NEW FISCAL YEAR BRIGHT
Dun's Beet Hope in ConMrratiim Bred of
UniaUled Conditions.
WEATHER HAS ALSO AIDED TRADE

NEW YORK, July $. R. O.' Dun A Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trad tomorrow will
say:
A new fiscal year has commenced un
der more favorable? aupices than appeared
posollilo a short time ago, the Improve
ment being due In no small measure to
the greater conservatism that was an out
grow Hi of unsettled conditions.
Seasonable weather lias also contributed
to the better distribution of merchandise,
besides encouraging buoyant sentiment In
the agricultural utstrlct. Railway earn
ings and output of pi Iron were larger,
while Insolvencies were fewer. Karning.4
of railways thus far reported for June sur
pass last year's by lo per cent and thoas
of 1H01 by IS. 4 per cent.
More Inquiries for pig Iron have appeared
and although the actual contracts are for
comparatively small quantities, the tone la
distinctly better. Bessemer Iron Is not off
ered for the third quarter by the associa
tion, and orders accepted for earlv deliv
ery are only taken by middlemen who have
Mtocks on hand. The situation liai been
complicated during the week by the strike
of coal miners, wnlch threatens to restrict
output In southern Iron. Insofar as quota
tions are concerned, this Is a sireng t.ie.i:n;
factor, and Is also calculated to bring out
much business that Is tieing held back In
expectation of better terms.
Steel rails are still the best feature In
the market for finished products, fully
ouo.ouo tons being now booked for net
year's delivery and many orders for HOi
will bo carried over. Structural material
moves freely, considering the labor situa
tion In the building traues. while there Is
notable activity in bars, and especially for
agricultural Implements and machinery
works.
Foot wear manufacturers In New Eng
land have receivW liberal supplementary
orders for fall shoes Irom eastern Jobbers
In addition to a lair supply of coutracU
already on hand.
A quiet season In the leather market has
produced small concessions In prices of
hemlock sole and oak belting butts, while
harness leather is now the most active fea
ture. Both domestic and foreign hides av
erage a small fraction lower tor the week,
with a large transaction in goods damaged
by Hoods the top feature.
Slight advances are recorded In some dl.
visions of the cotton market, but the
changes are practically nominal.
TRAUK OITLOOK IMPROVE!.
Bradstreet Says Warm Weather Makes
Brisker Sales of Summer Goods.
NEW YORK, July 8,-Bradstreefs to
morrow will say:
Warm forcing weather ha been the key
note of the situation this week. Inducing
lavorable conditions for the winter wheat
harvest, soecial urogress by corn and cot
ton, enlargement In retail trade In summer
goods, heretotore backward, and what is
most Important of all, bringing about a
much more cheerful feeling as to the future
outlook for business generally. Additional
reports as to the past six months are quite
favorable, despite earlier unfavorable con
ditions. Juno bank clearings, though aided by
Mock, grain and cotton speculation, large
semi-annual disbursements and several
large deals have not been wholly dependent
thereon for the marked expansion shown
over lust year. Failures returned are like
wise lavorable, in that six months' em
barrassments were the smallest In num
ber reported In twenty years, though com
paratively large suspensions, widely sep
arated and generally unrelated to each
other, swelled liabilities 6 per cent above
those of ast year. Uenerally speaking, the
second half of the year opens auspiciously.
A slight Increase In sugar, designed to
encourage backward demand. Is noted.
Yellow pine and white pine lumber Is
weaker In the west, but unchanged In the
east, while hard woods are generally nrmly
held.
Aside from the slightly better feeling
noted In Iron and steel circles last week,
developments ore few. New buying is
till small, though better than for some
weeks tast. Better cron reports and larce
rail orders for next year, 6,000,000 tons in
all, are a source 01 connoence. f oreign
Iron and steel are apparently out of the
market to stay. Hardware is in better de
mand, though not as good as a year ago,
but manufacturers are reported to have
agreed to maintain prices at last year's
rates. Copper Is weak, with rumored sales
at cent reduction, and tin Is lower
on llnuldatlon.
Shoe shipment last week were among
the heaviest In years.
Business failures In the United States
for the week ending July 2, number 163
against 171 last week, 13 In the like week
of 1BU2, 145 In Will, 144 la 1900, and 136 In

week ending July 2, aggregate 2,Wt,682 bush
els against a.Ms.152 last week. 3,211,215 this

Low Level ef Sales Resaltlaa;.
NEW YORK, July 1 Many members of
the stock exchange who had petitioned
the board of governors to make today a
holiday Ignored the session today and went
out of town. The handful of members who
attended the session today traded among
themselves almost exclusively, and there
was scarcely an echo of the outside wor'.d
In the board room. As a consequence to
day's dealings fell below 200.000 shares to a
new low level of activity for the year. The
ract that the grain and provision markets
were closed for a holiday Increased the
apathy in the stock market, owing to the
large Importance attached at this time to
the progress of the crops. Whatver specu
lative interest was diverted irom tne neia
seemed tn ra Into the cotton market, which
divides witli It at present the chief specu
lative Interest. There was feverish activity
In the cotton market over the publication
of the government s estimate or tne con
dltlon of the crop as of June 26. But the
cornered condition of the staple leaves lit'
tie room for Just Inferences of crop condl
tlons from the price movement. The lm
provement tn the condition of the crop
since the last report was received with
satisfaction In the stock market. Neither
this Influence nor any other caused any
thing but a trivial movement of prices.
The oank statement waa without apprecia
ble Influence, although the showing was a
weak one. The increase In loans waa mod
erate, In view of the heavy operations of
the turn of the fiscal year, but the decrease
of $4,502,900 In cash reserves was a disap
pointment. Of this $3,012,000 went to the
sub-treasury, the operations of that lnstl
tutlon having failed to reflect the govern
ment Interest disbursements until today,
when It had a debit at the clearing house
of 11,061,125. There are said to havebeen
large shipments of money to New Orleans.
Cincinnati, Bt. Louis. Boston and Canada
during the week. There were very few
features in tne market. rn
Hocking Valley waa exolali
ficlal announcement of 105 for the pooled
minority stockholders. These minority hold
ers at one time cherished the hope of a
guarantee of 4ft or 6, per cent dividends.
The announcement of an advanced rate of
express charges was followed by a fall of
t points in United states Express. Demand
for remittance by tomorrow's steamers
advanced the rate of sterling exchange,
and the figures of the week's export of
J rain showing a decrease of several hun
red thousand bushels, the sagging tend
ency of the early part of the day gave
way to a hardening later In the day. The
cloning was Arm.
The pond market was dull and Irregular.
Total sales, par value, 11,900.000.

vance of 3 points. The declines were on
he near positions, with Auftust showing
the greatest weakness on the better cables,
accompanied by reports thst short notices
were pressing on tne mnraei in liveipuoi.
This brought out considerable selling and
hort v a decline of 20 no tits was apparent
on August, with the late months showing
comparative steadiness In spite of the tine
weather as a result of uncertainty over
crop prospects and the government report.

rived Hefitemher was selling at 11.52c and
October at 10.36c, while August had recov
ered to 12.68c. When the government .in
ures were announced placing the average
for the entire belt at 7.1. against 74.1 the
Drecedlns month, there was great excite
ment and considerable activity. The figures
were Just about an average or popular
pinion and conaenuentiy two tactions were
disappointed, with the result that early
buyers on expectation of condition around
75, liquidated, while those who had sold on
expectation of a report placing the condi
tion around 80 per cent covered. The Imme
diate result on prices, however, was a
hnrn hrenlc. which affected cnicny tne
September and October options. These sold
down from 13 to 7 point" In the first few
minutes, with the near options neglected
and the positions for the later months rela

the market turned very weak under rumors

are purchased today will not be killed until
Monday. It was a slow market, but prices
were not far from steady.
The receipts today were largely made up
of beef steers. Buyers did not take hold
with a great deal of life, but still tne cattle
kept changing hands and about everything
sold In yesterday's notches. Some sales
looked a shade stronger and others a shade
easier, but there was not enough change to
be worthy of mention. For the week the
market is generally 1015c lower and 20c
lower In extreme cases. The decline has
been general on all kinds. Choice cattle are
quotable from $4.80 to $5.26, fair to pood
from $4.50 to $4.75 and common kinds from
$4.60 down. . . .
The cow market was uneven today, but
generally steady; Good stuff sold readily,
but the common and medium kinds were
plow sale, the same as they have been all
the week. Aa compared with the close of
last week, the choice grades of cornfed
cows and heifers are not a great deal
lower, but all others have suffered con
siderably. As a general thing the decline
Is put at right around a quarter, with
extreme cases a little more. It has been
a very uneven market all the week and
the prices secured for grassers and medium
cornfeds nave oeen largely a mmicr ut
luck. Canners especially have been hard
tn dlsoosa of. but they are not u great
deal lower for the week, as they have been
low sellers for some little time, uney sen
mostly from $1.76 to $2.60, fair to good
grass cows go from $2.75 to $3.00 and good
to choice mostly from $3.00 to $3.25, with
fancy grades from that up. Fair to good
corn i."1 sell largely from $3.25 to $3.76 and
good ) choice from $3.75 to $4-2o, with
fancy grades from that up.
Good fat bulls have held nearly steady
all the week, but stock bulls have been
dull and lower. Veal calves are about 60c
lower. Good veals are now selling around
$6.00 and $5.26.
There were not enough stock cattle on
sale today to talk about. The tendency of
prices has been downward this week, as
the demand from the country has been
very limited, ihe most of them have sold
luij,2oc lower than last week. Representa

iinns There waa a fair run of hoes here
today and the market eased off a little in
sympathy with the decline at other points.
As compared with yesterday's gem-ral
market, the decline amounted to Just about
a nickel. As compared with the way
huvera were bidding late yesterday, the
market today was about steady. The bulk
of all the salea went at $5.50 and $5.624.
with a top at $5.60. Trading waa quite
active from start to finish and everything
waa disposed of In good season. The late
sales were mostly at $5.50.
Th- tendency of prices has been down
ward all this week, with the exception of
Tuesday when there was a slight reaction.
As compared with the close ot last wtek,
however, the net loas amounts to about
loc. Representative sales

sheep 011 sale today, and, while some sale
were n shade easier, the market could l;e
quoted about slPHdy. The demand was
hardly as good as usunl, owing to tlio
act that no killing will be done until
Monday. Practically everything that ar
rived, though, was disposed of in good
season. Idaho lambs brought $5.50. Idaho
ewes and wethers, rrlxed. $.175, and Idaho

As compared with the close of last week,
there Is not a great deal of cliaiiK In the
prices being pitld for good stuff. The mnr
ket. however, has been very uneven all
the week nnd receipts have been so Unlit
that It is difficult to tell much about tlio
true, situation. Some sales are undoubtedl v
steady with the close of last week, while
others look a quarter lower. In mot case
the decline has been the greatest on the
common stuff.

Fourth of July has cornered the market.
Even the unemotlopal banana took the
craie and went up 25 cents per bunch, but
quickly recovered Itself and Is back at the
same old $2.26, which has marked It this
season. But It took Just four extra oar
loads of the Spanish-Americans to supply
the holiday demand (or expert decorators
of shop windows, picnic lunches and push
carts. Consumers who dp not speak Span
ish may not know It, but the bananas are
of three casts, the Port Limont, or aristo
cratic! plantain, the Chlriqut and the Cor
tes, which Is the low class peon.
The volatile California lemon haa felt the
holiday erase and will spill Its blood as
-pink lemonade In the war against thirst.
but the volunteers are drawing a bounty
of 60 cents additional to the box. The hot
wfather and the short crop will enable the
lemons to keep the figure up somewhat,
although. It may drop "two bits," as they
say In the lemons' own country. The
Limonera family are the ones you should
know, aa they are said to stay by a friend
through more hardship than any other
lemon. They get paid for It, too, at about
$6.26 a box to the $4.60 of the others.

Tax Commissioner Fltsgerald and Ills
deputies worked all day yesterduy and
tar Into the night making totals in tho
VMS tax books in order that a completed
report may be sent to the city council
Monday night. It will take the commis
sioner n t,-. Mnmluv aft.rnnnn tn enmnleta
his returns. When this Is done the council
win be In a position to go ahead and make
the annual appropriation and the levy.
Those who have been figuring an the
valuation at 318,000.000 are confident that
the city can get along this year with a 0
mill levy. This will be a slight reduction
from the levy of last year.
The Issuing of 170,000 refunding bonds
will cut down the interest account consid
erably, but at the same time provlHlon will
have to be made for taking care of a
nember of outstanding bonds, which will
fall due this year. Then there Is the bill
of the Omaha Water company, which
amounts to over $12,000. Officials of the
company assert that this bill must be paid
In full before any more fire hydrants will
be located. If It Is possible more money
will Le provided for the water and llght
Ina funds. The overlap in the Are and po
lice funds will be taken care of out of the
coming bond iitsue, but even with theso
funds free from debt the Fire and Police
board requests a levy sufficient to give
.0i0 for the maintenance of the two de
partments. With a levy of 9 mills and the provision
made for tho overlap the city will be In
good financial condition and may possibly
be able to get through the fiscal year
without an overlap In any of the funds.
Advertising Bonds.
City Clerk Shrlgley placed In the Omaha
Daily Bee yesterday an advertisement for
bids on $70,000 refunding bonds. Proposals
Will be received by the clerk nr. tnKr.ee.
on July 13. All bids must be In writing
and must be unconditional. A certified
check for $3,000 must accompany nil bids
as an evidence of good faith. In case a
bid Is accepted payment In full muBt be
made within twenty days from the dato
of sale. The city reserves the right to
reject any or all bids.
(talet Fourth Promised.
Ther will be no market at the stock yards
today, and olthounh all stock arriving will
be yarded and fed, only a few men will be
kept on duty. At the packing houses only
enough men will, be retained to keep the
Ice machines going. AH of the banks and
the city offices will be closed all day and
there will be only one delivery 0f mall.
A no arrangements have been made for

last night to camp out until Monday
morning.
