The following table shows ths average
price of hogs at Mouth Omaha for th last
several days, with comparisons.
practically all grades of fat cattle sold 10e
lower, and this was followed on weonesoay
by a market that was quoted anywhere
from weak to l"e lower. On Thursday the
market was weak, though not very much
lower, while Friday's market. If anything.

ian the clou, of the previous woek. The
ado on practically every day of the week
as flow and dull, there being a lark of
rifeney to the demand which robbed the
market of life and snap.
Cows and heifers followed along in me
ak of beef steers, the declines amount
ing to about the same. Possibly some kinds
of cows did not slider quite so much and
some are quoting the declines for the week
as amounting to littiznc, but it woum noi
be far from the truth to quote them the
same as beef steers, that Is, l&tj-Oc lower.
Blockers and feeders sold very well dur
ing the first half of the week, but when
hursday came nnd it became apparent
that cattle of that description were be (Tin -
ilng to accumulate In the hands of specu
lators and that there was a possibility that
some of them might have to be carried
ver Sunday values weakened off very rap-
Idly and soon became all of 10 15c lower on
the most annzht after kinds and lMi"De
lower on the common to Inferior grades.
HOGS After a decline of a most 10c in
the last two days, the hog market looked
p today. While the advance was small.
he market being only a shade better, the
nange was In the right direction to pleas
he sellurs. The trade, when once under
way, was active, and tho hogs sold very
largely at 3H.4S. with a sprinkling at $6.46.
It will be remembered that yesterday the
bulk of the hogs sold at 3a.40-gti.42V4- The
top both days was the same 16.60. Every
thing sold and weighed up In very good
season In the forenoon.
lhe market this week has fluctuated
more extensively than has been the case
on a good many weeks previous. The week
tartea out with a good advance, which
was followed by a still stronger advance
on Tuesday and a strong market on Thurs
day, that being the high day of the year.
1 'urlng the two days following prices eased
off quite rapidly, but after allowing for the
light reaction today tna market la only
4c lower than It waa at the close of last
eek.

decrease as compared with the previous
week. The receipts are also slightly smaller
than a year ago. In other words the run
this week has been about an average for
this market. The tendency or values, now

or less extent have been experienced at
practically all selling points.
The market on steers opened the week at

SHEEP Cnntmiir M rh. ti.,,al ....- nM .,
Saturday, there were a few sheep here to
uay, tiiree cars of lambs being reported In.
they were, however, not offered for sale,
btlnif feeuers on their way to 8t Paul to h
iiuiu ana tea out. receipts of sheep at
iiib uuiuL ut&ve men very larre in waic
but as a matter of fact Lha actual ofrariiiira
on the market have been only moderate. A
vonsiaerauie proportion Of the arrivals has
consisted of lambs on their way to eastern
ana normern points to be shorn and pre
pared for the later market and In conse
quence not offered for sale at thla nolnt.
The actual offerings on the market have
consisted principally of lambs, no wethers
or yearlings of any conaeqeunae having
been Included among the recelDta. The tun.
ply of ewes has also been extremely light.
The market aa a whole has been In most
satisfactory condition and values have gen
erally tended upward. As to sheep there
have not been enough here to make a test
of values, hence It Is Impossible to say just
how much advance they would show. The
supply of ewes has also been verv liKht and
the market has been practically bare of
real choice stuff, so that there has not been
much opportunity for Judging how much
higher they really are. It is safe to say,
however, that desirable wethers, yearlings
ana ewes wouia sen aeciaeaiy nigncr ir they
were to be had. Some operators on the
market venture the assertion that a right
choice bunch of ewes would crowd 86.
Lambs for the week are safely 25c hleher
than a week ago. The trade on most days
nas neen not oniy strong ana niaher. but
active on all good kinds of killers Oood
choice lambs were sold as high as 86.80,
which Is the best price paid since February.
Feeder lambs have also been good sellers
at good, strong prices, and it has been no
trouble for receivers to unload anything of
mai aesenpuon pomessing aesiraouity.

CONDITION OFOMAHA'S TRADE
Fettures of Prominent for Ftat Week
Are Few.
UN-CENT DECLINE IN REFINED SUGAR
Sorno Cotton Goods Well Cleared to
aad Hard to Get Jobber Re.
Jolee Over Better Weather
for Farmers.
No features of prominence have marked
the trade of the fast week. The most Im
portant has been the decline of 10 cents a
hundred In refined sugar. No further ad
vances in shoes or dry goods have been re
ported, though certain lines of cotton goods
are txceedmgly Brarce. Trade In general
has been good. Jobbers are pleased with
the reports from the country, which say
that the farmers are getting along well
with their work after a long Inactivity
causrd by wet weather.
Cheese Is a trifle easier. The factories
are starting up, so that lower prices may
be looked for, especially with regard to the
new make. Fancy October Is scarce and
will no doubt continue to command a pre
mium. The new cheese coming on the mar
ket Is reported to he poor and will not be
of the best kind for several weeks, when
full grass cheese Is offered.
Rice is firm and some of the rice millers
say they expect to see It advanced 1 cent
a pound within sixty days. The demand Is
fair and rice of good quality Is scarce.
Though the Lenten season has gone and
the demand has eased no romlilernhi v
prices on salt fish remain firm. The market
on canned lis 11 is nrmlng up and the can
ners are predicting an advance.
Coffee Is In a more settled position than
last week and prices are practically un-
iiauieu. moras are Doing steadily re
lief d. The reason sriven that rnff., riw
not advance Is that the new crop is con
ceded to be much larger than the old on
and It Is not for away.
Reined Sagar Cheaper.
Owing to a Steady dei-lln. In r, auraM
for savaral days renned has dropped 10
cents a 100 pounds. The market in Cuban
ugar shows a decline of 15 nuinta fr h.
week, though foreign raws remained prac
tically the same. Htnoka am miuH ,,n at
New York and the accumulations there In

the prospects for a larre amall fruit .mr.
iii,ver tne country are excellent
Ths past week has developed a very
strung market on spot tomatoes In the east,
where there has been an advance of from
10 to 12c per doxen. It Is now supposed
that there are very few tomatoes oulalde
of the hands of the syndicate. Reports
have it that they have advanced thir
prlcea on full standard goods 60 per dosen.
Ihere Is, however, positive connrmallon of
UllS report. There are no chanarea In rnnnrt
In future tomatoes, except that the pacKera
wiiciuiB 10 cgntnci ior eany delivery,
says th middle or last of July, at prlcea
considerably below those ruling today.
There Is no particular change to rennrt
with reference to snot corn. Mmt nt it
packers oliering future corn have with
drawn their early figures, not many of
them caring to enter the market th.
prices established by a few of the very
large packers. Corn is going out remark
ably last and there are sull good sised
blocks in sight.
Earthquake Affects Canned Gooda.
At the present writlna-. it la dlffiuit tn
tise up th situation on California, canned
fruits, for the reason that considerable
surplus stock was-stored In and around
San Francisco, and It Is ImDosaibia to ut
accurate information as to in amount of
block mat nas oeen destroyed. On tiling,
however, la very clear, and that Is that
with th destruction of properly that Is
known to have taken place In th oity,
there will be quit a heavy demand for all
ainas 01 canned fruit and vegetables, so
that It Is reasonable to suppose tnat tnere
Will be slightly higher prices on thla :in
of goods, tne advance, of course, depending
upvu ui pruvuruuu 01 in iruii mat nas
been destroyed. The demand for all rmdi
of this character ha been heavy, n.d but
few of th packers have had anything; Ilk
fair assortment to draw from.
Salmon Is in stronger Dosilion week hv

and th supply less. It is now well estab
lished that both aockeyes and Columbia
river Chinook salmon will open up at higher
finues wu ruiea uui season.

apples, th supply of which Is vary limited.

A further advance has taken place on
evaporated apples, both whole and ring
cut. Peaches are In stronger position, due
to th increasing demand and the limited
supply. K&isins also are taking on addi
tional strength. The destruction In San
Francisco is going to have Us effect upon
ins oriea xruic margei. inasmucn as tna
surplus of peaches and prunes waa largely
concentrated in that market. It Is not prob
able that they have a greater buddIv of
peacnes ana apricois man win now be re
quired for their own and the coast trada.
Another advance has been scored on Santa
Clara prunes, th market being boosted Wo
during the last week. Almost without ex
ception the canned goods and dried fruit
lines are In active demand and in strontr
position, m aemana ior everything in th
