree Is not ns abundant ns the holy terror tree , and Is a dwarf , seldom having the courage to get moro than twelve feet high. Its foliage Is very deiue , and nt night It gleams like an arc light. The 1'ght that chinos from this tree U so" strong that .one may sit twcnty- flvo feet away and read line print. The queerest point of this tree Is that Its light begins to grow dim with the coming of the now moon , nnd steadily loses brilliancy until the moon Is full. Then the tree Is as dark ns a mine. When the moon begins to wane the tree's luminosity li gradually re newed , and by the tlmo the moon has dis appeared the tree Is shining again as brightly us ever. Sometimes the light on this queer tree becomes faint even In the dark of the moon. Then we have1 to do n queer thing to restore It. We'drerich It with a bucket ful cr two of water , and Instantly the efful gent glow will return In all Its brilliancy. " Omaha's popular resort Courtla'nd Bench. PRECOCITY AT THE HUB. A Two-Yrn'r-OlU Itostonlnn Wlm Smokes mill C'liim-H Tolmrvo mill IIuntH "Snipes. " When a 2yearold boy can take down his father's old clay pipe and smoke It , can inhale the fumes of n cigar I ette without a sneeze , pull nt a cigar by way of a change , and chew tobacco like gum , ho must bo reckoned a rather preco cious Infant , says the Boston Qlobo. George Ernest Noycs , the 214- year-old child of E. C. Noyes of ' 2(10 ( Med- fnrd vstreet , Charlestown , has Just this amount and kind of precocity. The baby's passion for tobacco Is n well developed ono for whenever he Is asked what ho wants any one to give him , he Invariably replies a cigarette or a cigar. A few days ago he surprised the patrolman on the beat near his homo by leaning up against the side of the building , smoking u remnant of n cigar , and saying with a grin ns the patrolman went by "I got cr but. " Ills mother Is unable to account for the passion for tobacco , ns she says they did not teach him , but ho seemed to take to It naturally , for before ho was 2 years old , when his father used to hold him on his knee , he would grasp for the old cob pipe which his father was smoklnc. When he saw the plpo placed on the mantel ho would cllinli upon u chair to roach It. Ono evening. while/ the father was smolr- IiiE and the chljd was doing Jila level .best . lo take the plpo from , his mouth , he con- clmlPtl to lot him have It to sco what ho would do with U. The baby astonished the family by putting the plpo in hla mouth , exactly as ho had seen his father do , and purr with great satisfaction. Ho cried when It was taken away from him. After thiit for awhile the baby was such a curiosity that 'his elder brother kept trying him 'to see what ho- would do nnd. to find out If they could not make him sick. They gave him cigarettes nnd cigars , which ho smoked BO readily and with such enjoyment that now' they cannot keep him from smoking. A Cnro for Clironln Diarrhoea. I had been troubled with chronic diar rhoea for over a year when I received a small botlo of Chamberlain's Colic , Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy , which I used nnd It gave mo great relief. I then procured a CO-ccnt bottle and took ubout two-thirds of It , nnd was cured. I have tnknn some twice since when I had n IOOMICSS come on and It btoppcd It nt once. I hope It will help others ns It helped mo. I feel very thankful to Mr. Stcurns , the druggist , for telling ma of this remedy nnd shall bo glad to have this letter published , S. G. Weeks , Molroso.

For n Jong tlmo this mule and a swagger young bull havn lived on a farm' of the Benedictine monks beyond Covlngton. When the brothers rose yesterday there wus mi unearthly sound In the pasture lot below the monastery. It was the mule and the bull fighting. The blood ran In streams from the bull's nosu and mouth. The mule was unhurt. Ho was moving on n pivot , with his heels ever toward the big , angry brute on the circumference of the olrclo trodden In the grns't. Suddenly , with lowered hoail nnd n bellow like thunder , the bull ruahcd nt the mule/ There was n flash of steel , a thud , and the bull wns on his knues , tlio mule was on the kick. Tlmo nnd again the bull went down before the inulo'H lightning foot , Once morq he made a rush , then retired , ueciiilngly beaten. The mule looked about , shook himself mid begun to cat grass. The first tlmo hla cyr.i had loft the bull Ilio latter saw hla chance- . When ho had finished with the mule tliro wus scarcely enough left to bury. One of the monks said ho wns u fool , llko other mules ; then they killed the bull to put him out of his in leery. * i Sea the animals nt Courtluml Iteach.
