Jobbers ! Manufacturers Making
Bljr Preparations for Kitrrtililnf
Retailer that Are Exported
to Arrive Tbla Week.
Omaha Jobber and manufacturer In
practlrally all line enjoyed a very liberal
patronage laiit week. 1 he city wai full of
buyer and In fact there were fully a
ninny In town aa during any previous week
thla year. A record breaker, however, la
looked for thla week, a Jobber alrady
have received advlrea from enough mer
chant to assure this being the neavlest
wfk ever experienced and a good many
always come In unexpectedly. All the
Jobber and manufacturer have called In
their traveling men Irom Iowa and Ne
branka and eome from more distant points,
ao aa to be able to look after the wantn ot
buyer with promptness. Jobber say
that there la no mistaking the fact that
retailer are enjoying- a brlr-k earlv tall
trade and that they are very confident for
the future. They all tell the ame itory
about condition In their respective terri
tories being the baat they have ever seen
and th it farmer and all clatea of people
re. In better flnanolal condition than ever
before. Th fact that the order being
plnced show a bin Increase over those
placed a year ago would Indicate that the
reports are not overdrawn.
What ha been said before from week
to week regarding the Arm condition of
the markets on practically all classes of
goods still holds true and the tendency Is
undoubtedly In the direction of stronger
prices, 'i he demand la ot such liberal pro
portions from all sourcea that, even though
mills are being run at full force. It seems
to be almost Impossible to turn out the
goiftls fast enough and Jobbers are coin
plaining of the difficulty they are having
In getting their order filled. Aa long a
that Is the case there Is little cause for
looking tor lower prices. In groceries, of
course, price fluctuate up anu down witn
the seasons, but even there most line
are tending upward rather than down
ward. In spite of the big crop.
Advance In Dried Frnlts.
Wholesale grocer report the volume of
business aa being ot very satisfactory
proportion In all tines and In fact they
are having about all they ran do to All
their order promptly, tine of the notice
able featurea of the market waa the ac
tivity In certain line of dried frult. In
cluding fancy California apricots and
Seachee. I'nuer the InMuence of thl big
emand fancy apricots advanced from He
to lc per pound and high grade peaches
were marked up c. The quantity of these
grades, as has been previously intimated,
la email. Evaporated apple also come In
for their share of attention ud Michigan
tock has been advanced lc per pound.
Southern stock I not participating to auch
an extent, but still even that la Si He per
pound higher than It was a week ago.
The canned goods market la also very
active and particularly I that true of the
trade on corn. Some time ago It wa re
ported that eastern eanner were ehort
on standard grades and as a result they
looked to the west for a part of their aup
plles. A shortage all over the country has
developed and In consequence Iowa can
ners experienced a very liberal demand last
week, which has caused them to aavanee
their prlcea 10c per doaen, and It is thought
that atlll higher prices will rule In the
near future. The market on tomatoes is
also excited and practically everything I
bi.li,g Uktii .a rapidly a offered, lialtl
more canners are Selling at price equal
to $1.09 laid In here, or, In other word,
that Is the Jobbers' cost.
The sugar market Is a little easier and
particularly Is that true of granulated. The
large consumptive demand till continues
and probably will for th next few day.
There 1 nothing at present to Indicate
lower prices for some day, although the
general prediction Is that a lower market
will prevail next month.
The cheese market continues active at
the last advance and everything offered Is
being freely taken. Stocks. It 1 claimed,
are Tight in warehouse. The export trade
la also Improving and a a result of thl
exceptionally good demand both at horn
and abroad still higher prlcea ore being
predicted.
The nut market la active and an advance
of Vbo per pound on eoft shell nut Is re
ported. The rent of the list la trong at
the old figures. - -
The coffee market haa shown no paaWtu
lar chango since last report. It seem to
be fluctuating back and forth through
a narrow margin, without any quotable
gain In either direction. The tea, market,
though. Is very strong and higher price
are being looked for. In fact Jobber say
they would not be surprised to see the
market practically cornered and much
higher prlcea prevail. According to report
the Japan crop was damuged 30 per cent
by frost and indications point to a short
age everywhere. It la claimed that not a
Sound of early picked tea can be bought In
apan.
Active Demand for Dry Goad.
Dry good Jobber had a very heavy trade
last week and In fact they had fully a
many visiting merchant aa at any rime. o
far this year. The orders placed were very
liberal, ao that the total volume of busi
ness transacted was exceptionally large.
Traveling men are coming In for carnival
week to wait upon the rush of buyers that
are sure to come and In fact Jobbers ex
pect thla week to go far ahead of anything
they have ever experienced. Big prepara
tion have been made for looking after
visiting merchant and Jobbers feel conn
dent that they will be able to wait upon all
that come without any delay.
Bo far a the market Is concerned there
I not much to be said that has not been
reported previous to this time. The market
continues strong on all cotton Roods and
tnhbers are still experiencing considerable
difficulty in getting duplicate orders filled
of many desirable lines. There have been
no Quotable change worthy or mention
but still there Is a tendency to harden
firlce all along the line, and the general
mpreaslon is that tlrm price will continue
lor om time to come.
No Chans In Hardware.
All seasonable line of hardware continue
to move out at a very rapid rate. Bo far
this season local houses have had the beat
trade they have evur experienced and pre'
ent Indications are favorable for the In
crease over previous year continuing. The
greatest dlfflcjlty that Jobber have to con
tend with I the scarcity of goods. Tools
and builders' hardware In particular are
scarce, but Jobbera say that the demand
mi tall nas oeen aometning pnenomenat.
Other line, though, are nearly aa scarce
and as a result merchants are anticipating
their wants as far as possible ao aa not to
be caught short.
The market haa not changed materially
during the week under re vie. Practically
all llnea are In a good strong position and
o far a can be told there Is no reason for
expecting any weakness to develop for some
time to come.
v Leather Good Continue Firm.
The leather gooda market continue vary
firm and manufacturer are either asking
little mere money for their lines or else
taking a little 0Jt of-them to nake up fur
the high price of leather.
80 far as the local situation I concerned
wholesaler report trade very active and
look for a brisk demand next week when
the city will be full of buyer. They are
rushing out their fall shipment rapidly
aa possible and moat of the houses ar
nearly through with advance business.
The rubber good trade cnntlnu: active
Dotn en footwear and clothing, with
normal winter there seems to be but little
doubt nut wnat more gooda will be told
out of thla city than ever before.
Frail aad Prednee.
There wis a llb.-ral demand last week for
frv.lt both from th city and th country
There haa not been much change In the
f rices, but It I evident that the season
or peache and plums Is rapidly coming
to a close. California and Colorado ar fjr
ntshing tha most of the peaches, though
there were a few Michigan on th market
last week. In another column will be found
the prlcea at which the different llnea of
fruit aa well as of vegetables are selllne.
Hevelpt of tat have been rather light
all the week and a a result price have
advanced a little. The same Is equally true
of butter and of poultry. The demand hi,
been of liberal proportion, so that all th
stock offered met with ready sale.

clptal Feature In the
Corn Trade.
CHICAOO, Sept. 77. With th exception
of corn, trading on the Board of Trade
today was light and the tendency was to
lower prlcea The demand from shorts In
September wheat was again a feature and
that option closed c higher, wnlle De
cember was Vi'3c lower. December corn
closed lc lower, oats were Vkjc lower and
January provisions closed unchanged to Sc
lower.
The September delivery was th leader
In wheat and shorts were again good buy
er. While the demand wss well suppllwl,
the close was strong on that month. Trad
ing In the deferred months was fratureless
and fluctuations confined within a narrow
range. Liberal receipts In the northwest,
together with wet weather, w?re bear fea
tures. September opened unchanged to lc
higher at fc6'q87c, and salea throughout the
entire session were confined within the
opening range. The clos was r. higher
at 8ti4c. December opened unchanged at
HVktW'Vc and sale were made b-tween
83'-c and 6?c. with the close ftHc lower
at 6So. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 539.000 bu. Prlmarv recelp's
were 1.324,139 bu.. compared with 1,156.6,0
last year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
receipts of 920 cars, which, with locnl re
ceipts of 163 cars, 13 of contract grade, made
the total receipts for the three points of
1.08$ cars, against 1.125 a week ago and 1.044
last year.
The feature to the corn trade was the
unloading by bulls who have been acilve
on that side of the market recently. The
wet weather made a good market on which
to sell the stjff. but In snite of th heiivv
realising In December that month only

opening wai Krnc higher at 46VlfiliC. which
waa tne nigh point or the day. The close
waa 10 lowet at 4fvti45c. Local receipts
were mi cars, wun isa 01 contract.
Oats were dull and lacking In any striking
feature and fluctuations were within a nar
row limit. There waa a -weaker tone to
the market. Influenced by predictions of
more favorable weather. December opened
'lie higher at 31W sold within a c range.
closing Mie lower at 31Vs31Vic. Local
receipts were 120 cars.
Provisions were quiet, with the principal
business largely changing from nearby to

Feverish Trading Dae to Opposing
gpecolat I ve Interesta.
NEW YORK. Sept. 27.-There waa a verj
feverish trading on th Stock exchange to
day, which eemed principally due to a
contest opposing speculative Interest. The
pool op rations, which were responsible
for yesterday sharp upward movements,
were again In evidence at tho opening, but
the high prices ms'le attracted renewed
heavy liquidation. Induced by misgiving
that the bank statement would fall to r
(al the recuperation which was expected
ysterday. There was a heavy break In
prices in progress when the bank state
ment appeared, ahowing a surplus reserve
re-established of $:f.:'36.5iV The bull oper
ators thereupon turned upon their oppo
nents and marked up prices 14 to 1 point
at a Jump, so that the level of the market
was seht back to near last night's level
and In some cases above. This was fol
lowed by another relapse, which carried
some stock lower than before and mads
the closing feverish and unsettled. Ixiuls
vllle suffered to the extent of -4Mi In the
late break, owing to the uncertainty
whether the minority stockholders are to
be allowed to share in the terms which It
Is reported will be offered for control by
the Atlantic coast line syndicate. St. Paul
suffered an extreme loss of over 4 points on
account of denials by officials of published
reports of a proposed stock subscription
right. The dominant Influence was the
money situation. The Increase of $1,790,700
In cash reserves of the banks was a total
surpriso In view of an Indicated decrease
of abojt $4.0iXi,0oO. On the other hand, the
loan contraction of $13.i",2.(iii was not as
large aa had been looked for. The source
of the cash Increase was an unexplained
mystery. A pharp fractional recovery In
the sterling exchunga market, unusual for
Saturday carried rates well away from the
gold import h point. The b;ink statement
tailed to convince speculators that the
necessity for further loan contraction ha
entirely passed.
The following are the closing price on

CATTLE There were several cars of
cattle In the yards this morning, but there
were not enough of them offered to make
a market. For the week receipts show a
decrease as compared with last week's
record-breaking run. but aa compared with
the correSDondine: week of last year there
la a good Increase, as will be seen from j
tne tame above. The increase ror tne year
to date amounts to over IOO.00O head. More
than that, the supply ao far thla year Is
only about 168,000 head short of tha total ,
receipts for last year, ao that at the pres
ent rate, by the end of October the
deficiency will be nearly made up, or. In
other words, receipts are nearly two
months ahead of last year.
There have not been enough cornfed
steers in the yards thla week to tell any
thing about the true condition of the mar
ket. Anything desirable though, has met
with ready sale at what looked to be
about steady prlcea and practically all that
can be said of the market la that It la
nominally steady. Warmed up cattle, of
course, have not sold very freely, as the
packers prefer westerns to that class of
corn feds.
The cow market la In about the aame
position It was a week ago. The first half
of the week values picked up a little, but
Tuesday and Wednesday proved to be the
hl(?h days of the week and on Thursday
and Friday the gain waa Just about lost,
so that prlcea are now where they were
at the close of last week.
Bulls, veal calves and stags are ajso
selling In practically the aame notches
thev did a week ago.
The stocker and feeder market has been
tn good shape all the week. Uood to choice
cattle of all weights may be quoted fully
steady. Bpeculatora say they never saw a
time when the country buyer. dis
criminated against common cattle to the
extent that they are thla year. Every
body seems to want cattle of good quality,
no matter of what age or wclsht. Year
lings of good quality have sold to much
better advantage this week than they did
last. Common cattle, though, of all
weights have sold very .lowly and If any
thing are a little lower than they were a
week ago.
Although the big bulk of the tattle thla
week conhiated of western rangers the pro
portion of beef steers was not at all large.
The feature of the trade seems to be the
unevenness of the prlcea paid, and as a re
sult there Is considerable difference of opin
ion as to the position of the market as
compared with a week ago. As a general
thing, however, the beat grades may be
quoted fully steady with last week, but
very few of that class have been coming.
The top price for the week Is 15.45. but
they were choice. The medium grades of
cattle are the ones that have suffered and
thev are safely 15c lower than they were
a week ago. Cattle on the Texas order are
also lower for tne week. The very common
grades have not shown much change. Good
western feeders of all weight, are also f.illy
steady for the week and have aold freely.
The medium and common kinds, though.
have been neglected and are unevenly
lower. Range cows are Just about steady
with the close of last week, the advance of
the first half of the week having been
largely lost.
HOUS There was a ngni run or nogs
here today, but aa reports from other
points were not favorable to the selling In
terests the market oiiened about 6c lower
than yesterday's average, or about steady
with yeaterday'. close. Later In the morn
ing the feeling became a little better and
a good many nogs sold only a shade lower
than yesterday's general market. The ex
treme close, though, was hardly as good as
the middle of the market. The bulk of the
sales went from t7.2o to 17.35 and aa high
as 17.45 was paid.
As will be aeen irom tne tame 01 receipts
above the receipts for the week show an In
crease over last ween, dui a decrease over
tha same week of last year. The first half
of the week prices advanced materially.
but for the past three days the market haa
Dee 11 going aown rapidly ana tne aecune
amounts to nearly 80c. and as compared
with the close of last week the market la
fully 60 lower. Representative sales:
