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.

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.

CATTLE There were a few cattle In the
yards this morning, but not enough to
make a fair test of values. 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.

HOGS There was a fair run of hogs here
today for a Saturday, and the market
opened 6iuloc lower. 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:.

SHEEP Three csr came In this morning
but they were sold tu arrive al steady
prlcea, so that a teat of the open market
Ski not mane, for the wet-at receipts have
bteu- very liberal, showing a gaiu both
over Isst week and over the same week cf
last rear. The rereiptx (or the ye.ir to
date are imw over l.i.i.i head, as against
1 :tM41 head for Ihtf entire year of 11, S'j
there will be more than two months In-
rc;i.e ocr last )eur.
The market ha been In vcrv satisfactory
condition this week, so far as fat stuff Is
concerned. Altho'igh receipts were verv
liberal, there was comparatively little sttinT
that waa good enough for killers snd the
market ruled flrm and acilve all the week.
Vs compared with the ilose of last week
I lie market -n desirable grade ran ssferv
be qimted steady to strong. Umbi have
shown more strength thnn sh.-cp. as there
have been very few good Umbs on saK.
The feeder market, however, has eased
off a little In view of the enormous supply.
The demand was fairly liberal, but hardly
equal to the supply the llrst of the week.
At the close or the wecK, however, there Is
very little stuff unsold, but sellers had to
clean up at " deiiiue of l.V?i23c. as com
