Copious showers of rain In the western
part of the state where there were serious
fears of a drouth have materially bright
ened bui n ss prospects in Omhha and a
better feeling prevails than was the case
a week ago. Only good reports were re
ceived last week from travjllng men and
local Jobbers unite In declaring that all ad-
Vlccs sustain the assertion that crops , and
hence business prospects , were never betur
In thla part of the country. Local retail
trade continues good and everything in the
way of seasonable mcrchandls ; Is moving
Ircely. Locally collections arc good ana
money easy. Bank clearings have not been
showing up very well , owing , It is claimed ,
to the efforts of parties who bslleve It to
their IntcreslB to keep them down. It can
be shown , however , with very little troub o
that the volume of business this year la
larger Instead of smaller. This Is ts.PelS'a11.ly. '

are favorable for a good fall trade.
Frnlt mill Produce.
The produce , market has been very even
during the "veek and changes have been few
and far between. Eggs showed some weak
ness toward the last of the week , but poul
try was In moderate receipts and remained
nrm. Receivers are complaining loudly of
the swindle In new potatoes from the south
It would appear that southern shippers arc
deliberately shoycllne soil into the sacks
make- them weigh heav-
. of potatoes so as to -
/ ler. There lias nlways been trouble on this
i score but this season It Is worse than ever ,
and It looks as If Nebraska would soon have
nil the soli In the south. The sidewalks In
front of the houses hand.lng potatoes are
hidden by a thick covering of dirt that
works through the ( jacks. In many cases
handlers are obliged to dump the potatoes
nnd resack them so as to get rid of the sur
plus soil. The result will bo to the disad
vantage of southern growers as wholesaler ! }
will soon bo afraid to buy and stock will
tf have to be sent to market entirely on con-
A Blgnments.
Grain Men Active.
Favorable railroad rates In the cast and a
good demand has helped out the cash mar
ket for corn , so that at the present tlmo the
cash price Is higher than the December op-
tlon. Holders of corn In consequence are
flhe'.llng It out and shipping It to market as
fast as possible. All the big elevator com-
panics and other large holders of cribbed |
corn nro at work , and It Is going forward
as fast as the railroads can handle It. A
( rood many hundred thousand bushel lots ,
were shipped out of the state last we-ek.
Considerable , old corn Is still held by the
farmers , and If prospects for the new crop .
continue good they will let considerable of I
It go , At the. present tlmo the corn crop I
is reported by gruln men as being In good
condition , with a largely Increase acreage ,
over last year. So far It has been a little
too wet In the eastern section of the state
and too dry In the western part , but for all 1
that the crop In moat localities la looking
well.
At South Oinnlin.
Business at the stock yards was In an en
tirely satisfactory condition , not only last
week , but for the whole month. Cattle re
ceipts showed some falling off as compared
with some years , but the receipts of hogs
were the largest for the. month of Juno In
the history of the yards. Large as the re
ceipts have been they have been none too
large for the. hog buyers , and ai : last month
the market was active and the demand very
good. According to nil reports the supply
of hoga in the country tributary to this
market Is larger than ever before , and the
prospects ore that the. receipts will continue
very Inrsn for the balance of the season.
At the naiuo time a good many other mar
kets are showing a. fulling off as compared
with last year in the receipts of hogs.
1'rlees on all kinds of live stock last week
were entirely satisfactory to the sellers. ,

CHICAGO , July l.-In view of the fact
that no session of the Board of Trade will
be held until Wednesday , wheat today
showed a turprlslng degree of strength and
closed at an advance of l tc for September' .
Strong cables , poor threshing returns and
Improved outside demand were factors In
creating a strong and active market. Corn
advanced Ufo-Hc ; oats closed unchanged ;
provisions advanced 2H012 c.
Wheat opened strong. Liverpool quoted
a closing advance of about V4d and a good
many continental orders for wheat were In
the market , not only for the cash , article ,
but for futures. There were also reports
of damage to crops on the continent , Franco
reporting continued tieuvy rains , whllo the
wetithcr wo > * . also reported In England us
wet. General conditions In Europe wcro
said to be favorable for a good demand for
American wheat. 'Iho strong tone of for
eign advices was readily responded to by
the local market , whlcn was well loaded
down with short wheat , and though domes
tic receipts wcro silll heavy and July de
liveries large , the bulls at once assumed
the aggressive and retained the upper hand
througnout the short Saturday session.
The market at linn was dull. It always
Is previous to u holiday , but us the session
advanced 'trading , In view of the natural
tendency to bo us near even on trades as )
possible over the holidays , became remark
ably active. Commission houses were good
buyers and this renewal of outside support
had a good deal of Inlluencc In determining-
the course of the market. Reports of win
ter wheat threshing In general were con-
( Irmutory of the claims of damage to the
crop , but In the northwest conditions were
said to be favorable for growing wheat.
Minneapolis ) und Duluth reported arrivals
of 524 cars , compared with 815 last week.
Chicago receipts were 156 cars , thirty-three
of contract grade : total primary receipts
were 783,000 bushels ; Atlantic port clear
ances of wheat and Hour were equal to 3S7-
000 bushels ; July deliveries aggregated over
1,000,000 bushel- , but they fell largely Into
shippers' hands. There was a moderate
cash demand here , about 130,000 bushels be
ing reported told. There was quite general
covering by shorts toward the end of the
session and the market ) moved steadily up
ward. September sold as high as 75Hc and
closed strong at 75H@75Hc.
Corn was steady but dull early. Sym
pathy with wheat sustained prices In the
face of continued largo receipts and favora
ble weather ; later the market became quite
active and a general advance took place.
The strength or wheat was a factor nil day ,
but the Missouri state report , putting the
corn condition at only 4 , ihad Its effect.
The cash demand also showed Improvement ;
the local bull crowd bought liberally ; re
ceipts were 1,126 cars ; September ranged at
from 34V4c to 34 ® 34Hc and closed W@c
( higher at 34H@34c.
Oats was extremely dull , but steady. Be
yond a scalping trade little was done and
the strength of other grains had little effect
on prices. The cash demand was rather
light , while crop reports were favorable.
Receipts were liberal 114 cars. September
ranged from 21o to 21c and closed un
changed at 21ic.
Provisions showed considerable strength.
Hog prices were hlg-her and there was
come covering by. shorts on renewed talk
of a strike at the yards. The market
opened higher and advanced still more ,
closing firm at about top prices. At the
close September pork was 12Wc higher at
$8.57 % , September lard 2&S5c higher at
J5.22HfT5.25 and September ribs 5@7V4c higher
at J4.5.
Estimated receipts for Monday : Wheat ,
100 cars ; corn , 1,176 cars ; oats , 330 cars ;
hogs , 33,000 head.

the publication of the May staf.-ment , show-
of Jlop.OOO .i"6 ! ? , Union " Paclrto ? urnlus stocks for the enjoyed month
the benefit of a strong showing In the
May statement as did Norfolk & Western ,
the former rose over a point and the latter
about as much. The ? arly strength was
largely confined to the leading railroad
stocks , but became general after the publi
cation of the bank staUment on covering by
ehorta , who were disappointed at the failure
of the market to weaken. There was early
weakness In the specialties on the Injunc
tion against the payment of dividends on
Federal Steel and on talk of an Imminent
strike on street railway llnei , but dl -
clalmera of on Intention to strike by labor
leaders and the strength of Sugar on the
decline In raw sugars helped thU depart
ment as did the strength of Anaconda. Con
solidated Gas was strong on talk of a Hit-
tlement of the rate war. International
Paper and American Smelting weakened
charply In the late transactions. Bonds
were moderately active and strong.
In the ordinary course of events the opera
tions In stocks and securities are Influenced
ty the expected rather than by political
conditions. Except when come sudden and
unforeseen event U precipitated , the course
of prices always rtneeta a forecast and as
far In the future as the operator Is willing
to rey ; on hl judgment to penetrate. Thus 5
the professional operators sold utocki last 1
wek on the well-grounded belief that the
course of events would Inevitably lead tea
a Mueeze In the money market before July ,
,1. ThU week , even though this expected 1
event had not y t ocvurred , sleek operators
began to look beyond to the period of
Hbundnnt money whlth will come with the
disbursement of July Int.rest nnd dividends
and have bought storks In anticipation of
Hint condition. Operators who sold short
last week have also been buying this week
to cover their contracts and take their
prollt * . thus helping on the rising tindcncy.
But the mo t important Influence of tha
week was the strength of New York Cen
tral , corroborative as It was of the rumors
of impending consolidations of Vandertmt
railroad Interests.
This comes under the head of sudden and
unforeseen events , though the long contin
ued firmness of New Vork Central at n.
price above a fair Investment value for a 4
per cent stock has clearly Indicated a faith
by inritlers of comtng favorable develop
ments. The successful results of the nurg-
Ing of the Lake Shore and the Michigan
Central In the New York Central are a
ready becoming apparent In higher em-
clsncy and lower operating expenses , me
railroads In which the Vandcrbllt holdings
are Influential form so vast a ramification
that a comprehensive plan of consolidation ,
such as W. K. VanderblH is said to favor.
Is no less feasible , considering the condi
tions and tendencies of the times , than was
the original through I'.ne from New iork to
Chicago achieved by Commodore Vanderbi t.
! The widespread belief that the present Van-
derbllt interests contemplate a transcon
tinental line from Boston to the Paclllc was
reflected this week In the sympathetic
strength with New York Central of Chicago
& Northwestern. St. Paul & Omaha , Union
Padllc , Oregon Short Line securities and
Oregon Navigation. The strength n New
York Central was the most Inliuentla foe-
tor In Inducing the buying of railroad
stocks In anticipation of the rise which \ \ all
! street traders bellevo is sure to come aftur
July 1. The much improved condition of
the country's crops and the springing up of
a. cash demand for wheat and corn from do-
1 mestlc sources and also for export have also
1 been influenced. The large grain movement
being added to the already heavy frslght
movement of merchandise of all classes nas
brought the current railroad earnings up 10
ThoTuy Itate'menuof ' earnings also show
some striking reductions In operating ex-
liendlturcs for railroads In the southwest
ern region , which mark the conclusion of
extraordinary outlays for betterment wnlch
have been In progress for some tlmo ana
whloh were charged to operating expenses.
Railroads In the northwestern region in
contrast seem to bo putting their heavy
gross earnings Into the property , but they
Showed no fall In the value of their securi
ties on that account. The altitude of London -
don toward American securities has been
i very favorable ; buying from that source
1 .has been large during the week and has
I made sufiiclcnt sterling exchange to cfTec-
i tually break the exchange market and pre-
I elude the likelihood of further shipments
I of gold ,
I Money rates have been high in London ,
I oven with credits extended to the open market -
! ket by the Bank of England of upward of
1 J20,000,000. resulting In a sharp decline In
the bank'b already low reserve. But there ,
as In New York , confidence is felt in nn
abundance of money after July 1. The Bank
of France ihas also enormously expanded
Its loans for the relief of the market and
the Bank of Germany has pursued the same
course. The Industrial activity In GermtUfiy
continues unabated , the conditions In the
Iron and steel trade being similar to those
In this country. But there speculation In
stocks of Iron and steel companies Is oTi
a large scale , whllo here the securities of
these companies have fallen Into almost
complete neglect and sag away In spUe of
trtrength in the general market. But the
rate of capitalization In Germany is low
enough to allow dividends of 15 per cent
last year and this on some of the steel
shares , while the plaint of holders Is that
they were not Increased 10 per cent this
year. The Industrials generally have been
In disfavor In the New York market during
the week and the movement In railroad
stocks has separated Itself from the Indus1-
trlals. Profit-taking was Induced to some
extent by the stiffening of the money rate ,
but liquidation was not on a large scale and
the standard railroad stocks ended near the
highest. There has been an enlarged bus
iness In bonds and an advancing tendency
In prices.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says : Money was easy
today on the turn of the half year ; dis
counts also were sha'ded. The bank bought
40,000 bar gold and sold 50,000 In French
coin.

CATTLE As usual ou a Saturday the
market was without much Interest owing
1o the light receipts of all kinds of cattle.
The few cattle h = ro sold , and prices , while
not as good as the best prices early yester
day , were better than the extreme low
prices at ycsurday's close , so that there
was no marked change in any direction.
The cattle market this week was In ex
tremely good condition the most of the
time. The week start.d out with a good
market , and on Tuesday It was way up , the
day being really the best of the week. On
Wednesday some cattle did not sell quite BO
strong , but still the market was good , nnd
the same was true on Thursday. On Friday
the lirenk came nnd nt the close O'f the
week It Is safe to say that values generally
are lOiflac lower than the extreme high
day. The cattle this week were on un
average of very good quality and that fact
hclpd out the market a good deal and made
prices look high on paper at least.
Cows and heifers were good sellers all the
week , but under the Influence of the break
In fat cattle they eased oft toward the last
of the week. There Is one thing that ship
pers should bear In mind and that is that
there Is a wide distinction between dry lot
stuff and cattle that show grass. Good fat
bulls and good stock bulls were good sellers
all the week , but common bulls had to sell
lower. Stock cattle were in light receipt
and comparatively llttlo business was do
ing In that department. Representative

HOGS Values thla morning were gen
erally 5c higher and th3 market active at
the advance so that most everything sold
In good season. Some of the late trains
which did not come In until after the rush
to buy was over with did not meet with
quite such strong reception , still buyers
took them and the market generally was
Be higher , as Indicated above. Considering
that It was the last < my of the week the
market was exceedingly Rood and entirely
to the liking of sellers.
The hogs sold very largely at J3.70fJ3.75 ,
with some choice at $3.8o. Yesterday , It
will be borne In mind , the popular
1 price for mixed loads w s $3.C7'.t. with a
$3.75 top. The hogs today sold ut the high-Hi
point touched since the latter part of
April , when the market was about the same
as it was today.
An active demand has given the hog market -
ket a boost upward this week and it hus
befn a long time since the trade has been
In a more healthy condition. Values were
higher every day and at the close of the
week the market was lOc higher than nt
the close of ths previous week. At the
same time the receipts have been large , us
will be noted from the table of receipts , but
none too large to m-et the requirements of
local packers. Each days arrivals have
mot with ready Hale. Representative cali-a ;
