SENSATIONAL DROP IN PRICE OF SUGAR "Vlr and Xnlln Declined Ten Cents nd Steel C!(iod Tn IVr Cent, but Dry (looda nnil Lrnther Are Very Firing Tho trndo situation In Omaha and sur rounding territory considerably Improved last week. That Is. of course, owjng to the cool weather, which stimulated the demand all through tho country for heavyweight goods. For the last sovernl weeks both re tailers and Jobbers have been dolnK con siderable complaining owing to the unrea sonable weather, but now they are lit much better spirits and say that with unythliig like a normal winter they will easily soil more goods than they over havo before. According to reports received from tray ling men retailors had a good brisk trade last week unci the way In which collections picked up go to bear out thnso statements. Jobbers, of course, have not experienced uny material Increase In demand, as thero has hardly been time enough, for retailers to break thrlr stocks. It will only take a few wocks, though, of good trade In tho country to bring In re-orduiH from every di rection. That merchants havo considerable confl denco In future business Is evidenced by the manner In which they aro buying their nprlng lines. Local housi'B all havo their men out on the road with spring samples and as thoy havo taken more orders for futuro dcllvory than ever before this early In the year thoy are well pleased with that branch of tho trade. The markets havo shown more fluctua tions during the week than they havo for soma time past. A few lines have taken a drop, but still that docs not mean that prices are becoming demoralized. Those who ought to know say that values aro on as firm a foundation as they well could be and that the few drops that havo taken tilaco are owing to local conditions more than to a lack of demand or of overpro duction, It may still be said that tho gen eral tendency of prices Is upward, us there have been moro advances than declines. In a great many lines there Is dlfllculty ex perienced In getting enough stock to meet the demand and thero Is no reason at the present tltno for predicting any decreasu In tho consumption. Scimntliiiiiil Drop In Mug nr. On Thursday of last week It was an nounced that tho price of sugar on Friday would bo JI.25. This was u drop of about lo per pound, which Is tho most radical de cllno that has taken place In some time. It Is claimed that tho drop Is not Justified by conditions, as raws havo not suffered a llko decline. It Is Htatcd that refiners aro now selling at a loss. As to how long this prlco will last Jobbers are not In a position to state, but they hardly look for another drop nnd thoy would not be surprised to see on uchalico at most iinv tlnin. Ah norm ns tho, JI.23 prlco was announced local Job bers received orders from overy direction and had thoy sold tho amount usked for their supply would havo been exhausted In u. short time. As It Is they aro limiting tho nlzo of orders, but ovon then thoy can soil moro stock than they can secure. Tho coffee market Is also In an excited condition. laical Jobbers received cable grams last week stating that tho crop of Santos coffees Is moro seriously damaged by dry weather than previously reported. As a result tho market firmed up rapidly and stimulated buying. It Is claimed now that tho crop will not go over 7,000,000 hags, while It was formerly estimated at 12.000,000 bags. In farinaceous goods thero Is a stronger feeding on rolled oats and prices havo ad vanced 23c per barrel. This, of courso, affects tho package goods as woll as tho bulk. Byrups aro also advancing owing to the high prlco of corn. Stncu last report prices havo gone up about three scales. , The market may bo said to bo In a strong posi tion nt tho advance nnd higher prices aro predicted for the future. Canned goods nro very Ilrm, with tho ten dency of prices upward. Tho only change of tho week Is a still further ndvanco on tomatoes. Tho 'now crop of rlco Is now being re ceived, and as receipts aro qulto liberal thero Is an caster tone In the market. It Is freely predicted that higher price.? will rulo on laundry soap at no very dis tant date. This Is said to be owing to tho fact that the Ingredients entering Into the manufacture of soap havo been going up for somo tlmo past, so that manufacturers uro forced to advance theso prices. Iocnl Jobbers aro now selling soap at a lower figure than they can buy, so that they will probably rah'o their prices as soon as their present supply Is exhausted. Decline in .Vnlls nnd Wire. Tho most Important fc.it uro of tho hard ware market last week was tho decllno In nails and wire. Tho drop amounted to 10c all around. Jobbers, however, suy that there has been no change In tho factory price, and this decllno has been broiiKht about simply through n rato war between tho wholesalers of tho different cities of tho west. Since there has been no change In tho factory prlco tho market remains practically unchnnged, but at tho some tlmo customers of tho Omaha market aro now receiving their goods nt 10c less than they wero a week uro. Thero was also a ileellne nt uooV rt 10 per cent In steel goods. This was owing to tho expiration of tho agreement between tho different manufacturers, That there Is still an enormous demand fur steel Is shown by tho statements recently mado public to tho effect that over l.OOO.OOrt tons of Hteel rails havo been sold for 1M2 delivery. Tint Is Just about ono-thlrd tho output of the mills for tho present year. From that It would appear tnat moro is no lack of de mand. So far as the general market Is con rerned Jobbers maintain that there Is no general weakness, but, on tho contrary, that prices aro very Ilrm. Tho declines notod above, thoy claim, havo no effect upon tho general situation. Tho volumo of business for last wfok showed considerable Improvement over the previous week, and u good, brisk demand Is anticipated from this tlmo on for all Kinds of cold weather goods, Ilr- finniU a Ml tie Quiet. Tho dry goods trado in a wholcsalo woy last week was not very brisk. From the country como reports of Increased demand owing to tho colder weather, but thero was wot much chnngo In the number of orders received by Jobbers. It Is thought, how ever, that with seasonable weather In the futuro the recorded business will Improve at a rapid rato. as thero In no doubt but what trado In tho country will bo fully as good as It wns a year ago. Spring orders continue to como In at a vapid rate, and local houses huva broken all previous .records In tho woy of advance business. Ono house, In particular, claims to havo sold moro spring goods up to the present tlmo than last year up to January 1. As soon as retailers begin selling their present stocks at a cood. rnnlil ruin thpv will doubtless be moro willing than ever to buy for spring, so that Jobbers aro counting bn taking a good many orders In ion nuxi iow wecas. Thft innrlfnt Ima tn , V, . , . . -1 1 1 . . on either cotton or women goods. J'rlnt cloths nro still In a very strong position and It Is thought by many of tho larger uuyura wi.n an auvance in somo of tbe staple lines of nrlnta u-'ll ink,, ni., ,n no very distant time, Owing to the big domond for ginghams und wash fabrics It Is predicted that deslrablo lines will be exhausted before the end of the season and Jobbers are advising their frin,i. n placo their orders us early as possible, so as to bo suro of a good assortment to cnuosn iruin. Leather Still Adviinclnir, Tho leather goods market In xtlll vnrv strong, with tho tendency of prices up. ward. Manufacturers aro HteiullU- mivnnV.. Ing their lines or putting In cheaper stock nnd asking the same tirlces. Tho hiH-iiiwm slnco October 1 amounts to a good, strong iu per wni. , 10 me luiuru ot tne mar ket. Jobbers say thov sea no ronmin win. prices should not remain good and tlrm for some time io come, as mo ticmnml Is nctlve all over tho countrv and mnmifnetur. ers are having nn trouble In disposing of an mo Kuuun "') can turn out, Locally tho trado situation has been fairly satisfactory so far this vear. Al. though wcathor conditions have been do. cldedly unfavorable, sales havo been fully im turgo no nicy nvrtj u year ago. Krultit anil Produce, Tho demand for fruits and vegetables has been of very satisfactory proportions dur ing tho week, l'rlccs havo not changed materially, but It Is to be noticed that a good many lines that wero on th market a week or ton days ago aro no longer offered. This Is owing to the cold weatlwr shutting off the local supply of fresh lines, nnd then, too, the season for peaches, prunes, plums and several kinds of grapes Is over. Apples and oranges are now the staples In fruit, Tho prices at which they aro selling will bo found In another column, Tho supply of poultry last week was iiuuii luu m rue nir inu iiemaun nnil as a rcsoit prices aro nrm at the quotations Uutter nnd eggs aro also pood and firm, with the demand fully equal to the supply.

In fact tho ro- sults of tho teats being mano on tho pas senger run between Beaumont and Somcr vlllo arc bo satisfactory that It Is moro than likely that hurry-up orders will bo given to rhango all locomotives on tho Texas system ovor to oil without dolay. Hero Is what tho llcautnout-Somervllo run shows: Fifteen hundred gallons, or 36 barrels, of Beaumont crude petroleum fire tho cnglno tho round trip, distance about 36 miles, and average running speed of 27 miles nn hour. It requires 12 tons of coal to per form tho sttmo duty. Ab tho engineers and firemen on this run becomo better used to thu fuel they will reduco tho quantity used below what Is now required: 12 tons of roal nt $4 S1S.00 36 barrels of petroleum at say 20c... 7.20 Saving in money, petroleum over coal, nbout.... $40.80 What moro convincing argument for thu substitution of petroleum fuel for coal?
