SUGAR WAR COMES TO AN END
TlianloKlvInc Trade In Produce Dis
trict Sulllclent to Tnk What
Was Offered nt (loot!
Steady I'rloos,
A holiday always diminishes the total
Volume or business transacted during the
week by Jobber, as It tonds to keep buy
trs at homo, Last week was no exception
j mo general rule, aitnougn wholesalers
crootically all Unci report trade as being
ny up 10 uieir expectations, yuw
a a. law
puyers arrived on tho tnurket th first
three days of the week and placed liberal
orders. It Is very noticeable now that tho
tatavler buyers are beginning to come back,
which shows that stocks In the country are
ftolns; to pieces In spite of the fact that
there has been very little cold weather to
orlnr heavyweight goods Into active de
BMUid. Nearly all of tho retailers who are
coming to the city say that while their
vualneas hus not been particularly active,
nevertheless thoy have had a very fair
trado and In fact have sold a great deal
Rtore of their stock than they could rea
sonably expect to under existing condi
tions. They are preparing for an enormous
tmand as soon as tho first wave uf winter
weather sets In, which accounts for the
liberal ordors that are being placed. Tak
ing everything Into consideration both re
tailors and wholesalers feel Unit they havo
Uttle or nothing to complain of. That Is
Cartlculnrly truo of the wholesalers, who
ay that so far this fall they havo sold
fully 8m much stock and In a number of
eases a great deal more thun they did last
year. Collections also contlnuo In good
nape, which shows that either retailers
have an abundanco of capital or else they
are selling more stock thun thoy are will
uu to admit. .
Thero has been no change In tho situa
tion so far ns advanco orders for Bprlng
re concerned. Traveling mun aro still
breaking their records of last year and it
la very evident that boforo tho first of tho
year local Jobbers will have by far the
Best lino of udvunco orders that they havo
ver taken.
The markets were rather uneventful last
week as a whole, though there wero a row
ehangti of uomo Importance. As a general
thing, however, prices aro In just about the
umo notches thoy wore a weak ngo. Tho
most Important chango of tho week la tho
tarp advance In sugar.
Sugar I'rlaee Itestored.
Present Indications aro that the sugar
Tar is at an ena, at least for tno lmme
Jate present. On Wednesday of last week
jie price of cane sugar was advanced to
per iw pounds, so that both cane and
beet sugars aro now selling on a parity,
Iho lama as thev were before the rato war
Was Instituted. It will be remembered that
t ono time the American Hugar ltcflnlng
company was selling sugar In this territory
As low as $1.23. The prlco was then ad
vanced to H.B, then to JI.81 and now It Is
J5. For the last few days the raw market
Das beenery strong and thoso who aro In
a position to know say that they would not
be surprised to seo prices go still higher In
the near futuro. Tho market on rctlnod
ugar is now governed by the raw markot,
the lamo as It always Is under normul con
ditions. The coffee market Is also in a good,
Strong position, but thero has been no
Quotable chango during tho week.
In dried fruits thero la nothing new to re
port, as th6 demand continues very Hght
owing to tho mild weather. Jobbers, how
ever, aro very certain that higher prices
will rulo when tho tempcraturo takes a
most Important feature of the canned
goods markot Is the continued strength of
tomatoes. The supply Is getting well
oleanod up In first hands and thero Is no
doubt but what local Jobbers will havo to
ask higher price at no very dtatant date.
Early In tho season thoy wero very heavy
Capers, as they anticipated an advance.
Thus far they havo glvon their customers
'the boneflt of tho advance .and aro now
Mlllnf their goods at u lower figure than
fhey can replace thorn. Tno situation in
corn Is about the aamo as tn tomatoes.
The cheeso markot continues very strong
Wing to an aotlve demand and to tho fact
9 At October stock In llrst hands Is well
etnedup. , ...
In farlnsclous goods oatmeal may be
guoted a trifle higher, whllo rlco and beans
ivo eased off a trlflo.
Regarding tho condition of trado local
Jabbers Buy that the domand during the last
rHonth has beon surprisingly largo and
sauoh better than thoy expected. Itetallcrs
have been very heavy buyers nil tho fall
and as tholr purchases contlnuo larger
than usual It Ih good evidence that the
goods bought earlier In tho season havo
gono Into consumption. When wholesalers
ootnparo tho trado they havo been having
,thlfl fall with that of a few years ago they
find a good example of tho way people can
oonomlzo oven In groceries when It Is
necessary. It Is ovldcnt from the lines that
re tn domand and tho amount that Is
Roing Into consumption that people out
trough Nebraska and surrounding states
havo plenty of monoy with which to sup
ply their wants and that they are not
afraid to upend It.
Steel Goods a Iilttle loner.
Tho moat Important chungo In the hard
ware market was tha docllno In steel
Roods, ranging from 15 to 20 per cent. Some
nes declined even mora than that, whllo
others did not go down quite as much, but
the average la ootween 15 and 20 per cont.
The chango takes effect at once, but, of
course, It doeB not affect Immediate busi
ness to any extent, as there Is not much of
that class of goods going out at the pres
ent tlmo. Local Jobbers nro of the opinion
that the prices now In force will hold good
luring the coming season. In other lines
the market Is practically the samo ns It
was a week ago and the general market
may be said to be In a good, healthy con
dition.
Thi
o demand for strictly cold weather
koods continues rnther light, but to offset
that thero Is an unusually heavy demand
for such lines us burbwlro and builders'
material. Tho mild weather makes H pos.
stole to carry on all kinds of out-of-door
work, so that Jobbers aro doing a good
business, even though scasonublo Unci are
a little negioctcd.
Qlass Is steady at tho docllno mentioned a
week ago and trado Is heavier than antici
pated. Linseed oil, however, eased off about
I cents, which places quotations nt 51 cents
for raw and E6 cents for boiled. White
load, mixed points and turpentine are nu
changed. Dry Goads Market Mora Aotlve.
Mors dry goods buyers arrived In this
(aarkstlast week than for some llttlo time
Hit The clearing sales which were ad
vertised apparently attracted considerable
attention and brought In a good many of
toe heaviest patrons of this market. They
placsd quite liberal orders and had a good
'Word to say regarding the condition of
trade In tho country. While they have not
woken many records this fall In tho amount
of winter lines thoy havo sold, still they
have enjoyed a good steady trade and look
for a big run to follow' tno first wave of
mytre weather.
Traveling men for local houses ire meet
tog with good success and are taking n.
Treat many advance orders for January
Shipment. These orders cover practically
.the entire line of spring goods. Borne lines
of wash goods and particularly ginghams
and woven wash fabrics aro reported ns
being well sold up, In view of tho excep
tionally large advance sales.
There havo been very few murket changes
during tho week. The advance, however,
predicted a week ago In American prints
created a big domand and (ncul houses re-
Sort heavy sales. Jobbers are still pre
toting an advanco, as practically tho en
tire lino Is about tic under the market.
Other lines of cotton goods nro
nrm, but no chango has taken pluco dur
ing tho week and no Important fluctuations
are predicted.
Fair Deiunud for Lcnther tlnoils.
There has been very llttlo change In th
leather goods sttuatlun Hlnce last report.
Immediate business continues fully as
heavy as could reasonably bo expected,
though colder weather Is needed to make
trade brisk, Advanco orders are eonrni
In very freely and Jobbers aro greatly
pleased with tint success tholr traveling
men havo been having. If spring bus'ne-s
continues as good as tho advance orders
have bten, local houses will far exceed all
previous records.
Wholeralcrs of rubber goods nre, con
siderably Interested In the reports that
havo been sent out to the effect that tho
fiscal year will begin January 1. I-ast year
It was February 1 and the year before
May 1 and previous to that tlmo It was
April 1, Jobbers nre by no means pleased
Ti'Ith tho prospect of sturtlng out after no t
all's bustnos In January, as It simply
means that their trove tug men will lnvo
to make two or three trips to accomplish
tho same results that thev could In one
trip If they did not start until April or
May i. inert is oi course pome uount re
garding prices after January 1. but the
general Impression la that there will be no
changes of Importance.
Fruits mul Produce,
It has been a long time since the Thanks
living trade moved along as smoothly In
m sroduo district as It did this year.
There was not a particularly heavy de
mand, but at tho same time It was largo
enough to take what was offered without
any material change In prices. A number
of fancy lines were offered Hnd they also
sold at very satisfactory prices. As com
pared with a week ago, thero havo been
very fow fluctuations that nro worthy of
mention. As predicted, the poultry market
held steady up to Thanksgiving and the
aupply was so well cleaned up that there
was no break the last of the week. Com
mission men look for n good steady mar
ket for another week at least, unless re
ceipts should bo much heavier than they
anticipate, nutter and eggs aro also steady
with tho quotations of n week ago.
Hie only change In fruits is an advanco
In apples amounting to about 60c per barrel.
Tho demand Is heavy ail over tho country
and present Indication point to high prices
ruling throughout the season on unythlpy
at all desirable.

abroad were reported quieter today after
uDiciuuy enoriuous liquidation and
Amalgamated started upward here, reach

reviving effect on the lone list and unwuni

were among tho coalers, hard and soft,

tlon of making new low records and
touched 724c In tho course of the morning,
Very circumstantial assertions wern made
that large sales of copper hart been con
tracted for on behalf of the company at
prices materially below tho list price. No
Oinclal admission of thn onsnrtinnii rnnM h
secured. Hears covered In the stock at a
decline and It closed ut 744c, a net decline
of 1 point. Brookjyn Transit was another
point of acuta weakness, with a loss of
nearly 4 points on account of the decrease
In October net earnings caused by the In
crease In operating expenses. The whole

CATTLE Thero wero only o fow cattlo
today and not enough to mako a test of
tho market. For the woek thero was a
good supply considering thut Thursday was
a holiday, and a good liberal gain Is noted
over the corresponding week of last year
ln SDlta of tho fact that Thanksclvlnc was
not u holiday last year. As compared with
last week, however, thero Is a slight falling
off In tho receipts, ns the tablo nbovo will
show. Tho HUDulv for tho month of No
venibcr has been very liberal, nnd In fct
Ih tho heaviest In a period of years with tho
exception 01 ltw, when over w.wo neau ar
rived. Tho demand for U10 better grades ot cat
tlo has been In good shape all the week at
this uolnt. nnd oartlculurlv for (rood to
choice corufed steers. As was notod a week
airo. tho ramrc uf nrlcos Is constantly urow
ing wider, as chulco cattlo aro advancing
whllo common and half fat cuttlo are going
down und aro very slow saui. xno top
prlco of the season bo far Is $7.26, so that
roou 10 ciuico cumo may uo quoiea irom
6.00 to 17.25. Tho situation for tho week
can, perhaps, best bo described by calling
uio oeucr graucs sionuy u ouunt; unu
actlvo, and undeslrablo grades slow and
unevenly lower.
Good to cholco cowu and heifers aro 10
16o higher than thoy woro a week ago and
In good demnnd. Cornfed stock Is now
beginning to urrlvn and a good bunch of
long-fod cows would probably sell us high
as $4.60. while chulco heltora can be quoted
up to $5.00. wheru they aro fat und of good
ouullty. It takes a cholco bunch of cowu
that havo not baen fed to sell up to $3.76.
Tho canner market hus also plckod up a
llttlo this: week, ns offerings havo not boen
as liberal, whllo the demand continues
actlvo. Medium cows, however, have been
ruthor neglected and ore no more tnau
steady for tho week. Canners ure selling
from $1.75 to $2.25, and medium grudes
from $2.26 to $3.v0.
Bulls, calves and stngH are Just about
steady for tho week, no particular change
naving laKen piace.
The better crradea of stockers and feeders
have been in good demund all the week ut
Just about steady prices. A cholco bunch
of heavyweight fecdora will bilng right
uround $4.00 und prima yeurungH sen in
about the same notches. Tho less desir
able grudes sell from $3.75 down.
ine oetier gruues 01 wcsicrn rungn ueci
steers nio ubout steady for the week, but
still puckers aro not as anxious for that
class of cattle as they wero a short time
ago, uh they do not kill out as well. Tho
common kinds aro slow sale and weak.
Range cows of good quality aro strong to
10c or 16o higher, and tho best grades sell
around $3.75. Good to choice stockers and
feeders ure about steudy for tho week, and
may be quoted from $3.75 to $4.00. Repre
sentative sales:

HOGS There was a good run of hogs
here today, making the supply for the
week of fairly liberal proportions, though
not as large as for last week. Thero Is,
however, a gain over tho corresponding
weok of last year. Tho supply for the
month of November bijows an enormous 111
rpHHA nvnr thn Rama month of last year.
In spite of the liberal receipts tho market
opened this morning lOtfflSo higher on the
heavier weights and ubout a dime higher on
tno llgnt nogs. THO uuik oi ine neavy
loads sold at $6.02 and $6.0C, with an oc-
rr.Hlnnnl lnad abovo those flcurcs. The me
dium weights sold mostly from$5.95 to $6.00
ana mo nxniweiKnia irom uuwn. i
tlm market was fulrlv active
and the bulk was disposed of In good sea
son. The last end of tho murket, however,
was a llttlo slow and weak, particularly on
the light hogs, which sellers had some dif
ficulty ln disposing of.
Tho tendency has been upward this week
and at the close the average prlco Is ut the
highest point reached In a good many
weeks,
