TJIE < mAHA DAILY BEEtrifiUNDAY , APRIL 14 , 1895. Local Jobbing Business Presents Ho Im portant Features , COUNTRY COLLECTIONS ARE FALLING OFF I'dmier/i / Are Too Ha y In the I'lclds to Visit the Towm-lleof Citttlonnd the HlKli 1'rlceof llcnts .Iliinu- futlurorV Dolngit , fhe icbblnR trade during the past week has been of a rather commonplace charac ter. There has been no change In the gen eral situation nor have new features been developed to give any special character to the trade , liu.slnesx hau contlini-d to flow along the name channel * an during the past few weeks and there has been hardly any change In the volume of th goods mov ing. ing.One One Jobber may report a slight gain In the amount of his sales for the week , but at the s.une time other Jobbing houses will have experienced a slight falling off , so that the actual volume ot business doing does not show much variance from week to week. Everything points to the name end a dull trade for thu next few months , or until the outcome if the season's crops Is pretty wi-ll known. In the meantime the jobbers are reaching out Into every corner of the country after nil the buHliiess that Is to be hud. One can hardly talk with n Jobber without hearing of hu having secured busi ness from gome out-of-the-way quarter wi"re ! he never thought of lojklng for trade. During life past three or four days letters have commenced to arrive quite freely from the country retail merchants complaining that trade Is very quiet as a result of the farmers all being .busy In the llelds. The opening up of spring work on the farms Is always the xlgnal for a decrease In the re tail Kales In the country , but this ueason It Is llki-ly to cut a mure Important feature than In ordinary years. When the farmers have money they can run into town and do their trading and return home without the leas of tnurli time. This year the farmers have not III * money and many of them have gone through the winter by picking up an odd Job here nnd there , selling a little poul try or a few eggs , In fact , anything that Would bring In the price of a few pounds of groceries. Now that they are busy In the llelds they have something to do that In of more Importance than running to town with eggs. Not only do the country merchants feel the falling off In their trade but th Jobbers report collections slower than was the case a month ago. From present Indication * It Is safe to say that collections can hardly bo expected to be otherwise than backward for some little time to come. JJKKF COMBS HIGH. In the language of the stock yards , beef cattle are "Hying high , " and when the pack ers want them they have lo "go gunning , " but they are not go high as the irrowor.i would like to see them. In fact , the iirowrr has said o much about the advance on live cattle not being commensurate with tlio advance in the pilce of dressed beef that the secretary ot agriculture has Issued an order to have the mutter Investigated. Ac cording to the dispatches the order of UK Hccretnry has occasioned some talk nt the different live stock markets of the country , but at South Omahn the matter has not l > pn considered of "Ulllclent Importance to vvante any breath upon. When questioned la regard to the matter cattlemen , both buyers and sellers , dismiss the subject by remarking that It Is tli- > same old chestnut that 1ms been brought out time and again. Senator Vest of Mis souri some four yeaia ago conceived the Idea that there might be a bef trust for the iniipOHc of controlling the price of cattle and dressed meats , and secured the ap pointment of u senatorial committee to Investigate the Bubjvct. Several meetings were held at Chluago and other polntt ) and the most prominent packers of the country appeared botora it. The cattle growers of the country took up the matter and held a great convention In Fort Worth to devise ways and means tor combatting the trust. Sevciiil hundred cattle- growers from all sections of the west met , organized , and dlubandcd without doing anything more than pass n few harmless resolutions. The butchers' unUns In many secllons of the country took up the light and the packers were besieged from all Hides. With all the assistance of cattle growers and butchers Senator Vest was only able to prove that there were more cattle than usual coming to market and that prices were correspond ingly lower for live cuttle and dressed beef. Now the situation Is changed entirely. There are fcwi-r cattle than usual coming to market and prices on both cattle and 1 > oer have advanced very rapidly. The charge , however. Is the same , that there Is u beef trust which Is putting up the price Vf meat faster than thu price of live cattle. Among live Htock dealers at the yards , who have no connection with the packing houses , the suggestion of a beef trim Is always rldlculcii. It has never been charged or suspected that nil th ? cattle bujers wre party to the trust , but only the co-called big four , nnd those who are familiar with the ln and outs of the business point to the vast extent of the cattle Industry and nsk how It would be possible for any four men to control the b cf market. Hesides- the big four there are n good many smaller puckers and hmulmlH ot buyers who pick up beef cattle and ship Hum to New "iork and other points where there are packing houses or large butchers who kill their own cattle. Then there are the expert buyers , . speculators , scalpers and in n without num ber who ate ready to Jump Into the market the minute they can see u margin between the price of cattle and the pries ot meat. All these men would have to be seen and sat isfied before a trust or combine could be formed and by the time they hud been placated tKere would , be a ficah rrop ot speculators and shippers on the market to be reckoned with. Cattlemen say that It Is utterly imi ossllile for any sit of men to corner the beet cattle market , not only from the vast extent oC the business , but the peculiar nature of the business mak-s It impractical to carry out any such a scheme. Other cattle men say that If such a lom- blne did exist It would have to be known to so many IIIHII that the necret would not keep twenty-four hours and that there would bo no necessity for an Investigation on the part of the secretary of agriculture , the facts WvUld be known to Hie whole world In n very short time. The advance In the price of cattle and 1 dressed beef Is simply due to the short corn crop. Thousands of cattle un * bought by the farmer * and taken out late the coun try In the fall and placed on corn feed. In the latter part ot tlu winter and early spring these cattle if turn to the market in the Hlmpo of prime corn-fed beef. La t fall the farmer * Uld not have the corn .mil the light grass cattle were not taken back to the country , but were run out and ed of. With the opening of the present year cattl * men suddenly woke up to the fact that there wan a scarcity tf fat cattle In the country , and the question commenced to go the rounds , where Is our supply of beef coming from ? Thus fur this year there has betn a falling off In the receipts of cattle ; at the four leading markets , Chicago , Kan- has City. Omaha and St. Louis , amounting . lo almost 300.000 head. Thla does not , how ever , tell the whole story , as there has also been a hirn decr/nsc In the weight ot the cattle , so that the actual los In beef would amount to more than might be Indicated by i the nbove figures. Thousands of light cows , nnd heifers have b-en rushed to market to take the place cf the usual heavy corn fed cattle. Thu advance on that clasi of ofml cattle has been something phenomenal and the Mipply U being rapidly drained from the country. Owing to the reluctance of the public to buy anything that Is very high priced , > re hus b-'tn ' a larger demand for cheap ef than for the best corn fed , and for that .reason It will be found that the low grades of cattle sell relatively higher than prime beevfrs. This phase of the cubject was fully Illustrated In the market of the past week ; , when the price on the best c rn fed cattle went oft 40 cents per hundred , duo to the shrinkage In the demand ronuequent upon the advance In the price ot moats. At the same lime cows and other cheap grades of cattle showed very little decline. A packer observes lhat the people who are complaining about the advance of meal and arc Insinuating that there Is n > atef combine base their figures on the price of beef steaks and talk ns If lhat constituted the wh > la of the bcof Htilmal. The packers claim that meats have ben advanced only da ( he same propoitlcm an live cattle. This advance jdiows up very large when the choice cuts of meat an : taken Into consid eration , , flomo of the comments made by eastern pap r cause onnsliUrnbtc amusement among lock men.

Dun & CO.'B Mercantile nRency , creaking , as usual , ot trade conditions , gays : "The abundant rains nnd the early spring hnvo combined to nwnken hope In every breast , nnd to stimulate nirricxilturnl effort nil over the state. No results In cash have come from the Improved conditions to the stale at large , but It Is encouraging to see confidence In the future returnltiR , and returning - turning In strength. locnl jobbers report a Koo < i week and retail trade Is fair. "The time hns come to Invite ImmlBra- tlon. The act passed by the legislature creating an Immigration bureau has been vetoed by Governor llolcomb , but this need not Interfere with n concerted movement of cities , citizens and railways to Induce farmers - ers tn et L upon our hinds. The slogan should be l.MW.uy * people by ISO ) and 2OOO.OX ) by 1M5. ' This Is easy of accomplishment. Two million people In Nebraska means 200.- OOil In Omaha nt least , nnd It means a vast addition to the trade of the city. "The Governor has slRiied the canal bill , and without xcrtitlnlzlnff the measure I am prepared to express the hope that If the new proposition Is as meritorious as the one of last fall the county commissioners will un doubtedly cull a bond election. The feasi bility of th ? enterprise Is no loncer In doubt. The legislative or statutory obstruc tions are believed to have been removed and now the poopU should determine with out further delay wh-ther or not they wish to undertake to utilize the power which competent eriKlneers tell us may be devel oped at Seymour parl < and may be readily transmitted to us In the city. "The city charter will remain unchanRed for another blennlum. This Is unfortunate In s < ame particulars. The amended charter rushed throUKh In the lust hour < * of the session was open to serious objections , but It contained some wise provisions. AH orig inally prepared by the citizens' committee and Introduced In both houses It seemed to be an exceptionally well considered In strument , and for the s < akj of the city I am sorry that our legislative delegation undertook Us amendment , nnd especially that It was subordinated In lmi > ortance by them to strictly political measures. How- ever. It may be well enough for Omaha to wear her old clothes for two years.Vo have grown very fast nnd taxes have In creased yearly. We ought to take a short breathing spell , nnd th-- present Is nn ex cellent time for It. On the whole , It Is perhaps well that the old municipal act re mains In forcj. ' The Ncbras-ka legislature enacted no new luwa affecting the rommer- olnl code , excepting only that the clerk of the district court Is now required to keep an Incumbrance book. This will bo a convenience In searching the rec- , irdH. Colorado has materially changed lur attachment laws. After ninety days the ' grounds"of attachment will be nbo'ut the sumo as In Nebraska , nnd the provision Tor prorating on attachments Is repealed. Heretofore HIP fact that a d In was past dtiu and unpaid was sulllclent ground for at taching Ihe debtor's property , and attach ing creditors under the statute were given no preferences by r nson of the seniority of levies made or writs Issued. "In South Dakota the foolish law regu lating the business of mercantile agencies , which caused all our competitors to give up reporting traders In that state , was re pealed , but another almo. t art unnecessary and quite as onerous to the trade has been enacted. The law Itself Is not new , but It was not enforced or cnforcable prior to the present time. It requires all corporations doing business In South Dakota to Hie copies of their articles of Incorporation with the secretary of state nnd to appoint resident agents upon whom process may be served. The penalties for violating the net are somewhat severe , and already the wide awake lawyers of our northern neighbor are actively suRgestlng to the corporations of the country that they should place them selves within the pale of the law. This act paused with the emergency clause and Is now In effect. Corporations with slow cus tomers In South Dakota , whom they may wish to sue , thoulil not wait until after their actions are Instituted before complying with the new law. After they have Illed their articles and appointed u resident agent It will behoove them to walk circumspectly befote their debtors or defend no end < petty suits before an unfriendly Justice court , or before a Jury made up of a cus- ° "ThP rchioval of the prohibition against compiling mercantile reports In South Da kota will be Immediately beneficial to job bers operating In that territory. \ \ e are already making a thorough revision of nl the traders In the proscribed region , and presume that this agency will not be the only one reporting South Dakota hence forth. " . KViitVIIOUV TAKISO I1KAKT AUAIN. Courugo of the IVoplo Hevlvlng ami Tone nf Trucln llrlRlitcnlng , The local superintendent of Snow , Church & CO.'B Mercantile agency writes : "The Improved tone of trade throughout thla western country , as a result of the re cent refreshingralna , has only become dis tinctly apparent during the past week. The contrast between the depression Immedi ately preceding the rainfall and the revival of spirits following the same has been very marked. There has been , of course , very little result In the way of actual Increase n the volume of trade , but that was hardly to b ? expected. Ualn , at this season , merely means an Improvement In the condition of the soil and Increased prospects of a heavy crop In the fall. Sal smen ami business men generally , who experienced the dull feel ng of depression which prevailed here during the latter part of March and the early part of April , can appreciate to the ful extent the hopeful attitude of merchants since the Uetiillors report a slight Increase In trade , and wholesalers a few more orders , but whether this Is merely nn Incident ol the reason or a result of Improved conditions can hardly be stated with any degree of safety. In the Irrigated parts of the state propaintlons are going on to quite nn ex tent , and It Is claimed that most of the plants will bi In a position to turn water Into the ditches when the proper time CO"Acc'ordlng to reports received from all parts of the state , the Indications are that Ih" acreage of corn this year will be aVger than ever before In the history of Nebraska. A Rood crop will , therefore , mean a larger amount of produca to be marketed than ever before , liiyond th s general Improvement In prospects there Is no marked change In the business situation. "Several local enterprises are being vigor ously agitated , nnd It la probable that they will reach consummation during the year , but the general volume ot trade shows lit e increase nnd about nil that can be said Is that the general tone Is better , and mer chants In this section of the country are more hopeful.

CHICAGO , April 13.-The wheat operators re becoming convinced that the wheat which was loaded Into vessels here In the vlnter was nil right and of unblemished haraclT. The market Ijecamo llrm and loed ? 8c lilKhcr today than It did on 'hursdiiy. ' Corn nnd oats were very weak , orn closingc lower and cats ' ,4c lower , 'revisions ruled steady and n shade higher , 'he sumo disturbing element which st the vheat In a ferment on Thursday was vorked over again this morning- and was he principal clement In creating the early fluctuations. It was discovered that after having partly unloaded thu 400.000 IHI. of wheat , which It vas paid was to be put back Into store In- lead of being sent to Buffalo on the original c harter , the owners of the grain had ordered t ho unloaded portion of the cargoes back li nto the vessels again and the vessels to liP P roceed with It to Us original destination. That gave the bears another opportunity to V vork a scare on the other party. Upon In- liilry at the firm of vessel agents who n nade tin- charter they confirmed the reload- n ug of the wheat , but said the wheat was In t he best of order and weighed 62 Ibs. to the b luchel.

The price worked gradually upward to KiHc , nnd , after re a eling once U 5lc , It alternated during the K ; rcater part of the remainder of the session b ietween C > 5c bid and C5c sellers und closed nt B 5c sellers. The movement of the crop was I n : favor of the bulls The shipments of v \heat nnd Hour from both coasts amounted vI' vt o 2Wl,17tl bu. , against 2SJ3U33 bu. on the I' irevlotis ' week.
