The coiirpo of trade during the pnst week
uriiH Inclined to bo slow nnd dull In all the
different departments of the Jobbing busl-
jiess. but when It Is taken Into consideration
that this Is the month of August great al
lowances must be made. This Is the month
when the Jobber , as a rule , looks for very
little business , lie may sell some goods for
future delivery , which meann that the buyer
may take the goods later In the fall. If ho
does not conclude to cancel the order , but
the nrtunl amount of business transacted
thin month Is always small OH compared
with other months of the year.
The grocers are putting out it considerable
volume of goods and the dry goods people
nnd boot nnd shoo dealers report u satis
factory trnde , Lumber Is slow nnd hard
ware. Is not very active , owing to the small
amount of building going on at the present
time.
Capital Is timid niul new ventures do not
materialize- very often ; In fact every one
appears to bo content for the present to
allow business to run along In the present
channels until the future can bo foretold
with greater accuracy.
The crop reports give promise of a very
largo yield ot corn this season , which w
exceed tin ) record of a year ago. This will
certainly give business to the railroads ,
and. oven If prices should continue low. It
must bring In a good deal ot money to the
farmers. In this state the crop Is prac
tically beyond damage possibilities and It
may bo said that the prosperity of Je-
hrasku Is Insured for the year to come , at
least If the. general business condition of
the country will only show some Improve
ment.
ment.STOCK YAUD8 THADH SLOW.
At South Omaha this has been a dull
month so far , owing to the fact that It Is
tlin betwoen-seasons time In tlm rattle
trade. The cornfed eat tie from the farms
and feed lots of the stain hnvo been ex
hausted , wlillo the range cattle from the
western stales and territories have not as
yet commenced to come foi ward In any tin ig
like/ largo numbers. On u good many days
of thu past week there have not been
enough fat cattle In the yards to really
ntnkn a market. At the same tlmo the de
mand remains good and packing houses
hiivo been forced to go out Into other
markets and buy cattle In order to keep
their houses running. . , . , . . ,
the
lly next month It Is expected that
range catllo will bo coming freely nnd then
business ought to tnko on decidedly more
life nt the packing town. All reports agree
that the feed on the ranges has been ex
ceptionally good this season and opera torn
on the market generally are expecting that
the rattle will bo very good when they do
In Vplte of the fact that business has
lieen so fiulet during the past two weeks
or more the receipts since the first of the
year fool up a little larger than for the
corresponding period of last year.
ci-BAruxas.
During the past seven months of the
present year the total clearings nt Omaha
hnvo amounted to $13i.04M3. ( ; as against
J1C003S2S1 for the corresponding period of
ISflS and $143,230.020 for the corresponding
period of 1S31. These llsures , while show
ing a gain In the clcarlnsis this year , mill
show n deficiency nn compared with 1S3I.
nnd the decrease shown would bo still
greater If we worn to go back to ISM.
Taking the country as a whole , there has
been a t/radual recovery In the clearings
slnco 1S9I. a small gain being shown for
each year , but the rerord Is still behind
ISO. , by a good many billions of dollars.
An Intercsllng fnct brought out by the
report of the clearings Is that the low
( point In the country nt large was reached
In 1S9I. but Omaha held up a good deal
better than many other cities that year
nnd It was not until the crop failure of IS'J-
nmile Itself fell that this city experience * :
thu full force of UIR hard limes. For that
reason the low point was not reached here
wlH last year.
AMONG THU MANUFACTUMKllS.
In manufaetnilng circles the Interesting
question the past week has been repnrdliiK
the coming state fair and the kind of an
exhibit that the Manufacturers' association
should have. Yesterday the members ol
the association , who will nmko nxhlblls
met at the fair grounds In company with
Secretary Holmes and laid off llm space
nnd slr.ed up the work of ruttl'iir their goods
in place.
During the past weelc the secretary o
the Manufacturers' association spent somt
tlmo In Nebraska City and ho speaks In the
highest terms of the thrift nnd enterprise
of the people of that plncu. Mr. Holmes
Biys that he noted a number of new resi
liences In course of construction that wouli
bo n credit to nnv city In tlio country Thi
new library building especially deserves no
tlce , according to the opinion of the gentle
man qiinlcd. The people raised by sub
stirlptlon $1,000 , with which they purrlmsei
a lot nnd Joy Morton Is furnishing the
money for the building.
The Nebraska City Canning company Is
putting up the product of 101 acres of swec
corn and Is very much pleased with thq
quality of the goods this year , the con
being plump and white.
Tim Cereal mills people have moved Into
a new olllcc , the building formerly used n
a creamery having been lilted up for Ilia
purpose. They start Ihelr endue on Mon
day morning nnd do not shul down untl
Saturday night , the mill being run day am
nlu'hl.
The starch factory was closed down for i
short tlmo to give opportunity for necessao
lepalrs , hut It has been operated full forci
nil the year. I nst season the compnii )
biilll on an addition Mxlf.O fcnt , flvo slorlos
In height , but It has been proven that this
does not afford any too much room.
The Dnllenty Plow company has hud a
good trade In plows , niul now as It Is on
of the season on that class of goods the
company Is giving lit ) attention to the
mnnufncturo of a patent emlgnto fnr fnrn
wngoiiB. During the coming season the
company will push the Bale of riding cultl
vntors and II Is expected to giv.itly Inereas
the output of thai Implement.

CHICAGO. AUK. IS. Thcro was a ilonrth
of Interest In the wheat nuir'et today.
Tliu volume of business wim small niul out

niul tinchnriKcil ut f > 5c. Corn was more nc-
tivc , closing n trlllc hlpher tlmn It did
IMility. Provisions solil oft curly on raiding
liy tlio Ctulnhy crowd , recovering later on
Inlying by people who not short early.
There was not much of a trade In wheiit ,
the market ruling dull and draining ll"
dny , with lluctuntlons limited to from % c
tolie. . A fairly 'linn frollng prevailed at
the Htart , nflor which a weak spell set In ,
but llnnl figures were tinchmiKoil In Sep
tember , while December wits up Uc. Moderate
e-rate northwest receipts , higher cables and
fair exports for the week were responsible
for the early llrmness. Liverpool was lip
> , id and then Argentine shipments were
moderate. The cloning Herlln cables were
n shade blKher. Thorn were no cables
from 1'arls , owing to a holiday. The mar
ket rallied near the close on reports of
liberal cablu acceptances at seuboard.
The corn market exhibited very little
activity , rulltiK dull most of the d.iy within
n -"lie range. The feeling displayed at the
start was easy , after which there was it
moderate rally , and llnal figures showed
a slight advance. There was little news nt
luiiid. The movement Is H'ocral anil the
weather good. Hucclpta were about as
looked for.
Oats were stronger , with a fair trade
and prices advanced from lie to ? * c from
the low point and closed at the top with
a gain of We. The feature was the moderate -
orate offerings and the fair covering by
shorts. Some changing from September to
May was Indulged In at He dllTerenco.
Provisions sold olt early , but rallied and
Closed showliiR fair gains In everything
except September pork , which exhibited a
decline of luc as compared with yesterday.
The Cudiihy crowd hammered this future ,
causing the weakness mentioned. As a
result of the early selling the crowd got
short , making It necessary to buy In later ,
causing the rally. There was some chang
ing of September lard. Yesterday offers
were made to curry It to January for 40e
and today at from 40c to 42 ! c was paid.
There was a better cash demand for lard
and a moderate demand for markets. Sep
tember ipork opened at tG.STi , broke to J(5 ( ,
rallied to Jil.20 and closed at $0.15. Sep
tember lard started nt J.1.27'fe. broke to
! .22Vi and rallied to from $3.30 to J3.32V4 nt
the close. September ribs opened at $3.25
bid. sold at that price and advanced to
$3.32' at the close.

nggrcfslvp nninlpiihillnn hy large reprrsenlatlvr
[ linking interests , slid were signally defeated. A
featurewns the execution or iclnxestmcnt orders
In pome of the high-priced slocks mid bonds.
The trading nt the outset was characterized by
decided weakness , the lowest prices In tlio re
cent movement being recorded In n number of
stocks. Developments affecting the market In
cluded Increasing firmness In cnll money , S per
cent being Ilic extreme figure attnlned ; Ihe fail
ure of n minor locnl banking Institution and a
further weakness In tha foreign exchange mar
ket , both nrtunl and posted rates being lowered
materially ,
The declaration of the regular quarterly divi
dend nf 1 per cent by the Iturllnxton directors
gave the bears a decided shaking Up. IIH the
majority of the contingent had banked upon a
reduction of the nmmint distributed , If not the
actual passage of the dividend. A reaction In
money rates from the highest figures and ex
pectations of a readjustment f the southern
rate troubles were nlsi > points In favor of betuy
prices , and served to offset Incrciises In traf-
ilc returns published. The liulusttlahi wcio the
prlim- feature of Interest , nnd cspeclnlly Sugar
nnd I'hlcago Ons. which made the most sub
stantial rallies from the low points. Manhat
tan broke badly on ! l < | Uldntlun and bear raidIng -
Ing , but Inter stiffened sharply In sympathy
with the Improving ternlcncy of the general
list. Thu recovery from the low level rnnged
from f , to 10 per cent In Iho principal shares.
wltli the final prices generally nt concessions
from tlie top le\el. The bond market today was
depressed on light offerings. Ijoutsvllli * , New
Albany & Chicago consols and general 5s were
conspicuous for concessions of S and 3 per cent
on rccelveishlp rumors. The week's market
showed decided strength on n subsidence of
liquidation nnd purchases by local and foreign
ImoHtors. The hlgh-prlcod Issues ruled nt Im
proved figures , hut sales nt marked declines wen-
nlso recorded In them. The speculative mort
gages were 3 to 5 points higher , with tin1
Atchlson nnd Kansas & Texas liens the gainers.
The sales were J8.013.000. ( ImermnentH ruled
higher , with the new 4s rising exceptionally 2
per cent to 113. Tlio sales wort ! J1W.OOO. Sliver
certlllcates were weak nnd sagged to CH BC on
dealings of Jill , 000.
The New York Financier says this week : Tlio
total cash holdings of thi- New York clearing
house banks , according to the statement for the
week ending August 15 , l ! "i are JlSli.2IS.400. Of
this amount nine banks alone hold JM.flM.oDO. or
over 45 per cunt. In view. of this condition , It Is
not surprising that thcro Is a continued tendency
ti > call In loans. Some of the Institutions arc
below the legal reserve , and tie ; demand for
funds from the Interior Is not dlinlnls.icil. Tlio
excess reserve of the clearing house banks Is
lower than It has been for'over two years , but
when It Is recalled that during the correspond
ing week three years T > gf > the hanks were J12-
045 , SOO under their legal requirements , their Im
measurably superior standing nt picscnt will
be better understood.
In fnct. the 1 > nnk statement for the current
week Is unusually logical , and bhowa the effect
of changes that have been going on for over
two weeks past. The decre.iso In loans probably
reflects the liquidation' ' action , enforced through
the necessity of replenishing the reserve , and
the loss In cash represents the heavy demand
on th banks from tlieTnlerlor , which 1ms been
n factor In the situation fur several weeks past.
There seems to be no jrrobanlllty that the state
ment next wpek will show results much different
from thofce of the current week , nnd thft period
of higher money rates will probably continue
until -itlcully adjusted to an easier situa
tion through domestic measures , or the attrac
tion of foreign money by the tempting interest
rates. - -

CINCINNATI. Aug. 15. A head-end colli
sion took place about 3:30 : this morning
three-quarlers of a mlle east of Torch Hill ,
0. . on Iho Haltlmoro & Ohio road about
three miles west of Parltcrsburg , "W. Va. ,
Westbound passenger train No. 1 and east-
hound freight train No. 80 came togelher
with a crash In a cut. The trainmen ap
parently had no tlmo to Jump and they
went down. Kaglticcr Hump anil Klreman
Huffman on No. 1 were Instantly killed , also
Engineer W. A. Johnston of No. 80. Fire
man Thompson of No. 80 was badly scalded ,
also Hr.ikcman Overly of No. SO. Postal
Clerk Ormoiul was slightly Injured. The
engineer ot the freight had orders to take
the siding at Torch Hill. It Is Impossible
to conjecture why ho did not do so. The
fact that ho was not far cast of the siding
leads to the supposition that his Intention
was to run beyond nnd back In on the sid
ing. The postal car was considerably dam
aged but the other cars of the passenger
train were not Injured.
