Dealer or less degree. It dot * not appear
that j > eople practice any greater t-conomy
or teat they abstain Jrstn buying on ac
count of the question at issue , but rather
neglect their buslnes * and rpend too much
time In discussing the situation. Inrtead

try and in the cities the same thln.c 1 * true ;
IKOple neglect to do this and that and forget
to buy what they otherwise would , because
their attention i * so aracfn taken up with
tbe sensational new * of ube day.
In addition to that business IP also influ
enced to a great extent by tbe men w bo are
extremely conservative and who alwaj * re
tire from the market , and almost from busi
ness , : very Ume there is a cloud on the
horizon. Oma'na , fortunately , ha * very few
business men of ubat class and for that
reason the effect * of the war scare , which
are so plainly visible In many localities , are
cot much felt in this city.
The whole inclination onToe part of the

traveling men say that business 1 * almost
paralyxt-d by tbe fear of the leadlnc mer-
c'nants , who are refusing to make any
plans for the future in tee way of ex
panding stock * .
In retail clrclt * trade Is very active and
it has been remarked IT old residents that
they could .hardly remember a time when
Omaha presented a more animated apj ear-
ance than It has during the lat-t week. Tne
weather on most days was very pleasant
and shopper * wire out In full force with

J posed of
Bank clearings show a large Increase over
a year aga. the gain Jor the week amounting
to 27 per cent at this point , as ugalnst 12
j > er cent for the whole country. This would
seem to bear out tbe statement made above
to the -effect that business at thin point ias

Cities.
"WHAT JOBBERS ARE DOING ,
tiumber , according to the report * of lead
ing firms. Is selling veil , but UK a matter
of court. ? tbe volume of trade can hardly
be expected to come up to last month when
the retailers of the country were stocking
up. After March there is usually a falling
off In fne volume of sales in this locality
until about September , when the farmers
nre through wlt'n the rush of work and
are ready to undertake the making of Im
provements For this lUne of year , however.
It must be admitted that trade Is excep
tionally good.
Price * in wholesale groceries are stll !
showing an upward tendency. During last
week the price of coffee advanced * , to I
cent per pound , -varying with the grade.
Sugar remains steady , although refineries
report a heavy demand and are oversold
three to five days.
Canned poods , tomatoes and i > eaches are
higher than last week , the Increase in price
amounting tt * from to lit cents per dozen.
This advance is caused by killing frosts
that have occurred in New Jersey , Dela
ware and Maryland , The peach crop is
especially affected and consequently peaches
have advanced more than otber fruits.
Tne market on oatmeal and beans is also
quoted as being higher than a week ago.
California dried fruit * , and especially apri-
cets and fantr peaches , are considerably
hLrlMSLfandMtnrV * : of desirable grades are
well cleaned ip on tbe coast.
Jobber * report the volume of business
transacted last week a * being if anything
larger than for lie week preceding and
taink jirospect * are bright for a continuance
of presentconditions.
List week showed considerable easing up
In tbe demand for wholesale hardware.
This , .however. Is due almost entirely to
the fact that farmer * are busy. Dealer *
that come to the city say that if tbe job
ber * could see the number of farmer * at
work in the field * they -would not wonder
at tbe falling off of business.
To ere 1 * still a sKcht scarcity in some
line * of spring roods , but the supply 1 * con-
tantlr beeomlnjr more liberal and dealers
mm to realize this stringency and are not
placing heavier order * than they require for
immediate use. In a short time the supply
will doubtless be adequate to meet an de
mand * At tne present time the stock of
garden tool * and poultry netting is espe
cially tftnaU.
Ko change of any Importance 1 * reported
in tbe schedule of prices
DBT GOODS MARKET UNCHANGED.
There was little variation last week in
the wholesale dry good * market , Local
jobber * are purchasing stock * and are con
tinuing their business the same a-if there
had 'been no talk of foreign complications.
Tale is not tbe case however in all cities.
Borne of the Jobbers of St. Paul and Kaneas
City are said by travelingmen to have re
fused absolutely to purchase additional
stock * until more 1 * known concerning the
rUatlon * of this country with Spain. A
representative of a New Turk house who
1 * in tbe city at tbe present time says that
toe dry roods business all over the east 1 *
more or leu unsettled. The fact , however ,
that In the same city some merchant * will
purchase new stocks while others prefer to
wait shows that the personality of t'ne deal
er * has a great Seal to do with tbe policy
pursued.
The local demand for dry goods continues
19 be exceptionally road and price * remain
unchanged.
The boot * fl * hD * Jobber * are now receiv
ing orders for fall good * . Their travellng-
coen are on tne road and , generally speak
ing , are meeting with very good success.
A good many of the country merchant * ,
however , are holding back their orders , a *
they expect to come to the exposition and
prefer to make their purchase * at that
time.
According to t'ne report * of wholesale i
fruit dealers the warm weather of the last
few day * created quite an appetite for
oranges and consequently apple * are not in
cuch active demand. The local supply of
apples is rather short and the market ha *
an upward tendency.
Strawberrle * for thl * season of the year
are arriving quite freely and tne quality 1 *
constantly improving. Thus far Text * has
nupplled the bulk of the shipment * , but Ar
kansas berries are expected to put In an
appearance not later than May 3-
From a. commission man's point of view
thl * ha * licen an unusually poor season for.
game. ThW demand for some reason Js far
from being up to the usual standard and
price * in consequence are Tery low. No
rame of any importance i * being Ehlpi > ed
In , ji foe hunter * bo go out from thi *
city keep the market pretty well stocked.
. Fresh vegetable * are now arrivi&g in lib
eral quantities , TVax beans peas spinach
and pieplant have been added to the list
.within the last few days „ .
REAL ESTATE. BENTS AND BAIZES.
The daily real estate totals continue about
tcady for the week , the "nlghestpoint
reached having been something over aKifl.
The total transfer of property uy warranty ,
quit claim and sheriffs detd * averaged
about K&.000 the first half of the week and
about eo.W the latter "naif. The rise of
inn first of the week wa * due mostly to the
large sale t * the Omaha Brewing associa
tion.
tion.Property
Property transfer * and building operation *
were especially active in the northern part
of town. The lack of nouses for rent ha *
not only driven many people to pnrcnase ,
but at the same time .has caused an in
crease in ther building of small houses.
Sheriff" * sale * continue to be characterized
toy an absence of bidders , moricagees al
most invariably bidding in and then deedIng -
Ing to tbe prospective purchaser. The most
of tbe property' offered aas been poor and
would-be purchaser * are afraid to bid. Sev
eral choice piece * , however , have passed
under sheriff * sale within the last few
flay * , notably a piece In the old plat of the
city of Omaha , Welch brought CHOW at
forced sale. It waa appraised at ! , * .
The feeling in tbe rental market i * Tery
strong and it it cafe to say that dwelling
nouses would bring more rent than two
auontfe * ago. *
VALUBB TAKE A TUMBLE.
A feature of the week that 1 * tar from
encouraging i the heavy decline in live

would happen or what course the mtrkrl *
'
'would take at -breaking out of war has
apparently eMrolnaU-d almost all oeculaUv *

time manufacturer * ef neat firodectc have

CHICAGO , April It The strength of the
ortlrn wheat markets and the belief that
mpendhig hottilltlcs wfll cause a rise In
price * made wVical today almost a * strong
as It was -neak yesterday and resulted In
an advance of Jc In July. Foreigner * ac-
'epted freely of TCfterday * * cable offers.
Corn made the -unusual advance of % ic.
while oats closed HQT c higher , both mar-
tets being affected principally by wheat ,
'revisions Ehow little change.
Traders in wheat were treated to a gen
uine surprise at the oi > eninc. In spite of all
the selling- done "aere yesterday of millions
f bushels by the important long Interests ,
na notwithstanding the drop of 3c a bu.
n July , all foreign market * came higher.
Jvtrpool in particular was strong , showing
advam-iB ranging from Jd to \ & . A fca-
ure of the advance at Liverpool was the
act that toe July price there was ic higher
than the prevailing price In this market , or
considerably abave the average shipping
rates. New Tork reported that accept
ances of wheat in all positions made by
cable from there yesterday would be the
icavlest of the season , practically every
thing offered being taken. It was evident
rom tali that the belief In war over
shadowed everything else in the minds of
the foreigners. The opening trades in July
were at from K-7 c to Bc , against M * * f
MT c at the close j-esterday. For a moment
or two the market hesitated. Then it com
menced to advance and for forty-five min
utes the buying dtmand wa * simply enor- .
mous. All clones of trader * came into the
market for Vneat. It was not A onesmaa
market : the demand was general and broad.
The ordinary news of the day was as com-
Betely Ignored as it was yesterday. Troi-
-rs paid but little attention to anything
but the foreign demand for American
wheat , but this , was sufficient. Not until
the price had advanced to K75vc was there
any marked selling pressure. This price ,
nowever , was well above calls and selling
against these privileges , coupled with lib-
tral realizing of a general kind , put a stop
to the advance ana caused the market to
recede slowly to Wftne. Apparently by this
time the demand for wheat had t > een pretty
wtll satisfied , for although the marktt re
acted to ST ic , it was done slowly , the lat
ter point not being reached until about
11:20. During the last half hour of the
short Saturday session the market was
camparatit ely quiet , hut firm , with prices
keeping within a i c margin. Northwest
receipts were light , Minneapolis and Dulufa
reporting JDS cars , against 171 last week
and 124 a year ago. Chicago receipts were
77 cars. The audition to contract stocks
today amounted to 101,030 bu. Clearances
from Atlantic ports -were 71MKW bu. The
world's shipments Monday are expected to
show absut 7.KK > .0 bu. Liter sales of July
yesterday , which were placed at that time
at Fi , < K 0WK > bu. , were estimated today by
many as hiph as .000,000 ba. . and as to is
was believed to have practically put him
out of the July deal it undoubtedly had A
good deal to do with the hroadenlnr out of
trade. This belief was strengthened by the
fact Caat today his dealings were compara
tively insignificant. The closing price for
July was KCc ,
Corn was strong from the start. There
was quite heavy buying all day , many
prominent local players being caught short
by the unexpected jump In wheat , a sharp

There was an active general trade in
oats. Prices w re maintained for some tltr
but broke rapidly -under heavy selling. The
market closed rather easy. May ranged

Prj-viElons were very dull , most of the
trading done being in lard. War talk an ;
t'ne strength of the grain markets caused
a small early advance , which -was lost later
under celling by local packers. The close

Receipts were a little larter thasaeel ;
li-jo , lii > , cars of stock of t.i ianas bdnc
jtportfd In at against tiEhtynfour lart Sat-
tirda3 * . In fact It w us a pretty fair run for
the last of the wt-ek , but the number was
made up pretty largely of hogs and sheep ,
there being only about the usual supply of
cattle.
The receipts of cattle this week trrre
quite large for this market as wlU be noted
from the abave taole , t'nere belnp quite a
decided ( rain over previous week. The re
ceipts of hops -were also larger liian the
art-rate for the last month , and the name
was true of sheep.
CATTLE There were about fifty loads
of cattle repined In the yards today. Welch
was vtry lair for the lust day of the weik
and more than Cnlcajro and Kansas City
tioti tocttier. The most of the cattle re
tieef Eteers , pome fifteen loads of Montana
hay fed cattle being Included among the
receipts.
The market AS a whole "was slow and
draccy and there was a very marked ab
sence of file and enerpjto the trade.
Tnere was some , inquiry for fat beef cat
tle , but it "was of an Indifferent character ,
the buyers acting as If they did not muta
care -whether they tot any cattle or not.
The result was a slow and easier market.
Bntchtrs' stock sold but eveaOWE and
heifers were slow and -Beak and It took *
good deal of hard work and considerable
lime , considering tne few here , to effect a
clearance.
Practically nothing was doing in the line
of stockers and feeders the market as ;
usual on a Saturday being very quiet.
The cattle market this week has been
far from satisfactory to the selling inter
ests , as values have eifierienced a heavy
break. The licht demand for meat prod-
nets , tioupled wifn a liberal run of cttle ,
has caused a reneral decline at ajl market
points , and while the decline &as been
heavier on pome kinds than on'ethers no
kind of cattle has esceped. Heavy and
coarse beef steers have been the worst suf
ferers , the market on fnat kind of cattle be-
inr > 6-30c lower than A week ara , And in
extreme cases many sellers would say 40c
lower. Tidy little cattle have been tjhe best
sellers and In consequence are only 10@3tc
lower. Choice corn fed heifer * ihave felt the
decline About as little as * ny kind of stock ,
but the medium grades of both cows and
'neifers are 10 15c lower than -week ago.
Stockers and feeders are also low. the heav
iest decline being on ibeavy feeder * , which
have been extremely slow seller * all the
week. The country * fems to have jrown
Afraid , of stock cattle at current prices
with fat cattle declining so eharpiy. Repre
