IKRKET CONDITIONS VERY SATISFACTORY
Itattstles lkw Rail! Decrease la

Dtatai, I Higher.
The warm weather of laat week brought
about a, crest change in the outlook for
future business. It la now an assured fact
that there whl be a Terr fair corn crop,
taklnc the state aa a wnole. and tht is
an ouniness men consider necesrary for a
Successful rear. Retailers who have been 1
in wjw tnjr io., met lew aaya nave expre.-s o.
themselves as more than pleased w.th the
prospects for future business and J bb-rs
ay that the si as of merchants' orders
would Indicate that they are counting on a
record-breaking demand. Hundreda of re
tailers who have been holding oft all the
fall are now placing heavy orders, so that
trade last week with local Jobbers was the
beat It haa been any time this mon'h. A
brisk demand la also expected for this week
and next.
There have been about the usual number
of market rhanges during the week under
review, but none of them have been at all
radical. The markets as a whole seem to
be In a ery healthy condition and with the
favorable-outlook for a heavy demand all
over the country during the following yenr
the prospecta of any material reduction In
the prices of leading staples are considered
cry remote, while Indications for Mgler
prices on a number of lines are very favr r
able. Thoee beat posted say with a gond
deal of confidence that merchants are safe
In anticipating their wanta at present
prices.
Collections are also In very satisfactory
condition and local Jobbers report very few
feed accounts on their books. Retainers as
a class throughout tne territory tributary
to Omaha have had a very successful sea
son and are stronger financially than ever
before. This la shown conclusively by t-.e
tncresae In the number of bills being dis
counted overy day.
Refined togar Steady, Raws Higher.
The demand for groceries In a wholesale
way la reported aa being of very eatlsiac
tory proportions. The demand la general
for all seasonable lines sr.d stilus are
heavier than they were a year ago at this
time.
Tne general market Is In a good strong
position and a few fluctuations have taken
place since last report'. Among there Is an
advance of a full 1-lBc on raw sugars, while
reAned grades have not changed, 'lho de
mand la reported aa being very heavy for
even this time of tne year and piospecl3
are that it will Continue that way for the
next two or three weeks.
The bean market Is also In about the
me position it was a week ago. It la s.lll
ery difficult to estimate the damage done
by the cold and wet weather of a week or
ten day ago.
The cheese market advance! c list
week, owing to a continued heavy export
demand, together with the unfavorahle
weather throughout Wisconsin, which has
reduced the milk supply fully one-half.
Owing to the fact that the season Is now

the middle of October.
The coffee market continued to advance
and dealrable roasting grades are reported
carce. New arrivals of the 19B crop of
coffees are opening up unsatisfactorily, the
beans being small and off in color. It it
expected, however, that the later arrivals
will prove better.
On account of the well developed fa t
that corn Is going to be a very light park
Jobbers In the eaat continue to buv heavily
wherever they can secure offerings and
at price from 2Vt3 to 5c per dozen above
last week. Tomatoes are unchanged, but
very Arm for full standard qmiltty. Cali
fornia canned gooda are still In active
demand, but stocks are so badly broken
that it la Impossible for buyers to get
whaC they want.
Reports from the coast show that new
4red Alaska salmon la selling freely at the
f i rices) named by the Alaska packers, which
s 35o a dozen higher than the opening
price of laat season.- This came aa a sur
prise to a good many buyers, who thought
the price would open from Be to 10c per
dozen lower than a year ago.
The dried fruit market continues very
active, peachea perhaps still being the lt?m
of greatest Interest, while raisins are com
ing In for their share. No price have
been named yet on new seeded. . ...
An active demand for fish, Is reporlel,
Holland herring, Norway K. K. K. and
mackerel being the most popular lines.
On the latter the demand Is principally
for the larger alaea. owing to the scarcity
and consequent high price of the small
lze.
There I a marked Increase In the sale of
oil vea, Imported goods and other fancy
lines, which Jobbers take a an Indication
of the growing prosperity in the west and
of the fact that western people are con
stantly demanding a better class of goods.
a here is iiu c-iiua to no 19 in the maiket
for woodenware.
Brisk Desaaad foe Dry Goods.
Local dry goods Jobber report their
house trade for laat week as being ab ml
the beat experienced since the first of the
month. The orders received, both direct
and through traveling men, have alo
Ihown quite an Improvement within the
ist few daya and It Is thought that the
cause Is found In the Improved crop con-
dlUons. Jobbers are now confident of a
rood late buainesa and In that event their
ale will run far ahead of last year or
of any previous year.
The cotton market continue strong ana
do change In the prices ruling on cotton
gooda la reported. Indications now are
that present prices will hold good through
out the winter and spring and Omaha Job
be re have gone ahead with that Idea and
made preparations for carrying a larger
and better line of good than ever before.
Tbe manufacturers prices for Amoekeag
JL P. C. and Toll du Nord ginghams have
been fixed respectively at $ and t cents,
and some good orders have already been
booked. Jobbers are hoping that deliveries
of all classes of goods this coming season
will be better than they have been in the
Kist. but an enormous demand la already
sight.
Ualaaf Goods telllas Freely,
There were mors boot and shoe men on
the local market laat week tbtn Jobbers
Were expecting and tne:r orders were
heavier. As a reejlt, business In that line
baa been unusually good and Jobbers wall
pleased. It seema that a lrge number of
inerchanta were holding back a, Urgu part
of their orders until tney could tell mors
about the outcome of the corn crjp but
now they no longer fear a' crop failure and
aa a result are rushing to maraet and plac
ing their orders.
The rubber goods trade remains quiet.
The warm dry, weather haa temporarily
? becked the demand for both clo.Mng ani
oot wear, but Jobbers are content to wait
In view of the fact that they have ban
doing a bid business all this year.
Km Chaago la Hardware. '
The hardware market Is In Just about
ths same position il was a wees ag . no
Important changes having tkksn place.
The demand, however, for all seasonable
goods has been very satisfactory, aa the
cold weather of a week or ten cay ago re
minded pecpl that It was time to prepare
for winter. There Is no special feature to
ths trade, aa the demind is simply general
fur all clasaea of seasonable and staple
articles.

rttaits tics show that during too month of
August, UKai, before tne paaaage of the
Grout bill, 86.3,1 fifty-pound tubs were
sold, while duitng the same month of the
following yser aitor the law became ef
fective, the amount manufactured drutiued
down to tl.tus tuba of the eame else, iat

which Is a decrease frum two years ago of
U.tU fLfty-pound tub. Of the amount sold
last mjnth lit, tubs were unculureJ and
ouly Wl tubs were colored. This enormuus
decrease to the manufacture and sale of
oleomargarine of course means an Increase
tn the demand for butter and It is thought
that butter Is now selling coiiud roly
klgher than if the Grout bal had Bwt bo

Ths demand for fruits last week was very

changed to 3i)c lower.
Steady cables and only fair receipts en
couraged loc&l wheat bulls and commlsalon

with the result that the December option,

higher. 77c, to ViJ-Sc, sold up to 77Hc.
In the face of favorble conditions ahrod.
however, together with prediction! of heavy
northwestern receipta next week, tne firm
ness gave way and quantities of long wheat
came out, carrying teceinier oaca to 760.
A fair demand sprang up later due to an
Improved cash demand reported from Min
neapolis and there was covering at the

Corn started firm on the cables and a
large shipping demand but several local
long holders took advantage of the ad

CATTLE The receipts of cattle this week
are a little heev!r thia thry were a week
ago and there la but a very slight deciease
as compared with the corresponding week
of last yeer. Ths table above will show ths
exact ngures.
Ths supply of corn fed steers has besn
light all tne week end, ss packers had to
havs a few, all desirable grades may be
quoted strong and active, with some claases
a llttls blgben. The kinds that havs ahown
the most Improvement are those that a
week ago were selling from $4 80 to 15.10
and that class may safely be quoted a dime
highest Short-feds such as sell from $4.(4
to $4.75, are not any higher than they were
a week ago, and In fact some of the com-
mon kinds, such as come In competition
lower. Flr to good cattle may be quoted
from $4 80 to $9.25 and choice from $5.25 to
$550. '
The grass beef steers are lower for ths
week except where the quality is excep
tionally good. Anything good enough to
sell from $4.00 to $440 could probably be
quoted steady, but such kinds have been
extremely scarce so rar mis season, tne
general run of the fair to good westerns
sell from $3 26 to $3.80 and Texas cattle sell
from $3.00 to $3.26. With the exception of
the choicest grades tne general maraet on
western beef steers could safely be quoted
I3&26c lower.
The cow market hos been very uneven all
the week, owing, no doubt. In a large meas
ure to the heavy receipts. Cornfed cows
snd heifers have been very scarce snd
probablv could be quoted about steady If at
all good. The ouik oi tnem wouio. sen rrom

stuff slmost unsalable at any price. Fair

The week closed with very few cattle In
first hands, but there were still a good
many left In the hands of speculatora.
although the demand from the country has
been fxtr ail tne weeg.
HOG 8 There was a modsrate run of hogs
here this morning and the market opened
strong to a nickel higher. Heavy hogs
sold largely from $'.6, to $5.70. medium
weights went from $5 70 to $5.75 and lights
sold from $5 75 to $5 2H Trading was not
very actlva. owing psrtly to the fact thai
buyers and sellers could not agree on prices,
but largely to tne late arrival or trains.
The traina kept coming In all the forenoon
and, the same as usual, packers bought the
late arrivals lower than those that cam In
early. Ths close of the market was very
slow nad weak, most of ths advance being
lost. ,
For ths week receipts of hogs havs been
ery light, as there Is a dccree as com
pared with Isst week of about 10.600 head,
and aa compared with the same week of
last year the decrease amounts to sbout
8.000 head. Prlcea have fluctuated back
and forth to quite an extent, but closing
prices ars about tna same as tnev were a
week aro. today's average cost belns only
a shade under the average of last Saturday.
