\ volume of business Is I not / large as I L
: might hove been had the weather been I
colt r , so 0 to have cAused A greater de.
pleton of retail Btoeks In the country ,
Thus far this season the weather hns been

expected that business will be dull the hal
nnco of the month anti jobbers In those )

During the Imt week hero were several I
exceptionally line days , which brought out
n crowd of hopers In the city , who tool

w. BANK cL.E4RINGS.
There has been very little said abut
Omalm's bank clearings oC late : In fact
there hM bcom little to 'say beyond the
I' tact that the volume oC clrnrlnls was con-

Interest to know that pmnhn makes as

cItes and n great deal ' better than many.
In this connection I must be brne In mimi
that Omaha ha.q suffered from the effects
oC the lerJral depression existing In all
parts cC the country , the same as other
cttte . while 1/ addition the crop faIlure In
this section has Jlacc 11 additional burden
on Omaha. Under these conditIons Omaha

FIE INBUHANCE BUSINESS.

Insurance hli droppel to such 1 low Ilure
that Insurance companies Insisted that
