HOME TRADE'S CONDITION IS SOUND Worst idnt Cna lie Snld of It Is (lint I'rofltn Arr .Vtit So I.nrne n In thr lliiom Vcnr. NEW YORK, Oct. SO.-Henry Clews' financial review iav that In stocks tnu trading has been chlelly professional, thu public being wury and taking little IntcrcHt In tho movements of the great operator. Tho latter certainly have a wonderful con trol of tho market, so long ua they agree; but In tho I'fTorts to harmonize or con oulldato great railroad systems many stccks have been overbought; there haa been too great a centralization of holdings and the problem now is how to return the.se securities of unquestioned valuo to tho strong boxes of Investors while they uro held at "control" values. It Is an open secret that some of these deals havo been "held up ' fur various reasons, and no doubt thu leading promoters would gladly too them consummated In order to crenta a market for the load of securities which they ure now carrying. How much of the reported friction Is truo and how much Is put out for the purpose of Influencing prices It Is hard to determine; but It la certain that for some time to come tlio . active railroad sh.ires will be dominated by these negotiations and thut prices will rise or fall according to the prospects of their completion. If outsldu conditions uru favorable It la quite likely that the big holders will succeed In lifting the market to a higher level; if they prove unfavor able we must expect further liquidation. In cither case we may look for a.varlety of rumors put out for stock Jobbing pur poses. Tho principal outsldo Influences to bo considered are monetary prospects and general trade conditions. Local monotary conditions should soon Improve, as wo aro near tho period whun funds withdrawn for crop moving purposes will begin to return. At the moment currency ship ments nro large, and In view of other known movements one or two more un favorable bank statements would cause no surprise. Hank reserves nro low, and tho best has been said when tho early re turn of currency has been taken Into con sideration. W'u am now entering Urn gold Importing season, which with rclcuso of crop funds usually Insures a period of easy money until April. Tho prospects of gold Imports Just now, however, nro very ro mote; In fact, w seem more likely to send than to druw gold from Europe. Oer inuny'u Mnnncl.il crisis la evidently reueh Ing another critical period; England Is do pressed by war, unci France, tho most pros perous i( all Euiopcan nutlonH, la girding Itself to meet consequent demands upon Its resources for assistance; to say noth ing of the chill caused by the recent brouk in copper In tho United States. As to homo trade that Is In eminently sound condition. Thcro has been no over expansion of crodlta or buying In general business, and our merchants have cer tainly not been swept oft their feet in the wave of speculation which surged through Wnll street somo months ugo. This was shown by tho steadiness with which tho shock from President McKlnley's ilcuth was received In business circles, where no such defensive arrangements were possible as those carried through by Now York bankers. Of course, tho latter sustained tho merchant; yet It Is notlccablo that there waH little or no curtailment of buy ing' after tho sad event. The loss of tho corn crop and Its effect upon live stock will of courBo enforce economy In certain districts, but this drawback Is not gen eral, and there are other sections enjoying unusual prosperity as a result of a good wheat crop and great industrial activity. The worst that can bo said about genernl trade Is that protlts nre not so largo an In the boom year; still u largo and satis factory fall trade is In sight, und thero 1b little good reuson for being ovcrpcsslm Istlc. It Is both unreasonable and undo llrable to expeot the boom of l'JOO to con tinue lndellnltely. and moderate reactions will tend to prolong and not Bhorten our prorperlty. GERMAN BOURSE STRONGER In ftpltr of Unsatisfactory Sem from' .Indaatrlnl Centera Feeling la More Confident. RERUN, Oct. ao.-NotwIthstandlng much unsatisfactory news, from tho Industrial centers, the bourse last week was compara tively strong. The volume of business re mains slight, outsiders holding aloof. Nevertheless, the feeling Is somewhat mora confident. A favorablo factor was tho buying of coal and Iron shares for foreign account. It is asserted that considerable French money was Invested in such securities during tho week, especially In coal shares, upon the expectation of a coal strlkn In France. From 100,0110 to IW.Ooo marks were Invested In Harnener coal for I'arls account Wednes day. Thero has also been some British buying. A number of Inquiries were re ceived from abroad regarding German In dustrials making good Investment. Never theless, coal shares generally wero neg lected, domestic Investors bolng Influenced by American Imports of coal and tho Im pending reduction In prices. The improvement In ,coal and Iron shares reached four points on the week. Tho coko market Is described as "very feeble." Stocks aro accumulating and It Is con sidered certain that tho syndicate must Increase the restriction of the output to W per cent. Amerlcun rnllroad shares wero tho strong est feature Northern 1'aclflD preferred was heavily bought for New York, gaining 4.1 polnts ysterday. For tho week the gain was 6.62 rmlnts. tho Closlnir miotntlnn being 101.62. Foreign rentes were generally strong, particularly the umiu'W loan, owing to tne llgnlng of the peace protpcol. Italians were llrong upon the fall of tho gold premium, but HpanlardB wero weak. In consequence, of tho condition of tho money market, domestic loans wero weak. Imperial 3s lost ,065 and Prussian 3s .0.1, Them wus much short sclllne of both. Foreign holders also sold. Another causa of weakness was tho rumor of new loans nd the belief that tljo government con tinues to sen i ne loans privately, unticipii luir the Issue. It Is now recorded as eel". tain that considerable new loans will o limited after the now year, both lmpcrlil and Prussian.' Private discount ndvonccd on tho wcok ofa Dolnt to 3 tier cent, which was main tallied. The Impulse to this was chiefly tho scarcity of money In Paris. Considerable French uaner was orrered hero for is count. Another cause was tho llelchsbank's returns for tho week, which proved some what unsatisfactory, it is sain unit tlio bank lias been compelled to prolong a number of bills In order to prevent lnsolv icncles and other difficulties. Tho bour.o leave considerable attention to the negotla tlons between the AllgcmeluoEloktrlcltaotF- CltHsellchaf t of Ucrlln and the Schuckei i Electrical company of Nuremburg fo. establishing a community of Interest, nr ranging prices and saving expenses In roll ing. The shares of the latter company Improved strongly In consequence. Herman works are now securing old r Tor locomotives in India, this is oxpintiiad bv the nosalblllty at moro ranld delivery owing to the fact that the Ilrltish works Jiavo heavy orders ahead. The Prussian railway authorities will soon order 40J loco motives. The sugar syndicate lias decided to re duce' production next year, owing to tho low prices and the actions of stuck.

MANCHESTER, Oct. 20.-I.oc.il conditions continued stagnant throughout the week, though there wis occasional fair business In options. The gcnml experience of the trade was less satisfactory even than dur ing tho week previous. The uggregato sab s of cloth mude n poor allowing, the lack of confidence In present values preventing over-sou buyers' from offering workable prices. The uncertainty as to the crop condition compels a waiting attitude. Thcro Is an expectation that a sufllrlent quantity will bo grown to supply probable require ments unless there Is some almost Immedi ate disaster to the crop. For this reason, weather reports from the field ure anx iously studied and on these will depend the course of tho market In the early future, Such Inquiry for cloth as was made was of a miscellaneous character only. China did not operato appreciably and Homtuy Is overstocked. Some Hnunclul difficulty has arisen In that quarter und Calcutta offern wero below acceptance. Small pjr chases were made for South Amorlea and the lovant. Yarns showed but little alteration and wore tlrm, although shippers were placing only small orders. flold nt Duenoft Ayres.

LEATHER GOODS SOMEWHAT HIGHER Merchants Shmvlnit t'onndence In Kutnrc Httnluen b- Nnuilier of Ad tnnce Orders for SprlnK orr lleliiK I'lncrd. The Jobbing trade of tills city Is kcoplng OMAHA Oct. 19. up nt a very satisfactory rate. Wholesalers In practically all lines are enjoying fully as much business as they could expect nt this tlmo of tho year. Thoy ore, of course, feel ing to some extent the effect of warm weather, which does not creato an nctlvo demand for fall goods and for that reason retailers' stocks nrn not being broken very rapidly nnd but few of them aro coming back nnd placing sorting-tip nrdors. With tho first appearance of cold weather, how ever, It Is thought thero will be a big trade In the country which will also soon mnko nn nctlvo wholesale demnnd. Such line as are sensonable are moving out at a. very rapid rate, and particularly Is that truo of hardware. Fnrnlturo Jobbers nlso report n nlco business and, in fact, say they are selling moro goods than they can get from the manufacturers. Traveling men are now on the road with samples of spring goods and thus far have met with exceptionally good success. Re tailers seem to be willing to place their ordera unusually curly this year nnd as a result Jobbers are greatly encouraged over the prospects for spring. Market conditions have not changed much during tho week. There were, of course, a few ups und downs in groceries, but nstdo from that there havo been comparatively few changes. Tho genernl mnrket Is In a good, healthy condition nnd prices are firm all along tho line. Everyone looks for a continued llrm mnrket and thinks that pres ent values will hold good for somo tlmo to como. Firmer Mnrket nn Tnnintnea. Wholesnlo grocers report tho volume of business very heavy for this season of tho year and say that retailers are anticipating their orders for some tlmo Into the future. Tho healthy condition of tho market nnd thu prospect of still hlghor prices ruling at 110 very distant tlmo doubtless have a good deal to do with their heavy purchases. As was noted a week ago, tho canned goods market Is In a very strong position and particularly Is that true of tomatnos. As It becomes moro generally known that tho pack of tomatoes Is i'.vceptlonal y light tho market gains In strength. During the week, there linn been 110 quotable advance, but still It Is plainly evident that tho tend ency of prices Is upward nnd the mnrket may bo quoted very llrm. All vnrlotles of small fruits nro nlso In a very strong posi- UTho sugar market Is still attracting a great dcul of attention, but prices nt this point remain tho samo as they wero n week ago. The cutting of prices nt the ; lower river markets Is still going on. tout H l understood thnt the amount of stock being sold at the cut prices Is very limited and as a result tho general market Is no ; af fected. Those posted on the sltuutlon hardly think thorn will bo any radical chit ting done In this territory. FarlnnceoUB goods remain about the same aa they wire a week ngo with the excep tion of bears to nrrlvo In the next two or three weeks, which nro a trllle enslcr. Spot stocks remnln Bteady. There has been no chnngo since last re port In tho quotations on cheese, but tho market may bo said to bo firm at homo as well as foreign demand Is of very liberal ''ThSrohaa not been much change In tho market on tir ed fruits, though evaporate, apples are a little firmer. Stoeka are sal. Vo bo rather light this fall, and as a .liberal demand Is anticipated It Is predicted that the market will bo good nnd firm for ton L to come.

Jobbers nre mak ing preparations for a liberal reorder busi ness a llttlo later on. Traveling men started out earlier than usual with their spring lines nnd thus far have sold moro stocks than ever before at the beginning of the season. They find re tailors very confident rcgnrdlng future business nnd have but little trouble In so curing liberal spring orders. At tho 'ate they nro going now they will easily tako moro advance orders than they did a year ago or in any previous season. Tho cotton goods market Is still very firm, with tho demnnd nctlvo. Thero bavo been no Important changes during tho week and the situation Is probably best de scribed by calling It a good, firm, healthy mnrket. Yarn Is nlso In a very strong position, but JobberH nro finding It very difficult to get stock.

There Is, howevor, fully ns much buying ns could reasonably be nxpected under present conditions. Traveling men nro now working hard on advance orders for spring and are meeting with very flattering success. Merchants aio ordrrlng more liberally than they gen erally do this early In tho season, which would Indicate considerable confidence In future business, The fact that spring sairples were out at least two weeks enrllor than usual makes tho present situation nil tho moro encouraging. Fruit nml Produce. There has been a good steady demand tho Inst week for fruits nnd vegetables, but prices havo changed very little, as n Blanco nt the quotations In nnother column will show. Prunes, peaches, pears and grapes aro still offeto.l on tho market, but thoy aro being grntlunlly rcplnced In popular favor by apples.
