FOnCEDTO REFUSE MANY GOOD ORDERS Wmr Jobbers' DmlofM 4 nrtslled ' RmiII of Prrtrat Lars !) mand for Prodnct of MrH MIIU. Alt has not been as bright as an un clouded day with the Omaha wholesale Ira plement dealer this spring, although the business secured 1y the traveling repre- entatires baa been larger than any pre vious year. The trouble with the local bours has not been to secure orders, but to find the goods with which to fill the demands of the retail dealers In the ter ritory. Existing conditions are really seri ous, and managers of houses who find a demand for farming Implements la excess of any which has been seen since the first house was opened west of the Missouri river,-, have figuratively 'torn their hair when they discovered that much of that demand will have to go unsupplled because of the Impossibility of securing the goods desired. .. Spring trade of the western Jobbers con sists principally of plows, harrows and cul tivators, machinery In which steel and Iron forms the major part. Steel mills which supplv this demand, ever since the strike of last year, have been from three months to six months behind with their orders, and while many of the implement factories have standing order with the mills, the demand for plowa and kindred tools has been so large that the regular supply la not sufficient to fill the orders received from the Jobbers. Managers of steel rull la are the most Independent of men at this time and when they have filled their standing orders, turn their attention to the supply of the transient orders, on which, often, a premium Is paid, and regu lar customers are forced to be pleased if they can secure the full amount specified In the contract without wasting time try ing to obtain extra quantities. Implement Factories Handicapped. Such condition has resulted In the Im plement factories running at normal rate of output, when the demand for goods Is in excess of the usual quantities. In con sequence Jobbers have found themselves un able to fill orders, and the volume of busi ness has been reduced to a point where It xceeda by little If any the volume of last year, which, however, was heavier than any previous year. When the condition first developed In February, at the time the filling of advance orders began, the dealers followed the usual practice of filling part of each or der received, and placing on the "back orders" the remainder of the Implements called for. As the trade opened up It was found that It would be utterly Impossible to fill these back orders, and the majority of tbem were cancelled. Retail dealers were forced Into other markets, where they found the same condition to exist, and It la said that in the states of Iowa snd Ne braska, a thousand farmers are compelled to use worn out machinery because It Is impossible to secure new ones. Fortunately the spring trade Is not the heaviest of the year, the value of the plows, harrows and cultivators being much less than the value of the machinery sold later in ths season, which consists of reapers, mowers, threshing machines and similar Im plements used In the harvest. Local Job- VlIIPB MM k,l th, -kvnansn I this class of Implements is much better than the prospect In the planting machinery line, and that as a result they expect to have a better trade this year than that of 1901, which late In the season fell off on account of the drouth. Loss of Last Year I'nknown. Probably no accurate estimate will ever be made of the loss to the Implement deal ers caused by the dry weather of last year. One house alone reported In September the cancellation of orders for vehicles aggre gating (50.000, and other houses reported lasses In business In proportion. The en forced reduction of business last fall, found its corresponding Inflation this spring when, after reduction In the size of the crop had been somewhat compensated for In ths higher prices of grain and live stock, which has prevailed slnoa that time, the farmers were In a posltioa to warrant the purchase of supplies which, they had decided not to buy In the fall. Much of the advantage which would havo normally been secured by increaaad demand has been lost by rea son of ths impossibility of securing ma chinery, and it begins to look. In the lan guage of the manager of one of the whole sale houses, "aa though the condition of the iron and ateel market was going to confirm the loss temporarily caused by the dry weather of last year." MR. KL0PP TELLS THE PLAN Pays PrlaHnsr osnpeay Will Have Sewly Aeaalred Property Re. paired a Oare. Klopp Hartlett, lithographers and print ers, at 1114-19 Farnatn street, have pur chased from Edgar M. Morsman, acting for the New Hampshire Insurance company, the old Republican building at Tenth and Douglas streets and the lot adjoining on the south. The building la a three-story brick with a basement and Is 83x1.12 feet. The lot Is 66x132 feet. The company In tends to begin repairing the building at once and expects to have It ready for oc cupancy In sixty days, the repairs to cost about I2.0f0. Just what will be done with the adjoin ing lot has not been derided, though It Is likely a building will be erected upon It and leased, as the old building st present Is sufficiently large for the needs of the com pany. "We expect to move to our new quarters as soon as possible," said A. T. Klopp, "as we are entirely too crowded where we are. We have been on the lookout for a new location for ths last two years and are well satisfied with our purchase. At present we have not decided what to do with the adjoining lot. We have thought of taking off a story of the Republican building and extending a two-atory building over the two lots, though It Is more prob able that we will put up a building and rent It. C. H. Klopp la In Chicago on busi ness and while there will examine some new machinery which we are thinking of purchasing. We will, however, buy noth ing until after the building Is ready for occupancy. We practically closed the deal for the property last Tuesday, but do not expect to get the deed returned from the company until Monday or Tuesday. If ths title is all right we will take Immediate possession. WILL MOVE TO ROCK ISLAND Western Lrssse Headquarters Will Be Taken from Kansas City.

TsL tat HERMAN K0UNTZE COMPLAINS TO MAYOR Writes (hat He Will Close Road Throaah His Property If Old Agreement Is Sot Betfer Observed. The garbage question was brought forci bly to the sttentlon of the city authorities yesterday by a letter from Herman Kountze, who owns a greater portion of the land fronting on the river from Gibson to a point near Q street. Mr. Kountze writes to Mayor Koutsky: "About a )ear ago I made arrangements with the city of South Omaha by which I permitted It to locate a road across some of the land controlled by me between the railroad tracks and the river. This road was opened only on the condition that the city erect a suitable fence. A condi tion was made that no garbage or dead animals be dumped on the river front, but that all such matter should be carried to the stresm and dumped Into It. I am Informed that the city Is paying no atten tion to the agreement, and If not carried out I will enforce it by fencing that part of the territory over which no road to the city was granted. This will shut the city off from access to the river." Mr. Kountze asks the mayor to advise him what will be dono In the matter. A city official who Is conversant with affairs says that it Is true that the dumping of garbage has been going on and that it should be stopped. The big sandbar which the pontoon bridge company took so much pains to protect has been washed away and now the refuse dumped is a nuisance to those who reside In the neighborhood. Even should Mr. Kountze decide to close his road to the river, the city has means of getting there. It can open U street with little or no cost, or If desired, Q street could be opened. It is probsble that the U street route will be used after this. While the route Is a little out of the way. It Is deemed better for the city to use its own streets snd not be continually making arrangements for an open road to the river. Court Decides Contest. In the recount of the ballots cast for councllmen In th Fourth ward Judge Vln eonhaler has decided that O'Connor has the most votes. This defeats Mclntyre, repub lican, and makes the council democratic. It Is understood that on Monday night the council will meet and a president snd pres ident pro tern, will be elected. By the Issu ing of a certificate of election to O'Connor the deadlock will be broken and the chances are that Queenan will be chosen president and Welsh president pro tern. As soon as the organization Is completed the mayor and council can proceed with business. Troop Accepts Invitation. Captain Holland of the South Omaha cav alry troop has accepted an Invitation from Rev. M. A. Head to attend memorial serv ices at the First Methodist Episcopal , church on Sunday. May 25.

Members of the Anti-Saloon league hava requested an Interview with Mayor Koutsky In relation to the carrying out of the prov e ions of the Slocum law.

CHICAGO, April 20 The necessity of ex pansion was the dominant theme at the banquet of the Bankers' club, which wm held tonight at the Auditorium hotel. The chief speakers of the evening were: Presi dent M. E. Ingalls of the Big Four rail road. Robert Lowery of Atlanta and Frank O. Lowden of Chicago. The principal address of the evening was delivered by Mr. Ingalls and his views found earnest support among his hearers. Mr. Ingalls said: Tioth parties In this country have noti fied th:s world that they will uphold the Monroe doctrine: that Is. that no foreign power shall be allowed to Require terrl. ry on the American continent; mid we lire prepared to maintain this. While foreign countries have aci-epted this political hncl arbitrary notice they have been Insidiously and actively engaged In cultivating nml commercially annexing the Went India islands anil the South American stntes by sending out their merchents, their manu facturers and their bankers, by luinlng money, by promoting enterprises ami by long credits. The very first thing to do to promote commerce and trade with the West India islands and the South American states Is to build a system of transportation and communication between our country ami these several ports and cities. Trade al ways follows facility and cheann-s of communication. If our country today. In stead of spending millions of dollars on subsidies for American ships, which are to be used to compete with the fnst ships on the North Atlantic and wtth the profitless trade of Europe, would allow the postmas ter general to spend whatever sum was necessary In carrying the mulls, at least once a week, between the t'nlted States and the principal ports of the West India Islands and the South American states He should soon rind our commerce Increasing and bankers establishing agencies for fur nishing exchange and credit. You cannot bring about a change of con ditions by saying we are the greatest peo ple on earth; that we have more railroads; that we have the biggest trusts and that we are the people. These things do not count when you get down into South America among the l.atln races. You have got to show them that it is easier and cheaper to visit the United States than ingianu; tnat their freight can be shipped with greater dispatch and at a cheaper rate, and, above all, you must show them that there Is money enough In the country and machinery for using It, to furnlRh. them long credits upon good security and ii a gooa rate or interest. If we would make this nation as rich and powerful as It ought to be we must adopt some of the plans that were out lined by Blaine In his day, were emphasized by Mckinley In his last message; we must adopt a system of reciprocity bv which we can Increase trade. A tariff wall against the labor of Europe and Its competition may be necessary. It certainly Is consid ered so by a large number of our peonle, but the same wall that protects us upon that side is our ruin upon the other and we must cultivate the West Indies, the South American states and the Islands of the Paclilc by reciprocal arrangements and relations which promotp our commerce. We must admit their products free. In con sideration of their purchasing from us, and If this Is done we have not ships enough upon the ocean to carry the commerce be tween those countries and our own, and there Is not money enouph In the banks to furnish the credit and exchange.
