ttluco Last Year.
While tlio weather Is not yet cold enough
to cause nny great stampede on the part ot
consumers to buy winter goods , the few cool
days , ot the past -week had a very beneficial
effect upon trade In general. The volume of
sales In both a retail and a wholesale way has
been somewhat enlarged and the feeling In
all trade circles Is decidedly better. Business
men are now free to ay that an early winter
would make business good In splto of all the
drawbacks In the shape of hard times and
short crops.
The retail Uado In boots and shoes , dry
goods and clothing , has shown the greatest
improvement during the past week nnd the
leading merchants representing those lines
appear lo bo much elated over the more
favorable turn In affairs. The Improvement
In the retail trade In these lines all over the
country , as well as In Omaha , has caused a
corresponding awakening In the wholesale
trade , which was already good In the lines
mentioned. This ls especially true of the dry
goods business , the Omaha jobbers represent
ing that line having done the largest Septem
ber business last month In the history ot tlie
houses.
The grocery business la reported as very
satisfactory In a Jobbing way , and the hartl-
\varo men have noted some Improvement
during the rust six days. Business In the
former Is limited largely to the sale of the
Htaplo tinea , white In the tatter Improvement
appears to be duo to the natural Increase In
the demand for seasonable ) goods , which was
Jo bo expected with the advent ot cooler
weather.
A grocery Jobber remarks that the removal
ot so many merchants from the drouth
fctrlcken districts of Nebraska Into Wyoming
nnd other western states Is demoralizing
trade In Ihoso sections of the country to some
extent. A Wyoming merchant was In Omaha
the other day Inquiring for cheaper goods ! to
compete with a Nebraska merchant that had
located In his town. Ho said that ho had
never handled anything but the very beat
goods , but the advent of a cheap stock of
goods In the town had started the cheap
craze and he was obliged to put In such
goods to hold his trade. The country west of
Nebraska has always been a liberal buyer of
the best staple- and fancy lines of groceries.
Collections In most sections of the territory
covered by Omaha jobbers have been fairly
( satisfactory during the past week , The fact
Is , most Jobbers are rather surprised that
collections should bo as good as they are
* hen the geperal conditions of the country
ore taken into consideration. A peculiarity
or collections In the west , especially In Ne
braska , and ono that a new-comer never
fnlls to notice , U that few merchants , however -
over good their credit , make any pretension
to pay a bill until they receive a dun In the
shape of a statement. Sometimes In the
rush nnd hurry of business a Jobber by some
means overlooks an account and falls to send'
n statement to the merchant , and In that way
bills have , sometimes run sixty days past due ,
and when at last discovered , and the country
merchant Is written to regarding the matter
the , Invariable reply la , "Why , you never
sent mo a statement. " If a Jobber were to
follow that policy In paying his bills In the
cast ho would soon find his credit sinking to
n very low ebb. The custom of not paying
n bill until a statement Is presented is not
recognized as "business" outside of a limited
area In the west , and the jobbers are trying
to break up the custom hero.
> IIUSINESS FAILURES ,
" " "According to the figures compiled by Drad-
Btrect's ' , the number of business failures In
Nebraska for the nine months of the pres
ent year was 191 , as against 303 for the
name period of 1893. The total liabilities for
the nlno months of 1894 were $1,973,073.
against $6,088,096 for 1S93. This U certainly
a remarkable decrease , and uould seem to
ba a sure Indication of substantial Improve
ment in. the business situation. The north
western states as a whole report 25 per
cent fewer failures this year than last , with
nearly 90 per cent less liabilities. Nebraska
Shows a heavier falling oft In the number of
failures than either Iowa or Minnesota.
The figures for the United States as a
whole are highly Interesting , as showing the
progress made toward recovery from the
panic of last year. There are 9,251 failures
. reported throughout the United States dur-
Inb the past nine- months , compared with 11-
110 In nlno months of last year , a decrease of
1,889 , or 17 per cent. While this shows
0. striking falling off In the commercial mor
tality rate , the total of 9.251 still remains ,
with the exception of tlio total for nine
months of 1893 , a larger aggregate number
of business failures in the United States
than In any preceding corresponding period ,
although In nlno months of 1891which , It
will bo recalled , Immediately followed the
disturbance In financial circles due to the
Daring crash , the next largest total of
business failures was recorded , 8,866. Other
years In which nlno months' total of busi
ness failures were conspicuously large were
In 1885 , with 8,423 ; In 18S9 , 8,334 , and In 18S4 ,
' 'a year of financial panic , when the aggre
gate reported was 8,302. Thus In the past
thirteen years the total number of busness
failures for nlno months equaled ST exceeded
8,000 In six years , though prior to the last
two years , during eleven years. In only four
* years.
The total amount of liabilities of falling
Individuals , flrms and corporations In the
Jiast nlno months Is $110,074,031 , a falling off
from the corresponding total last year of C6
per cent , The significance- this Is shown
M In that while only ono-thlrd of what they
were last year , they are less thnn in nlno
months of 1S91 , of 1SS4 and of 1883 , and only
slightly In excess of the grand total of liabil
ities reported In nlno months of 18S9.
The grand total of assets of falling Indi
viduals , firms and corporations during the
past nlno months amounts to $59,707,031 ,
about one-quarter what they were In the i
Ilka portion of last .
year , considerably smaller
than In nine months of 1891 , anil In nine I
months of 1881. The ratio ot assets to lia
bilities Is thus seen to have fallen off to
C4 per cent , as compared with 70 per cent
last year , which was an abnormal proportion.
In years when there Is no panic or disturb
ance in business the ratio ot assets to lia
bilities of tlioso failed has ranged * from 49
to Gl per cent , from which it may ba In
ferred considerable progress has been made
In the matter of regaining normal conditions
in commercial and Industrial circles.

Sir W. II , Hobcrsoii , manager for 11. G.
Dun Sc Co. In Omahn , speaking of trade
for the week , says :
"The boot nnd shoo dealers have ) been In
high clover. Their trade has been excep
tionally good , of a higher grade * than usual ,
and sevtr.il opening- stocks have marked tlio
week's business. In this connection It Is
Interesting- note the fnct that Omaha-
tnail boa's and shoes are p.netrat'ng- ' very |

ment of the last two or three yearn In this
direction Is nultc likely to stimulate turner
Investments In that line of manufacture.
"Contrary to the expectation In August ,

on Impression that 1891. when compared

"I hope 1 may be excused for raferrlns
to the political demonstration which was
made on Thurnlny nlKht nt the Coliseum.
Governor McKlnlev , with his national rep-
nt.itlon , drew Into that Immense auditorium
the largest gathering of people ever wit- .
nested in thin city. The governor stated
that It was the largest audience he had
ever addressed under a roof , nnd paid
Omaha the further compliment of saying
that there were but two other structures
In the union Inwhich so large a concourse
of people could be housed. One of these" Is
In Minneapolis * and the other Is In Camden ,

"From nn advertising standpoint , at least ,
the meeting- will do Omaha no harm , and It
Is gmtlfylnR- students of the economic
condition ? prevailing In the country to find
so pronounced an Interest In public ques
tions as was manifested by the attendance
of the people at the Coliseum. Whatever
may be the difference In views on the tariff
question , It is admitted that the agitation
of the subject and the legislation proposed
and tieiidlnK for so many months had its
effect upon trade. Whether the policy of
republican.1) Is correct from a business stand
point will probably be determined within
the next two years , ns It Is practically cer
tain that we shall live under the Wilson bill
during that period. It the conditions
throughout the country Improve and thu
prosperity formerly existing Is restored the
advocates of tariff reform will have their
vindication.
Retail trade has been rather better during
ing- the week , but Is still not what dealers
hope for. A cold snnE would do more to
ward stimulating buying than anything else ,
"At South Omaha cattle receipts have
been quite liberal , but the general market
has been rather weak. The receipts for the
year up to Friday were ns follows : Cattle.

SNOW , CIIUKCU & CO.'S VIBWS.
Some Peculiar Conditions I'rosentoil l > y the
I ncal Munition In Trnile.
Albert Andrlnno , local superintendent for
Snow , Church & Co.'s mercantile agency ,
writes : |
"The cold , snap during the early part of
the week had quite a perceptible effect on
retail business at Omaha , resulting In an
increased demand for fall goods in all lines
of business. In wholesale lines there is
little change in the situation. Dry goods
men report business very good , stating that
the first days ot this month have thus far
even exceeded the corresponding days of
September. It Is expected that business In
this line will show up very well for the
first half nnd fall off somewhat during the
latter putt of this month. The offer of the
Commercial club for free transportation
closes on the 15th ot October. Many mer
chants who opposed this move when llrst In
stituted now admit Its benefits. Boot and
shoe dealers also state that business has
been very good thus far this month , and
the same may be said of clothing manufac
turer * and grocers. In. furniture lines busi
ness Is only fair. In hats nnd caps It Is not
extrn good , and lumber dealers complain ot
poor business.
"As an Indication of the decrease In val-
uei. the statement Is made by a local house
to the effect that their shipments last month
In bulk of goods were far In excess of those
of tin ; larnust months since they began busi
ness , but that In amount of monsy tr'ey
fell somewhat short of the same period. In
dry goods u decrease In price av < racing "U
per cent Is a falrlv conservative estimate
In hardware lines , qlso , there has been n very
perceptible deciease in price , I'xtoudlni ' ; o\er
a period of years. Wire nails , for Instance ,
on. January I , 1590 , were quoted at $ J 25 ; In
January , 1S91 , at $2.75 ; in January , 1892 , at
J2.23 ; In ISIM at $1,70 , In 1851 at S1.45 , and 111
1895. at the present rate of reduillHi they
will probably sell at $1.35. This Is not at
tributable to the tariff , for the reductions
from this cause have not yet been put into
effect. The reductions have been caused
more directly by overproduction and the
gradual decrease in values of all descrip
tion ! ! .
"The Increase of business In some lines of
trade is easily accounted for , and yet It Is
a strange condition that presents Itself nt
this time. A , very good trade in tome lines
anil u very poor trade In others. There Is
no doubt that the failure of i reps In this
state has In a measure reverted to tne
beuellt of local jobbers. Many retailers ac
customed to purchasing their poods in the
eagtcin markets are , buying In Omaha. En
couraged by these conditions local Jobbers
have In some Instances vlgorojily piislied
trade and largely extended theU1 turltory.
Omaha dry Roods houses are now doing
business on quite a respectable ! < vV , ns far
west as the coast , "receiving 1'bcral orders
from Wnshlnfjton , Oregon , and other west
ern states.
"AffaliB In this country appear to be In
the best possible condition , as In many cases
merchants hn\e anticipated their bills , and
In most Instuncct ) have taken advantage
of the best discounts.
" 'This trade Is peculiar , ' said a leading
Jobber recently. 'Traveling Is more expen
sive , the distances from one point to an
other are greut , nnd It hardly pays to keep
a man In this territory all the time. "We
have worked our trade most successfully by
making an occasional trip through this ter
ritory , selling large bills and Helling gucds
right. Merchants In these states nre many
of them very wealthy und do an enor
mous business , others are abe ate y worth
less , Hy u lng * u little discrimination and
chos.slnff our customers , selling them richt
ar.d remaining satisfied with a small margin ,
we have built up a very satisfactory trade
In this territory , and lose very little on
bad accounts. '
"The complaint Is frequently heard that
It Is too expensive too , \ bu.slne.ss so far
from home , but the foregoing opinion shows
that there Is more than one way Inwhich
It can be done. If other jobbing towns havt
found tt profitable to do business In that ter
ritory , there Is na rca on why Omaha s'lould
not. As merchants hfere become cognizant
ot this fact nnd push business more lib
erally , their trade will Increase , and with ll
the Importance of Omaha as a jobbing cen
ter. Every traveling salesman who Invades
new territory advertises Omaha und Omaha
houses , and It only depends upon the man
ner invhlch trade Is handled us to how
greut will be the Influence of this city In
that territory ,

CHICAGO , Oct. 6. Trade was firm on
'change today , and firmness characterized the
principal speculative markets. Wheat gained
% c as the result of the day's business. Corn
rose lo per bu. for October delivery and HO
for May. Oats arc without change and pro
visions higher. Diminishing receipts helped
wheat , and the other markets sympathized.
The hogs Insist , upon being lerlouily consid
ered as an Important feature In the wheat
Clsi
situation this season , and It was because ot
their forcing themselves prominently Into
_
notlco that the market for that article Im
proved. Exports for wheat and ( lour , both
coasts , were likewise n supporting element
Cla
Cltl the start , but the hog matter v > as much
the more Important. A conservative estimate
based upon the figures supplied by the stock
yard firm which collected statistics upon the
feeding ot wheat to hogs suggested a possi
bility of 10,000,000 bu. per week being at
present used for that purpose , If the artlclo
Is l ! disappearing In the manner referred to , In
aCl few weeks at most the receipts will give
conclusive evidence of It , It was apparent
today that the holders thought the Indications
are already pointing In that direction. The
amount received at primary markets today ,
including Kansas City , amounted to 699,000
bu. , of which 510,000 bu. were at Minneapolis
and , Duluth. That leaves only 189,000 bu. as
the aggregate of all the other primary mar
ket receipts , Including Chicago's. The clear
ances from both coasts for the week were
3,430,000 bu. , compared with 2,562,000 bu. last
weok. \ The Minneapolis and Duluth receipts
lly carloads were S62 , compared with 280 a
year ago. The cables wereof various charac
ter. The Liverpool was quoted steady , but
Paris and Berlin lower ; a dispatch from an
exporter at Baltimore , however , reported
Antwerp and Germany asking otters of wheat.
Business In the pit was dull and the trading
without special feature. The general tone
was firm , and December closed at 54c and
May at 59 Uc. December opened at 53c and
fluctuated between those figures and Glc.
fla flt Corn received but moderate attention
tlon , the market ruling much less
active. The feeling was fairly firm ,
but there were only 88 cars In to
day 1 , and this created a steady opening , but
1r a little realizing by local longs , carried
prices down He , the trade being of the even-
Ing-up order , the prices afterwards advancing
% o lo % c , changed some , held Steady and
closed at t > Uic. There was a moderate call
for October , and It was generally held at
from % o to % c premium over Slay. May
was sold early by some larger shipping and
private wire concerns , but later the early
sellers turned buyers and steadied values.
The estimated arrivals for Monday were light
1t C5 cars , and these had a strengthening
tendency.
In oats but a very small amount ot stuff
changed hands , and with a very narrow range
of prices the market ruled dull throughout
the entire session. There was no disposition
to trade cither way. May started steady at
34c , sold off to 33c , and continued easier all
day until just previous to the close , when
34o was again paid , and the market rested at
that price.
Provisions started weak , but Immediately
began to gather strength nnd rose gradually
In sympathy without a great deal of business
passing , and closed at a fair advance In
prices. Hog receipts were 9,000 head , and
24,000 head are estimated for Monday. Com
pared with the closing prices of the day be
fore , pork Is 12Vic higher , lard 7He and rlba

a steady Improvement In , the grade of butter ar-

liaie been nlwut equal , nnd tlie mnrkct has
remained prnctlcnlly unchanged as regards prices.
Frcsli eggs liave been In much lighter receipt
Iho past week , but at the same time there has
been no scarcity owing to the number of cold
storage and salted eggs that arc bdnir thrown
upon the market. Whllo there was a tlrm feelIng -
Ing In the market for strictly fresh stock , on In or
to the lighter receipts , the amount of storage
eggs on the market hn * prevented any BUbstsui-

Although the receipts of poultry were lighter

old fowls declined , os will bo noted from th9
quotations. Receivers of old fowls have found
It dlfllcult to keep their itocfcH cleaned up. ThP

The past week has been about the hardest
since the range season opened. The last
week In September was full of promise for
cattlemen , and the result was a general rush
to market and n general depreciation In val
ues. Durlnc the early part of the week
trade was brisk , under a very good demand ,
and prices were fairly welt sustained. Thurs
day's record-breaking run ol 8,647 head was
followed by nearly 5,000 more on Friday , and
this , together with the reported BOc to 60c
decline In Chicago , caused the market to
break badly , Friday's closing prices on beet
steers being all of 25c to 40c lower than
Monday.
LIGHT KECEIPTS RESTORE PRICES.
Today's run was tlio lightest of the week
and enabled sellers to take a successful stand
against any further reduction In values.
As has been the case all week , receipts were
made up well nigh exclusively of low grade
western rangers. There- were no native beet
cattle hero of any description , and the few
desirable western beeves were readily picked
up by buyers nt prices steady to n shade
stronger than Friday. With the supply HO
light and the general quality so poor , In
telligent comparisons of prices wcro ex
tremely difficult. One thing was certain ,
buyers were not so Indifferent , and it was
possible to sell anything In tha beef steer
line at fair figures. Sales Included only fair
to pretty good 1,000 to 1,250-lb. western
steers at from $2,50 to $3.76. While It was
difficult to discover any quotable advance In
prices , there was a stronger , healthier tone
to the trade and the close of the week found
the pens practically cleared for the first
tlmo In the past six days.
CANNEKS AND STOCKEUS DO BETTER.
The market for cow stuff has followed
the steer market to n great degree. Fluctua
tions were not so greut , and prices were
better sustained , owing to good outside coin-
petition. Up to the close Friday , however ,
values In general had dropped all of 15c to
25c under the excessive offerings , but , cs
with steers , today's light run brought about
a reaction , nuyors wete all after supplies
and the market ruled active , with pi Ices
strong to 6c and lOc higher. The market
for veal calves has been active and firm
all week. Bulls , oxen and stags have met
with a fair demand , and prices are substan
tially the same as u week ago.
Notwithstanding the big receipts , the de
mand for stockers and feeders \\as suffi
ciently vigorous to absorb about everything
offered without any material reduction In
value up to Thursday. On Thurs
day and Friday , with the pens full , buyers
were enabled to make their purchases
cheaper , and prices shad d off lOo to 25c on
all grades. There was some slight Improve
ment today , but Saturday's feeder trade Is
never very extensive and never a fair cri
terion to go by. Better fall pasturage , how
ever , Is creating a good country demand
for stock cattle , and dealers are looking for
a .better trade next week. Oood to choice
feeders are quotable at $2.7003.15 ; fair to
good , $2.40@2.70 , and common grades from
f2l25 down.

HOO TRADE PRCUUAIt.
Tlio trade this week lias been simply a
epetltlon of last week's market. Packers
: ast are taking advantage of the liberal re
ceipts In Chicago to pound both hogs and
revisions. Values here have declined In
lympathy , notwithstanding the continued
unusually light receipts , and the hogs nre
oiling fully half a dollar lower than a fort
night ago , the ilecllno this week alone being
20c to 30c. Of the -
existing- situation the Cin
cinnati Pries Current says. "From Match 1
' .ho total packing In the \\cat Is 7,600.000
hogs " , as against 6,020,000 a year ago Increase
,580,000 , From tlio report of stocks of pro
visions now on hand In Chicago It Is evident
that the new season opening on November 1
will find the supply of meats smaller than
inual , and that prices at this tlmo would
' /tely bo decidedly higher but for the under-
blood effort to break , the prices of hogs , which
reflects unfavorably on the values of product
on hand made out of hogs at higher values
" current a few weeks ago , by which severe
"osses have been Incurred , Our correspond-
cnco Indicates that something ot swlno mal
ady la existing In various sections , but It does
tot appear to be- severe enough to disturb
calculations as to the supply available for
marketing during the winter months , which
may be expected to fully equal and probably
exceed the quantity last winter. "
The week closed with a very moderate run ,
the quality ot the offerings being- about as
poor as It has been any tlmo lately. There
was absolutely not ono choice load of hogs In
the yards , and a largo percentage of the ar
rivals were poor light stuff. The market
waS a packers' market , and prices averaged
Cc to lOo loner than Friday an nil grades.
They bought fair to good mixed hogs largely
at from $4.85 to 15.00. A couple of the best
heavy butcher weight loads brought $5.05 and
$5.10 , and the poor to fair light mixed and
rough loads sold at from J4.50 to $4.SO. Pigs
and stock hogs wcro not In very good de
mand , but several bunches changed hands at
around $2.7G to $3.75. The early market was
not very brisk , but trade Improved toward
the close , and the late sales ere the host.
Trading was largely at from | 4.85 to $5.00 , as
against $4,75 to fo.10 Friday. On last Satur
day the bulk or the hogs sold at from $5.20
to { 5.36.
