THE OMAIIA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1002. 2i I r t V CONDITION GFOHAHA STKADE vi7o!am ef Bournes for October Broke 111 v PrsTioM Efloords. BUT JTW IMfORTANT CHANGES II PRICES Oatleek for faring Baalaeaa Ortwi More Favorable Each Week mm Jehbers Maklaer Big Prepara tloaa o Itaadle It. T October has been a busy month with Omaha. Jobbers and manufacturers. Each week they have reported buslneas as being very brisk and now that they have figured id the tot il salea for the month, they find that they have broken all previous records Tor October. There hss. or course, oeen some talk about the warm weather Interfere Ing with the movement of winter goods, but as long as jobbers find they are doing mora buslneas than usual they nave rew com- claims to offer. According to advices re ceived frm the country, retallere havs also enjoyed a very nice trade and their atocka are going to pieces at a rapid rate. Jobbers think that it would oniy tage few davs of cold weather to bring in a flood of sorting up orders, as they have already received many more than usual for so early In the season. Taking every thing Into consideration, both wholeaalera end retailers feel that they have good reasons for being well satisfied wltn pre- Valllnar conditions. The markets have fluctuated but 111 tie during the week under review and In fact outside of a few lines of groceries there have been practically no changes worthy of mention. Prices though are firm all long the line, with favorable prospects for their remaining that way tor soma time to come. Caused Good a Coatlaae Straagr. Bo far as the canned goods situation Is concerned, local grocery Jobbers report this mm being one oi trie worst seasons tncy have ever experienced, owing to the diffi culty of getting goods from the pacners. Bo DV-ny of them are short on their packa that they have held back their deliveries until the close or the racking season ana until such time ae they could ascertain what proportion of their orders could be filled. Then, the difficulty of getting boxes and labels at proper times has added to the delay, so that Jobber have been greatly annoyed. Reports have lately been re ceived from California to the effect that packers" will be able to deliver only 75 per cent at their sales ot standard tomatoes. This, It Is claimed, will work still farther hardships on local wholesalers, because al most all of them have sold up to the limit of their purchases. California has not been short on tomatoes for many years, so that thsl report comes as a great surprise.. There have been no'lmportant changes In the market on canned goods, but the tendency M toward higher prices on corn. Tomatoes are still a little weak In the east, but a reaction at any time would causa no V Reports were received last week to the .K . UnnH.u f .hi. --lr Inn.. effect that on Monday of this week loose Muscatel raisins will be advanced, but Just what lines will be affected is not definitely known, but it Is thought that two. three nd four-crown- loose Muscatels will un doubtedly be advanced. It Is natural to suppose that seeded raisins will also be marked up, but as seeders are not working in perfect harmony the advance may not affect the seeded raisins. There has also been an advance in wal nuts and soft shells are now quoted Hfrc above ooenlng prices. All Imported nuts are also very strong, with advances on Drains, ninerts ana aimonas. The first stuamer to arrive with a cargo of new dates was reported in New York last week with lOO.OOO boxes. The first car- load -of these goods will arrive In Omahi some time this week and It Is reported that the aualltv is unusually good. The movement of dried fruits ef all kinds so far this fall has been very satisfactory and has covered the entire line from ordi nary choice to extra fancy stock. The sugar market eased off a little last week, both rawe and refining being affected. In the Jlne of fish, the market on Holland herring Is reported very firm, with an upward' tendency and higher prlcea in tha near future are being predicted. The mar ket en mackeral continues very high and email counts are almost Impossible to ob tain. New Norways have not as yet sr- lived, but are expected In about ten days. There la a big demand for codfish, with prospects favorable lor vtc advance. Owing to the short crop of tomstoes. manufacturers of catsup have found It Im possible to All their contrapta on the cheaper grades. The tendency of the mar ket la naturally upward and well posted merchants are anticipating their wants. The market on beans eased off a little last week, owing to the tendency of buyers to hold back their orders In the hope that lower prices will rule. Local Jobbers, how. ever, think that prices will be higher as soon as buyers And that the market does not decline as rapidly aa expected and that buying will then be active. The cheese market is about the same as It was a week ago, though stocks are very light and many factories have closed down for the season. Higher prices are being predicted for November. So far as the demand for groceries Is con cerned, jobbers nnd no cause tor com plaint. Trade during last week was very heavy and in fact business waa heavier during the entire month of October than ever before. Jobbers were continually rusnea to keep their order filed promptly. House Trade Qatet. House trade with local dry good Jobber nas neen ratner quiet tor the last two weeks. That la partly due to the warm weather and partly to the fact that re tailers are busy at home. Orders, how ever, both direct and through traveling salesmen, continue plentiful and In the aggregate business la in exceas of the same period of last season. That would apply not only to last week, but to last month as well. Spring orders continue to arrive in ivery satisfactory manner and already a great many heavy bills hsve been sold. These orders are mainly for specialties In wash goods, glso In such lines as laces, embroid eries., wniie gooaa ana specialties in fur. ntshlng goods. The market on alt lines of cotton goods continues very Arm, but no changea have taken place during the week under re view and none are being predicted for the near future by these who are well posted on me general situation. . Hardware Active aad Klraa. The hardware market continues vary ac tive. The demand Is exceptionally haavv for all lines of seasonable goods and Job- oers are naving a goo a aeai or rrouoie to . get the goods with which to All their orders. That Is not altogether the fault of manu facturers, for Jobber claim that the rail roads cause a great deal of delay. They say It ia nothing unusual tor a car to be from thirty to Arty days in coming though from the east and It frequently takes from twelve to fourteen days from Chicago. The general market situation la much tha same aa it was a week ago. Wire and nails are holding their own and In fact prac tically all stable lines are quoted the same as they were a week ago. The general opinion is that no important fluctuation will taae piece lor aome time to come. Better Peaaaad for Rabbers. The wet weather of the latter part of last week caused some demand for rubber goods. Jobbers did not feel the effects of It to any extent, but retailers had quite a ' nice trade and It helped them to unload some of the stocks they had on hand. Rubber clothing as well aa footwear waa in ?ood demand. Jobbers, though, do not look or mich business until cold weather acta la and with a normal winter they expect a orisk aemana inrougnoui tne season. Leather goods are moving out quite freely and traveling men aay that retailers' stocks are being rapidly broken and It will not be long before they will have to place quite liberal orders. A cold wava would be very beneficial to the leather goods traae, as people wouia men have te lay aaiaa tneir iigmwcigni snoes. , Fralts aad Prod ace. The season for peaches, prunes snd plums la now practically at aa end. A fei shipments occasionally arrive, but a few more days will see the last of them. Pears are still in good supply and are selling rreeiy, prices ranging irom 11.75 to n a box. New'Xark grapes are still on the market and tire worth tic. Tokava are selling at $1 71 and Malagas at $i.iH'j6 00. Cranberries havedvancd. ewing to the fact that the supply on this market Is not aa heavy a it has been ot late. Wisconsin berries are now arriving and are worth $7.6ij.0O. The prediction la b,lng made that before the end of the aeaaon prlcea w ill go to IvSiwrS 04. There has been no particular changa In the Hat of vegetables and the prices at which the different lines are selling will be rouria in anomer column. There has been no change In eggs and butter, but the market la good and Arm. Tha same Is true of poultry, but dealers are hoping for colder weather, aa they figure It would stimulate the demand, not only fr poultry, but for eggs and butter as weii. Wool Market.

January provisions closed lower. statistics were all against wheat and the market ruled weak throughout the day, with the exception of some eteadintss eariy. Longs again threw a lot of stuff on the market and with no support prices de clined steadily. Large primary receipts ind rapidly accumulating stocks Were the principal Dear features. Belling by the southwest was also a weakening Influence. World's shipments were estimated at about 12,),o00 bushels and a liberal Increase was looked for In the visible supply.

With the lower tendency stop - loss orders became general and theee offerings lent an Impetus to the downward trend. There wast little demand lor May, shorts being about the only buyers, while longs had a considerable amount to offer. Trading in the December option was light ana mere waa a wine nuciuation on limited transactions. The cloee was weak, December closing "SiC lower at .'oVia-mSr. after selling between fr'Hc and 51c. Local receipts were 274 cars, with 67 cars ot con tract grade. oats ruled weak, particularly May, on selling by commission houses, influenced by weakness in other grains.

SEW YORK STOCKS AMI IIOSD9. C'haage from Creditor to Debtor - tloa Excites roarers. NEW YORK. Nov. 1 -With the holiday In London and the coming holiday here. the local market ruled duller and more narrow today. Moderate Inactivity und slightly hlaiier prices were shown at the opening, though there was an undertone of Irregularity. The greatest gains at the opening were In Manhattan, St. Louis & San Kranclsco and Colorado Fuel and Iron. Apparent covering In Reading brought a fractional advance In that stock and it was reported that une Arm of brokers had bid 7Hc for any part of lOc.ituo shares of the common. Other points of early strength Were Rock Island and Canadian Pacific. The special class was most prominent, but fluctuations were Insignificant. Many 01 the standard Issues were neglected. Kan sas City, Port Scott' Memphis, which opened with a 1-pulnt advance, lost all Its gam and more on moderate transactions. The buying of Colorado Fuel was attrib uted to two widely different Issues and was the only feature of the Industrial class. Manhattan was not eustalned. the stock making a net lis. on comparatively heavy transactions of over a Point. The bank statement had not entered very seri ously Into the calculations of traders, yet It was rather better than many looked for and the selling which followed Its publica tion lacked v I hi. The surprising feature of the hank state ment waa the heavy expansion of loans. Last week's Individual statement showed that three of the leading banks carried heavy surpluses, and it is assumed that these institutions put their holdings Into the loan market this week. The gain In cash was due chlelly to the past weeks pavments for government bonus, some of which were purchased too late to figure In the statement of that week. The further Increase of circulation indicates that the banks have been acting on Secretary Shaw's suggestion to strengthen their positions In this particular. For a Satur day there was unueuul activity In foreign exchange. Demand bills were quoted at $4.&W0 to $4.MN, with a fairly good inquiry for remittance by the coming week's steamers. There was some talk of special gold shipments to Australia, but details were not obtainable. Impartial observers were of the opinion that the dullness of tne week was aue to causee iar removea from political considerations. They reason they believe this country has changed from a credit to a debtor ration, and hat Its arrangements abroad are not likely to be liquidated without some strain, has tin questionably excited concern in conserva tive places. it has created a situation which those who ought to know believe must reeult in a drain on the country's gold reserves before the end of ,the year. For eign advices s;ree that England and France, particularly the latter country, by reason of Its International troubles, will soon demand goodly installment of the sums due them. The movements In foreign exchange -during the week indicated that England s debt to France could easily be arranged by direct shipments of gold from New York to Paris. The labor problem also developed Interestingly. There were frosh demands by various podies of train men in the west and the situation on the aciflc s lope became ratner more acute. The attitude of the coal miners In their relations toward the Independent operators was also regarded as an unfavorable clr- umstance. Of the bond markot there Is little to say. xcept that a better, tone prevailed the last of the week. The better tone resulted from aggressive buyiDg by pool traders, though not a few traders reversed their poeltion on the belief that the liquidation ad run Its course.. The protesslouai ele ment was dominant throughout, however. nd there was next to no public or invest ment buying. Including premium and ln- erest the subtreasury had paid out almost 22.0UO.O for bonds under the recent oner of the Treasury department,. The treasury statement for the first four months of the fiscal year ehowe excess or receipts over expenses of $13,&00,000. Call money ranged from 3 to. 7 per cent during the week, the high figures being reported on Friday. The banks were again partial to good commer cial paper In call loans, the rate of which relaxed to 64 pec cent, but later returned to 8 per cent. 11 is estimaiea insi aincm liH.ooo.OOO will be disbursed during the month for Interest and dividends 01 jeaa Ini railroads and Industrial and other cor porations, as against a little over $rt0,0n0,000 n November of last year, 'trading in bonds was In small volume during the week and the movement Irregular on a narrow raJige. United States 2s declined V per cent, as compared wltn tne closing call of last week.

For the week receipts have not been quite as heavy as the previous week, but In excess of the hi me week of last year. The month of Oc tober was the heaviest month , on record, with the one exception of September last. The most noticeable feature, however. Is that the receipts for the year to date equal the total receipts for the year 191. The receipts for the months of November and December will be a total gain over last year and ihere is no longer any doubt but what thla year will go far ahead of the big run of lb93, when 603,400 came were re ceived. As noted yesterday the cornfed steer market has been very uneven all the week. Packers have not taken hold with as much life as they might, but the trouble was that the bulk of the cfferlnas consisted ot short-fed stuff, which seldom sells to good advantage. But while trading nas been rather alow prices on the average are but little different from the close of last week. The cow market has been very satisfac tory all the week to the selling interests. Ttadlne- has been active most of the week and prices stronger. Yesterday some sales men thought they did not do quite as wen as on Thursday, but the total advance for the week amounts to 15('25c. The advance has affected all kinds except the common, 0id canners, such as sell from 31.76 to 82 25. They are on lv about steady with last week. Good fat bulls are about steady for the week, but common kinds and feeders are a little lower. Stagb and veal calves have shown little change. The supply or atocgers ana teeaers nas been more moderate this week and conse quently prices have Improved a little. Any thing at all desirable may safety be quoted 154f25c higher for the week. Even the com mon Kinds nave moved more ireeiy man they did a week ago, so that the market has been In very satisfactory condition. The market on western beer steers nas also held up In good shape. The demand has been filly eyual to tne supply and in fact has apparently been a little In excess. Prices ruled strong each day snd. as com pared with the close of last week, prices look about loiglac higher on the better grades. Common stuff Is not much more than steady. Range cows have also been In K?oa uemana ana an advance ior ineweeg of 1WI- Is reported, blockers and reeed ers also Improved abont the same amount. D. McFar and Wvo. U feeders..

Later In the morning the feeling Improved and tne last sales were only weak to 6c lower. The bulk of the hogs sold from $6.50 to $6.60. and as high as $6.b2i was paid, trading was quite tlve, so that everything that was In was disposed of In good season. The same as usual, however, trains were late in arriv ing. A few loads arrived at about 11 o'clock but by that time buyers had their orders pretty well filled and did not buy them as strong. The late sales were a good deal like the early ones. For the week the supply of hogs has been m9 liberal than for some time past as will be seen from the table above. In fact the supply haa been about the same as for the aame week of laat year, so that the decrease, as compared with last year, has at least been temporarily stopped. The tendency of prlcea has again been down ward, and as compared with the close of last week the decline amounts to login:. Representative sales: No AT. .,..mt ....!. . ...
