Business with Omaha jobbers for tha

the lust six months of the vear la llkelir
prove even heavier than for the first
ix months, and that the ar will be tha
at ever known. All lines rnrirl mn In.

Usually good for thin time of year and the
country merchanta say that the same con
dition holds true with thsm. -Sugar
la off ten points thla week, alto-
f ether on account of the demoralization In
reight ratea. The market la only fairly
steady and a further decline would not
Surprise the trade.
Cereals are all unchanged, with the ex
ception of rolled oata. which sliuws rnnald
erable strength on account of discouraging
crop reports. Prices have advanced lotyla
cents a caae on five-pound packages and
Valuea have gone up on barrels.
Quietness characterised the canned goods
market for the week. The growth ef corn
baa been greatly retarded by cool weather
In section of some of the eastern states,
and a shade firmer feeling has been created
on the probabilities of a light output there.
Canned tomatoes 'have lieen steady. An
Opening price fit 12 has been made on New
York gallon apples. Whether fills price Is
to prevail Is uncertain, much depending on
the progress of the crop timing July.
Through June the apple crop In the pan
ning districts of New York has progressed
favorably and everything points to a fair
yield.
Coffee la a little weak at about last week's
r rices. The receipts of Rio and Hantoa for
he crop year ending June ) were ,!, OH)
bags, compared with 10,48,0t bags a year
go and 13.324,000 bags two years ugo.
All grades of checso are practically un
changed. There Is a slow demand for large
sizes, but better doinand for the small
alr.es. Bklrra are quiet, but the fancy qual
ities are well sustained.
The only point of Interest In the dried
fruit market was a slight advance In the
doinand for raisins. The supply of this
fruit Is light and the movement restricted
by high prices. Apricots are dull and easy
and peaches quiet. Prunes are held firmly
up to a high price established by the crop
conditions of ihls season.
No changes are reported In the market
for the grocery grade of molasses, busi
ness being seasonable, but re Heeling the
usual midsummer dullness. Stocks In deal
ers' hands are light and prices are firmly
maintained. Kisckstrap Is steady at un
changed prices.
Dealers report a light trade In salt fish,
with no particular Interest In any variety.
Mackerel Is steady with a llifht movement.
Herring la qulot and the movement la lim
ited to small lots. There Is not much in
quiry after codfish. Smoked fish are quiet
and the trade Is limited to actual demand.
Kor family whitcrlsh there la a big de
mand. The salmon market Is about the same as
It has been for a week. Opening prices on
sockeve and the probable bulk of the pack
are about the only points of Interest In the
market. Red Alaska Is most plontlful and
Columbia Chinook Is so scare that It Is
almost Impossible to fill orders. Pinks
move with freedom and are held steadily.
Bar dines are unchanged and the movement
Is light.
In hardware there are no advances of any
V consequence to, be recorded. Tha demand
7 for goods made from black and galvanised
r sneet and tin Iiiaie nas oeen intrmw, me;
; thla leads to the belief that there soon will
be an advance In the price of the raw ma
terials. Nalla and wire products are JTialn
talned at the same prices. They are being
more firmly held In first hands and there
Is less evidence of price cutting.
A letup In tha active prosecution of the
hardware business at this season la quite
In the usual course, and at the present
time Is not so pronounced as to Indicate
anything unfavorable In regard to the
outlook. The six months Just closed have
been on the whole, characterised by excel
lent conditions, although soma of the most
sanguine anticipations which prevailed at
the opening of the year were not realised
to their full extent. In heavy goods there
has been some vacillating in the matter
of price, and the volume of business In
this line has been somewhat affected by
these Influences, but hardware In general
has been quite steady. Manufacturers
havs had no reason for reducing prices so
1 far as the cost of their goods Is con
cerned, this being practically unchanged,
the tendency being. Indeed, with the nat
ural Increase In the expense account, to
ward higher rather than lower costs.
Prices certainly have been, on the whole,
very well maintained. With, excellent
proaperta for the crops, and In view of
the prosperous condition generally
nrevalent. the outlook' for the remainder of
The year is regarded aa decidedly encour
aging.

Weakness In the wheat market developed
aoon a ter the opening. At the atart the
market was qulto firm. Beptember was up
Hif'ac at HS'avViC. Heavy rains through
out Kansas were the main cause of the
Initial firmness. In the northwest, how
ever, weather conditions were generally
favorable for the spring-sown crop, ami
this fact led to free selling by sever.il
prominent commission houses, resulting in
a quick decline. Later the market became

NEW YORK, July 8. -The week In the
Stock exchans-e closed with a carefully
managed movement to realize, which was
facilitated by the bidding up of prices here
sharp decline In cash prices, following re- n' there at tlie opening. After the selling
o-i,i luiee prices were mnraea up
Biraln, leaving the last prices not far from
those of last nlsht. The reHllilna? was
most conspicuous In Readlnp and L'nlon
Pacific, In which the speculative operations
have been the largest nil the week. The
demand for Reading has been Incited by
proclaiming confidence that the dividend
on Central railroad of New Jersey was to
be Increased with benefit to Reading
through Its holdings of that etock. The
action of the directors today In declaring
only the regular dividend on Central Rail
way of New Jersey was calculated there
fore to Induce some selling of Heading.
The cotton market was excited again, but
the grain markets were Inclined to react
on the favorable weather conditions In the
wheat belt. The rcallring In Heading was
partly covered by marking up Reading
second preferred. The I'nlted States Steel
stocks also showed signs of Irregular
strength In connection with rumors of the
figures for the net earnings of the last
quarter.
The largo decrease In cash shown by the
bank statement was a surprise, as the pre
liminary estimates had Indicated only a
nominal change. The loan contraction was
regarded as moderate for the opening week
of a disbursement period. Tha market closed

ports of an Incressed movement of n
wheat In the southwest. There was a num-l-r
of advices of a bullish nature, but they
seemed to have little effect on the mar
ket. One report from Ban Francisco
claimed that "The wheat crop of California
had defrlorated 46 per cent. From Minne
apolis came another report asserting that
black rust had caused considerable damage
to spring-sown wheat. A factor that
brought out much of the late selling was
a revised estimate by a Chicago expert
regarding the total winter wheat crop
based on statistics furnished since July 1.
According to these figures the total yield
was 4no.noo.0i) to 42n.noo.otiO bushels Sep
tember reached the lowest point of the day
at PTHc. The market closed weak, with
Beptember at RT'aC. Clearances of whwit
and flour were equal to ll.ono bushels.
Prlmarv rerelpts were 317.700 bushels, com
pared with HI. 400 bushels a year ago. Min
neapolis. Duluth and Chicago reported re
ceipts of 149 cars, against 119 cara last
week and 143 cara a year ago.
Larger receipts than expected and more
liberal acceptances caused weakness In
the corn market, notwithstanding a sharp
advance at Liverpool. Cash houses were
the principal sellers. Receipts at primary
points were more than double those a year
ngo. The market closd wenk and near
the lowest point of the day. September
opened '4c lower to He higher at Mv.ftWto,
sold off to We and closed at Wi'SSIc,
Local receipts were 428 cars, with 153 of
contract grade.
A firm tone prevailed In the oata market
early In the session on an active demand
from commission houses. The market
weakened In svmpathy with the Reclines In
other grain. Benterober opened a shade to
Vte higher at 314t,fe31Ne, sold between SIHc
and 814q..Tlirc and closed at S1V. Local
receipts were 149 cars.
Provisions were firm from start to finish.
The volume of trade was fairly large. A
Fc advance In the price of live nogs had a
strengthening effect. At the close Bent-ember
pork was up 22V4e at 313.00. Lard was
up "iyfilOc at $7.30. Ribs were 15c higher at

Dry goods In general are higher and de

tors In the dry goods Industry reallre that
the coat of manufacture has Increased dur

LONDON. July 8. Money was In less de
mand In the market today and supplies
were scarcer owing to large repayments to
the Bank of England yesterday and to tha
fact that an additional lo.000.006 is due on
Monday. Business on the Stock exchange
was dull and Irregular and uneasiness was
felt concerning the Kaffir settlement. Con
sols were eaay, depressing home rails.
Americans opened dull and Irregular. They
Improved somewhat In anota, but the
movements were mostly downward and
the market closed quiet. Japanese were
offered In anticipation of the new loan,
which was quoted at a small premium.
Kaffirs were the center of Interest. They
relapsed on continued liquidation.
BERLIN, July 8 Prices on the bourse
today had a firm tendency.
PAH18, July 8. Prices on the bourse

tive. Russian Imperial 4a were quoted at

CATTLE Receipts for the week were a
few hundred short of a week ago, but show
a gain of about 2.3O0 head pvr the sa.no
week lust year. The general quality of in
cattle was fairly good all the week.
Tha market on beef steers opened vary
satisfactorily this week. The supply of cat
tle on Monday waa light and buyers lost
no time In picking up tha reoaipts and there
waa a good, active tone to the trading all
through. Prices on that day advanced li"tf
16c, with conditions all In favor of the sell
ing Interests. On Tuesday there was no
market, It being the Fourth, and on
Wednesday shippers apparently tried to
make up for the lost day and cattle re
ceipts were heavy. With these heavy is
celpts came conditions exactly opposite
those existing Monday. Buyers came on
ths hill In a bearish mood and were indif
ferent, there being little or no life to Hie
trade. Sellers found It difficult to move
their holdings and were forced to take off
all that had been put on on Monday. Since
the middle of the week tha market ruled
generally steady and at the close prices
are in about the same notches as on the

stronger.
The supply of cows and heifers waa light
all the week and there was a good demand
for the desirable kinds. The market for
the week Is a little stronger than the close
of last week, although the common, grassy
cows are In pour demand and are only
idoui steaay.
Bulls, veal calves and stags ruled gener
ally steady for the week ana there was lit
tle change in prices.
The supply of Blockers and feeders was
small this week and the quality of the re
ceipts was rather poor. Theia Is a fair de
mand for cattle of this class and the mar
ket for the week Is about steady on Eood
kinds, but lower on others. Itepresentutlvo

OMAHA, July 8, 1906.
Wheat went down today hi fust aa It
went up yesterday and at the close stood
only about c over yesterday's opening.
Tim opening waa ateady. but tha market
broke under moderate oflerlngs. Increased,
receipts at Kansas City and St. liula
causnd the rash grain at thoae placea to
ease oft several cents and futures followed.
July closed at 89c; September at 8;o and.
December at 87o,
Profit taking over Sunday caused corn to
lse iis,o; July closed at t7c; olll July at
67c; tx ptember at 6rc, old September at
6c; December at 49u and old December
at 61"o.
Oats closed with July at 32o; September
at 81c and December at Sl'c.
Liverpool closed d lower on wheat and
id higher on corn. The corn market waa
strong, with small reeelpta. Uroomhall
Credlcts n decrease In the quantity of
readstuffs on passage next week. Ha
says the world's wheat exports for Mou
dnv will be 10,4i.0o0 bushels.
Petri or St. Louis tells today that Ar
mour sent out reiHirta yesterday purport
ing to come from Mexico, Mo., to tfiti effect
that wheat wna yielding forty bushels an
acre along the Wabash railroad. Petri
nenl out Inquiries and learned that tns
yield wna twenty-two to thirty bushel.
Cash wheat wns heavy In all winter wheat
markets yesterday and the opinion Is that
It will require continued bad weather to
bull wheat. Dennis of Chicago ssys "I am
afraid the receipts of winter wheat next
week will make us forget everything else,
unless It Is something very sensational In
the way of weather or rust talk. St. lnils
and Kansas Cltv receipts today are larger
I ban the combined receipts of a year ago.
It Is said that Kansas City lias 2 . ,()
bushels sold for July shipment. Primary
receipts were 316.000 bushels, hist year they
were 161.000 bushels. No. 3 red wheat sell
ing at St. Louis yesterday at 91c, sold today
IU HSC.
The prospects are that corn will have to
sell higher If tho export demand Is stopped,
Oood cable acceptancea were made yester
day nt the full advance. Lighter receipt
are anticipated by many traders.
From today's Record-Herald: "An agi
tation which promises to be vigorous and
widespread has been started by the gov
ernment authorities with the object of
ultimately abolishing the Issuance of offi
cial crop reports. The agitation is the re
sult of the recent leak In tho Agricultural
department whereby cotton reports wera
given out In advance. The secret service,
acting under the direction of the secretary
of agriculture, haa Just completed Its In
vestigation. It la pointed out that the
government reports are only estimates and
that they are of no real value to the coun
try, but onlv yr speculators. So great aro
the temptation's to those preparing the re
ports that It seems Impossible to keep
them from being doctored. 1

Range stuff has constituted the bulk of
the receipts and the market at the close
Is in very satisfactory condition. Prices
here wars very good, being right up to
Chicago, and there haa been a guod active
trade all the week. The light receipts of
the week wars not responsible for the con
dition of the market, but the market Is
higher because there Is a good ateady de
mand for sheep of all kinds and buyers
are anxious for supplies. For tha week tho
market Is Just about 25c higher than tha
cloae of last week. 1 here were very few
spring lambs received thla week and the
market un thla kind of stuff shows no ad
vance on aheep owing to the break In prlcea
