The jobbing trade of Omaha has experi enced a substantial Improvement , In certain linen at least , during Ihe past week , A good many country merchants have been In the city , nnd , while they have not placed orders with tlio old-time liberality , they have bought enough to cause a substantial In crease In the volume of sales , As a matter of fact , their purchases have been limited very largely to such goods as arc regarded as absolute necessities In the country. Thus , the dry goods people have been kept very busy , nnd the jobbers of boots and shoes , groceries , etc. , have enjoyed a very good buslncaj. The dry poods people , especially , have bceon rushed -with orders , and they are ship ping fully as many goods as they ever shipped nt this season , oven In the most prosperous years. This Is due In part to the fact that they have bean very successful In opening up now territory In the states west of Nebraska , where there appcara to bo at the present time a very Inviting field. Another reason for the largo volume of bus iness doing In this particular line Is to bo found in the tact that a great many of the heaviest retail houses In Iho country that have been accustomed to buy in the east cancelled their orders when It became known that there was going lo bo a failure ot crops , and aru now buying their goods in Omaha , It being too late to get them in Ihe east In time to supply the demands of their trade. The saino IntluencEU arc no doubt contrib uting toward making business more active In other lines as well. It has nlwa'ys been the case , especially wilh Ihe dry goods houses of Ibis clly. lhal a failure ot tlio corn crop places them In a better position. It brings them new cus tomers that could hardly be weaned away from the eastern Jobbers In any oilier way Afler the failure" ot Ihe crop In 18 0 a greal many merchants In this slata who had al ways purchased In the cast , and whom ni arguments or Inducements In the way especial special bargains In goods could move , sud denly found It convenient to transfer their accounts to Omaha jobbers. The movement in this direction was no doubt stimulated in some .dcgrco by the undue haste ot eastern - ern jobbers In pouncing down upon their creditors anil closing them up at the least shadow of an excuse. Many patrons of east ern Jobbing bouses were closed up In this way and forced out ot business , while their compelllors who happened to be buying In Omaha were carried over the hard times and arc still In business. The now customers gained by the Omaha Jobbers In 18DO and 1891 have In most cases remained with the houses , having found that It was not only more convenient to buy nearer home , but that they could do fully as well In Iho matter of prices ns in the east. New customers ore now coming In faster than ever before , and Ihere Is every reason for expecting that they , too. will become regular customers of Omaha. In liioso sections of the state where the crops were almost a total failure business IB very dull , but the Jobbers are trying to inako up for the loss of business In this direction by acquiring new trade in Oregon Washington and other western states. Ther has been n little more life mani fested In some lines In which Ihere was nol much reason for expccllng any material Improvement. whlc.h would seem to I ml teat that , the public lias como to Ihe conclusion , that the whole country Is not going to smasl Just yet and that the people are going to live and cat and wear clothing Just as they liavt done In the past. There are , however , good many lines In which business inusl necessarily remain quiet for some time , as there are many articles which enter more 01 less directly Into Ihe caring for and hand ling of farm crops. The Jobbers have been very sanguine tha' there would nol be any such great dcpres slon In business aa followed Ihe parllal fall lire ot corn In this stale In 1S90 , becausi stocks ot all itlnds of goods are now verj lowIn all parts of the country , and If then Is any sale for goods at all the merchant will bo forced to come to Ihe Jobbers fo Ihem. At that time all Ihe merchanls hai largo stocks on Ihclr shelves , and Ihe stopped buying almost entirely until nn other crop was grown. nri Al South Omaha there has been a con slderable falling off In the arrivals ot cattl and hogs as compared with the prcvlou week , but n heavy gain In the receipts o sheep. The market has been In pretty goo shape all the week. Dcef steers , owing t the light offerings , have remained full steady In the faceof a heavy decline nether other markcls. Callle men are looking fo a heavier run of cattle next week , as the claim thai range caltle. which have bee held back on account of there being plent of feed on the ranges , must commence arrive more freely In the future. Butcher stock , such as cows , heifers , etc. , have bee in good demand all the week , and th& mm kcl has advanced about 25 cenls over th prices prevailing a week ago. Stock call have bsn gradually advancing , and Hi belter grades are fully 2G cents higher lha Ihey were last week , whllo Ihe commo grades have experienced a 15 cent ndvano The demand for all kinds of catlle has bee In excess of Ihe offerings on most days the week , and the market upon the who has been In a condition lliat could not hcl but bo satisfactory to the selling interest While Ihe market on hogs closed the wee with a decline , llio market was even hlglu than at the close of the previous week , that n gain has been made during- the pa I six days In the matter of prices. Tl ' drouth Is making itself felt In a gradual decreased supply of hogs. Tims far th month Ihcro has been a falling oft In U rec.-lpts. amounting to 05,000 as compart with last month. The packers who have English cuts placs on the market ara doing a good bu Iness. The demand for American produc abroad Is Increasing rapidly , and has a tmined proportions , that will bo a surprl to many who have not kept close watch the growth of the business. Fortunately South Omaha packers are In position lo take care of a portion of Ih Irade nt least , nnd no small amount of fo elgn money finds Us way back lo Ncbrasl In exchange for hog producls.

That the Improved tone of trade In the country nt lnr ; e Is having n beneficial effect on the business of Omaha nnd other western tradltm iralnts more or less affected by unfavorable local conditions , hardly admits of a doubt. As n matter of fact , business nt Omuhsi 1st at present on n much better basis than n year apo. Trade Is iirlnclpally confined to staple lines as a result of n scarcity uf funds und a disincli nation to spend money for luxuries , still noticeable with all classes. Hut the feellliff of uncertainty nnd doubt , which was such a dlscouriiKlntf feature of the situation last year nt this time , lias nlmost entirely dls- appean-d. I tot nil trade Is Improving sllffht- ly. In wholesale lines business for the month nt the present ratio will show n Imnd.oume Increase over September of last year , As I stated lust -week , the Improve ment Is most decided In dry noods. groceries nnd In staple lines generally. Kven hard ware men are receiving1 a Bllichlly Increased number of orders , nnd furniture dealers report pome considerable Improvement. Hoot ami shoe merchants are agreeably sur prised at the showing of this month's busi ness up to the present dale. There Is still very little demnml for luxuries , but this Is to be expected until the general revival has completely reassured the people and has been fortlll d by the Incrcns dcarn'ng capac ity of nil classes , which Is one uf the main hidlrntions of good times and the worst condition of n. depressed slate of affairs. The crop failure In this part of the country Is a condition of the past , the results of which confront us now , and will affect the business of this state for the next twelve "This' being an established fact. It Is the duty of every citizen o the state to over- conn- this unfavorable factor as far as possible. AM I stated In last week's re port , several counties In the state have al ready \oted Irrigation lo : d ? , ihus turn shins employment for the winter and Insuring the expenditure of sufficient sums of money to bridge over nnd to a large extent over come the results of the crop failure. "Oinnliu Itself has much work of this nature before It. The Finite canal project should be pushed to a successful consum mation. Confidence In the east Is sulll- clently well restored to create a dcHlro to Invest Idle capital In paying enterprises. Omaha and Nebraska prcsenls one of Ihe most promising fields of this description. Values hnvc been depressed to such an ex tent that valuable property , bolh of Ihe clly and In agricultural lands , can now be bought ol figures * for which they have not sold for a number of years , and at prices that will probably never obtain ng-aln , This Is owing solely to the general decrease In values Incident to the panic , and prices are already becoming firmer , with every In dication of an upward tendency. "The consummation of a project such as the Pintle canal would give such nn Im pression of confidence and enterprise as to invite the attention of foreign investors , resulting In an Inflow of capital such as would materially benefit the trade of this city In every line and of every class. The canal proposition should , however , not be brought before the voters as n. mere boom scheme , but as a legitimate enterprise care fully Investigated , the ultimate success of which Is as nearly assurd ns a thorough study of the subject will permit. II Is not necessarily this proposition , which I merely cite as n case In point , but the general ne cessity for some active effort which I de sire to bring forth. The main Important features In the case are these : Employ , ment for the laboring classes nnd the prollt to mercantile lines Incident to the same. Some expedient to reinforce the resources of the state , which have suffered more or less extensively , and the Importance of nn active effort to direct some of the eastern E money , which with the , restoration of con fidence will naturally seek 'some Held for : Investment , Into Nebraska , channels. "The failure of the crop this year leaves this community with a , dearth of market able prod not.

Corn was heavy today on large receipts and wheat meekly followed. They both ran down another % c. Provisions were smashed by the virile blows of the heavy packers , pork closing at a decline of 27 ! c , lard 20c and ribs IGc. Tlio o.its market followed Its own bent and closed Vta higher than yesterday. Wheat opened very weak. Dscember , which closed yesterday at 5Gc , and which was the bottom of a $ ic decline , sold a mo- meat after the start this morning at GGc. The corn market was suffering from what the speculators chose to regard as very heavy receipts of that article , and the north west reported a considerable Increase In the number of carloads of wheat at Minneapolis and Duluth. Those were the Influences which Inaugurated UIL- weakness In wheal here. The cables relumed reflections' ot the weakness which prevailed here yesterday. Business was of moderate activity. A good deal ot scalping long knives came out al the opening , and the chief support after that appeared to come from buying against "puts" and covering by shorts. The fluc- tuallons kepi virtually within the range of 56c and BCVSc. Exports ot wheat and flour from the Atlantic seaboard for twenty-four hours amounted to the equivalent of 40,000 bu. Primary market receipts. Including those at Kansas City , amounted to 900,000 bu. The estimate that today's liberal ro celpts of corn would lie repeated on Monday and rumors that the receipts of wheat at Minneapolis were likely to be 1,200 cars on the same day , prevented nny change In the heavy feeling which lias prevailed all day. The price was kept bumping on 56c for De cember not far from the close , and finally rested at BGc to 50Vie. Corn was. weak earl } ' , heavy all day , and limp at the close. It did not , however , sell lower at any time than It did Immed iately at the opening. Receipts of GOO car * this morning exceeded the estimates by fifty cars , and the prediction that on Monday another GOO cars would be found on the Inspection sheet added to the selling in clinations evinced by the local speculators. A good deal ot long corn came on the mar ket and shorts gathered It In. May opened at from 62&c to 53c. recovered to from G3Vlo lo G3c , broke oft to G3c"rose to from 53'/4c to , C3c , tumbled back again to G3c , and closed at 53c bid. Oats were quiet throughout the entire ses sion. A firmer feeling was noticeable , In fluenced by a better disposition to buy. Sep tember ranged from 30',4o bid to 30c , clos ing nt 30c bid. May started at from 35c to 354c. sold up to 3Gc , and closed at from 35ic to 35T c. The receipts ot hogs at the yards were only 9,000 , but the quality was reported to be poor and the price from lOc to IGc lower than on the day before. The weakness In corn and wheat gave additional encour agement , anil the packers did the rest. The leading futures ranged as follows : Articles. | Open. | ] | igh Lo - . | Close.

This view of the situation wns strengthened by the Rood buy I n , ' at the decline , on which the early losses were recoveml and a Ralti of Vi per cent effected on the clay. The stc-clc closed stroiiR within W per cent of the highest point touched. Sugar lluctimteil within a range of % per cent.

In fact , on many days there have hardly bean cnounh on the market to establish prlcJs , Today there was nothing good , though a bail ot fair .westerns brought SI.25 , anil some lighter cattle $4.10 that were also westerns. The packers are looking for a large run of western beeves the coming week. The maruet on cows and mixed stock was about steady today , but It has been gradu ally climbing up during the week under the Influence of nn active demand In the face of moderate offerings. ToJay as high as $ J.25 was touched for cows , bill fair to good cows sold largely at $1.90 to $2.10. There was about the usual nulet Saturday a business done In the alocker and feeder mar ket. The demand , however , was fully up to tlio supply , and prices Ktroiig. There has been a good deal of activity In this branch ot the cattle trade during the past week , and the market has made a rapid advancj , amounting to about 25e on tlio bailer gradts ot feeders and about Ific on light stock cat tle.
