With tha advance of hot weather mhim
A lull In business in reneral. Hardware

, ... . m ...... . ., , ivj B!iu on enor-

dealers have a rood trade, especially
... buiiiiiici lines.
The features of the' market are an uncer
tainty In the coffee situation, the hlh price
of cotton Roods and the probable advance
in salmon on account of the failure of the
ockeyee to run on Pugct aound. Hot
weather In California la causing a low
grude fruit pack there.
Cotton Goods Roarlnc.
Omaha dry foods jobbers buying cotton
In the east are confronted wltn a level of
prices that Is fast approaching the high
quotations of The mills are In shape
to command high prices, and this, together
with the fact that tho stocks of gray goods,
brown cottons and finished fabrics In sec
ond hands are exceptionally low, makes a
market decidedly favorable to high prices.
Hopes, lawns, fruits and all competing
Ilnea of bleached goods have advanced L
cent at the Jobbing houses during the hist
week. The prices on four-yard brown goods
and heavy weights have also been raised
and an advance in all staple lines of prints
Is looked for. In coarse goods, such as
denlma. drills and ticklnga, the prices that
have been announced on lines that were
held at value last week or withdrawn are
7 to 1 per emit higher than those ruling a
week ago.
Borne difficulty Is experienced by the Job
bers In filling advance orders on account of
bad dnllverlea by the manufacturers. Col
lections are reported as very satisfactory.
The sugar market is still in an unsettled
condition, owing to the lower price ruling
on raws and the demoralisation in freight
rates. A decline aggregating points has
taken place since last week. The local de
mand, however, has been unusually heavy
during the last week.
Anxiety to Coffee.
Coffee has advanced cent a pound since
Tuesday, The Braxll market Is now aio
higher than New York. Receipts lu Brazil
of the new crop promises to be less than
the estimate made some time ago. They
are now on the eve of the marketing of the
crop In that country and another week
may change tilings In this country- A
reat deal of anxiety hi displayed among
m,. uu;.n swui ueing anie to get in on
the Bimxll crop. There Is a very short visl-
that the visible supply of coffee will not
materially Increase or decrease during
July, whereas in most years there Is a big
Increase ln that month.
Cheese Is practically unchanged. Specu
lative buying continues to stimulate the
market a little, but prions have not ad
vanced. Some large lots have boon bought
up oyer the country, ami later on this
may have a tendency to stiffen prices.
Reports of unfavorable conditions affect

Boekeyo Sainton Won't Come.
Keen interest Is felt among dealers In
salmon In the report from tho Pacific
coast that the sockeye salmon have not
put in their appearance. The run la now
about fifteen days overdue and the beat
Informed on the .habits of fish say that
there probably will bo a repetition of the
last two seasons lit the 1905 pack. A total
failure of the run on I'uget sound, while
among the possibilities, Is not regarded
a a probability, but It Is regarded as
certain that the packers will not be able
to secure anything like tho expected quan,
tlty of fish. There la still time for a fair
run of salmon, although the regular sea
son ( now practically over. Such fish as
are taken In the fall are apt to run light
In color and are deficient In oil. It Is
probable that the packers will have to
advance prlcus. A New York dealer esti
mates that the entire Puget sound pack
will be about 250,000 cases less than the
consumption of the cheap grades last
year.
Prices on salmon named by the Alaska
Packers' association are 10 cents lower
than the association named last year. If
the sookeyes do not begin to tun very
soon there doubtless will be an early ad
vance tn Red Alaska. Prices on pink
salmon are slightly higher than last year,
high enough that the goods can scarcely
bo made a 10-cent seller.
Sardines, one-quarter oil. are lower. Mus
tards are unchanged. Jobbers do not look
for any lower prices.
There Is a fair movement on salt mack
erel. Holders are steady in their Ideas
on Irish and Norway, with small Nor
way counts attracting some attention. Re
. ports from the east note a continued fuir
X - catch.

will not ln any Instance shade the prices
whloh have lately been asked. Syrups
today, says a wholesaler, are cheaper than
dog meat and cannot get any lower.
California is at present experiencing the
hottest season It had had for many years.
The peach crop will be short of early
estimates owing to the hot weather. The
apricot crop will be a fair one and away
ahead of that of last year. - As a result
of the heat fruit Is ripening rapidly and
the raisers are dumping It on the canners
us fast as they can deliver It. The can
tiers find themselves unable to care for
the fruit as fast as it is delivered and In
etuad of the pack being of a high grade,
the goods will go largely Into seconds,
standards and pie fruit. It Is not reason
able to suppose that any large quantities
of the higher grades can be packed under
the conditions.
Spot dried fruit shows several changes.
Peaches have stiffened up because of the
very small supply available. Evaporated
apples are V higher. Seedless raisins of
first class quality have advanced i,c a
pound. There la an abundant vupply of
aprtoots and the market is tending lower,
la futures the market Is very strong on
evaporated peaches, prunes and apples.
Prices have not yet been named on. raisins
for fall delivery, but it Is generally ex
pected that they will be considerably
above those of last year. Spot umnts
are active. A report that the monopoly
legislation in Greece Is practically consum
mated has not been confirmed In this
country.
Prunes are firm, with prices about la
above the low figures, t ables from France
report half a crop and the fruit running
to small sixes. A New York prune dealer
estimates the California prune crou at 75,
OuO.ouO pounds. He says the French crop
will be alKUit half that of Inst year. Cal
ifornia prunes run chiefly to large slsis.
Report from Bosnia and Hervla give a
crop of about two-fifths that of lam sea
son. There Is but a small supply of last
year's prunes on that coast.
Rice remains unchunged, but firm at the
prevailing figures. Holders sre not anxious
to sell.
Canned corn la without material change.
Very little good Is left In the hands of ;lia
packers. Tomatoes show a strong ad
ance ln every primary market. Baltimore
and Indiana tomatoes have scored an ad
vance of :vc a do ten.
Leather and Hardware.
' Omaha's leather goods business la very
quiet Just now. Practically no orders are
coming in tor shoes at this season and
the Jobbers are filling their fall orders.
No advance has been made In the price of
leather, but some concessions made earlier
In the season have been withdrawn, show
ing the strength of the market.
The haidwure salesmen are oft the road
for the time being and trade lone the lm-
toriahl Impulse given It by tin ir activities.
Manufacturers are giving their attention
largely to mattura other than the Imme
diate marketing of goods and are letting
up a nine in ine pressure ot production.
The merchants throughout the country
have been quite willing to defer ordering.
specially as the condition of the market
ruts suggested conservatism in purchasing,
not so much because lmimrt and reductions
In price are considered likely, as because
the feeling has l-en abroad that there is
nuinmg in the situation which makes it
neceMury to place orders at once, llual
riess is thus uuict. as is usual at tills time
of the yeur, but there seems to be a some
what mure confident feeling than was pre-
a.aji valnt a short time ago. The feeling of
apprehension had gradually given plate to
! M a more assured tone, and July open with
I business conditions which are generally re-
pirded as healthful and full of prtimtka.
v neiner or not the Improved feeling in
the trade can be explained by a reference
to definite facts or figures there seems to
be liule question a to its existence. Mer
chant and manufacturers thus enter upon
a quiet period, expecting an early re
sumption nf activity In business and Justi
fied In enjoying whatever may be per
mitted In the way of vacation In anticipa
tion of a continuance of good business condition!.

manifested. At the orenlng September was
up VbVc to HflHc at X4V,fc8Hc- From the
slart shorts were moderate buyers, and
while commission houses sold, offerings
were not of large volume. A factor that
Inspired some buying was wet weather In
the Canadian northwest. 'Weather In the
United Slates, however, was extremely fa

In corn the prospects for lighter receipts
started active buying by shorts and re
sulted In a strong market. - Firm cables
and Improved demand for cash corn helped
to stimulate buying. The market was sup
ported by prominent bulls and closed strong.
September opened Vfi'te higher at MS'f

Local receipts were 125 cars.

UNION PACIFIC THE FEATURE OF THE DAY
Steady Absorption of Tbla Issne Seta
Afloat Hew Conjeetnrea as
to Coming; Dividend.
NEW TORK. July 16. -The stock mar
ket fell Into lethargy today and only in
significant changes resulted from the day's
smnll hiialneMH. 4 Tha heavv accumulation
of cash revealed by the bank statement !
was much laiger than indicated by tne
preliminary estimates, but this whs sup
posed to be due to the rectification of last
week's unexpectedly large decrease by the
working out of the computation by daily
averages. As this building up of the re
serves is for the purpose of providing for
the repayment of the fll.ono.OOO of gov
ernment deposits called for today, the
money market Is not expected to benefit
from It, The ease of call money during
the past week had evidently been due to
the temporary employment of these funds.
The contraction ln loans relieved any ap
prehension that the subscriptions for the
Japanese loan had made any undue in
roads upon available credita.
The absorption of Union Paclflo set afloat
renewed conjectures as to the coming
dividend action upon which has been ex
pected from day to day during the week.
The Financial Chronicle's estimate of the
expansion ln railroad gross earnings at
tracted attention, returns from 125 railroads
partly estimated, Indicating an Increase for
the first half of the year over the rather
unfavorable showing of the first half of
last year of approximately 855,000.000, while
the comparison with the first six months
of 18H7, eight years ago, shows an expan
sion of some t470.0O0.O00. The buying of
Union Pacific held the market firm to the

were the crop reports and dividend rumors.
The local business was not large, prices

CATTLE There was only three cars on
ale today, not enough to make a market.
Receipts for fhe week have been liberal,
about 817 cars being received, which is an
Increase of about 244 cars over last week
and a gain of about 612 oars as compared
to the corresponding week of a year ago,
when the strike at the packing hounts
made receipts unusually light. The general
quality of the cattle was good.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday were
good days In the beef steer department, the
market ruling aboui steady for the three
days. Buyers were not overly anxious for
supplies at any time and for the most part
trading was slow and It was rather late
before the stuff waa all picked up. The
market went off some the last two market
days and shows a little weaker feeling on
the general run of cattle. Good handy
weight stuff Is Just about steady for the
week, these kinds being in fair demand,
but the heavy cattle and common and
grassy kinds are off Kjjl5c, with a slow,
draggy movement. Some Wyoming Texas
cattle were received that sold very satis
factorily. There was a fair supply of cows and
heifers here this week, but the market on
the common and grassy kinds broke badly.
Good, heavy, dry-lot cows and good, fat
heifers show little change, but the common
kinds show a decline of 25'g'40c. Buyers
were Indifferent on these kinds and the
trade was very slow and dull.
Good bulls are about steady, but grassy
kinds are 25c lower.
Veal calves and stags show little change
and are about steady.
There was a small supply of stnekers
and feeders here this week and the quality
was poor, trnshy stuff, being much In evi
dence. There Is Utile demand for this kind
of stuff and the market for the week shows
a decline of about loutlSc.
HOOB There was about the usual Satur
day's run here, about 119 lomi tw.i.
I sale. The receipts here were heavier than
at any of the other market centers. Light
I receipts and encouraging reports from east-
ern points gave sellers the advantage here
and prices ruled higher. On the opening
! trading was slow and it was some little
time berore much was done. After the first
round or two, however, buyers and sellers
got together and trading was active: Prloes
ruled generally 2c higher than yesterday's
best time, or a nickel higher than yester
day's general market. The bulk of the
hogs sold at t5.50ti5.55, with the long strlng
eelllng at J6.62M. As high as $5 60 was paid
for a good load of 175-pound hogs, which
was the top price of the day. The stuff
moved readily and a clearance was made In
good season, the market closing strong at
tha advance. Representative sales:

present crop prospects hold good through
the spring wheat harvest this country will

Sunderland ft Updike this mornina- said:
"The Kansas fnrmer aeema wllllnar tn bmII
Ms wheat and Is rushing It to the market
at such a rate that It looks as If prices
would have to go lower. Cables on oorn

light They will have to continue to take
our corn, and with light receipts here we
can t expect any lower prices. Oats mar
work a little lower, but H.m'i ..
sell them short."
