CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE
Jabbing Trade Moves Right Along in a Very
Catitfactory Manner ,
COLLECTIONS GOOD FOR W.NTER SEASON

The past week wns In most respects like
the previous week fo for as the character
of business cloltip was concerned. Down In
the Jobbing district evcrythlnfj moved along
In a satisfactory manner , but new features
of Importance were not developed. The In
tervention of a holiday In the middle of the
week nnturally breaks In Upon trade In
ntnplu linen , and to some extent Is a de
moralizer of the recular routine. At the
turns- time It stimulates the demand for
certain lln < > s of goods which makes up for
the fulling off of sales In other depart
ments.
The holiday trade this year was very sat
isfactory In the main , though It may be
said to have ! been somewhat spotted. That
Is , while some houses reported a very large
business doing , some other houses seemed
to feel rather disappointed at the outcome.
The totnl volume of sales , however , wns
much larner this year than last. The peo-
jile In all sections of tributary territory
have more money than n year ugo nnd the
liolldny was more generally observed as a
feast day. Sales of such fancy goods ns
nuts , confectionery , dried fruits , etc. , were
lutgre the week before , while poultry nb-
porbcil the attention during the three days
preceding the holiday.
It has been several years since Omaha
Indulged Its uppetltc for Thanksgiving cheer
no liberally ns th ( . past week. Srme of the
who.esule commission houses In the produce
district report the largest business , In their
lilstory. while all were very busy.
Weather conditions are becoming more
favorable every duy , Inasmuch as a lower
temperature Is compelling consumers to
supply themselves wllti winter goods of all
kinds. A decided Improvement Is noted In
the country trade during the past few-
days Incident to this change In weather
conditions which can hardly fall to be re
flected In the demand for merchandise at
jobbing houses. In the retail districts of
the city the sudden change has been pro
ductive of active buying , anjl the trade ut
the eloFe of the week was iuout the live
liest thnt It has been nny time this season.
Stormy and wet weather would probably
Btlll further Increase the demand for poods
at retail especially In certain lines , but
without that the condition of trade Is quite
eutlsfactory.
OmnhnV bank clenrlags for the past week
twere small , owing to the fact that the week
contained only live business days , but at
thp same time they showed n very gratify
ing gain over the corresponding week last
year , the rateof Increase being larger than
the average for the whole country.
The past was n busy week at South
Omnha owing to the extensive building
operations that are b Ing carried on. The
work on the new exchange building Is being
pushed forward with srent viper nnd one
portion of the building la already under
roof. There was also a heavy business
doing In live stock ; for a holiday week , tht
arrivals of hogs having been the largest
In n long time.
JOBBERS AND MAXTFACTTOEnS.
The Wtstnrn Electrical company Is put
ting In the electric lighting plant nt the
State Normal school at Tent. The com
pany also has the contract for lighting the
state Insane asylum at Norfo'.k
Governor Tanner of Illinois has notified the
managers of tlhe various state Institutions
that hereafter oil supplies for s-ate Institu
tions must be purchared of citizens of Illi
nois , Instead of from parties In other states
The governor cxiplalns his action by saying
that he has noticed an Inclination on the
I > art of Jome of the managers of state In
stitutions to buy supplies In adjoining states
but that outKl'.le merchants and inanufac-
iturero did not pay taxes In Illinois nnd did
not contribute In any 'way to the support
of th state Institutions. At the same time
there are plenty of manufacturers In the
fitatc who could supply all that mlgTit be
needtxl nt the state lnsttutlon : . The gov
ernor of Nebraska , nnd the State Board of
Purchase and Supplies have been fo lowing
this plan for some little time and It has
resulted In the keeping of a peed deal of
work at home Instead of Its being sent out
of the state. There Is some disposition
among the managers of fome of the Ne
braska state Institutions to discriminate
against homo products In frpite of the fa
vorable action of the state board.
Cnlcago jobbers are considerably inorked
up over the Inroads upon tftelr trade ; hat
are being made by western jobbers. Ac
cording to the Chicago Times-Herald , efforts
nre being made In that city to establish an
organization for tha purpose of boomlns
trade with the west and to recurc direct a
laru'o ' proportion of she business which Is
now given to the smaller jobbing centers.
The Chicago Journal o.f Commerce adds that
this movement should Intluence forcibly the
Jobbers of t.tat city. "The marol of prog
ress , " continues that paper , "has passed
Chicago fur beyond and established pro
gressive Jobbing centers at favorably located
points In prosperous sections of thewest. .
Within the past ten years small jobbing
hous.en nt Omihn , Kansas City. Davenport.
Indianapolis. Sioux City , Milwaukee , Minne
apolis and St. Paul have grown Into youns
Klants tftat nre coping courageously with the
Chicago Jobber for the hardware trade In
the entire .errltory they embrace. TVOFD
houses have been rapidly built up by young
men of courage and aggressive ability , who
nre a power In their community and earnest
denizens In the development of western
trade. "

CHICAGO. Nov. 2" . All of yesterday's
l * o advance In May whc.it was lost today ,
while December dropped l ; c. There wns a
blp Increase In winter wheat offerings , espe
cially from Indiana , and this was very ef
fective with the crowd , who sold from the
start. Other markets were dull with nar
row fluctuations and only slight changes
In prices at the close.
Wheat opened weak for both May n.nd
December. May started ViP o lower at
M'iGM'ic nnd December at We , a decline of
lie. Liverpool cables were disappointing ,

to the bulge here yesterday.
Northwest receipts were 974 cars , against
972 cars last week. The persistency with
-which receipts up there refuse to fall oft. In
spite of all predictions to the contrary , was
also a clog to the market. It developed that
the heavy advance In December was having
Its natural effect upon country shippers ,
iwho possessed any that would pass Inspec
tion. Wheat that would have gone to To-
kdo or St Louis under nominal conditions
was headed this way and 80,000 bushels of
red No. 2 winter wheat from Indiana was
sold In the pit from We to M > ic for Decem
ber delivery. The opening decline In that
future was pressed into a still further re
duction when the above Information be
came generally known. Chicago receipts
were 2M ) ciu-s.
IJradstreet's report made clearances of
wheat nnd Hour for the week from both
roasts at R,4rM.nO ) bu hels , against , CTkl , )0 )
bushels the weeck before and 3,7 3.000 bupi'i-
e.s the corresponding week of IbM. There
was some bull news to hand , but little at
tention wns paid to It. New York reported
R2 boat loads sold for export. 20 of them
for Austria. The day's clearances from the
Atlantic seaboard amounted to 490,000 bush-
c-ls. Only about 750.000 bushels Increase in
the visible Is expected Monday.
Tne advices from the northwest were that
owing to bad weather farmers' deliveries
lutd materially fnllt-n off. The bearish ef
fect of the sales of No. 2 red winter wheat
to urrlve here from India wns Increassd
when It became known that handlers of
cash wheat were sellers of carloads to ar
rive from Iowa and Nebraska correspond
ents who had No. 1 northern spring to ship.
Armour dfc Co. likewise sold December
wheat In the pit , which was supposed to be
against wheat bought In Duluth to come
here. Selling of December finally became so
free that the market broke to 97hc. Near
the opening it had sold as high as 99Vie.
It steadied somewhat at 97'Ae ami by clos
ing time had recovered to 97 ic. May did

Corn was slow , wi.h trade for the most
part consisting of transfers of December

Oats were weaker nnd closed lower. The
decline In wheat had a depressing effect.
December showed some strength shortly
after the opening on a fair demand , but the

NEW lOtlK , Nov. 17-Tht flfck market
awoke from lU letharBJ' today ona did a lively
buMncx * In the fecond hour of the Baturdsr
shon tpsslon. The volume of the dealings and
the Keneral movement of prices were greater
than have been seen In several week * put. The
reappearance on the bonnl of one of the principal
opcr tor during the summer rife In prices and
the distribution of InrRe order * for hit account
were undoubtedly the principal causes of the rite.
The tTFlKlance of the market during- the week
to pressure oml the gradual hardening of price *
In spile of the dullness had laid the foundation
for an advance in prices under any confident
leadership. The rtrencth manlferted Alarmed the
short * and they hastened to cover , thus helping
along the rise.
It wan noticeable thnt the strength and ac
tivity of the market were tran ferred from spc-
dallies und Industrials to where they have bren
largely confined of late to t'.e standard railway
chart * . The gains of about a point or over were
registered In the granger shares , the coaler * and
a. number i > f trunk lines. The southern line *
lagged In a rather conspicuous manner notwith
standing the ttronc statement of the Atchlson
for October , showing an Increase In net earnings
of 51K,7W.
No small part of the Mrength In the railway
llet was due to the anticipation that the supreme
court uK > n reassembling on Sci > 3ay after Uu
autumn rece will hand down a decision In the
N > br ka maximum fii Ight rate case favorable
to the railroads. This decision has long been
looked forward to to give an upward Impetus
to prices , and prices have In fact Wen several
times advan.v d on the assumption thnt It would
be favorable and hav ( Bus.-cnuently reacted.
Sugar was strong and easily led , but there wns
an ivlvance of 1V > per ecm nn reports that a de
cision from the Treasmj departmsnt would be
Roon forthcoming applying the countervailing
duty clause to Dutch refined sugar.
The bank statement wns about what was ex-
pecteJ. Although there wrs nn actual Increase
In the cash r. ? erve of M.rJS.TfO , the legal reserve
wns raided by more tnan that amount , owing
to the tremcndou" Increase of $16.744.100 In th
deposits. The surplus reserve In consequence hn
fallen off by JS47.3i1. The excess of the Increase
In deposits over that In loans reflects the move
ments of currency from the Interior to this cen
ter. The large pr"portlonn or the Incrcnfes In
loans and deposits are of couire reflections of
the Vnlon Pacific payment on 'Monday
The condition of the money market , present nnd
prospective , ha ? lieen of greater Interest all week
than the stock market. The heavy I'nlon Pa
cific payment made not the Kllchtest Impression
on the market. Of course the fact that the gov
ernment left the whole amount on tit-posit after
Us payment obviated Its actual withdrawal from
the market , but the fact remains that the raising
of an enormous amount of cash wns effected , nna
an extensive shifting of loans and account * ac
complished that would establish a stiffening
rate for money somewhat had the market not
been In a plethor1condition. . Even the resump
tion of buslnen activity In the south with the
removal of yellow fever quarantines hot failed
to result In any notable demand for money from
that quarter. The west Is i-emling money to New
Tortc ? bank , vault. In ttal rrglon Lrtng Plent -

reported to have several million dollars loaned

Remittances to pay for these have helped to
keep the exchange market mm.
The rtock market h&s offered almost no feature
of Interest during tne wee. ; . As a result of to

The rocelp-.s of cattle for the week entlltiR
November 27 i.\trt' the pmalles-l of any week
since the second 'Ac-ek In August. During
thu early part of the week the receipts were
liberal , but very small during the latter
half , as a result of the Intervening holiday.
At the same time the recelp-.p of hoc * were
larger tttan the pervious \\e k's record by
over 10.000 head and the largest of any week
since the first -week In August. The sacep
receipts were the largest since the llrst week
of the present month.
CATTLE There were only thirty-four
fresh loads of cattle In the yards anil only
twenty-seven of them iJivre on Bale. The
market , as is almost Invariably the case on
a Saturday. < xas without feature of Impor
tance. The cattle sold at prices about the
same as prevailed yeserday. ;
The Intervention of a holiday In the middle
of the week always tends to demoralize tne
trade to some extent and nuturally reduces
the receipts. The past week , however , the
cattle market was In a very healthy condi
tion , despite nny drawbacks there may have
been. The demand for all kinds of cattle
was good and fully equal to the moderatu
receipts. Kjch day's arrivals met generally
with quite ready sale and at prices that
shoiaied little variation from day to day. On
Tuesday there was a break of about lOc on
fat cattle , but that -was fully made up be
fore the close of tae week. Representative

1KS ; The hay market looked up today und

reasonably active and everything was Bold and
weighed up In good reason.

( o J3.45 , Ti-lth the blR built at )3.23&3.M ) > . while
yesterday JS.204T3 S5 bought almost everythlnR.
The ueneral tendency of the hop market for
the last week was. downward that Is. the de
clines more than balanced the advances. Ths
week oj ned with on advance of about dc , but
that xvut * all lost and more , t03 , on Tuct-dny , the
avernce decline on that day amounting to o er
lOc. On Wednesday the market was JuH about
steady , but on Thursday It was 2'c hlRher. On
Friday came the cecond rharp break of the week ,
vnluen for the day averaging 79ic lower. Tiiut
was not only the low day of the week , but of the
month to date as well. In fact the overuse
price was the lowest of nny day since July 10.
The advance at the close of the week left the
market a utrong tc loner than It wan at the
clore of the prevlour week.
In rplte of the fsct that the market wan lower
the paM week. It wan still KUOc higher than a
year ago. and that. too. In the face of much
larger receipts ut all market ? .
T.ie dtmand was of very fair proportions nil
the week find the receipts generally met with
