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.

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.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
115 cars; corn, 175 cars; oats, 270 cars; hogs,

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.

PA'PTI.W There were nractlcallv no
fresh arrival ot cattle this morning and
no business was transacted. 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

r rices the first of the week, so that al
hough the feeling has been a little better
since Wednesday, the market Is still con
siderably lower on the average. 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.
