Intlnti of I'll 11 Order Scare-.
Huslness men In all lines have had rather
nn anxious week In this section of the
country. 1'rcns reports from nearly all
parts of the country tributary to this mar
ket huve told of the extreme heat and dry
weather and the consequent damage to the
corn crop. As Omaha wholesalers and
manufacturers are very largely dependent
upon the outcome of the corn crop, It la
not to be wondered ut that they havo
been a trlflo disturbed by the general dry
weather. It la to bo noticed, however, that
conditions Improved as tho week advanced.
Whllu there were no general rains In Ne
braska, stilt theie were a greut many local
showers that havu done an Immense
amount of good, In surrounding states
considerable rain hus fallen, so that on
tha whole tho outlook is better than It
was a week ugo. According to tho most
authentic reports tho damage, done In Ne
brabkn hu3 been greatly exaggerated, au
up to the present time the general crop Is
in excellent condition and able to with
Mtand a long Blege of hot wouther. Thoso
who are best Informed on tho general situ
atlon are by no means illscouriiged, but, on
the contrary, aru as conlldent us ever that
J""-Ii . 1 Omaha and surrounding terri
tory will break all previous records this
coming season.
There Is no disputing the fact, however,
IP.1 ,.,riluo the present time Is quiet.
Retailers are alarmed ana arc not buying
. .ru.,n", ml tnc w,t they Kenerally do
at this mji of yenr. Tinvetlng men aru
making their usual rounds, but the general
tendency seems to be for merchants to
stand them oft until tho next trip, when
more will bo known nbout thr corn crop.
Neither are tliero many merchants arriving
on the market, and, In fact. Iniit week was
one of the quietest seen In some time In
that respect. That merchants are not
' "siijeiieii, nowever, is shown by thu '
fact that local Jobbers have not received 1
enough cancellations of orders to be worthy !
iii-u. , ' .J'""" 'ewiiier.i arc UClliniiy
frightened tho cancellations come rolling
in at a rate that can leavo no doubt as
to the conditions existing lu the country,
Thc whole sltuntlon ut the present time Is
summed up by saying that merchants are
simply waiting for developments.
During the present lull In Immediate busi
ness local Jobbers ure taking advantage of
the opportunity to rush out their advnnce
orders. I-all stocks nie now quite com
plete, so that thu shipping Is progressing
in good shape.
Market conditions arc very much tho name

were brought about by dry weather, out of

.nl.TV lrlccs-.1 Susnr is one ot thu most
notable exceptions. The market was more

Put while Immediate business last week
as quiet. Jobbers were working their mon
overtime getting out tho ndvanco orders
As previously mentioned, they are nnxlnus
to get those out of the way owlntf to the
fact thnt they conlldontly expect an mor
mons trade a little later In tho season and
they want to be In shape to handle that
with promptness and regularity.
Thc market has not changed much during
tho week, although buyers who nre well
Informed consider American prints n d
four-yord brown cottons as being under tho
market and consequently sales of that chts
of goods havo been unusually largo of lat .
No ChtuiKc In I.rntlier Omuls.
Hoot and shoe Jobbers also report t-ado
as being none too rushing. There has been
no special feature to tho trade, as al that
Is going on Is the tilling of n few tiz nK
up orders, the tamo as usual ln July, nnd
also tho shipping out of advance orders
for fall, IxjciiI houses am getting a good
start on their advance orders and hope ti
havo the bulk of them out of the way 'n
good foxs,on. What has been said if thi
leather goods trndo applies equally well to
the rubber goods trade,
Fruits nml Produce.
There has been a fairly good demand for
fruits the puBt week. Lemons In particu
lar have been In good request, but mere
lias been no change In prices. California
fruits nre also selling In Just about t o
same notches they were a week ago. Hasp
berries and blackberries are still on th
market, but they uro arriving ln sma I
quantities and are gradually advannins.
The most noticeable feature of tho week
was the higher prices on a number of
vrgetables, cnuxed by dry weather farther
south nnd the damage done to crops. Po
tatties are now selling up to 90c per bushel,
which Is considerably higher than they
were a week ago. Thc ptlce at whl h
the various lines are selling will be found
In another column.
Commission men aro still having a great
deal of trouble with their eggs cn account
of tho extremely hot weather, and say ttat

Anxlelj- Oter AVesterii Crop Sltuntlon
Cnrrlrs Prices lloivn,
NEW YORK, July 20.-Anxletv over th9
weiitcrn crop situation overbore nil other
considerations In the stock market today
and carried prices down through thc at
tempts of the lnsldo Interests In cer.nln
stocks to support the market. Thc closing
prices were near the lowest nnd the market
was active nnd weak at the last. Tne on y
modification of the weakness was due to
the buying to cover nnd take profits by tho
bearish traders, who saw handsome profits
accrued as a result of tho dec. Ine late es
tcrday and today. These bearish operators
havo been suppoced by Wall street to ha
resident chiefly In the west and to be con
cerned In bulling grain as well as bearltu
stocks. The feeling gained force In Wall
street today that this double campaign has
more basis ln fact thnn was believed yes
terday and the western contingent received
large reinforcements from eastern sources.
The supporters of the market matin head
way agnlnst tho bears ln the first hour,
when vigorous efforts were mado to drive
the bears to cover. There was a tesump
Hon of pool operations In Southern Pacltlo
and that stock, as well as St. Paul and
Missouri rnclfle. were left well over last
night. Aggressive selling by the benrj
Immediately developed, baed on the r
ports of new damage to the corn crop nnd
reports of extensive damage to the spring
wheat crop, now first heeded ln Wall street.
Another attempt was made to rally tin
market on the strong bank statement. In
which n largo loan contraction co-operateJ
with n substantial Increase In cash to
recuperate the surplus of the bank. How
ever, higher bids for stock brought out
such largo offerings that the bulls woio
obliged to desist and prices fell by rapid
stages practically up to the close. St. Paul
fell 4 points under last night Rock Island
4, Northwestern 8. Atchison 3H. Atchison
preferred 2 and others of tho Pnclllc and
southwestern groups, as well as leading
southern and trunk line rnllronds and spe
cialties from 1 to 2 points, Some of the
less prominent stocks showed large losses.
The united States Steel stocks wcr largely
dealt In, but moved nnrrowly nnd were itup
ported, the common lo'lng only V nnd the
preferred closing higher The pecu'atlvo
contingent rests grent confidence on tho
assumption thnt organised nrrnngements
nre In force, bicked by the prlnclpnl capi
talistic group., to wipport tho market,
under tho direction of tho most forceful
nnd succefsful market leader and operator
of the day. Railroad bonds, however,
moved In sympathy with, but less widely,
than stocks.
United States refunding 2s, 3s and old 4s
advanced and the new 4s U Jcr cent
below the closing call of lust week.
The Commercial Advertiser's Lo-dw
financial cablegram says Attendance on
the floor of tho Stock exchange wn. rmall
and stocks were lifeless toiay. The Amer
ican department wan unsettled ami a few
additional clearance sales, following tho
recent embarrassment of small opeinto s,
sent prices below parity These over, th
tone hardened. Atchison, Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific being tho best failures,
but tho fluctuations possess nractlcallv n'
significance. Call money still rules nt li
per cent nnd discounts at 2 per cent.

says: "The statement of the New York
Associated banks Inst Saturday showed,
from the borrowers' point of view, tho
gratifying Increase In surpluii reservo of
JS,22O,O0o, cnrrylng this Item to J2l.029.375, or
close to the figures recorded at the begin
ning of June, The present position of the
banks ln this respect Is suclNas to relieve
apprehension on their part of being seri
ously Incommoded through a withdrawal
by their correspondents of cash to an ox
tent sufficient to compel restrictions In
loaning In order to maintain their percen
tage of reserves, From present Indications
tho banks will continue to gain In cash
through subtreasury operations and le
celpts of gold from tho Pncltlc coast assay
offices, there being about Jl.SOO.Onu of the
latter which will probably arrive during
the coming week. The outlook for thu
present favors easy money,"

CATTLE Thero were practically no cat
tle on sale today to maku 11 test of tho
market, as Is generally tho case on Sat
urday. Tor the week thero has been a
fairly liberal supply, receipts being about
tho same as they wero a week ngo, with a
slight Increase over the corresponding week
of last year. It Is to be noticed, however,
that tho big end of tho supply was received
tho first two days and that since that time
receipts havo been very light.
At tno close of the week good to cholco
beef cattle aro higher than they were a
week ago by fully 104tl5c und In some cases
more. The market broke badly on Monday
tind Tuesday in tho face of liberal receipts
at all points and the favorable outlook for
a continued heavy supply. Rains since that
time, however, have Improved the situation
In tho country and cut down receipts, so
that over slnco Tuesday prices havu ad
vanced nt a rapid rate, the week closing 40
(50c higher than on Tuesday.
Tho cow market has followed much tho
samo course as tho steer market, though
fluctuations perhaps havo not been qulto as
radical. Oood to cholco cows can safely
bo quoted a quarter higher than they wero
on Tuesday and fully steady with the closa
of tho previous week. There have been a
great muny very common old cows coming
in of late such as sell from J 1.00 to J2.00.
which makes the sales on paper look very
low. The common to fair cows havo Im
proved somewhat since Tuesday, but still
they are hardly back to where they were
a week ago.
Good bulls have not changed much all
tho week, but the common ones are If any
thing a little lower. The same is true of
veal calves and stags.
Stockcra and feeders were almost unsal
able on Monday nnd Tuesday, but since
that time they have Improved at a rapid
rate and are now 23 40c better than tho low
time. There was a good demand from the
country the latter part of the week and
speculators sold out practically all they
had on hand and could have disposed of
muny moro of the right kind If they had
hnd them. The demand seems to bo for
the better grades, tho common kinds of all
weights being neglected.
HOGS There was not n heavy run of
hogs and an favorable reports wero re
ceived from other points and the demand
on tho part of local packers was In good
shapo. the market ruled actlvo and 54t7o
higher, the grcntcst advance being on tho
good heavyweights. Tho bulk of the good
mixed hogs sold at J5.67 and J5.70, with
the better grades of heavy hogs going from
J5.72 to J5.F5. The light and common stuff
was neglected the same ns It has been ull
along and sellers found It very difficult to
dispose of that class of stuff. That kind
of nogs Bold toduy very largely from 15.60
to J5.65, The close was very slow and weak,
as only the light stuff was left, which none
of tho Dnckers were at all anxious for.
Tho supply of hogs the past week has
been very liberal ut ull market points. A
big gain Is noted over last week and also
over the corresponding week of last year,
as thc table of receipts at the head of the
column will shew. Not since the week end
ing May 25 have ub many hogs arrived on
this market, there being 67,483 at that time.
In view of the heavy receipts prices, of
course, went tumbling, and on Wednesday,
which was the low day of the week, prices
were 30c lower than on Friday. Since that
tlmti the market ha advanced, so that the
week closed only about 17c lower than
last week. Representative sales:

SHEEP There were no sheen offered to
day to make a test of the mnrket. Tho
sunnly for the week has been falrlv liberal.
a gain having been made over both last
week and the corresponding week of last
year.
Prices on good to cholco ewes and weth
ers havo not shown much change all thu
week and the market could bo quoted just
about steady. The commoner kinds, how
ever, have been neglected at ull times and
are a little lower than they were last week,
Tho lamb market, however, has broken In
bad shape at this point the same us at nil
others. As compared with the high point a
week ago values are now 75c to Ji.00 lower.
There have been quite a few feeders on
sale this week, but buyers seem to be
rather scarce both for sheep and for lambs,
The nrlces at which thev ara brlnr offered
It would teem should create a demand, ns
iney nre consioereq worth tne money.
The half fnt sheep, such as neither feed
ers nor packers want, are selllne verv
mean and commission men are advising
their patrons to hold that kind back If
possioie,

PURITAN TRUST COMPANY Uoston
HoldlngB, 11,400',; ucres In Heiiumont. Sour
Lake and Sulphur districts of the Texas
and Louisiana till fields.
Paying wells have been guaranteed to
the Company on three of Its properties.
Tho Heywood OH Company, which Ihib
already brought In four gushers on Its own
landB, sent to Pres. Towne, June 14, a
written offer to drill a hole on tho Splndle
Top Heights property of tho Kxport Oil ft
Pipe. Lino Co., guaranteeing to produce a
gusher.
A well known Pennsylvania oil expert ha-i
offered to drill a well on Its 100-uero tract.
In thc W. Dyke survey In Orange county,
to receive no pay unless he produces oil In
paying quantities,
One of the most successful drillers ln the
Renumont fields, who has nlreudy brought
In threo of the largest gushers In the uls
trlct, has mado the samu offer In reference
to the Company's lbo-acro trnct on the J.
8. Johnson survey tn Jefferson cojnty.
No stronger evidence could bo adduced
of the certain vnlue of theso properties
than tho above offers from pructlcal oil
men who are In thc oil business and know
the oil fields.
The EXPORT OIL & PIPE LINK CO.
will bo producing oil Just as quickly ns the
actual work of drilling can be accom
plished. It Is now sinking a well on Its
Snlndle-Top Hfdghte property nnd Is sum
of a gusher. Every well sunk on that hill
has proved a gusher, and the Export Co.'s
property ls lu tho center of the ring. Tho
16th gusher, thnt of the Manhattan Oil Co.,
brought In Jjly 12, Is only 15o feet from tha
Kxport land; the Lucas Is !Q feet south,
the Realty 500 feet southwest, tho Hoy
wood No, 2 tJOO feet west, tho Heywood No,
3 S00 foot southwest, tho Hogg-Swnyno 250
feet southeast.
Tho average How of these gushers on
Spindle-Ton Heights ls not less than 50.0u0
barrels dully. Tho Lucas well, (lowing 70,
000 barrels, ls estlmnted by C. F. .,
CuracrlBtl, tho world's leading oil expert,
as worth J12.5O0.OOOi and this Is Justified by
the production. Even ono 10,000-burrel well
would at this rate bo .worth nearly $2,n00,
000 a sum equal to the entire capitalization
of tho Export OH Co.. nnd tho Company
has nmplo room on Splndle-Top Heights
for lit least six gushers. Estimating them
each nt only lO.Oo) barrels flow, they would
pay back the Company's capital moro than
live times over,
And thlb, without reckoning nny of tho
