CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE Volume f Bmiaasi Transacted in Jos Larger Than & Yaar Age. PRlttS WELL MAINTAINED ON ALL LINES Outlaek (or Future Business Consld red Very Favorable and Local Jobber Preparing for llrtr lest Fall Trada en Reoord. Jobbers and manufacturers tn practically 11 linca report their midsummer trade aa starting out In a very satisfactory man rier. They have been saying for soma time past that all they needed waa watmer weather to make cummer Unea move more freely and now they are more convinced of that fact than ever. In checking up thalr salea for tha month of June they find, however, that the volume of business transacted wax much larger than would naturally be expected considering the un seasonable weather that waa experienced and, tn fact, with very few exceptlnna both wholesalers and manufacturera sy they aold more goods laat month than aver before In June. According to all r'porta received from the country June trade with retallera wna hardly up ta expectation, but that fact doea not aeem to have discouraged them aa la ehown by the amount of good they bought. Jobbera think their customers bought more for the trade they expected tn the future than what they were hav. tng at that time Traveling men who came In for the Fourth said that the feel ing In the country was very confident and that everyone aeems to believe that the outlook for the future could not well be Improved upon. Cropa are In good con dition and retallera look for an enormous summer and fall trade. So far aa the marketa are concerned there la not very much to be salJ. a a moat lines are aelllng In about the same notches they were a week ago. Meat of the rhang that have taken pIhc are m the direction of higher rather than of lower, prices, and present Indications are that quotations will remain gmd and Arm on moat ataplea for ome time to come. Bagar Remnlna Steady. The augar market ta quoted the aame a It was a week ago. Jobbers ray that the demand an far this aeaaon has been a little disappointing, owing .partly to the cold weather and also to the fact that the small fruit crop and especially cherrlea waa short all over the country. It la thought, however, that there will be a marked Improvement In the demand from this time on If the weather la normal. The market on Tolled and package oats ta advancing quite rapidly and contlderahly higher price are rxp?cted before the new crop arrlvea on the market. The present high prices are caused by tha acarclty of milling oats. Family white fish Is also higher than It wa a week ago. The high price of meat t la said, la causing higher prlcea to rule on Ash than usual. There has been no change In canned goods of any Importance, though the mar. get may be quoted Arm on nearly all llnea. Jellies, starch, syrups and everything Into which corn enters Is advancing and it Is predicted that still higher prices will rula before the new crop of corn Is available. There haa been no change In coffee or tea during the week Under review and. In fact, practically all ataple llnea of gro ceries not mentioned above are selling In bout the aame notches they were a week go. hipping Oat Fall Goods. Local dry goods jobbers are Very busy Jeeelvlng fall goods and filling the order or heavy atuff that they have taken dur ing th laat ninety day for July shipment. Advance business waa wry great thia aeason and in fact heavier than ever be for. It la thought that If condltlona In th country continue aa favorable for th next thirty days as they are now house trad this fall will be something enormous and go far ahead of anything previously aspenrncen. i ravenng men aay tnat al though buainess with retallera waa a little lighter last month than thev expected, till there has been a great Improvement th laat few daya and everyone la looking for a still heavier demand from this time on. Cotton goods continue on Just about th aame basla they have been during the ntlre spring season. There Is soma dan- :sr. however, ao the trade says, of experl clng aom difficulty In getting order filled In th future, aa popular lines are well sold up. Collections continue very satisfactory. ' Hardware a Little Quiet. Hard war men aay that up to the Fourth they had a very lively trad In all season able llnea, but as usual they look for a pig decree He In the volume of trade dur ing midsummer. Indications, hewever, are , that they will do fully as much aa they did list year during the montha of Julv and August and In fact they expect to do a little more. Every month so far this year they hope to maintain this record th balance of the year. There have been no changes In quota tions worthy of mention within tha last w nd the market situation Is de scribed when it Is said that practically all llnea r firm and In a good healthy con dition.

Total 891 4,807 CATTLE There wa auite a string of cattle here today, but with the exception of two or three cara they were consigned direct to local packers. An a result there was nothing with which to test the mar ket. For the week the 'supply has been rather light, a decrease being noted not only as compared with last week, but slso with the same week of last year. The de mand, on the contrary, has been of liberal proportions, ao that the upward tendency of prices continued. There did not seem to be enough steers on the market this week to meet the re quirements of local packera and competi tion forced prlcea up fully 10(15c and In some cases the advance waa more than tnat. Buyers were out early every morn ing and It only took them a short time to buy up everything with any kill to It. Com mon stuff and those showing grasa were neglected and could not be quoted any more than steady. Good to choice cow and heifers, both dry lot and grass, have also Improved In price during the week. The advance Is fully as great aa noted above for steers and the supply apparently was not equal to the de mand. The commoner gradea, though, were a drug on the market and especially was that true of the cutters, which are Just a little better than cannera. No one seemed to want such kinds and the prices being aid for them are very low, as is snown v the fact that It takes a pretty good cow to bring 83. Packer claim that these common cowe are not killing out at ail well, and for that reason they must Duy them cheap or not at all. Bulls, veial calves and stags did not fluc tuate to amy extant during the week. De sirable grades sold freely, but the demand was limited tor common xinns. Good to choice stockers and feeders have been In eood reauest all the week. and as receipts were rather light prices Improved considerably the first half of the ween, ine las., nan mere nae, 01 course, been little doing, aa the Fourth ahut off buyera from coming to market, so that the market has not been In normal condition since Wednesday.

Aa the morning advanced the mar ket aeemed to gain in atrength, and in some cases salea were made that looked strong to 5c higher. Owing to the limited offerings the bulk waa disposed of In good season. Packera seemed to be anxious for tne good weight hogs, but th light stuff waa neglected the same na usual. The quality today was only medium, so that the aales do not shew up tbs full strength of the msrket. The bulk of the better weight hogs sold from 87.70 to 87.75 and a high ss 17.82V was paid. The medium weights went largely from 17.60 to $7.70 ana ine ngni siun soia irom gown. A few loads that came In late did not sell quit aa well. The general market haa been In good shape all the week, with the general ten dency of prices upward, and In fact the high point of the year to date has been reached this week. There was a slight reaction on inursaay, oui mat loaa was regained today, so that the total advance lor ine weea 1a cioae to a dime.
