0 THE OMAILV DAILY BEE: SUyDAT, fAU0U6T. 16, 1003. 19 r CONDITION OF Oil ABA'S TRADE ImmediaU Buiinesi V.ry Batisfactory for . the Time of Year. PRICES FIRM ON NEARLY ALL LINES Fall Trad Open lag la Good Shape sad Jobbers aad Mannfartorers All Confident They will Uo m Bl Baslaess. . Considering tha tlma of year, Omaha Jobbers and manufacturer did a very sat isfactory business last weeK. The Id, of course, rather between-season period In ..vat Illira. mm lillllllLI II AUO W1 piKVUlSIIJ a thing of the past so far us wholesalers are concerned, while tall b.islnen Is scarcely In full swIiik yet. In a short time. however. It is expected that fall buyer will be arriving- in Urge njmbrrs and In lact a great many are expected this week The rate of a fern and a tilth Ik now in force and that never falls to bring the merchants to market. Jobbers are Bull confident of a brisk fall trade In spite of the backward rondit.on of the corn croo and retailers who have been In the rliy this week also seem to be confident of doing a good business In fall and winter lines. taking the situation as a whole. those best posted on general ' conditions uiinx tnere is no cause (or alarm regard ing future business, but, on the contrary, look for continued prosperity and good, healthy markets. There have been very few market fluctua tions of importance during the week tinder review. Groceries have moved back and forth to some extent, but other lines are oiling In Just about the same notches they were a week ago. Collections are reported vary sausruciory tor tnis tune ox year. Oatmeal Selling Higher. There was an advance In the price of oatmeal last week amounting to 26 cents ier uarrei ana loa per nve-poutia coxes This advance was caused by the uncer talnty of the oat crop, and from present Indications It Is thought thut the opening trices on new goods, which will be quoted y the mills September 1, will be no mwer than present prices for Dot stock. Syrups are In a very strong position anil, while no actual advances have taken nlace. the rellneries are predicting higher prices In tho near future. This is no uoubt owing 10 tne recent cool weather, which Is un favorable for the corn crop. V 1th better weather the situation, of course, may lm provo. The sugar market Is In a very strong fiosltton, but no changes in ruling prices isve gone Into effect since last report. The demand Is very heavy and as a result mgner prices are being freely predicted. the recent advances In the nrlce or La i fornla canned goods have made an active market on those lines and as shluments of green goods are very heavy, an advance In peaches and pears would cause no sur prise. . The situation with canned corn remains the same as It was a week ago, nothing Dfing offered dv the canners from anv source. It Is claimed that the acreage of sweet corn baa been cut down this year 25 per cent in towa ana about 40 per cent If, New Tork. Peas are In active demand and ruling ;rlcee are 7Vi910 cents per dosen above the pening prices. The dried fruit market la also reported otlve, particularly on new apricots and peaches, both of which advanced VtfH cent on choice goods since the opening prices. There Is also a very firm feeling on prunes ror luture delivery and the sen era! opinion Is that present prices will not only be sustained, but advanced on Santa Clara prunes before they are ready for shipment. . ' There Is nothing new to report regarding the coffee and tea situation, aa prices are practically tha same as they have been for some time past. Regarding the condition of trade local Whoaale grocers report the demand for all seasonable lines as being very heavy, with prospects favorable for a continued heavy consumption lor some tuna to come. Hosts Trad More Active. Ther were mora dry goods buyer on the market last week than have been In Omaha since the rush ot spring trade came to a close. Still more are expected this week, however, as a large number have expressed their Intention of taking advan tage of the rates made bv the railroads f a fre and a fifth. Wholesalers say mojr are raucn eacouragea over trie way au Dusinese is opening ana everything -a I present Dointa to a. vet V successful Sanson Retailers are confident that they will do fully their usual amount of business, even though the corn crop should be a little Short and aa a result their orders are lib ral. jobbers are filling their advance order aa rapidly as possible and before long the bulk of them will have been flipped. There 1 nothing particularly new to re old of the cotton market. Desirable goods are getting mora soars every day owing to the large number of mills that have been nut down ror several weeks with the num ber Increasing every dav. There la cer tainly no prospect of any relief until the new crop of ootton Is on the market and even then It will take many months for manufacturer to catch up with their or ders. The outlook, then, for a continued firm market for ootton goods 1 considered very la.voraoie. Hardware Quiet and Unchanged. The demand for hardware at this time oi year la usually not very heavv and thl year is no eaceotion to the a-eneruJ nil. There I very little demand for such lines aa lawn mowers and refrigerators, while It Is moat too early to sell fall goods such as stove pipes, stove poaras ana coal sc ut iles, it will not be vtirv lona. hniv. before the demand for fall goods will show a oig improvement, in tne meantime stapi lines are selling fully aa well aa could be expected. The demand for nails, builders' hardware and that olass of aoods has been considerably damaged by the labor troubles which have existed so generally throughout the country and aa a result the demand for those lines has been somewhat of a disappointment throughout the season. Barb wire la moving as well as could be expected for the middle ot August, while the demand for plain wire la unusually heavy. The in creased demand fur telephonea la respon sible In a large measure for the present scarcity of the plain wire. Prices on screws have been readjusted to some extent of late, but the changes made have not been at all radical. The hardware market as a whole is In a very healthy condition, with ynuoi urm un practically ail lines. In the line of farm Implements trade at E resent Is a little quiet. The buggy trad I about over 'with, but the demand was of very satisfactory proportions. The time Is at hand when farm wagons should begin to sell freely, but Jobbers are not figuring on any very large demand this season. Plows for fall use are selling well and in dications are favorable for a continued liberal demand. Better Demand for Leather Goods. The demand for fall footwear showed a Mg Improvement lat week, as a great many mure buyer were In the city than have arrived for some time past. They all had a favorable word to say regarding , the outcome of their summer's business and. aa a general thing, they reported their stocks woll cleaned tip. The osder that have been placed so -far for fall are fully as large as usual and as a result Jobbers expect to enjoy a nice business. At the present time they are shipping out their advance orders for both leather and rub ber goods, but owing to the large number of orders that were placed it will take ome time to ship them sll in spite of the fact that all the houses ax working their men overtime. Frelte aad Prod ace. Titer waa a very liberal demand all last week for fruits, In spit of the fact that California lines are selling unusually high for this time of year. The reason for the hlrh prices Is found In the fact that the fruit crop all through the east was a great uisappiuiiinieni ana as a result uaiirorm la culled upon to supply the east, aa well aa the west. It does not look as though prices could be much lower before shlo- inenta begin to arrive from Colorado and Idaho which will relieve the demands now beiug made upon California. A few blackberries arrived on the mar ket moat every day last week, but It Is ttiougni tne supply is now practically x haunted. There is nothing particularly new in the vegeiaoi line, although It becomes mora apparent each week that Potatoes are sroina- to be scarce and that I lie fanner with a good crop will be strictly in luck. The ruling price now la 7u to 80 cents tier uunnei. The eg market is a little firmer than It was a week sko. good stock being quiil-'d at 14 cent a 1'oultrv Is a trifle 1,1. Inr -.! butter Is also a shade better than It was a Week ago. It. I.eeta Grata and Previsions. 8T. LOUIS, Aug.

OMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL Bullish Condition! in the Northwest Send Wheat Upwards. NET RISE IS A FULL HALF CENT Cora I qalet on Favorable Crop Hews ad Shows No Change Oats and 'revisions Make (light Losses, CHICAGO. Aug. 15. The wheat market was again decidedly bullish today and prices aavanced sharply early In tne ses sion. Later there waa a reaction, although nn close was strong, with September up 4'uSc. September corn was unchanged. Outs was 4u4c down, while provisions cloned from fee to 4c lower. There was a big uemand, due to larger demands and the cash situation In the northwest, and the market opened strong with September SdiHc to Nc higher at (U-too to So4'SJ!e. Shorts covered ireely eariy in tne day, and with considerable buying by the bull Leaders on the higher outside markets and Minneapolis being especially strong, cash wheat thers selling at $1.02 per bu. Prices advanced rapidly, Septem ber selling up to itvc within a tew min utes from the opening. Commission houses sold on the rise, and much of the gain was lost, although at no time did the market show any Indication of weakness. The lat ter part of the session showed more steadi ness, and September closed at 634c a net gain of 4'uSc. Clearances of wheat and nour were equal to 404,000 bu. primary re ceipts were small at 6Zl,0u0 bu., against l,ut4,nuo bu. a year ago. Minneapolis and -Utilutn reported receipts of lli cars, which with local receipts of M cars 17 of contract grade made the total receipt for the three points of 1W cars, against 247 car last week and 611 cars a year ago. Corn was aulet and tha undertone was easy, although the strength in wheat served to steady prices somewhat. The weather In the west continued favorable, and coun try advices mostly told of Improvement In the crop. The movement was still light and the cash demand was better. After selling between 62-V624c and 5240 Sep tember closed unchanged at 824c. Local receipt were 177 cars, with 13 of contract grade. There were no important features in the trading In oats, and prices held barely steady. There was further selling by some or the local Duns, put tne demand was about equal to the offerings. The strength In wheat was the main supporting feature. The close was easier, with September down ,c at 34 '4 c, alter ranging between ana ."ic. Local receipts were 8!4 cars. Provisions were again weak, with llaul- datlon the -feature. In both lard and ribs the selling of September and the buying of October continued. A firm hog market had a steadying influence, receipts of hogs being smaller and hngs at the yards a trine lower. September pork closed with 4c low er at $13.00; September lard wns off 5f74o at $9,564. and ribs were down 7460.

London Palls Price Down nt Onealna;, bnt Later They Rebonnd. NEW TORK, Aug. IB -Operation In to day' stork market were made up largely of professional trading, an Important pro portion of the Stock exchange membership having left the city for an end-of-the-week holiday. The professionals were inclined to work for a reaction, owing to the ra- Cldlty of the week's recovery in the mar et, which might be assumed to have built up a vulnerable account on the long side of the market. London evidently took the snme view of the situation, and had made inroads on last night s prices here before our opening. Th selling by the arbitrage operators quickly carried prices down to the London levsl. There was also free proflt-taklng In Amalpamated Copper, at tracted by yesterday's late spurt. After the London selling was completed there was a pause and then a vigorous recovery, which retrieved nractlcallv all the losses. This was apparently In anticipation of a very favorable bank statement. The state ment did not meet tnis expectation. 1 ne loan contraction. In view of the week's ugmented buyln of securities, mignt five beetr accorded an unpleasant sur prise, but the sentiment of the market seemed more Influenced by cash where a considerable gnln had been hoped for. The market sold off again to about the lowest, with net losses of a point or more for oma of the principal active storks.

For the week receipts show an Increase over last week amounting to nearly 3.0U0 head, but as compared with the same week of lost year, tnere is a decrease ot nearly tne same amount. For the year to date, however, there Is an Increase of over 140,000 head. The market for corn fed steers nas been in good shape thl week and in fact price for good stuff are back to the hign point of the year, or about where they wer two weeks ago. ins aavance ior tne ween, amounts to IbUZbo on all desirable grades. The kinds that come In competition with the western grassers may not be quite that much bigner, but still even tnose nave im proved considerably. Tho top price of the week, 36.40, was paid on Frlds y for a strictly choice bunch weighing 1,564 pounds. The supply of beef cattie tnl week has been none too heavy to meet the require ment ot the local demand and as a result. the market has been very satisfactory to the selling Interests. Good to choice corn fed may be quoted from 85.00 to 85.40, fair to good from 84.60 to 85.00 and common stuff, from that price down. Tho oow market has been very uneven all the week and for that reason there is much difference of opinion regarding the position of price aa compared with tho aia a wee a ago. it win oe rememDereu, V.. .

Owing to tne unevennesa in tne prices paia some sale look much better than others, but taking the market as a whole prices are not far from a quarter lower than they were a week ago. All kinds have suffered In thl decline. Canners ar selling largely from 31.50 to 32.26, fair to good cows from 83 26 to 82.76 and the better grades of grass ers sell mostly from 32.76 to 83 .26, with an occasional choice bunch bringing more than that. Corn feds sell up to 84 25. Bulls, veal calves and stags nave not changed much all the week. The bulk of the bulls sell from 82.00 to 33.00 and calves from 34.00 to 35.00. There nave been more stock cattle on sale -thl week than any time in many months and the demand waa also a little better. About the middle of the week the market wa safely ltKal&o higher, but as is apt to be the case, the market eased off a llttl toward the close, so that price are about where they were a week ago, Com mon stuff ha been rather hard to dispose ef all tne week. Tne duik ot tne rsir to good cattle sell from 33.00 to 33.60. with the better grades selling largely from 33.60 to 33.75 and as high Is 84 00 was paid thl. week. The market on western grass steers suf fered a decline, the first of the week In the face of heavy receipts, but sfter Monday and Tuesday the feeling was better and toward the close of the week there were practically none on sale with which to make a test of the market. The general opinion was, however, that had anything been offered It would have sold safely l(Xd 16c higher. Rsnge cows and stockers and feeders fluctuated back and forth about the same a noted above' for native. HOGS There was a moderate run of hogs on sale this morning and the general mar ket could be quoted strong to a nickel higher. . The lightweights sold to the best advantage and at tha opeing of the market were mostly a nickel higher. The heavies, however, did not move quite so freely, and sold strong to a nickel higher. The heavy, weights sold mostly from 86.20 to 35.22H, though some heavy, coarse hog had to sell down to 35.16. The medium weights sold mostly from 36 25 to 36.80 and the choice lightweights sold from 85.30 to 35.40. The close of the market was not as active, and It anything a llttl weaker, especially on the heavy hogs. For the week receipts show an- Increase over last week amounting to about 6,000 head. As compared with the same week of last year however, there Is a decrease of about 3.000 head. Prices have moved up and down quit rapidly during the week, but the tendency has been upward, and a net gain over the elnee of last week of about loyuM is notea. Representative sales: H. A v. Sh.
