CONDITION OF OMAIIA'STRADE
With Good Weather the Month Will Be
Beeord October.
WEEK'S BUSINESS BEATS LAST YEAR
Advance Xnmed In Dry Goods aad
Shoe Prleea May tin Higher
, This Week HeSaed Sugar
nit Ten Points.
Business thus far In October hss far dis
tanced October of last year, which at the
time was thought s very good month.
Trade runs along with the same heavy
volume as long as good weather continues,
and If a cold, wet period does not come
this week or next the month will go on
record as the lilenoet October In the his
tory of local Jobbing circles. Home trade
was not so giod Iset week, but generous
orders were sent by mall and through the
medium of the traveling salesmen. Diy
! roods business was heavy, show houses en
nyed a good trade, hardware men were
:ept busy and grocers and drug men say
their business was all that could be ex
pected. In addition to this, no one had any
thing to complain of In the way of col
lect Ions.
A .year, ago the Horse show brought a
goodly number of retailers to the city and
they bought generously. It ls expected that
Jwst ss many, and perhaps more, will visit
the city next week on account of the Horse
fjiftw.
Dry f.ood Advance Again.
All lines of staple dry goods are Arm,
due partly to the unparalleled consump
tion and partly to the recently made higher
price of cotton. The Jobbers say their busi
ness last week was about 25 per rent heav
ier than for the same wek fast year. Re
tailers In the territory are enjoying the
s.-inie current measure of prosperity, ac
cording to the reports of the Jobbers. The
price on all bleached goods haB been ad
vanced '4 of a cent, and the same Increase
has been named In the price of brown
goods. Trlnts are In small supply and
higher prices are expected. I'nderwear and
hosiery are sold up and are exceedingly
hard to get. The Jobbers report satisfac
tory remilts for the week in their. collec
tion department.
Higher Prlre for (Unas.
The window glass market continues
strong. Factory prices have been raised
between 6 and 10 per cent. It Is believed
JoblK-rs will be obliged to advance prices
as a result of the act-ion on the part of
the facioriea. Plate glass Is also firm
and Is- up from 5 to lo'per cent. The de
mand Is good for both kinds of glass. Local
shops are very busy manufacturing art
glass for residences nnd churches. Oil is
.unchanged, linseed boiled being RS cents-.
wnne raw is 36 cents. Turpentine is still
quoted at 73 cents. Carter's lead is still
7 cents, wh'le southern la 7H cents. The
pleasant weather has stimulated the ewle
of palnta.
Tomatoes are without material chanpe
since a week igo. There has been no weak,
enlng to speak of since that time, the onlv
plHce In the country showing any weakness
tieing Baltimore and a few scattering offer
ings from Indiana. Even the lowest of
tljese would make the goods cost In Omaha
$1.05, and that a very indifferent quality.
Corn is without change, yet the pack
everywhere through the country Is admitted
to be considerably below that of last sea
ion. Cove oysters have come In for consider
able attention, ta spot stocks nre getting
very light and Jobbers are buying from
each other to take care of their reoulre
ments. Prices for new pack are materially
higher than lost season. Four and five
ounce oysters will cost too high to allow
them to retail at lesa than 124 or 15 cents.
Eight and ten-ounce have opened 40 cents
per dozen above last season's lowest price.
The market on prunes and raisins has
gradually stiffened up until raisins are now
held st I'4c per pound by many shippers
over the opening price.
Currants are firm at tho advance, with
no prospect for lower prices before the
first of the year.
New prunes and' raisins are coming for
ward from the coast very slowly, and
shipments are very uncertain because of
the very conditions which confront the
packers on the coast. With these condi
tions present values will doubtless be sus
tained on all of these coast articles-until
after the holidays.
Ruin In the south Is Interfering with the
harvesting and threshing of rice and ship
ments, will be delayed.
S a tear Down Ten Points.
Reiined sugar on the Omaha market la
quoted 10c lower than a week ago. There
was no change in raws. Both raws and
refined are linn at the present asking prfces
and little change. If any, is expected In
the next two or three weeks.
Cheese la Vc to Vfcc lower than a week
ago. The stormy and cold weather tn New
York has caused the closing down of many
of the factories there. It is said the make
of October cheese this year is smaller than
for several seasons, and consequently deal
ers are expecting higher prices to rule this
entire season. The consumption has been
exceedingly heavy and stocks are lighter
than usual.
Coffee Is steady and there is a good de
mand all over the country, withdrawals
from stock being very heavy. The statin
tics are of a bearish nature, but the stock
Is tn strong hands and no Immediate lower
prices are looked for.
Teas have not been In heavv demand
during the last week. The market is in a
strong statiatlcal position. Souchong Cey
lon teas are In limited supply and are
steadily growing firmer. Japans ure alfo
firm
Hard to Get Hardware.
i hardware market, while excesslvlv
tli Hid , advancing continually, is not
w!i:u may be tailed in flrst-cluas condi
tion. Iiw-uu of the increasing dlfllcu.ty
In getting some lines of goods. The manu
facturers are very slow in making some
deliveries. The demand for all staple stuff
Is growing and constant, and prices, na
turally, are advancing. Bar Iron has ad
vanced about 15 cents per hundred weight.
Solder has alHo taken a Jump of 4-ceut a
pound. Wringers are up a trifle and are
expected to go liigher. The market la
what might be termed very "hard," and
there are indications for further advances
In the near future.
Jobbers May Advance Shoea.
I'ndcr the Arm situation In leather, local
Jobbers say It may become necessary for
them to make an advance in the price of
i,.es this week. If the price Is advanced
this week, then they do not expect to make
any runner advance, but one is bound to
come soon, they say. The leather mar
ket continues firm, with prospects of higher
prices. As s result, shoes generally over
the country are a little higher on all grades
to the retail trade, but Omaha Jobbers have
not. yet maae tne aavance.
OMAHA HI6H SCHOOL NOTES
Omaha High sehool, with nearly 2.0I0
pupil the htth largest high school in the
I'nlled Slates', has dcv-lovd within Itm if

I lie l-nllii society. It Is in a class by itaeir
Meeting every alternate Friday, not e-ti
crunching up. m the regular society nights,
It draws rrom the other t-x-ietles the very
cream of their membership. The siel-ty
lanes ior us siiDjeci mailer tne oiu i:onil'n
men and their time; and the way the
members treat the subject matter shows
that Koine was unythlng but a dry place
to live in. The freshman, learning with
much delight, after liuge lahorthat Gaul
loally is divided into two parts, finds sud
denly that the Iatln tongue goes far beyond
this musty statement. Caeair. father of
empires, la maile a very real and wonderful
man to him. The bitter struagles of Cicero
and hla raithl'ul .little Itand of patr.ou,
against monarchy and luxury In old Rome,
change from a nieaninglesa Jumble of u.i
faniillar names and Places to an absorbing
and vivid battle of hqroe's for the good of
ineir laiiieriauu. anu ior tne heritage of
hbeity. In every way the hardest and
imst wearing Mudles in the rurrlcufuni,
ltin and Greek, aie freshened and vivi
fied. ,
Since it Is early In the year, the mem
bers are still studying the fundamentals
of Roman life. The general subje. t or
the meeting last Friday was the youth of
Roman. The program was as follows:
. "The human Child. ' Mamie Meek; "Play,
things of Roman Children," Josephine
Kuble; "Pastimes and Games of Roman
Chlldien." Lucie Findlayson: "The School

A new sm let y lias been formed by Mr.
Wsterhouse. The society Is not to be a
regular literary society, since it is to hsve
as chairman Mr. Waterhouae himself. Those
who remember the enjoyment and Instiuv
Hon that the parliamentary law classes
of two years ago. led by the principal, of

NEW RULES FOR PURE FOOD
Secretary Fromuleatta Beeulations for
Gnidanoa of American Manufacture.
COMMISSION IS A UNIT ON THE SUBJECT
Coloring and Preservatives Carefully
(innrded nnd Product Most Bear
Label Sett Inn Forth Its
Real Composition.
WASHINGTON, Oct. SO.-Secretary Wil
son of the Department of Agriculture to
day promulgated the regulations under
which the recently enacted pure food and
drug law will be enforced. The commis
sion apiHiinted to prepare the regulations
consisted of Dr. W. H. Wiley of tho Agri
cultural department. Dr. S. N. D. North
of the'Departnient of Commerce and La
bor snd James L. Gerry of the Treasury
department.
In a letter to the secretaries of the sev
eral departments they say their agree
ment on the regulations was unanimous.
To" the regulations Secretaries Wilson, Met
calf and Shaw have given their approval.
The section of the regulations respecting
the labeling of products require that the
Ingredients of the packages shall be Btated,
go that the purchaser may know precisely
what he Is buying.
lt the matter of coloring, the require
ment Is made that no Ingredient known to
be deleterious to human health shall be
ufed by manufacturers 1 This regulation
applies with particular force to the manu
facture of candles. Adulterations, particu
larly of drugs, is prohibited, but standard
drugs will not be considered adulterated
provided they are branded so as to show
their actual strength and purity.
As to Preservatives.
Poisons or deleterious preservatives shall
only be applied externally and shall be
of a "kind that will not permeate to the in
terior of the product and the preservative
must be of such a character that, until
removed, the food products are Inedible.
Misbranding of food or drug products Is
giarded against particularly. The label
on every product must bear the name of
the product, the place of manufacture, and
must show whether the article l a com
pound, mixture or blend, and must desig
nate the Ingredients and proportions in the
case of drugs nnd foods. The use of any
false or nilshadinK statement, design of
device on the label Is specifically prohibited.
It Is known that some difference of opin
ion arose among the members of the com
mission respecting Important details of the
rules. As originally drafted the rules prac
tically prohibited the use of generic names,
as applied to products of American manu
facture. For instance, champaigne, as din
tiiieulshing a kind of wine, could not be
used In connection with an American win"
of that kind, because It was held to be
misleading. If not actually deceptive. Geo
graphical names, generally, as applied to
food pr drug produi-ls, or to wine and
liquors, were not permitted to be- used
under the regulations as piescrlbed by the
commission.
Sonic Chalnrs Made.
When the regulations wore submitted to
the secretaries of the three departments
for approval some changes were made in
them of a very important character. The
use of geographical names, for Instance,
was provided for in cases where It was
thought the names were generic or distinct.
It was provided, however, that It should
be Indicated on the package containing the
product that It was of American manufac
ture. Thus, champagne is required to be
labeled American champaigne, or California
champaigne, so that the purchaser, while
he knows that lie is getting a certain kind
of wine, knows also that the wine Is made
In America and not In rYance. The regu
lations apply to other products in a similar
wsy. U waa the effort of the commission
to Insure to the purchaser of mi)' food or
drug product absolute purity.
