or very satisfactory proportions. A gnat
many buyer arrived on the market truin
nil over the country tributary to this
murkot nnd proved to bo very liberal pa
trons. Heavy buyers from the far west, In
particular, were noticeable and they se m d
to place larger orders as u rula than tbuao
from nearby. According to u.l report,
conditions In tho far wtst arc exceptionally
favorable thin year and everyone Is count
ing' on doliiK a big business In that tectlon
of tho country this fall and winter. Ne
braska merchants, however, are also l.i
food shape and there Is no doubt but what
irom now on Jobbers will about have their
hands full In attending to the wains of
their customers. Dry goods Jobbers ami
wholesale milliners In particular will huo

hundreds of merchants who in tho p..s

and placed their orders, saying that they
could do as well or better lti this city in
in any other market In tho country. T.iKing
everything Into consideration, thero l. cei

more than that, there Is every reason mr
thinking that retahers throughout the ci.un
try tributary to this market wlil u.so e.iji y
a nice business.
The same as was noted one or two weeks
ago, the markets aru holding Just atom
steady, with tho exception of gnctrl-s and
hardware. Urocerles are ml. I advancing,
owing to tho drouth, which curtailed ths
pack of fruits and vegetables, ami tin- hard
ware market U unsettled because or tho
strike, which has shut r.ft the production of
many staple lines of goods. Just wlir-ie
prices will llnally land is, of course, purely
problematical und no one seems to be in
clined to mako predictions on ilmt sube t
A very noticeable feature of tho busln. ss
situation at tho present tlmo Is the excu lent
condition of collections In nearly all lines,
furniture men say that the last of July
nnd the first of August their collec Ions
came In in better shape than ever li foro
at that tlmo of year. Jobbers In other Uiips
mako Just about tho same reports, so that
tho natural conclusion Is that ictal.ers havo
been having a very satisfactory trade and
are not at nil h:ird pressed lor ready money
with which to meet their bills.
bluirii Advances In 1 rocorlcx.
Tho prospects for a big demand for all
staple lines of groceries and the fear that
there Is to bu a marked shortage In a num
ber of lines owing to tho dry weather are
causing prices to go up at a rapid rate.
Since last report nearly everything In thy
wuy of canned goods lias advanced more or
less. Small traits havo taken tho most
radical Jump of all, as quotations niw
range 'JWj'Ja centH per dozen higher than
they were a week ago. Corn lias been
marked up 50 10 cents per dozen and toma
toes that a week ago wetc selling for about
05 cents per dozen are now held at 51. oj and
VI. 111. In the saino way string beans have
advanced 6Jjl0 cents per aozen. Thero
KcSms to be more buyers than Hellers and
It can safely be said that tho outlook lor
tuture corn nnd tomatoes is very discourag
ing. Unlavorablo weather from this tlmo
on or an early trust will do n great deal to
ward destroying what thero Is left of crops,
111 which case tho pack will bo extremely
light and prices correspondingly light. At
the present tlmo it Is estimated that even
with good weather for the remainder of tho
nenson tho pack will not exceed 23 per cent
of what It was a year ago.
Tho dried fruit market Is, of course, af
fected in Just nbout tho samo way ns
canned goods nnd prices aro advancing
moro or less on nearly all lines. Tho out
look for tho California peach and prune
crop ts not nearly as eucuuraglng as It
was thirty days ago and tho output will In
all probability not come up to earlier esti
mates by a wide margin. Thero will lie a
big demand from tho east for California
dried fruits this year, owing to the damage
done In tho east to tho fruit crop, so that
Indications aro very favorable for high
prices throughout tho coining season.
Farinaceous goods have shown little or
no chaiiKo since last report, practically all
lines being quoted Just about tho same.
Tho coffee market Is also unchanged and
tho samo may bo said of tea. The demand
for sugar is considerably heavier than It
was a week ago, but prices aro tho samo.
WutcltliiK (he Strike- Situation.
Hardwaro men are, of course, watching
with a great deal of Interest tho progress
of the strike against tho great steel com
bination. As previously stated, unless a
settlement Is reached In the near future
thero will bo n shortage of goods such as
has not been experienced In tho history of
tho trade, Heforo tho strike was instituted
mills wero unable to keep up with their
orders and thero wns very littles stock on
hand and now that tho production lias vory
nearly stopped entirely tho surplus will not
lost long and n shortage In many or tho
staple lines is imminent. 1'rlcos for that
reason aro very llrm all along tho lino nnd
It Is certain that any change In the near
futuro wMI bo in tho direction of higher
quotations, A big demand for hardwaro is
looked for in nil sections of tho country
this fall, which will, of course, mako tho
shortage all tho moro pronounced. Hut
whether prices reach a much higher level
or not of course depends upon how soon tho
strike ts settled and for that reason hard
ware men are watching tho . bituuton
closely.
Dry t.ooila Ilioi-rx Arriving.
Thero wcro a good mnny nrrlvals re
ported last week at tho different dry goods
houses of this city. Nearly all sections of
Nebraska wero represented nnd also a
Kreat many buyers came In from the far
west. Without exception they seemed to
be In excellent spit Its nnd all predicted a
good fall and winter trade. .More than
that, they backed lip their predictions with
good substantial orders, which would Indi
cate that they have considerable confidence
In their own Judgmrnt. Traveling men also
sny that the feeling out In tho country Is
good and thnt more merchants aro count
ing on coming to Omaha this year to buy
their supplies than thoy ever saw before.
A great many are going to m.ilto their llrst
trip to this market this season and if satis
ileil will be permanent patron.
V,ier" lH. "lhlng particularly new to bo
said of tho market situation. All cotton
goods aro still being held at good firm
prices, as tho outlook for a bis cotton crop
Is now by no means encouraging, while tho
prospect for nn enormous consumption of
cntton goods, both at homo and abroad. Is
very flattering. That being tho caso It
would seem as though prices would cer
tainly go no lower, while they may seek a
higher level,

good many orders for fall and winter stock.

FEAR THE GOVERNMENT CROP REPORT
Corn StroiiK nnd Active from Belief
of Itn Dniiinge lu West Onts
lliilllsli with Other
Grains.
CHICAGO, Aug. 10.-Fears of a bullish
government crop report, nn Improved ex
port demand, higher cables nnd small re
ceipts caused an upturn In wheat today and
September closed 4c higher at 71,871ic.
The same conditions prevailed In corn and
September gained '.Jc Oats followed corn
nnd closed Ufy-Sc higher. Provisions ruled
stendy In sympathy with grains and closed
with an ndvancc of 7Hyi!V4c.
Wheat opened strong und He higher at
71B'71',ic for September. Higher cables und
small receipts wero the strengthening In
fluence. Trading was rather slow, how
ever, during the first hour und the price
sagged to 71c. At that point the enormous
export demand created a buying move
ment for the long account, A report thnt
the government crop report would show a
decided decrease in tho acreage of spring
wheat sent tho shorts to cover and Sep
tember advanced quickly to 71WI71c.
Protlt-taklng caused a setbuck of 4c. The
decline wns checked by good outside buy
ing and the market soon took another up
turn and ngaln touched 7Uilf71c. There
wns llttlo trading during tho Intter part of
tho session and prices sagged off to 71aW
71Hc, where It closed.
Receipts at Chicago wore 20S cars, 167 of
whldh were new, Minneapolis and Duluth
received 2u9 cars, against 2M the corre
sponding day a year ago. Aggregate of
the day's receipts western primary markets
was 775,000 bushels, against l,((27,OuO for the
same day last year. Clearances of wheat
and flour nt Atlantic ports were equal to
1,324,(0) bushels, The week's exports from
all ports weto estimated at ll.OOO.OuO bushels.
Corn was strong and active. A general
belief among traders of tho serious condi
tion of the crop was the chief considera
tion. A report that the crop In Illinois
would show u condition of but 25 points for
tho southern district lent color to tho ex
pectation. Cables were higher. Local ic
celpts, 105 cars, against ICS last year. Sep
tember opened VVU-bc up at 5)if(o!)V(ic, then
advanced to O-S'.-ic and closed at 5&Hc
Outs shared tho bullish feeling which de
veloped In other grulns. There was a good
commission house trade. Local receipts
were 392 cars, against 437 a year ngo. Sep
tember opened unchanged to '-c up at 33U
y35N.o, touched 35xc, rose to 36c and closed
ut 35ft c.
Provisions wero llrm, helped by tho ad
vance lu grain. Higher prices for hogs
and heavy buying by puckers added to the
strength. September pork opened un
changed nt $13.83, advanced to $14 nnd
closed ut $13.D7H. September lard opened
2'.(5c up at $S.C7V4 and closed at $S.72',4.
September ribs opened 2Ho higher nt $7.t0

NEW YORK STOCKS AM) 1IOXIIS.
Loudon Prices Cause Rnlsc In' Rail
road Stocks.
NEW YORK. Aug. lO.-Hlgher prices from
London wero reflected In a fairly good tone
for railroad stocks nt the opening, but
smnll gains wero soon wiped out and prices
dipped well below yesterday's close for Im
portant stocks on a renewal of professional
selling. Tho Interest centered In the
monthly government crop report nnd the
prospect of some Important developments
In the stock situation next week caused
a large diminution In the volume of busi
ness. Tho paucity of tho demand helped
to Increase the downwnrd tendency, which
wus most marked In tho grangers, Paclllcs,
coalers nnd southwesterns. .Missouri Pa
cific nnd kindred stocks wero Influenced by
denlHls of recent rrports of tho Impending
absorption of Mexlcnn railroads. As on tho
two days preceding Missouri Pacific spurted
up sharply at the close, the final figure to
day bringing It to yesterday's level. Hut
llttlo of interest nttonded tho fluctuations
In the Unled States Steel stocks today, their
movement being only fractional, but hull
eating more support for tho common than
for tho preferred, the latter ending , lower.
Iho bank statement, while less favorable
than anticipated, was without any decided
effect on tho market. The Increase In loans
of $i,9IS,70i) wns not readily explained, and
It decreased surplus holdings $l,:l2.4im. The
closing wus Irregular and almost llfclers.
United States bonds were ull unchanged
on tho call prices for the week.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
financial cablegram says: Tho stock mar
ket was almost empty todny and Idle to n
degree. Domestic shares were neglected
and American stocks merely held their
opening prices. Thero was a slight Inquiry
for Atchison, both common nnd preferred.
Tho Rank of England has bought i.T3,(0
gold In bars. Money rates aro a shade
easier.

CATTLE There were not enough cattle
here today to make a murket. for ttio
week there has been a god supply of cattle,
u marked Increase being noted over last
week, but there Is Btlll a decrease as com
pared with tho corresponding week of last
your, as a gtunco at the table given above
will show. ,
Tho tendency tho tlrst part of tho week
was to pound down values on all kinds of
killers. Good to cholco beef steers suffered
along with the others, but since Wednesday
tho tendency has been upward, and any
thing cholco Is now ns high as It was at
the close of last week and In some cases
higher. The medium nnd common MndJ.
such ns will come In competition with the
westerns, are, If anything, u little lower.
Quite a good mnny western rangers arrived
this week that wcro good enough for killers,
and packers seemed to bo anxious for them
and paid very satisfactory prices. Anyth.ng
choice would probably sell from $4.5) to
$4.73, but they would havo to be fat.
Tho better grades of cows and heifers
have not shown much chango this week
nnd mny bo quoted nbout steady. The
medium grades, however, aro 10ftl6o lower,
while dinners havo held Just nbout steady.
The quality of tho offerings this week ns
a whole hnt not been very good, which
mado tho sales on paper look rather low.
Uulls, calves and stags are ull Just about
steady with last week.
There has been a decided Improvement
this week In tho demand for cholco yenning
stock cattle. As tho supply was limited
prices advanced 105120c. The heavyweight
feeders, however, aro not selling nt nil
well owing to the fact that no one In the
country seems to want them. Thero havo
been very few of that kind of cattle hero
this week, and If many arrived It Is thought
they would sell lower.
HOGS There was Just a fair run of h gs
hero today, and tho market opened fairly
active and strong on tho better gnuKs.
The general run of mixed hogs sold largely
at $5,75, with tho heavier and bettor grades
going at $5.77H. Tho choice heavyweights
sold from $5.i0 to $5.S0. Light mixed hogs
brought from $5.70 to $5.72V4, and from that
down. Packers seemed to havo nulto lib
eral orders and as a result tho bulk of tho
offerings wero out of first hands In good
season. Tho bulk of nil tho sales could hi
quoted nt $5.70i5.77H. as against $j,70tff5.7
yesterday. Thero was not much chnuge In
tho market from start to finish, th uh
tho close was, perhaps, not quite as active
owing to the fnct that It was largely tho
lightweights that wcru left.
Tho receipts for the week have been quite
liberal, a gain being noted both over last
week and over tho corresponding week of
last year. Tho demand, however, from local
packers has been In good shape, but still
tho tendoncy of prices has been downward.
Monday was tho high day of tho we k,
when tho nverago cost was $5.84. "Wednes
day was the low day, when the a vera go
cost wont as low as $3.65. Slnco that tlmo
values have tended upward and tho week
closed 2HQ5c lower than tho close of last
wcck. ttepreseniauvo saica:

SHEEP Thero wero practically no sheep
on sale today with which to mako a test of
the mnrket. Knr tho week tho supply hm
been rather light, a decrease being notice!
both ns compared with last week and asj
with the corresponding week of last year
The week opened with tho market on all
grades of sheep In bad shapo, and on Mnn
dny prices renrlied the low day of the year
Since thut time, however, tho demand h s
Improved, nnd owing to the light rec-Jpts
prices have advanced sharp y. Ab ton
pared with last Friday tho market on good
to choice wethers and yearlings Is quote l
3frf(40e higher. Ewes have also advanced,
though not quite ns much ns wetlurs, the
advance being covered by about Ifc, It
should bo noticed, however, that the de
mand Is for the better grades, and that
the common to fair stuff Is neglected nnl
Is not advancing ns much as tho goo l to
choice.
The lnmh market was alto In bad sdinp'
the tlrst of the week, but the tendency 1 ns
been upward slnco that time, and th- mar
ket may be quoted strong to lie hlghir.
Iiambft weighing from a to 70 pounds and
fnt ought to sell at rUht around S5',
liiimbs of that weight that nro thin will
not sell ns well.
Quite a few feeders are coming en the
mnrket nnd nt the present time the demand
Is equal to the supply at the price qunt d
below. It should be noticed, however, tl at
those prices nre rather low and do not
offer much Inducement for shippers to mnr
