T trad situation wlih Omaha Jobber n4 tnanu'selurer mcUnuti very ssus fectnrr. Th inn weather of last week ma y br bad a tendency to ruriall. 10 mm extent, the demand for winter goo's, Vm em the other hand tbe pleasant diy wrought out boat ef hrpper. and reord- Ina la all rprrt reentry merchrt en 'd wery liberal patronage. Traveling mm say retailer' stock are going to pieces at a rapid rata and tht the wsy things ick now Jobbers will do a big re-order 'f'twtnea In spits of tbe fact that merchants aouAkt heavily at the cpenlng of the season. Ail classes cf peop e sem to be spending mere money than ever before, and r buying a better class of goods, and for that reason retailers are dolr.a more busi ness than they hoped to do. Jobber hve a good word to saw rsrdlng collection rtdse far very few bad account have been found. . Ths itisrketa hare fluctuated very nttl Curing tht vwk under renew, but the same rrmnea enaraeienses me itnrr.i i mo tion that haa been reported for many month past. It la to be noticed that with vary few exceptions the tendency of rrice to upward and tht Jobber a well a retailer are anticipating thtlr want far Into th future, a they cn see no prospect of value reaching, a lower level for lome ; tlma t come. Groceries Active aaa1 Btraaa;. KlinlerJe grorert report the volume of fcuslnes exceptionally heavy for tht time ef the year and In fact they are being rushed to their utmost to care for their mrriedlste businer.s and at the same tlma ship out thetr future order. Each week thy see a big increase a compared with the corresporwiirg week of laet year, S3 that they find no cause for complaint. Tha first shipments of new seeded raUln arrived on the market th first of lat week and are going cut to the trade at a vry rapid rat. Lat year ther waa a allfTorence In price between choice 16-oe Beaded and three-crown loose muscatels of about JV per lb., but tht year the differ ence 1 only bout le per lb. Seeders claim tbey ar doing business at a loa of from IA te SW a car. but whether that 1 the rase r pot. the difference In price i o slight that tha aeeded raisin will undoubtedly become mora popular than ever before. Considerable Interest 1 being ahown In tha tancy tine, including figa. date and lacs frulta. Currant ar also moving; out In large quantities, a price are cheaper than thew were a year ago. and the quality tf th stctck better. The market continues very atrong on peachea and jricot and aom line of the fancy fruit are entirely ut of the market. In th line of canned goods Interest still ranters around corn and tomatoes, with pumpkin also claiming considerable atten tion. The market has eased up a little on tometoes, but not enofcgh to change the situation rn tha west. Tha weakness is noticeable only in the Maryland district and owing to the fact that the good now being packed axe not of a good color or flavor a those packed earlier In the year It la not thought that the western market will be influenced at all. Pumpkin Is being bought up wherever stock of satisfactory quality can be found and well posted oper ator think that thia mean a material ad vance in the near future over present price. One factor that adds to this feeling materially 1 the very high price being bald tor gaJloa pie fruit, particularly ber ries. . The week closed with th sugar market practically the same a It was the week before. The market on raws showed con siderable strength the first part of the week, but towasd the close the market eased off a little, which left it about where It was before tha strength developed. The Demand for sugar continue exceptionally eavjr for thia aason of the year. The cheese market Is strong and fancy tVtober stock Is quoted Vc higher than it was a week aa-o. The demand is very brisk, all offerings being freely taken by specula torn. Tber has been no qootsbla change dur ing the week on either coffee or teas. Other Staple lines hnmUed by Omaha 'Jobber are klso In just about tha aam position they srera a week ago. Hawse Trade Qalet. House trade with Omaha dry goods ob ters waa rather quiet last week, but the prdcr trade continued very satisfactory. The warm weather of course somewhat in terfered with the movement of heavyweight good, but at ill buKlneaa with retailer Is reported good, with the prospect for th future very encouraging. Merchant are preparing for a big ruph of business to fol low tb next cold wave and for that reason are keeping their stocks very complete. Many lines, however, of popular winter goods are being broken, notably children fnd women fleece lined underwear, cotton 'lanketa and medium gTade of mottled fiannela Traveling men have taken aome large ardera for spring wash goods and other specialties deaigned for spring trade. Ther now aeeme soma dangrr that th shortage of ginghams experienced last year will be reproduced thia sea on. Early orders wera vary large va.1 certain style ar sold out. Trade In waaa cocoa 1 mainly in woven tabrlca. Printed good, although Belling we I, ar Dot aa strong aa they were last season. Tha cotton goods market retain It Ungth and some manufacturers, omlng to tha high price of cotton, predict an ad vance on certain grade of good mhlcn r now under the market. Thoae who are best coated on the general situation aay with a good deal of confidence that persons ii-blog to anticipate their wants can do so uiiiy so tar aa prices are concerned. lUxdwar Reaaaiaa I araaaita. Thar have been no Important fluctua tlons Id the hardware market for aome little time past. Tbe market 1 tirra on ? 'radically all atapl lines, with prospect avorabla for a continuance of those condi tions for some llttie time. The demand in a wrholeaaJe way haa, of course, been some what curtailed by the warm weather, but all things considered Jobbers report thetr business as being very encouraging. Re tailer a who have been heard from recently aiaa have a good word to say, so that very few eemplairta of any character are being reported. There seems to be no sueciaJ feature to tbe trade, aa the demand 1 gtn- r4 iw ait chasers 01 gooas. Leather baads Glaj Cp Tha feature of tha leather goods trad at th present 41m 1 th advancing tendency of tha market. Jobber ssy that thee find price on medium grsd shoes from TH to L'1 rani per pair higher than they were a short tlma ago. That is oming to the ad vancea la leather, which have been re ported from time to tim through these columns. Th high-priced shoes ar also Bigner, eui to greateai aavanc naa taken fiaca os tha mwlun a-rades. Jobbers aav that so far aa they can see there la no proapect for any reduction for som time to com and fhat retailers are aafe in plac ing their order at thia time. Tbe pruta to retailers have not been advanced ma terially as yet. but ss soon as )ol o-rs x- haunt their present stocks an advance will kav to t-e made. Immediate business with local Jobber" 1 largely confined to alxlng-up order Re tailers so far th: fail have had a very rood trade, so that their stock are getting broken to aom extent, aa la shown hy the - numerous smsll orders coming in. la short time yubbers expect to k e kept busy attending to the Immeaial want of thei rtntom.ra.

The atork market 111 active and generally higher at to day opening, but later relapsed into ex treme duiines and failed to make any repon to th very favorable hank state ment. In th early operation advance wer cored by Baltimore A Ohio. Atchison, St. rauL Reading. Norfolk Western. Union Pacific and bouthern Pacific, a well aa bv Colorado Fuel and Iron and Amalga mated Copper. Elsewhere the list 01s pied liuie animation and no material charges. The Oould etoek lter became a feature by reason of their strength and there w son-. good buying ot Texas Pacific. Wabash common and St. Louis Southwestern The dealing in Colorado Fuel gave rise to reports of competitive buying, and the nock wss again the fea ture of the day in point of activity, though It closed with a fractional loss. Improvement showed by Canadian Pacific was due to Increased earnings, and Chesa peake ac Ohio heid steady in spite of an dvere showing. Th strength ot Cotton Oil resulted Irom the beliet that a con solidation with any kindred company would b of great benefit to lu Only tha most favorable comment was heard re garding th bank statement and trader were at a los to account for the aeii.ng movement which set in with it publica tion. The statement was regarded as a very correct exposition ef local financial conditions. The rain In cath wa fully up to expectation, but the ioan lncrese curie aa a a ur prise and waa doubtless du to ome of tne week ynoieaie operations. The Increase of over lii.Wt'.ft.'O in surplu reserve was especially gratifying and lia bilities of the associated oanks proved to be within ll.WO.nuo of their resources. The market closed somewhat unsettled and verv dull. Net chantre showed imrro ment over the previous day, but with th exception of the movement in the special class, this Including Colorado Fuel. Con solidated Oaa. North American and New lort Air brake, gain were emery irac tlonaL The day business ws barely In excess of 2O0.OO shares Sterling exchange was quoted at a slightly higher figure, but no Importance was attached to thi feature. The nomlnai rate for call money was 2U ner cent. The subtreasury paid out lv,(' for account cf San Francisco and received the earn amount for trans fer to New Orleans. The week waa barren of Important de velopment. It chief features being tha light volume or pusine, partly oue 10 the strength of foreign exchange, which caused groundless fears of early gold ex ports, absolute paucity of public Interest and a vague reeling or uneasiness result lng from diver rumor of growing unrest I seemed determined to check any concerted move for higher price, and activity waa shown only by a lew comparatively un important issue, In which certain pool wer believed to be chiefly interested. Unsuccessful effort were made early in the w eek to create a demand for aom of the minor reorganited industrial. In this connection it i not amis to atata that tha moat powerful of the Industrial concerns has Intimated that tt may be receasary before long to engage In a rate war with com of Its independent rivals. According to the week's movements in the special class it was the general opin ion that only in the case t.f one stock waa the buying general or technically good." The coalers, hard and soft, were moderately firm, but the Impairment suffered by the anthracite roads, together with the knowledge that only a long period of uninterrupted operation nd higher price for their product, can restore these tosses, make that group of stocks less attractive than usual The following are the closing price on the New York Stock exchange: Atrklsoa I Be.

The Increase for the year to date amounts to over 140.000 hesd and the receipts so far this year are about 7S0.iiO head, as against SlS.OOo head during the entire ytar of lnul. From that It will be een chat before the close of next week tne receipts ior ims year wii oe equal 10 the supply of all Isst year. Cornled steers continue In light receipt at this market At Chicago and some either point receipt were quite liberal and as a result nrices Drone in oaa snape. 1 ms market wa Influenced to some extent and caused the commoner and warmed up grades to aell to poor advantage. The price paid were very uneven and a buyer would vry from 25c to f0c on the same bunch or cattle It is nara to teu mucn about the true condition of the market. It I afe, however, to ytiote the warmed up and half fat stuff right close to tVc lower than two weeks ago. The best grades have suffered very little during the last werk or ten days, but they have also been selling rather unevenly. The cow market ruled active and higher the first ef the week, but owing to liberal receipt the market eased off the last of the week and closed 1525c lower than Monday, or about a dime lower than last week Friday. The demand, though, was in pretty good haie most of the week and desirable grades sold without much trouble. Canners were also in good demand and some days there did not seem to be enough to fill order and eor.slderaoly higher price were paid. The week wound up. though, about like .ast week. Good bull and (tags sold In .lust about last week notches, but common kinds were slow and lower. Veal calves have held )ust about steady. 1 1 nere nas oeen a Dig run 01 erocaers ana feeders all the week and as the demand There has been a big run or srocker ana I from the country has been very disapopim- 1 tng tne market has declined on all kinds. the commoner grades. One reason for that js tne eact tn4t ,he quality has been below the average and a pile of common to medium cattle are being carried over Sun- jay. The market on such grades may be quoted Soc lower for the week. The choicer grades have not suffered otilte that rourh. but still even those are HKyUic lower. 1 ne bulk of the good feeders are now selling from S3.40 to S3 N) and It takes something It takes something X un. It Is doubtful fancy to bring from S4.00 up. It Is doubtful I If any cattle will arrive that will be good 1 enougn io onng . 1 ne common csiue are selling mostly irom w io 4,1.20. Deslrsble western beef eteers have lield Just about steady art the week, but the common kinds are a llttie lower. Oood beef has been rather scarce, so that the demand has been fully equal to the occasion. Western feeders, if .choice, are not over loeiic lewer, but the common kinds are fuliy 15p2ic lower. Range .cows are not over a dime lower than the close of last week, but l.Ailic lower than Monday. Hi mIS There was a fair run of hogs here today for a Saturday and. aa ad vices from other points were none too fatorable to the selling Interests, the mar- I Ket opened 24f ic lower than yesterday, I The situation Tmrroved. though, as th i rr.omlng advanced and the close was about steadv with veaterdav. The bulk of the early sales went from S6.70 to Si.72S. with the choice loads selling at S6.7S. The late I arrivals, though, sold mostly at U 72S and S47X The trains were late in gelling in, so that, although trading was active. It was lata before the market came to a close.
