Throughout the past week the weather
was aulto mild for November and It was
not until near the close of the week that
the thermometer dropped down to a point
sufficiently low to stimulate business to nnj
great degree. Ai a result , the retail trade
of the country tributary to this market wns
only fair during the early portion of Uie
week and whatever altcctH the retail trade
la certain to bo reflected In the demand
for goods In a wholesale way. At the game
time , the Jobbing trade ho8 been Invery
fair shape all the week , owing , no doubt , to
the fact that a good deal of business was
held liack and delayed by the excitement of
the elections.
Some jobbing houses report a much better
trade than they hod anticipated. Thus , the
grocery Jobbers have been very busy filling
orders , nnd most of the houses engaged In
that line have had about all that they could
< lo to keep even with the demands of the r
customers. The fact that business In this
line is holding up FO well ha-j been a sur
prise to the Jobbers themselves
In the line of dry goods there has not
been enough cold weather yet to cause u
break In the stocks of retail dealers and
sorting up orders have not set In as yet
to any extent. Tor that reason trade n
the dry goods line Is only fair , but It Is In
excess of lust year at this season. There
luivc been so many new customers booked
liy the Omaha dry goods houses that the
volume of trade runs way uhcad of pre-
In the line of hardware the Jobbers report
nn Improvement In the volume of business
Blnce the election , owing , apparently , to the
fact that consumers and retail merchants
hove gotten down to business once more , nnd
nre doing more buying and selling nnd less
o In toots and shoes la very fair for
the season ami the same thing might be
said of all lines of seasonable goods.
As the holidays approach the Jobbers of
holiday goods , toys , etc. , report an Increas
ing business , nnd there Is every prospect
that the volume of trade In thla line will
be In excess of any previous year , owing to
the large number of new customers that are
coming to Omaha.
During the past six days there 1ms he-en
an Increase In the bank clearings of this city ,
Amounting to J 5 per cent. While this gain
Is not as large as many would like to see
nnd falls short of the showing made b >
some cities. It Is In excess of the average
gain for the whole country , which amounted
to only 1 2 per cent. If the clearings are
any Indication of business condltllons they
would seem to Indicate that trade In this
city Is slowly recovering from the depression
of thepist year or more. While the recov
ery la not rapid , the fact that there Is a
steady Improvement Is taken as a good Indi
cation.

II. Warren Patch of Hoston. secretary of
the National League of Commission Men ,
has written a letter to the Omaha members
of the organization that great preparations
nro being made for a national mcetlntr of
the commission men to b3 held In NCA Ytrx
City January 3. The cominl"ston men of the
country have formed themselves Into n
very strong organization for the promotion
of fair and honest dealing. The character
of the produce commission business Is such
tlmt It Is a very easy matter for unscrupu
lous parties to go Into the business for the
sole purpose of defrauding the shippers of
produce. Every year , In almost every city ,
llrms are organized , nnd , after extensive ml-
7CitUn | ( ; by minus of high quatatlo s , will h
bring In n ilood of shipments from the coun
try , they go out of business. Indebted hun
dreds or thousands of dollars to the coun
try. Bo common has this practice become
that the responsible commission houses felt
that something must be done to protect the
honor of the business , nnd they formed a
national league , the membership of which
Is limited to llrms that arc known to be
reliable. If at any time any member of the
league Is detected In defrauding customers
they nro expelled from the league. In this
way shippers In the country are protected
ugalnst fraudulent concerns.
In January the league will hold Its second
end annual meeting , and so well has tne
plan worked that the commission men are
enthusiastic over It. Mr. Patch writes that
at the annual meeting held In Cincinnati
one member of every firm wna a candidate
for delegate to the national convention. In
Omaha there Is a good membership and this
city will be represented In the New Yoru
meeting.
The New York Commercial Bulletin says
that preparations me being made by the
rnotnbers In that city to entertain the vis
itors and adds :
The league Is composed of eli-ven local
branch organlz t'ons , one each being In Nev-
York , Philadelphia , Boston , Baltimore. Chi
cago. Buffalo , Cleveland , Cincinnati. St.
Louis. Omaha and Louisville. There will be
llvo delegate * sent to the convention from
each branch , nnd It Is expected that nearlj
200 of the most prominent wholesale fruit
merchants from all parts of the country will
be present. The National League of Com
mission Merchants was orgnnl/ed to protect
shippers of fruit and produce against Irre-
sponslh'e ' men , who manage to secure con
signments of fruit and disappear with the
proceeds of Its disposal. Its members repre
sent nn aggregate capital of about J10.COO.tWO
nnd handle the greater part of the fruit ami
produce marketed In the eleven , cities men
tioned.

Hotline * * Dull In Most I.lnei , but Still full
of I'rnmlftc.
Mr. W. II. Iloberson , manager of R. G.
Dun & Co. for Omtilio , says :
"This week hns been a lifeless one In
Omaha Jobbing circles , nnd trade at the re
tail stores has been slow. Dealers charge
present conditions to the weather , perhaps
because they cannot charge them to an > -
thlng else. Aside from the hardware trade ,
\Yholesalera of staple lines icpoit a quiet
week. Dealers in Christmas novelties and
holiday roods npor quite an cc Ive demand
but all orders are urn-ill. A country mer
chant In town the other day , buying $50 to
J100 worth of holiday goods , apologized and
stated that he never before thought of pur
chasing less than $300 to JHX ) worth. Whole
sale Jewelry trade Is rather better than
usual on account of the near npproacii
of the holidays , but the retailers In this
line loudly complain.
"Omaha continues , however , to draw new
traders. The depression of trade generally
sends buyers to the nearest market and con
sequently new faces are seen In this market
every day. A merchant from Otoo county
who never camn to Omaha until last year
stated to a Jobber that hereafter he would
tnake buying trips regularly once a month
He will buv less at a time , keep his stock
assorted more satisfactorily , and , at the end
° ' " ? . * liavw little or no unsalable mer
chandise. He Bajs by this course he car
rnake more money on the same aggregate
of sales nnd handle his business to a bettei
advantage In every way. Other merchants

Albert Audrlano , local superintendent fo
qnow. Church & GO.'S mercantile agency
writes :
"The colder weuthei bus materially Irn

"It In a little early to give n forecast of
what the coming > ear will bring , but there

very marked revival. Despite adverse cir
cumstances , trade hna been gradually tin-
proving throughout the countn until ft hns
reached normal conditions , and real activity
Is only Impeded by local circumstances. The
hopeless state of uncertainty hns given
place to well defined stability , and somp
sections of the country are enjoying unusual
prosperity. It Is therefore no longer a ques
tion of general confidence , but of local pros

gradual Improvement of affairs , dependent ,
of course , on favorable crop conditions.
"In making1 this forecast the fuel should
be considered that the recent failure of
crops was unu ual In the extreme , nnd that
there Is every reason to hope for nn nbun-

CHICAGO , Nov. 17. The preponderance of
evidence was on the bull Bide today and
May closed He higher. Strength abroad
vvns the feature , and there was j > lenly of
bullish news , or news In addition to help
the holders' side of the market. Corn vvns
heavy , closing unchanged for May , and
lay oats nnlihed 14o higher. Provisions
guild up with fair gains.
The strength of the foreign advices gave
he tone to the wheat market. An advance
vlth which the session was Inaugurated on
he strong cables was checked for a short
me by receipt * of 914 rar loads of wheat ,
omparod with CG6 a year ago , at Mlnneap-
lla nnd Duluth. The market recovered all It
ad lost and rose Blowly but surely to the

ig touched Glic n minute or two before

Ing above the first prices. New York sent

iort business. Koom for tvventj : boat loads
or shipment to Liverpool was taken today

alien for export at other seaboard cities ,
"lour shipments were heavy , engagements
avlng been made for Dl.OOO sacks for Am
terdam. Bullish dispatches which rung the
hanges upon all that could help the price
vere plentiful ,
The receipts of corn were heavLuby 80
jar loads than yesterday's estlmuTes. and
KH ) cars are estimated for Monday. Theie
ncreased recelptB nnd pressure of corn , both
in spot nnd to arrive , caused the markets
o rule weak , but a decline was saved In
.he end by the bullishness of the wheat
market. May opened at fiom 41c to I3&c ,
declined to from 49o to 49c , advanced
near the close to We , and rested at from
9'4c to DOc.
A very good business was transacted In

The consequences were a firmer feeling and
jllghtly higher prices. The principal buyers
ivere elevator people. May started a trifle
.ower than It closed yesterday , at 32Ho , sold
up to S2c , down to 32l4c to 32 % , up again
to 3.O4c , and closed with sellers at that

Provisions were firm and higher , showing

The excessive cattle receipts caused n
caher feeling during the fore pirt of the
vcek , and for the first throe dnjs there
vas a steady decline In values. There vvns
good enough demand , nnd anything fat
ough to suit the dressed beef men or good
nough for shippers to take met with a
endy Kale , and prices were llrtnly held us n
tile There vvns so much more of the me-
turn nnd poor stuff. low gride western
angers and short fed natives , that buyers
ad no dllllcully In making their purchases
t lovvci Hgures During the latter halt of
he week conditions Avere somewhat re-
ersed. receipts were lighter , the demand
iCtter and prices Ilrmer all around. Closing
rices for the week nre substantially the
time as n week ago and a good llrm feel-
IB iKJrvades the trade.
Hiirdly enough cnttle arrived today to
fford n fair test of the trade , but the nvld-
ty with which the few ilecent cattle on sale
vere picked up at prices fully a dime higher
ban Krldaj showed that there was plenty
f life and strength In the mnrket. There
vas no outsldp demand , In fact there was
othlng on. sale that would suit shippers ,
ut local dressed beef houses were all wani
ng supplies , and trade was active while It
asted , and the meager offerings had soon
hanged hands.
Only about 15 loads of cows were on the
market , hardly nough to go around All
vanted some and they wore soon worked off
t good strong prices. The slump In values
urlng the early part of the week hns been
ntlrely recovered , and prices for good cows
nd heifers are. If any thing , stronger nt
lie close- than at the opening of the week.
Janrcrs have sold at low , mean prices all
week the supply being rather In excess of
he. demand The mnrket for veal calves
as been active and llrm throughout , but
nrge stock has been selling rather low.
iulls , slaps' , oxen , etc. , have been In liberal
upply , nnd while fat stock has ruled
tomb , rough , thin Mock has been l > Inging
ather unsatisfactory prices
A very good business has been translated
i stockers nnd feeders this week. There
js be ° n a very active demand for good ,
eshy stock and good , smooth , well-
red yearlings , and prices have finned up
Ight along on these grades On the other
and , there hns been a plethora of low
rnde stork cattle , for which the demand
us been of the most Indifferent character
'here has been no noticeable advance on
his class of stock , neither hns there been
ny decline to speak of The movement
v.is sluggish , but the close found the pens
irclty well cleatcd up Oood to choice

Hurrying HOG : * to Market.
Although receipts of hogs this week were
about 19 000 heiv Ier than last , and nearly 24 000
leavler than a year HBO , prices on the whole
iiuo averaged up fully as Rood as last week ,
If not better. Supplies have heen heiv Ier than
for three months , Ihe quality better nnd welsh t
Krenter. The average weight so far this nvmth
lias heen about 218 Ibs In AuBUst It was 203 ,
September 196 , and October 210 Ihs. In speaking
of tha quality of the hogs being marketed at
this point a prominent bujer remarked : 'Tho
IIOBB are lots hetler every way lhan Ihey were a
iitonlh ago. and sllll nolhlnR like as good u Ihey
were a year ago. Hecelpls Includu quite a good
many hoes but of these S < ) to 90 per cent are
old brood sows while the arrivals still contain
large proportion of pigs nnd light weights ,
nnd of these 70 tn 80 per cent are barrows , the
young funvs being kept back for bleeding pur
poses nnd to consume vvhal food may be on
hand A large porernlnge of the hoga have
been fed wheat , nnd they show It , thnt Is they
shrink from 1 to 2 per cent more In killing
than corn hcgs Whrnt fed hogs finished on
corn nre till right. There may be plenty of
hogs In the. country now , and receipts would
seem to Indicate as much , but there won't be
iter on If farmers everywhere aru running In
t lelr pigs and brood sons ns they are here at
present , "
Aside from the Increased receipts which dealers
consider only temporary and due In a lirge
degree to the npproich of rough weather , tlure
his heen no chanBeIn the flltuatlon , Prices
have fluctuated n little more than usual , this
Ix-lngvdue to the Increased activity In the spec

.mve nil Iwcn free buyers here , and Hammond
has taught several thousand nt Hloux City ,
where they have been cheaper. 15antcrn packers
nre gelling plenty of lings at home , nnd very
few of Ihe hogs now coming here crosa the MIs-

There was n very fair run today , the ninety-
four loads received Including ten from Hloux
City , hilled direct to Hammond Packers stnrted
In miller bearish on account of tlio weak close
to provls'ons ' 1'rlday nnd the rattier ample sup
plies todj. Hellers held out for firmer figures ,
nnd under the combined Influence of act he com
pelltlon among local packers and rnlher more
favorable news from Chicago , the market
strengthened and prices ruled steady to a shade
higher than I'rlday , with coma of the later sales
showing nil of a f c advance. Good to choice
