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near tho period whun funds withdrawn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

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.

ranging prices and saving expenses In roll

Improved strongly In consequence.

Tor locomotives in India, this is oxpintiiad

owing to the fact that the Ilrltish works

railway authorities will soon order 40J loco

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

chases were made for South Amorlea and

Yarns showed but little alteration and
wore tlrm, although shippers were placing
only small orders.

in an otherwise dnll Saturday session on

prospect of closing deals for over Sunday
there was an Inclination to sell. The doubt
over Uio amount of damage done by the
drouth to thu Argentine crop brought an
uneasy feeling to the crowd, however, and
December gained activity and strength nnd

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

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

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

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

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. It begins to look as
though Into buyers would have difficulty In
getting the goods they want nt any prico.

Jobbers Is not exceptionally large, ne tho
weuther so far this fall has not been of
the kind to mnko retail business very un
live. Stocks In the country for that roa
son nre quite complete ns yet, so that
merchants nro not placing many dupllcato
and slzlng-up orders. 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

by apples. Tho eating apples now on the
