CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE
onsider&bls ImproTemsnt Noted Last Im k
ia Demand for Winter Goods.
HIGHER PRICES PREDICTED FOR SUGAR
Retailers It pert Tkaakaglrlas; Trad
a Hp In a- Very Liberal la Spit at
Hlk Prlees that Prevailed
a Moat Llsee f Gooda.
Although ther vrrt only five working
days last week. Omaha Jobbers and manu
facturer report the volume of business
transacted considerably In eicesa of the
previous wrek and also of the correspond
ing week of last year. The cooler weather
which prevailed was probably responsible
to a great extent for the Improvement, but
still Jobbers ray the weather la too warm
to make business brisk. What they want
la a touch of real winter, which will make
It necessary for everyone who moves out
of doors to be clad In heavy clothing from
top to toe. But while they realise that they
Blight be doing more business, they are
not complaining about present conditions,
aa the movement so far thla season has
been very satisfactory and considerably
better than a year ago.
Thrr were about the usual number of
fluctuations In prices last week, but It Is
to be noticed that outside of groceries
there were very few changes. The general
tone of the market on practically ail kinds
of goods Is very firm and present prospects
are that prices will remain firm for some
: time to come. There seems to be a de
mand for all the goods that manufacturers
can produce or that farther can raise, so
that slock are not accumulating In first
. bands.
Look tot aa Advance la ligsr.
The market on refined augar is about the '
same aa It waa a week ago ao far aa quota
I tlons go. Raws, however, advanced a full
I He and the market In both I-ondon and
Sew York Is reported very strong, and It I
la said that Indications are favorable for
higher prices on refined grades at most
any time.
The cheese market shows an advance of
'JifcHc over the price of a week ago. New
. York reports all the factories closed down
for the season. Stocks are practically all
out of first hands and stocks In warehouses
are lighter than they have been for many
years. A large number ol Wisconsin fac
tories are also closed down for the season
and as severe winter weather Is liable
to come at any time, the rest of the fac
tories will soon have to close. That being
the situation, jobbers say that It looks aa
though higher prices wi 1 prevail this season
than for several year past.
Bean ar Vrti&c per bushel higher than
they were a week ago. Stocks are exceed
ingly light, both In the hands of shippers
and buyers In general. There has been a
marked tendency on the part of buyers to
hold off all the season In the hop thst
lower prices would prevail and as a result
the movement so tar has been lighter than
usual. The warm weather has also had
a tendency to curtail consumption, but with
the advent of cold weather Jobbers look
for neavler buying and atlll higher prices.
Th foreign crop has been estimated at
the outride at 40 per cent of last year's
crop and some authorities place it as low
aa 26 per cent.
The principal item In canned good is an
advance of 26c per dosen on California
gallon goods, which Included peaches, pears,
cherrlea and pluma. On apricots there was
an advance of toe per doxen. which makes
th price 60c per doren higher than on
peachee. Th scsrclty of these lines of
gooda and the active demand for them la
th reason given for the higher prices.
Othsr changea In canned goods are of
llttl Importance.
A very active demand developed last
week for foreign dried fruits, including
dates, figs, currents and raisins of all
klnda. Blocks of fancy layer raisins are
said to be practically exhausted and seeded
raisins are moving out very rapidly, so that
th market la very strong for this class of
goods.
Th market on oatmeal In barrels -declined
9c per barrel from the high time,
but reacted and now manufacturers are
asking 15c per barrel and 15e-per -case of
five packages more than at th low tune.
Jobber think that present Indications ,are
favorable for still higher prices.
Persistent reports are coming frOM I Loui
siana regarding the great damage-don to
in ric crop. M win D rerpeoiDerea mat
the rron wraa considerably damaged during
the summer and now It Is claimed that
owing to recent rains all the rice that was
not under cover was more or less damaged.
It looks now as though there will be very.
little cheap rice until tne new crop arrive
and an advancing market 1 expected from
thla Mm on, particularly - on th high
grades.
Dry Goods Moved More Freely
Dry goods Jobbers also report th volume
of business for last week ss being con
siderably In excess of the previous week.
There were not many buyers in the city.
owing probably to the fact that Thanks
giving kept most of the merchants at
.home. Mall orders, however, came In quit
freely and jobbers say that as soon aa
winter weather sets In ther will be a big
reorder business.
Ther has been no particular change in
the market on leading lines of goods, but
those who are posted quote prices firm' all
along th line, with prospects favorable
for their remaining that way for some
time to come. Each week It becomes more
apparent that popular line are getting
care and that retailers In a great many
cases will be disappointed when they re
turn for mor gooda.
About th only change In th hardware
market last week waa the announcement
sent out by manufacturers of another ad
vance In all kinds of stoves. Local jobbers
however, say this advance wlU not affect
retailers be to re tne nrsi or tne year ana
Just how much jobbers will advance their
prices at that time Is not definitely known.
The advance, however, will undoubtedly be
quit an Important on. Merchants have
been anticipating higher prices for some
little time, but wholesalers look for quite
a brisk trade from now until the first of
th year. Other lines of hardware remain
In just about the same position they were
a week ago, with prices firm.
Bo far as the trade altuation Is con
cerned, local jobbers say 'hey have no
cause for complaint. The demand showed
considerable Improvement last week for
cold weather goods and a still better trade
is looked for as soon as winter weather
sets In. .
Robbers Mors Popalar Last M eek.
Th anowbtorms that were reported In
several sections of th country tributary
to Omaha created quit an active demand
for rubbers last week. Orders came In
not only by mall, but by telephone and
telegraph. It seems that a good many
merchants have not aa large stocks on
band as was generally thought, so thst
iobbers look tor a good deal of business
a follow the first general snowstorm or
drop In temperature, Ther haa been very
llttl demand so far thla season for heavy
rubber, so that retailers have the bulk
of their goods still on the shelves. , A
great many bill become due December 1
and for that reason they ar anxious to
reduce their atocks. '
In speaking of th prospects of changes
In prices on rubbers the first of the year
a focal jobber expressed th belief that
there would be very few changes. H Says
there will probably be some readjustments
made, but doea not look for any important
advances or reductions. Of course predic
tions at this time sre purely guesswork.
Leather - gooua ar atlll moving u.ulta
freely for thla aeason of the year. There
Is no special feature to the trade, as mcr
rhanta simply order as thlr stock run low.
Traveling men though are meeting with
good success In picking up spring orders
and so far have done better than ever be
fore, Fralt aad Prodaee.
Ther wss a very active demand last
week for fruits ana vegetables in both a
wholesale and retail way. Jobbers re
ported their Thanksgiving trade better than
a year ago In spite of the rart that prices
on many lines were unusually high. Re
tailers alao aay that they cleaned up their
tocka in good shape and are well pleased
with the outcome of their trails. With ths
exception of cranberries, which are now up
to ta SO to HOW per barrel, ther have not
been many change In price during th
week under review. The prices that wer
established several days before Thanks
giving wer generally maintained. The
quotations on the different Hues now in
fore will be found in another column.
Th poultry market held firm nearly all
the week, as the demand was sufficient to
tak about. all th stock that arrived. Deal
ers cleaned up about all th dressed tur
key they bad at lilc per pound. After
Thanksgiving ther was practically no de
mand for any kind of poultry, but what
Utile did change hand sold as a rule a
trifle lower than before Thanksgiving.
Th egg market continue firm, with sup
plies nun two heavy to meet th demand.
Th earn la true of butter.

for all grs.lt s. Apricots are In moderate

CHICAGO. Nov. 29 Dullness prevailed
today on the Board of Trade and prices In
general were depressed, December wheat
closing Vglc nd May Sc lower. December
corn closed le down and oats HJc lower,
Jsnuary provisions closed unchanged to XVc
unaer yesterday.
Wheat ruled dull. There was little die
position to trade, owing to the Inactivity of
the leading long, and while the early mar
ket was a triite better than yesterday s
close, it gradually weakened and the close
waa near the bottom. The weaknesa in
corn was a depressing Influence and con
tinued liquidation helped to take down the
price. December opened unchanged to Ho
lower at 7tStj74'c and declined until 734a
was reached. The close was 7lc lower at
34'573Sc. May closed Sc lower at 75c,
after selling between 75V7Tc and itV-
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to aSl.OiO bu. Primary receipts were 1,150,000
bu.. compared with l.vii.ooo a year ago.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported receipts
of 12 cars, which, with local receipts of
119 cars, seven of contract grade, made
total receipts for the three points of 1.107
cars, against 1,030 last week and Llu5 a
year ago.
Corn was firm at the opening, th wet
weather throughout the corn belt deterring
the free movement of the grain. Scattered
liquidation, however, soon caused a sharp
decline, but covering by shorts brought
about a rally. The volume of business on
the whole was but moderate. December
closed lc lower at 54c, after ranging be
tween 53c and 5514c. May closed VuSc
lower at 421242&c. after selling between
424c and 43Su43c. Local receipts wer t-6
cars, with thirteen of contract grade.
Ther was considerable selling pressure
In oats and In the absence of any material
support weakness developed and the close
waa lower. Local traders favored the Bell-
Ins: side and there was llttl demand ex
cept from shorts taking profit. December
closed H$TSc lower at 30Tc. after ranging
between 3"c and 31Hc. May closed c
lower at 32v,c. Local receipts. zis cars.
Provisions were strong early on smaller
receipts of hogs and higher price at the
yards. Covering by shorts caused a silgnt
advance, but later In the day selling by
brokers caused a decline and the close waa
easy, with January pork unchanged at
$15. So. January lard closed 24c lower at
$.524, with ribs also ?4c lower at as.iii.

of funds which had been accumulated pre

CATTLE Ther were only a fw cara of
cattle here thla morning and not enough
t-y attract the attention of buyer For
the week receipts show a decrease as com
pared with last week, but one day this
week waa a holiday. Receipts for Novem
ber show a decrease ss compared with Oc
tober amounting to over 40.000 head, but
there 1 an Increase or about 15,000 bead as
compared with. November, 1901.
While th tdtal receipts of cattle were
lla-ht thla week there were mor cornfed
steer received than during any week in
several months. EeaCh week the quality,
of course, shows some Improvement,, but
as a rule th cattle that have been coming
forward were only fed a short time and
could hardly be classed a fat cattle. Pack
ers took hold of the better grades with
mora life this week and, while prices have
been very uneven the market has ad
vanced 10l5c, with soma sales looking even
better than that. The commoner grades,
though, have Improved but very little.
The cow market nas aisc improved a
llttl this week. It Is to be noticed, how
ever, that the greatest Improvement has
been on canners and grass cows, which can
safely be quoted 1015c higher. 'J he gen
eral run of corn feds have shown no quot
able advance, but in this connection it
should be remembered that the comfeds
that have been coming have been of inferior
quality and no test ot the market on cnoice
grades has been made. Just how much-a
choice bunch of cornfed cows and belters
would bring is problematical.
Choice bulls are about steady for the
week, but boloena bulls are. If anything
little lower, uooa veal caivea are also
about steady.
The atocker and feeder trade waa in very
bad shape the first of the week and prices
reached the lowest point of the Season.
The demand, however. Improved toward the
close of the week and prices likewise lm
proved, so tnat tn ouik or tne oeciin nas
been regained and very tew catu win be
carried over Sunday.
There have been comparatively tew west
ern beef steers Included tn tha receipts
this week, but in spit of that fact the
market cannot be quoted any more than
steady. Buyers claim that the western
steers are not killing out to aa good ad
vantage aa earlier tn the season and as a
result they want to buy them lower. Range
cow ar lotfiac higher tor the week, stock
era and feeders were considerably lower
tha first of the week, but th decline has
sine been la rarely regained
hous Tner was lust a fair run or nogs
her today and th market advanced 5J
10c. At th start a few loada aold tnat
wer not over tc higher, but after tha
first round or so the general market waa
74c higher. Th long string of the salea

load weighing 318 pounda. Trading waa
quite active, so tnat cverytning onereu on
the morning market was disposed of tn
good season. A few cars, however, arrived
about 11 o'clock and those did not sell
uult as well.
For th week receipts show a decreas
aa compared with last week and for
November there Is a decrease' aa compared
with the aame month of last year amount
ing to over vu0 head. As compared with
October of this year, however, there is an
increase amounting to about 40. two head.
