THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: DECEMBER 30, 1906.
CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE
Ers of Great Prosperity for Jobberi and
BtUileri Oloiei with Year.
ALL LINES MAKE HANDSOME SHOWING
Present Conditio, on Account of
Holiday Reason, la MUla Dull
Salesmen Will Go Oat
Aaala Tlila Week.
The New Year's season clones a year of
Unparalleled prosperity tor local Jobbers
ami for the re(ailrs in Omana s tributary
trade territory, There la not any line but
ha shown a handsome Inc reuse over lant
year. 'Hie volume ol bunln' ss dune by
varloua bonnes runs all the way from 10
to Mi per cent over lirnu. All conditions In
dicate that prosperity la to continue and
the coming year will be better than the
Cloning one. Collections for lb year have
been on the average very satisfactory,
though (or the laat two weeka they have
been a little slow.
For the last week, the wholesale business
In Omaha has been very quiet. Ketall deal
ers have been busy In their own stores, so
local house trade 1ms been practically
nothing. Bailsmen have been at hcmie for
about ten days, but will be out again
Wednesday.
No change whatever In refined sugar has
taken place. Kaws, while they have
fluctuated a little from day to day, are now
about the same price as at the close of
tne previous week. The demand has fallen
oft In the last few days, which la natural
lor this season of the year.
There la a hopeful feeling in coffee, due
to the buying uemand In New York. The
market Is aomewhat firm.
Omaha Jobbers are receiving shipments
of new rice, which Is of a line quality,
prices are unchanged.
The market In all lines of dried fruit la
firm. Prunes are active arid may advance
almost anv dtiy. Tne California crop Is
good and the quality fair. Nearly all kinds
of dried fruit are in small supply, com
pared with the heavy demand. Pears are
firmly held. Ilaislns are a trifle easier.
No change Is reported in canned fruits,
and the markot Is steady. Corn Is firm.
Interest la said to be small, at present. In
futures. Beans are In good demand and
the market enjoys a firm tone.
Light Trade During Holidays.
oviria vntinBi i verv llirht lust now. dur
ing the holiday season. Orders were good
before the salesmen came In off the road
for their vacation, and it Is expected to
pick up at once after New Year's, when
the men go out again. The lines of the
country merchants seem to lie depleted
and need filling up. Conditions are un
changed. Iealher is high und stiff at
present quotations. An advance in stvie.i
would not be surprising soon after the first
of the year.
, The main difficulty In the dry goods
house la still the securing of goods. Mills
delay in making shipments, on account or
the acarcity of materials, and It seems Im
possible to get seasonable goods to fill
orders. Aside from this, the market U
without feature. Prices hold up and cottons
are strong. Ketall trade has been heavy,
although since Christmas it has fallen off
some. Road salesmen, who have betn at
home for ten days; will go out again tills
The present situation In hardware Is
quiet, just as It Is in other lines. The
market Is firm and the Indications are
prices will advance In many lines. The de
mand for building hardware still hold up.
White lead bus taken a jump of 2j cents
per hundred and us a result Carter leid
has advanced to 7V4 cents, while Southern
Is V cents. Turpentine is quoted at 74
cents. Linseed oil is unchanged, bo led
being 43 cents, while raw Is 41 cent. The
advance of lead means an advance In liquid
paints of at least 6 cents a gallon. Some
dealers have already raised the priefc.
Dealers in liquid paints are looking tor a
big business In 1907. Glass is firm and the
disccunts are now 90 and 5. An advance
of 6 cents la noted In glass In car Iota.
Droits nnil Chemicals.
The pure food and drug law la atlll at
tracting more attention than anything else
In drug circles. It. will not affect h. al
dealera to any great extent, as goods for
ale In the state of Nebraska will not re
quire additional labels until the first of
next October, but all Interstate business
must be relabeled to conform with the law.
Notwithstanding the Immense amount of
work and expense that has been entailed
upon manufacturers and Jobbers by this
law Its enforcement will In the end be of
material advantage to both the wholesale1
and retail druggists. Heretofore the honest
dealer has been compelled to compete with
the dishonest one and oftentimes he has
lost a sale because he did not have fcdulter
ated goods. The law, therefore, will pro
tect the howst dealer in the sale of honest
goods. It will only be a matter of a short
time In all probability when all the different
states will pass pure food lawa and It Is to
be hoped that when the Nebraska legis
lator get together to pass a law of this
kind they will make It In perfect harmony
with the national law.
Trade In the drurf line has been com
paratively quiet during the week on re
count of the holiday season. Harlem oil has
been advanced In price 75 cents per gross
and Is now quoted at H SO to $4.75. Opium at
U 65 to J3.75. (Jlyeerlne continues on the up
ward grade. The price has been advanced
to 14ty cents in 60-pound cans. Poppy seed
advanced during the week 2 cents per
pound and is quoted at 12 cents to 14 cents.
Alurphlne will probably be marked up again
on account of the advance In opium. This
being the season of the year when traveling
salesmen are withdrawn from thelf terri
tories to report at headquarters, and when
Jobbers are busy with their Inventorlit,
trade Is usually quiet. Ni t withstanding
this the market remains Arm an 1 , th'ie
are a number of small advances all along
tha line. Qolden seal Is a trifle lower and
la quoted at 11.71 to $1.85 per pound.

VOLUNTEERS GIVE DINNER
Two nandred Families Cheered with
Daaketa of ProrUlosa
nd Clothing;.
The distribution of Christmas baskets to
the poor needy of Omaha by tha Vol
unteer of America began at 1 o'clock Sat
urday afternoon. The distribution wna
made under the supervision of Captain and
Mrs. O'Neill.
The Volunteers' headquarters at 117 North
Fifteenth street was the scene of activity
Saturday morning and noon, before tha
distribution of the 200 or more baskets of
provisions. Each basket was filled to over
flowing with groceries and meats, consist
ing of apples, canned vegetables and fruit,
potatoes, oatmeal, coffee, eugar, baenn,
with a chicken or turkey to each basket.
The distribution was made by tickets which
had first been sent out to deserving needy
families whose condition fiad been ascer
tained by the officers of the Volunteers.
Such of the ticket holders as were sick
and unable to go to headquarters were
supplied by agents from Volunteer head
quarters, the distribution being made by
wagon. The distribution continued from
1 until 5 o'clock.
Captain O'Neill said:
"Most of the supplies, as you see, are
of the best class, which we bought, though
we received many donations from the
grocers. The funds were derived from vol
untary contributions made on the streets
to our "chimneys' on the street corners,
and cash donations from other sources.
We did not give a dinner Christmas day,
as the Salvation army had that day for
their Christmas offerings. We ordinarily
give a free Thanksgiving dinner, but we
did not arrive here in Omaha in time for
the free dinner this year, so v.e concluded
to wait and make ours a New Year's offer
ing to the poor and unfortunate. Aside
from this free dinner offering, we have
made during tha week a big distribution of
clothing."
i POSTPONEMENT OF COAL CASE
Absence of Attorney C'aoaea Delay ot
Wondard-Barllnaton Case In
Federal Conrt.
The hearing in the matter of the In
junction of the J. K. Woodaid & Co., cc.U
company against the Chicago, Burlington
& Qulncy Railroad company, to r. strain
the latter company from appropriating the
coal of the plaintiffs entrusted to the rail
road company for shipment, came up fjr
hearing Saturday morning before Judgo
Hunger In the United States circuit court
and has been continued over until Monday
morning. The postponement is owing t the
unavoidable absence of the principal at
torney for the coal company, who expected
to reach Omaha Saturday morning from
Chicago, but missed his train. C. J. Greene
and James E. Kelby. attorneys for the
railroad company, were present in court
and were Insistent that the hearing should
go on. But Judge Munger thought other
wise and decided to continue the case until
the first thing Monday morning. The rea
sons for the urgency of the railroad com
pany were alleged to be that the con
tinuance of the restraining, order until the
case could be heard on its merits on the
application for a temporary Injunction on
January 17, was working a hardship on
the railroad company.
Judge Munger remarked: "I cannot 8:8
that any serious hardship will result to
anybody by letting the matter go over
until Monday. Missing a train Is a cir
cumstance that Is liable to happen to any
one and In Justice to the attorney for tha
plaintiffs the case will be heard the first
thing Monday."

MATTER IS AT LAST DEFINITELY SETTLED
Local Wholesalers Will Send Oal
notices In Few Days to
Their Cnstomera of
Concession.
Retailers In the territory tributary to
Omaha In a trade way will be officially
Informed In a few daye by the Omnha
Jobbers' and Manufacturers' association
that the merchants' meetings In Omaha
are to be held next spring as usunl. tp tT
a few days ago the jnerchants all over the
country were fearful that the Jobbera In
various trade centers would no longer find
It possible to hold the meetings on account
of an Interpretation placed by the rall
roada on a ruling of the Interstate Com
merce commission.
The railroads proposed not to grant any
rates until 100 certificates had been vali
dated. This would have killed the meet
ings at all Jobbing points, as tha early
comers cannot be made to wait until 100
retailers arrive at market.
Recently the railroads secured a favor
able Opinion from one of the members of
the commission and announced that the
meetings could be held, under the guaranty
of the Jobbers' associations that the at
tendance would reach 100. The local or
ganization Jumped at the chance and the
merchants will have their reduced rates.
Dates for First Meeting:.
The dates for the first meeting will be
January 19-27, returning January 21 to Feb
ruary 6; dates for second meeting Feb
ruary 2-10, returning February 4-20; for
third meeting, February 16-24. returning
February 18 to March 6; for fourth meeting,
March 2-10, returning March 4-20.
A rate of one? anil one-fifth fare for the
round trip will be granted from all points
in the territory of the Western Passenger
association.
The Invitations sent out call attention to
the growth of Omaha as a Jobbing center,
the building of new wholesale housea and
the accompanying enlargement of stocks
from which to select, also the fact that
thirteen lines of railroad running; out of
the city give assurance of prompt delivery.
These meetings will have no effect on
the agreement of the Jobbers to. refund
fares between January 15 and April 1. Dur
ing this period fores will be refunded In
all cases where they are equalled by t per
cent of the purchases made by the visiting
retailer. The advantage to the merchant
In coming on the dates of the meetings
when reduced rates prevail, Is that he will
liLve to buy a leas amount of goods to get
his fare back.
