GENERAL MARKET IN HEALTHY CONDITION
Although I'nll tlnstiiess I. Mill l Full
Dlnul, Johhrr Arr Prrparlntr for
Sprint; Trntle unci n IVr le
men llnvc iirliic !iuiiilc,
There was no special attraction last week
to draw merchants to this city such as
wa tho case the week before, but never
theless there were a good many buyers on
tho market and local Jobbers did u very
nice business. There were In fact a Brent
many more retailers In town than they
anticipated, as they Imagined that prac
tically all who wero counting on comlnic
here at about this time came In during
the Ak-Sar-Uen festivities, It seems, how
ever, that a Breat many waited until after
tho carnival was over In order to avoid the
rush. It Is very evident from tho talk and
actions of Jobbers In practically all lines
that they are more pleased with the way
fall business Is golnt? nnd are very conn
dent regarding the future. , , .
The general market Is also In a n01,"";
lsfactory condition. Prices arc not tlurtu
atlng to any extent so as to make buyers
cautious, hut on tho contrary values seem
to be on a good solid foundation, with every
prospect of their remaining that way for
some little time to ("me. That fact gives
buyers an opportunity to anticipate their
wants to a considerable pxtent and makes
the total volume of business much larger
than It wojld otherwise be.
Actlvr Ilemntul for flroorrlm.
Wholesale grocers report trade as being
exceptionally heavy for this time of year.
Their traveling men are all meeting with
good success and llnd merchants more will
ing than usual to place liberal orders for all
staple lines, Since last report there nave
been a few ups and downs, but nothing
very startling has taken place.
Sugar Is quoted a trllle easier than It was
n week ago, owing probably to the fact
that the period o heavy consumption Is
rapidly approaching an end. The coffee
market Is about the samo as It was a week
ago.
Cheese has taken another upward move
ment owing t" the Increased buying, both
for home and foreign trade. Then, too, the
season when the hulk of the cheefe Is made
Is about closed. The advance for the week
nmojnts to a full 4 c-nt per pound nnd
the market Is now strong and netlvo and
higher prices at any time would causo no
surprise.
The rope market nlso advanced last wok
becauso of the higher prices ruling on the
raw fibre Sisal advanced 1 cent per pound
and Manila about ,i cent per pound.
In canned goods there Is also a tendency
toward higher prices. This Is particularly
true of tomatoes, which are 2'iij5 cents per
dozen higher than they were a week ngo.
The frosts which were experienced from
September IS to 20 did considerable damage
and, of course, the dry weather, which
lasted several weeks In the producing sec
tions of Mnrytand nnd Delaware, nlso cut
down the yield. The pack for those reasons
Is rather short. Corn and practically the
entire line of canned goods Is In a very
strong position and those who are posted
on the situation nre predicting higher
prices as soon as the period of heavy con
sumption sets In.
Dried fruits, farinaceous goods and most
other staple lines not mentioned nbov. nro
quoted Just nbout the same us they were a
week ago,
Knll Oooilis .MovIiik Treelj".
Fall goods with hardware Jobbers nro
now moving out at a rapid rate. All such
lines as stoves, stove boards, coal scuttles,
olbows. stovepipe, and In fact all kinds of
lines that come under the head of cold
weather goods are In active demand.
Traveling men find that merchants have
not nny great amount of that stock on
hand and as a result they find It compara
tively ensy to land good liberal orders. In
making comparisons with this time last
year It Is found that business U consider
ably heavier thnn It was then, which Is
saving a good deal.
There Is very llttlo to be said regarding
the condition of tho market, as there has
been practically no change In the general
situation since last report. There have been
no advances of much Importanco and
neither have there been nny declines, so
the market may bo snld to be in n good,
healthy condition, Those who ought to
know are very confident that prices will be
maintained nt their present level for sonn
tlmo to come, unless something out of tho
ordinary happens to change conditions ma
terially. (iettliiK Itenitr for ftiirlntr.
Although fall business with dry goods
Jobbers Is still In full swing, they are never
theless getting ready for spring business.
They have already started out several of
their special men with spring lines and ex
pect to hind a nice bunch of advance orders.
Men's shlits and women's shirtwaist. In
particular, are being offered to the trade
at the present time. It will not be long
now before nil the traveling men will bo
out with spring goods.
Immediate business Is still In n most
satisfactory condition. The city was full
of buyers last week nnd n great many
heavy ordeis were placed. A number of
large opening stocks nero also bought. Th s
has bean the most satisfactory, as well ns
tho largest, fall trade that wholesalers
have ever experienced nnd very naturally
they are greatly pleased.
There Is no market news this weok worthv
of mention, as prices on nearly all ilns
nre Just about the same ns they were at
last report. Cotton goods continue good
and firm and so far ns ran b" told, nt tho
present time, nre likely to remain that way
Indefinitely.
SprliiR Knntitrnr Xim Itendy.
Leather goods Jobbers are also preparing
for their spring trade. Their namplcs have
arrived and merchants will lie given an
opportunity to place their advance orders

ning considerably ahead of last year's rcrerd
and evetythlng at the present tlmo points
to a continued heavy demand throughout
the fall and winter.
The rubber goods trade Is no verv satis,
factory. There Is of course noth.rig very
rushing In footwear, as orders Hre mostly
placed, but there Is an excellent trade tn
mackintoshes and rubber clothing of nil
varieties. The ralnH of the last few weeks
have stirred up the trade on that class of
goods In good shape nnd the amount of
stock sold has gone far ahead of expecta
tions. Fruits mill Product.
While ther hns been no special feature
to the demand for fruits nnd produce dur
ing tho last few days, th.'re has been a

In progress, n large part of the usual In-

ueuvy diocks, running from l.cw to :..)
shares, of United States Steel, common and
preferred: New York Central and Un on

and the market generally went higher dur
ing me nrst hour. A number of obscure
stocks were brought forward, as vesterdov.
some new ones being added to yesterday's
list. Amalgamated Copper fluctuated tin
certainly, rising n small fraction at nrst
uiiu meeting support at early declines. The
Whole market snld off In the seenml hniir.
when traders took their profits, and Amal
gamated Copper fell 24 below Inst nlsht.
rhe andcrbllt8 were also notably nffected
by the renllzlng In the absence of the buy
ing from the sources which were responsi
ble for yesterdays strength. The market
closed weak.
ino bank statement showed a lnrger g.iln
in cash reserves than was anticipated, but

bursements nnd fur subscription to several
municipal bond issues during the wek
probably account f"r the offset to tho re
payment of loans by the stock market.
There has been .10 notable selling orcsiuro

CATTLE There wero only a few cattle
n tho yards today ana tnoso were not m
he kind to make a fair test of tno marKot.
The aupply for tho week has been of quite
liberal proportions, a goou gain iiniuib
been made over tho last several weeks,
but thero Is still a decrease as compared
with the corresponding week of lost year.
Coriifvd steers wero In good demand all
tho week nnd strong prices were paid for
anything at all desirable. As there were
hardly enough of them offered to go tho
rounds, everything was picked up In good
season. The best cattle of tho season ar
rived here this week ana sow as nign ns
16.25. About 217 head sold at that price
on Friday, 20o of them belonging to one
man. The less deslruble grades, while not
quite ns active, sold at fully steady prices,
so that the general market was In very
satisfactory condition.
The sutiniv or cow stun was ou te iioerni
nil tho week. Prices, however, held up
until tho last of tho week, when tho
medium kinds weakened a trifle. Somo
salesmen thought that prices declined no
moro on Friday than they advanced on
Monday and Tuesday, while others thought
they went a shade lower, particularly tho
medium kinds and the canners. Strlctlv
choice cows are probably just about steady.
mere nas noi ocen enougn ennnge in
bulls, calves nnd stags during the week
to bo worthy of mention.
I'racticauy notning out tne neavy came
nro In demand for feeders. Cattlo weigh
ing from wu pounds up of good quality have
been ready sellers all the week and prices
nro fully ateady. Cattlo weighing from 6C0
to sjj pounus nave neen very uuu ana
nrlces have declined fully 25c. Thoso of
common quality nro practically unsalable.
tJuyers seem to ugure mat tney cannot
nfford to feed high priced corn to common
cattle. Common yearlings arc also dull
and lower. Stock heifers have declined
fully ns much a J tho steers. There is a
good demand for stock calves, however,
and prices for the week aro steady.
W estern range steers have been In cood
demand on tho part of killers nnd the
murket may bo quoted strong. The high
price of tho week was 15.23. Tho cow mat
net Is close to steady, except on the
medium kinds, which arc perhaps a trllle
lower, uoou, neavy ieeoers are -teauy,
out others are about a auarter lower. .Rep

HOQS There was not a heavy run of
hogs hero today for even a Saturday and
as a result prices Improved under tno In
fluence of a liberal demand. The market
started out Just nbout iVtc higher than yes-
teruay, wnn tne ouik selling at is-w ami
6S24, against 16.77'j and 36 SO yesterday.
,i inose prices xne mnrxei was lairiy ac
tive and as It was evident that backers
were anxious for suunlles sellers held their
droves nt flrm prices and the market closed
up strong at the advance. Everything was
disposed of In good season.
The sunnly of hogs for tho week at this
point has been slightly In oxcess of that for
tne past several weeKs. but a llttlo short of
tho samo week last year. The week opened
up with an advance, but on Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday the market de
clined close to 15c. On Friday and Saturday
part of tho loss was regained, but the week
closed with prices 2tAfi5c lower than nt the
close of tho previous week. Representative

SHEEP There wero a few fnt lambs of
fered this morniniT nnd nlso some feeders.
The Iambs sold as high as 11.40. which is
the highest price paid on this market In
several days, nnd the market may be quoted
strong. The feeders wero also in goou ae
mand at stronc nrlcej.
For tho week the supply of sheep has
been quite liberal, A good gain Is noted
both over the last several wekB and also
over the corresuondlntr week of last year
The demand on the part of packers has
been fairly good, particularly toward the
closo of the week. Prices nre now about
l"in5c higher all around than they wero
at the close of last week und tho tone to
the market Is greatly Improved. The last
few days tho trade has ruled active and
packers seemed anxious for supplies. That
applies to both sheep and lambd.
The demand for feeders was fully equal
to the supply all tho week and the market
may be quoted strong on both sheep and
lambs.
