of crops and In part to the fact that farm-
cr3 are not cUtte as busy as they have
been for some time past. Country merchantS -
chantS that are calling on the jobbers all
talk of the Improvement In their trade and
feel certain of a flne busIn9s this fall.
The market last week was comparatively
tendy. A few change' . however , are re-
ported. The sugar market is still strong
and refineries report more doing ; In fact
many of them are oversold on veral
grades. Raw sugar has already advanced
and with the coming on of another period
of heavy consumption higher prices may
be expected on the finished product a
well.
The market for both canned and dried
California fruits is in a very excited condition -
dition and prices have advanced on nearly
all lines. The situation on ea3tern canned
goods , however. remalna the same with
the exception of peaches. which are ? Irmlng
up because of the unusually light irnck.
FnrtnaceoUa goods are also fluctuating to
some extent. oatmeal having advanced Oc
per barrel over the quotation of a week
ago. while beans have fallen oi form tZc
changes of Ira-
per bushel. No other
portance are noted.
The hardware situation remains about the
same as It was a week ago. The better
feeilng existing throughout this part of the
country ta of course having its effect upon
the volume of business transacted by lob-
b.rs and con4eqUent1YthY are well pleased

firm on all tiara. with tndlcattorta pointing
toward lt remaining in that condition for
some time to come. Collections are very
satisfactory.
Pu II G nod 0 n llantl.
There Is nothing of a very startling
nature to report regarding the dry goods
trade. Jobbers now have practically all
their fall goods on hand and are htpping
them into the country at a surprisIng rate.
A few Country dealers arp holding off with
their orders for some unknown reason. but
merchants say it Is only a question of time
before they will have to come around. so
there is no cause for uneasiness. Trade
this year has been very satisfactory indeed
in every respect and local dealers are not
. at all backward in predicting a bright
future for the jobbing trade of this city.
The market is virtually unchanged and
probably will not change. at least In the
near futue. The attempt on the part of
mill owners to stop temporarily the production -
tion of printed cloth was a failure and
it now remains for the Individual owners
to use their own discretion about shutting
down. It l cot thught. however. that in
. any case the market wtlVbe aftected.
Fillin Fail Orders.
Boot and shoe men are also enjoying a
nice trade. Their principal occupation at
the present time Is tilling fall orders to
be shipped Into the far weSt. A few mar-
chants in this state also want their goods.
but the majority of them do not care to
he bthere4l with fall supplies at this early
date. Fresh orders are being received every
day. but jobbers say that country dealers
are buying cauttoUlT and do not care to
place their ords hastily.
Rubber gnos merthants ae well satla-
fled with all ne fature of thetr trade.
They say that country dealers appear to
want the goods. but on account of the ax-
cessire cutting of prices they hold o in
the hope of getting batter bids and sr.em
. to think there Is no telling when the bot-
torn is actually reached. Low prices of
course mean small rotits and while the
volume of businesS may be entirely satis-
: factory. still that hardly makes up for the
small margin.
Vill Neat ! More Building's.
The lumber trade is now on the upward
grade and since the dry weather scare is

means that farmers will have to do a
great deal of building , a.s many farms are
almost without buildings and the need of
them is severely felt. Farmers as a class
'
'I are not slow to make the necessary Im-
prorements on their places when they
have the money. and knowing that. It is
no wonder that lumbermen feel conddent
' of a good fall trade.
Pr1cte are flrm on all lines and It is
thought present prices will be permanent.
Fruit and Produec.
Commission men report no particular
change in their line of business. Trade
continues active aod good stock as a rule
meetS with rendy sale. Peaches are now
the popular fruit and the receIpts are quite
. liberal from both California and Missouri.
I r Twenty-pound boxes of Caiifornia Craw-
t fords sell at from $1.C' ) to l.lO. and the four
basket crates of Missouri Flbertas bring
and the six-basket crates 1.5O. It is
) expected that the supply of Mtouri El-
? bertas will materially increase this week.
Bartlett pears are now selling at p.25 and
. plums at Sl:4L5O. The market is being
tloodesi with tomatoes and at present they
ivill not bring over jfLc. )
The egg market l.ist week was rather
uncertain and in spite of the fact that
priceH were higher here than at surround-
sag points. the receipts were light. They
are now being quoted at lc. though the
market is weak.
Prices on poultry fell off considerably last
, week and spring chickens will not now
bring over SOc. The demand is still very
good. in fact more are being used here
every day than ever before , but the re-
ceipis are more than correspondingly
heavy. Then. too. spring chickens are
ettin rather large. which would In part
xplstid the drop. I-lens are quoted at from
6isjc ; and ducks and geese at 5e. The
butter market remains the same as a week
ago.

CHICAGO , Aug. IL-IndicatIons of a
spring wheat movement on a sotle esim-
mensurate with the exceptIonally hvy
crop caused a sharp decline in wheat today.
September closed 1 5-Se lower and Deesm-
bet last Ic. Corn left off unchanged to I-6c
lower. Oats are down 1-Sc. Pork advanced
Sc. lard 3'P4e and ribs lOc.
Liverpool quotations instead of showing
any sympathy with yesterday's higher
prices on this side were a little lower than
the latest of the day before. That gave
the direction to speculation sentiment here
at the start First trades In September
wheat were at Oc. down to 66re , against
67 1-Scl67i1c , last night's closing figure. The
weather for maturing what was still un-
harvested of the snrlnc wheat eron was all
that could be desired. and reports trom the
northwest were tar from encouraging to
the long's in the market. A dispatch from
up north said it was confidently expected
Minneapolis and Duluth would in about two
weeks be receiving an average of 40. ) cars a
day. In addition to that about an hour
arter the opening Minneapolis reported Tc
a bu. drop in the price of cash wheat to'
arrive. Such information and foreshadow-
Ings of the future drove from the mind of
the traders all concern about todays actual
receipts , which were as conspicuously short
of last year's movement as they have been
for some time. Chicago received 1C9 ears
and Minneapolis and Duluth 142. against
23.3 last year. The market was kept from
getting radically weak Zor a time by estimates -
mates that Chicago would only have iCe )
cars of wheat Monday , but that gave way
again to impending free movement of spring
wheat anti the market wound up very
heavy. September operted 6-Se lower at
; . ; , declined to tC and closed at
6.'j655-Sc. December began 3.Stc down
at 64 1St4tc , sold off to and closed
at 625-Se.
Corn was steady' for September. but De-
camber was sold with considerable freedom
and got to a shade discount under the
near delivery. The weather was as favorable -
able as could be desired for the recupara-
( Ion of the sick portion of the crop. The
price , however , was not generally coasid-
ered high for a promise of an 13.300.030 bu.
crop that has still to undergo the vlcisi-
tudes of the weather of another six weeks.
September started 1-Sc lower at 321.4 5-Sc.
advanced to 32'c and closed at 5-Sc.
Shippers were the only buyers to speak
of in oats and that grain merely followed
the fluctuations of corn. September started
unchanged to 1-Sc down at 204e. weakened
to 05-SC and firmed up to ZO5-S2O4c at
the close.
The yellow fever scare that shook the
holding out of the wealt-kneed members of
the provision crowd yesterday was today
pronounced a matter of no ac.'ount except
for such purposes as it had accomplished.
Buying by brokers. actIng for oack1n
ho se quickly absorbed the offerings and
prices took an upward turn near the close.
September pork opened tOe down at 13.96.
sold up to 13.15 ansI declined to $9.10. the
closing figire. September lard began un-
chanced at 33.30 and oltI up to $3.23. the
closing price. September rbs opened Sc
lower at $3.i2L and rose to $3.2TL at the
close.

trading has been of a heavier caliber than

NEW TORE , Aug. 13.-The animation of
today's stock market was far lees than
that of last Saturday and the net gains
on the day's transactions ware much less
striking. The actual signing of the peace
protocol brought no enthusiastic buying.
but on the other hand it brought no realta.
lag sales , such as are likely to occur on
the culminatIon of an event heralded and
discounted.
There was a large and steady demand
throughout the .s.wrt session of the ex-
cn.ange. wnicn acm prices quite nrmy
throughout the list. Active buying in a
few stocks was ConpicUOU , esp-eially
Northern Pacific common. which added another -
other potnt to Its price in the course sf the
day. 'The grangers were strong ansi Union
Pacific showed an advancing tendency.
The southern railroads continued somewhat -
what depressed , owing to the yellow fever
case reported at a town Ia Louisiana. E'en
in the absence of an eidrnic the precautionary -
tionary quarantines are likely to Interfere
seriously with railro.id trafllc. Kansas &
Texas preferred dropped off a point under
this informatton. The motlve or the recent
selling of Manhattan was disclosed by the
report for the June qu4rter 5howing a fail-
lag off in gross earnings compared with
last year of $145.97. The stock was lifted
after early deprassion by the demand to
cover. Very notable advances were shown
by the Rubber stocks , Tobacco. and New
york Mr Brake.
There was no evidence of heavy liquidation -
tion for London account as a result of the
Anglo-Russian crisis and those who sold
short yesterday. professing fears of such
a result. bought to cover today. The large
decrease of 30flI,150 in the surplus reserves
of the banks was without ettect. The cbs-
ing was generally llrm. only a few stocks
showing slight rectasions from the best.
The dealings in stocks this week rose fully
l.e'.eft ) shares over those of last week. but
are still almost 1.1..C' , ) shar below those
of the corresponding week of last year.
The par value of bonds sold at the ax-
change during the week was , however ,
fully equal to that of last year and cx-
ceeds $ .L&.b. . ) . Business was extremely
varied in character and embraced so ex-
tensis'e a list of tecurities that the move-
meat of special stocks was of little ettect
in deciding the course of prices.Veaknes
at sonic points was witaout infiueuc at
others. Where the demand seemed to & on-
tinue unabated there was obviously reali-
tug going on. but apparently the profits
( rota sales were diverted to other stocks
of lower grade. which had not yet moved
upward. The demand for stocks is undoubtedly -
doubtedly based on general conditions and
tha market has beCn littla affected by the
sPec.l : non's developments of each slay.
The Evening Post s London financial cc-
biegram says : The market today was
stagnant and dull. the only feature being
.1. small recovery in Grand Trunks. on the
belief that the mait carry forwards is ,
perhaps. due to the barge amount set aside
for roiiing stock. Americans were about on
a. party with New York quotations. There
is a surprise here that American exchange
is firmer. following the New York spurt in
money rates. The market finds It most
ditficult to form any estimate of gold shipments -
ments to New York later on.

ning the heaviest for any week since the
last of June. The bog receipts for the week
were liberal , but the break In values the

iight. as wiil be noted above. the loss
amounting to almost one-half. as compared
with the week before.
CATTLE-There were not enough cattle
here to make much of a showing in the
yards , anti stilt Omaha had more cattle
than some other markets. The demand ap-
panted to be good for all kinds of cattle
and the offerings were all taken , everything -
thing being sold and weighed up at an
early hour. The prices paid were fully
steady and even strong in some cases.
Cornfed steers are selling higher than a
week ago ansi as high as they have been
any time this year. The demand has been
good right along and sellers have been
able to secure very satisfactory prices.
Good cow stuff has also sold well. corn-
feds sl'owtng little chance in the matter of
values for the week. Good grassers have
been in active demand and values have
been well maintained on that kind also.
Some western grass spayed heifers sold
today at $4.25. Medium to common cows
have nit done so well as the better grades
and are now all of ZSc lower than a week
ago.
