CROP REPORTS FROM ALL SECTIONS GOOD Country Mrrnlinnlft In I.nrRp Numbers ViNlt ( lie Cll > -.loMn-r * l Mimt All Linen Hi-port a Vrry Knit Trail e Country I'roilnoc. Thft feature of the past week , ns roR.irds the Jobbing trade of the rlty , was the largo attendance of country buyers consequent upon the holding of tlio State fair. Kor Homo weeks retailers In all sections of Ne braska nnd In western Iowa ns well have bxen looking forward to State fair week ns the time when they would visit the city nnd innko ft personal selection ot stocks , as well an enjoy a brief holiday. A. good iniiny orders Imvo been held baek with that end In Vluw , and the merchants who visited the city the past week were all ready to buy. It Is snfo to say that It was -the liveliest week that Omaha Jobbers have experienced In a long time. No one bought very heavily , hut every one bought HOIUO- thlns- and the orders as a whole footed up to very respectable amounts at the differ ent Jobbing houses. Kvery merchant had a good deal to say ixbout the splendid crops In his * section , so ni'.ich corn , hay and feed of all kinds that farmers do not know what to do with all the produce that they have grown. The only unfortunate feature Is that prices are so low that the farmers have no money. Small grain hardly nioro than pays the cost of hauling to market , while hay will not sell for enough In Omaha to pay the freight , except trom nearby points. The Hcarulty of money In the country consequent quent upon the very low prices paid for farm produce was the reason given by visiting buyers for the smallncsa ot their orders. Jobbers , after listening to the opinions of retail merchants , generally express them selves ns satlsllcd that there can be no decided Improvement In the voluino of busi ness doing until prices on leading farm products advance. UIl-'FlSnENT UUPAUTMENTS OFTIIADK Hut to change from generalities to a moro detailed account : The dry goods people rc- pcrt a large and active business. It is not to bo understood that there has been a big clashing business or that largo orders have been the rule. On the contrary , the orders hnvu been generally small , ranging mostly fiom $100 to $110 , though some have been booked that ran considerably above the last named llgtire. It will bo some tlmo befoie all the orders will bo sent out In spite of the fact that extra force has been put to woik In the. ! shipping departments. There have been a large number of hard ware merchants In during the week , and , while they have placed a good many orders , the orders generally have been small. In dicating that the buyers are Htlll without confidence In the ability of the country to consume any great quantity ot merchan dise. A good deal of complaint was heard as to the scarcity of money , owing to the very low prlees , and until there Is a change In that respect merchants do not appear to expect very much business and they nre accordingly buying very sparingly. One boot ami shoo house kept a register for all visiting merchants anil at the close of the week It contained 175 names. A very considerable business was done by the Job- . hers representing that branch of the Job bing trade , but , as was the case In other lines , the orders were generally small. A fair business la reported by the rubber goods people. The furniture trade was something of a dls.'ippolntment. The attendance of buyers representing that line of business was small ami the orders showed a very conservative feeling. The fnct Is that furniture Is gen erally looked upon as a luxury In the coun try and hence something thai can be done without when money Is scarce and times hard , WITH THE GHOCHUS. In the grocery line there Is not much that u merchant cares to select from per sonal examination , the goods for the most parf being , standard. At .the same time the grocery 'Jobbers took great pains to entertain all their customers. The attend ance of country grocers was large and the volume of trade very satisfactory. The Jobbing grocery houses arc beginning to feel the Influence ot the approach of fall The demand has been Improved In all lines during the past week , but retailers are sill pursuing a conservative ! course In buying Their orders are all for small lots , but they are more numerous than nt any Him since the spring season closed. Prices resl on a low imsls nnd there Is little In the outlook for the near future tovtirr.ini buyers In expecting an Increase In market values. In fact , the general opinion seems to be that prlees In most lines will , If any thing , bo lower a month hence. Country produce markets have been very quiet all the week. The holding of a state fair Is the Hlgnal for every one to run li all the produce In the surrounding country with the result that prices arc depressoi and trade Is rendered very dull for the lar produce houses.

CHICACiO. Sept. C. Corn nin.1 oats both went through their accustomed perform ance of making new low records today , closing about Uo lower each. Wheat snf- feied from apprehension of heavy northwest - west receipts and closed -He lower. Pro visions declined from Ce to lOc. Wheat at the opening gave it perform ance that has become stale from frequent repetition. It made a false start nt about advance , and had to Immediately re turn nnd commence over again. Decem ber. which closed yesterday at from oS'.ic to 5SV- , commenced this morning nl tS'.ic. In about ten minutes It was down around MHO , with occasionally a few sales at 1-lCc below that , and In the close neighborhood of those prices It rested for a time. The Immediate cause of the opening rise was that comparatively cheerful tone of the llnanclal columns of the morning papers nnd the publication of the heavy quality ot 3,3G3,8G2 bu. as the dour and wheat export for the week , compared with 2.2CO.OOO bu. In the similar week of the year before. Cables , as has frequently been the case re cently. did not respond to the decline here yesterday , nnd this was an additional source of strength. The weakness which so quickly succeeded the V\c opening advance was ostensibly the result of the carload re ceipts at Minneapolis and Duluth , being reported - ported as numbering 1,117 cars , against 1,159 last year. The effect of this was dissi pated , however , when It was learned that the receipts at Minneapolis were the ac cumulation of two days , but It had the ef fect of calling general attention to what may bo expected from that source , An accumulation of over 3,000,1)00 ) bu. for the week , expected as the result of the move ment , with that much more to he carried In thu visible supply on a stringent money market , was without doubt the chief reason for the decline. The Chicago receipts were 2CS cars , only ten of which were ot rontract quality. The ilny'a clearances from Atlan tic ports were liberal , and Now York re ported a good Inquiry there for export , but nothing could revive the bullish spirit of the market , which had been so promptly Bat upon at the opening. Lower continental 'cables ' tntensltlcu thu weakness , and a gen eral selling out ot purchases made around BStie carried the price down to from 57c to 5Sc at the close. Corn was still weaker than It had boon , reaching an even lower depth. September declined to the unprocedentodly low price of 13lc per bu. May opened a shade higher at from 21 c to 21140 , but soon turned weak and declined to 21 lie , the closing price. The weakness of wheat and the fact that corn Is now practically out' of danger from frost were the ruling Inlluences. Oats were slow and weak , prices reaching n lower llgure than ever known before. I'ho weakness In wheat and corn and the dullness In speculation were against the price. May opened unchanged nt lSc , and declined to from ISMc to lSic , where It closed. Provisions virtually repeated the/ per formance of the day before. Trade was light and when buyers appeared the pack ers had all kinds for sale for January de livery. January pork declined from $ . > .G.j at the start to $5.53 , closing nt the latter.

The New York FlnanclW says this week : Al though over J7.r > POono arrived from Europe , over 14,000,000 of thH gold arrived too late to be In- eluded In the current statement. From this time out the bunks should begin to reflect the full effects of the heavy shipment. The FtMe * men ! otherwise Is n repetlllon of those for three weeks previous. The Imnks are closing heavily to the Interior , and lire making up for the wlth- diawals of enxli by eonlrnetlns their loans , nnd mo also taking out ns much new circulation ns possible to tide over the piesent stringency. .Hist bow long this policy of contraction could be continued without serious results Is a ques tion , but fortunately the supply of gold received or now lu transit will render further action of tbo kind unnecessary. The bank slalement does not show It , but the Imports of gold nre nlrt-ndy easing the situation to u considerable extent. The trouble Is thnt the surplus l.s unevenly dis tributed twelve of the national banks ftlll be ing below Ihc 21 l > er Cent reserve , one of them , Ilio National ritliens , showing only 1G.B per cent. As for netual operations the banns gained II.S3I.1CO In gold. The loss in null , considering the magnitude of Interior shipments , Is rather small. The one favorable feature wilch the week's results show Is that withdrawals for hoarding do not liuiire tn any extent Thp decrease In deposits was caused liy loan 'commotions and the movinent nhovc stated. Tlmt the loss In rash nt this season Is not abnormal Is shown by Hie fact that the Intel lor demands lust year from September , to October M , decreased deposits fK.Oon.OiM ) . The Fourth National , Third Niillonnl and Western National made large Increases In circulation. Since the first week In August the banks have taken out tl.179.MO new circulation. Whether , as In 1W3 , the notes will be returned almost nil- used It not known , but B , furf.ier expansion In vli-w of the heavy gold Import * , would seem un likely ns the prollt In It Is only fractional.

To the Killtor ot The Dee : In answer to the article In the morning World-Herald ot August 21) ) , In which a statement Is made that "Clay county , lown , Is doubtful : " You will no tice that the writer of that article haa not the courage to sign his name. If he knows anything about thu politics of this county he knows that It Is safely republican and for McKlnloy , as Is the state of Vermont. The free silver democrats and populists of this county have Joined forces In support of Mr. Uryan and the Chicago platform , but notwithstanding nil that the majority for MeKlnley and honest money will receive nn increased vote over any previous year In Clay county's history. We are In the best portion of the best agricultural state In the union ; our population Is of that Intelli gent class that has made Iowa farms valu able and easy to borrow money on at the lowest rates of Interest , an.d with few ex ceptions they have no desire to pay their debts In depreciated money , but on the 3d of November they will march up to the polls and vote for the man who is In favor of opening up the factories of the United States , thereby restoring to the farmers the markets that gave them good prices for their products , rather than the man who would open up the. mints owned by the taxpayers of the United States to the mine owners of the world for the pur pose of coining without price GO cents worth of their product into United States dollars and then ask these same farmert , to guarantee their value. Wo have Just completed a poll of this county by town ships and wo find , as I have stated , an Increased majority for the republican ticket over any previous year , and nearly every day some one that we had noted ns for free silver and Ilryan conies to us and asks fo lirfvo Us change out4 books so ns to have them , show his name safely In the republican ranks' for MeKlnley and hopest money.

To Ucpubllcan Women ; The honorable recognition given to women by the national republican com mittee should bo acknowledged by them In embracing the present opportunity to serve the republican party and the country. Never were there more powerful and obvious mo tives for persistent and united effort among women than now. Morality nnd unity , the Indispensable supports of the home and the nation , are being assailed. Where is se curity for thn future honesty of our sons If they arc now taught the lessons of repudia tion ? Where is security for our national union that cost us suffering and blood If partisan misrepresentation and Intrigue alienate the south and west from north and cast ? In the name of good faith and honesty , of union and prosperity , we urge women every where to help maintain the nation's honor and unity. This can ho done most clfcctlvely by united effort in forming women's repub lican clubs , or MeKlnley nnd Holmrt clubs or sound money clubs , where women can meet and discuss the great Issues of the campaign and can consult as to plans anil methods of Influencing voters. In cnnncctlon with and under the super vision of the national republican committee the women's branch of the work has opened headquarters In the Auditorium Annex , Chicago cage , where all communications to me should be addressed. I shall be plcapcd to com municate with any person relative to any phase of the work and to furnish campaign literature and constitutions for the forma tion of local clubs. I shall soon he speak ing on the republican platform for McKlnloy nnd Hobart and hope to meet many of you personally. Yours sincerely , J. EU..BN FOSTER. That Crt'iil Itnlly nt Si-iilii. ( SCOTIA , Neb. , Sept. 2. To the Editor of Tlio Uco : In the World-Herald of Au gust SO .ia a long dispatch from Grccloy Center , telling of the wonderful populist rally held there on thn night of August 29. There was quite a crowd out , but It was obtained by subterfuge. The mana gers advertised Judge John II , Thompson uf Grand Island , well knowing the people would not turn out to hear Jim Swain. The Judge was not here. Jim Swuln spoke and ho was followed by W. II. Thompson , who actually converted populists to McKlnloy. instead of making votes for tlio Chicago ticket several populists have enrolled themselves In tlio MeKlnley club. Most of the crowd came from North Loup. Horace and Orceloy Center , The disturb ance complained of was a row between s'onio hoys outside the rink and was KOOII stopped. II. S. S.

The total for the week ' was 12.M7 head , as compared with 1C.S79 last week nndJG.onz for the week pre vious. These Hgiifcs show a heavy falling off In the cattle receipts ? , the loss for the week amounting to about -1,000 head. Of the cattle hero today several loads were consigned direct to the packers , leav ing only 750 head on snle. Not enough beef steers were ofTer.'d to make any test of the market or establish prices. One bunch of l.HKi-lh. beeves brought $1.05 , and some pretty lair westerns , $3.10. The prlees puld were probably not much differ ent from yesterday. Cows and heifers 'were also In very lim ited supply and > ld at about steady prices. 1-eeders were slow and dull. U beliiR Saturday no one seemed Inclined to buy unless they could get sonic concession in the price to make It an object. The cattle market of the past week has been In fair condition' on most days as re gards the selling Interests. The demand for all kinds has been active , and the ar rivals on most days have met with ready sale nt the prevailing prices. The great scarcity of beef steers has been a serious drawback ami has prevented there being much activity In that department of the market. Native fat cattle appear to be about all marketed In this section of the country , and the western range cattle arc few of them good enough for the killers. ] ' /1lJlHh..cnrnfo(1 ! rattle have sold around SI.OOJi 1.10 nnd good grass westerns up to $ . ' , .ii. but there have been very few of ( hat kind coming. The general tendency of the market on fat cattle has necn upward , and prices could safely he quoted irK higher for the week. Ilutchers' stock , such as cows and heifers has been In active demand nnd moderate supply nil the week , a combination of cir cumstances that has Riven values n gradual upward tendency. The advance for the wcck ; bus been about ilie same as oil sUucrs. A very considerable proportion of all the cattle received .during the week consisted of stockers and feeders , mostly western feeders. Thu demand for that kind of cat- tip was good nnd all the ai rivals sold freelv \ alucs daring the first half of the week showed some little : advance. The common grades , however , coining' most too fast for the demand , cnusuil a break on Friday. The week closed about KG lower than the high point of the week. Itepresentatlve nnnr STBCHS. No. Av.

Considerable Interest has recently attached to experiments which have been madn by expert mcdlrnl men mid others well versed In such matters for the purpose of deter mining the elllcleney and destructlvcness of modern military rifles. It was until re cently claimed , says Ilio Now Orleans I'lcayuno. that the moilern rllle , havlni ; a Kreat Initial velocity , a very long rniiEO and u projectile ot very small caliber , would provo a humane weapon to the extent that the wounds Indicted would ho less illlllcult to heal and treat surgically than wounds Initiated by the old-style rifles , with their Inrso projectiles and j.igged penetration. The bullets fired by the modern guns nro long and nuirow , pointed with steel nnd coated with a nickel and copper alloy. It was thought that such a porjcctllo would pass through the human body nnd tissues , thus indicting wounds that would bo easier of treatment on the Held and moro readily curable In hospital. It was , of course , ad mitted that the percentage of killed outright would ho larger , owing to the greater range of modern weapons , and tlio probability tlmt at close range a single ball would penetrate several bodies before being stopped. lleccnt experiments conducted In this country by llrlng the Krag-Jorgcnseii rillo now used by the army at corpses of men and animals created the Impression that not only would the destruction of life bo very * t great through the perforation of vital or- a gnus , but the percentage of serious nnd latal wounds would be greatly Increased be cause of the terrible destruction to bono and tissue produced by thu passage through the body of thcso high-power bullets. In stead of the smnll , almost Imperceptible wounds thnt were expected , the very rc- yerso was found to be the case. Tlio Spanish surgeons connected'with the army lit Cuba have also reported IntorestlnR icsnlts from their observation of the effects t ot modern high-power rifles. The Spanish army uses the Mauser ride , a modern arm of great cffectivonesH. The surgooils duel that the bullets from the Spanish rides am terribly dostructlvo when flro.il at close rnngo , the great velocity causing the bul lets to produce frightful wounds. It ap pears that the rapid passage of the bullets through the bodies of these lilt produces very much the same result as the perfora tion of a closed box III I oil with ll < | iild or seml-llqulcl. Apparently an Internal uxplo- slon tnlccs place which inakcK woundB fatal whle.li if Indicted with the old weapons would have been scarcely serious. On the other hand , the Spanish surgeons found that wounds Indicted from n long range showed none of the terrible symp toms which those produced by bullets IIrod at close rungo displayed. At long rangd the Mauser bullets made small , clean wounds , readily treated on the Held and rapidly curort In hospital.
