It promises to be a heavy one. General
business and financial oondltlona are such
that Nebraska crops can ba moved entirely
with Nebraska money.
Advances ware made laat week on knit
goods. It Is expected an advance of c to
Ho will he made on bleached goods this
week. Bilk prices for fall delivery are
stiffening up. Cotton Is unsettled; the
southern crop Is uncertain and manufac
turers fear they may have to base their
goods on 144 cotton. Ptlll, the labor factor
and the ability of tha mills to turn out
tha goods are considered of more Import
than a difference of 1 or cents a pound In
tne raw material. I
Retailers are placing heavy orders for
fall goods and the amount already booked
la greatly in exeess of the record of former
years. Regard Ihss of price, buyers seem
to want tha goods. In a very few casea
have retailers postponed plaotng orders In
expectation of lower prloes.
Calealaa; Up la Hardware.
No changea In the prices on staple hard
ware were made laat week. Local Jobbers
ara getting their goods a little more
promptly from the east than for several
months, ths factories now finding It eaaler
to make deliveries than for some time.
They are catching up with their orders on
wire fence and nails and ara working hard
to turn out goods to supply fall and win
ter trade. All year the factorlea have been
unable to accumulate any surplus stock
In wire fence, nails and builders' hard
ware, owing to the heavy demand In the
arly part of the year. Even with the
present short chance to ettcfl up. It Is
feared the fall demand win again swamp
the mills.
The position of refined sugar remains un
changed from week ago. Supplies are
lower than a year ago and even In face of
tha fact that the demand lias not been
very heavy, there ought to be an advanoe
soon. The dullness In refined Is affecting
the raw market. Refiners are not Anxious
to buy more than enough for present re
quirement and sellers are waiting.
Strength Is expected In the coffee mar
ket, though last week the trend was
toward slightly lower prices. Teas are
held at the recently made high figures
. and there are predictions of still higher
quotations before long.
Reports from the coast prune districts

advance in prices. Raisins are Inaotlve. not

transacted. Sellers will not offer goods
for delivery at any distant date and buyers

Moraines Advanced.
' New York representatives of Maine
ardlne packers yesterday reoelved Instruc
tions, by wire, to announce an advance
of loc a case la the price of quarter oils,
to take eftect on August 34. This v.ill make
the ft, o. b. Uastport quotations ULlo on
that kind of domestic sardines. In Justi
fication of tha advance It la stated that
the high cost of oil, cans, labor, etc., not to
peak of the short pack to date and a
heavy consuming demand, makes U neces
sary for the packers to get more money
for their goods. It Is reported on good
authority that fully 70u.00u cases of
domestic sardines have already been sold
for delivery out of this season's pack,
while the total output to date amounts to
less than 260,000 cases, practically all of
IJjhloh has already gone Into consumption.
lTne demand continues active, and packets
"5r not at all disposed to contract freely,
' oven at the advance, for, while the tides
are now light and the run of fish baa Im
proved, there la no certainty that It will
continue, and consequently there Is a
. , prospect that the packers may oversell.
Much Interest Is manifested In the prob
able opening price on 1907 salmon pack. It
was rumored that the Alaska Packers' as
' aoclatlon had named a mica nf 11 ik t n K
but this la authoritatively denied. It being J
wvoijr imnra mat tney nav made no
quotation whatever on this season's pack
f red Alaska salmon. There Is a con
4, eklerable Inquiry for spot sock eyes, with
little to bo had.
In canned vegetables, lntereat la centered
In tomatoes. During the early part of the
week, there was a lively ordering of goods
at the prices quoted for new stock. There
has been no change on old goods, which
Appear to be going alowly. Peas are strong
with premise of Increase over present quo
tations. Spot and future corn haa been
receiving little attention the past week,
though It la conceded that tho pack of
oorn will be light and prices will rule
uianvr man lorrner seasons.
Advancs In prices of all klnda of canned
peachea, apricots and canned fruits In gen
oral may be looked for.
Drags aad Chemicals.
During the. first half of August there was
considerable Improvement In the drug
situation aa to the movements of goods
There has been no notable changes in
prloes during the week. Opium remains
quiet and quotations unchanged. The
market for quinine Is without new features
with prices at the low basis which has
peen maintained for the past month. There
Is considerable attention given to caecara
agrada and the tendency of values is up
ward. Large sales of bark have been .re
ported during the week. There has been
advanoea In chammomlle flowers, golden
seal root, blue oohosh, buchu leave a and

Changes in Quotations on essential oils.
The linseed oil market has been quiet
during tho week, with no change In prices.

Wtrkm
At confrenca of Jurenlle court work
ers held faturdy roornln at Judce Ken-
nedjr court room In Tha Boa building tha
Drat step fr taken looking toward a
permanent home for tha Detention school.
At present the Detention home occupies a
rented building and a few weeks ago It
was feared a "change would have to bo
made, as the house was to have been
used for other purposes. The county has
county.
Tho matter came up at the meeting
which wa called to hear the report of Mra
Heller, matron of the Detention home, who
had attended the annual conference of
charities and corrections as the representa
tive of the Omaha Juvenile court. Her
report dealt with ths features of the con
ference which affected Juvenile work.
Thoae present at tho meeting were Judge
Kennedy and Estelle, County Commission
ers Solomon and Kennard. Thomas H.
Matters and Mrs. Draper Smith, visitors
to the Detention home, and the probation
officers.
la the remarks of Mrs. Heller mention
was made of the necessity of a permanent
home for the children and Commissioner
Solomon said the county should In the
course of time provide a permanent home.
This led to a discussion of the best plan
for such a home and the general opinion of
those present wa that It should bo based
on ths "cottsge plan." This plan was ap
proved, for tho reason there ars two dis
tinct clssses of children which come undnr
tho Jurisdiction of tha Juvenile court, de
linquent children and dependent children.
Both sexes are represented In these two
clssses and thus provisions must be made
for four kind of children. This can best
be done by maintaining cottages where
"families" csn be organlxed, placing chil
dren of slmllsr natures together. It was
decided the matter should bo brought to
the attention of tho publlo so thnt the
Idea could receive general consideration
and within a year or two formal applica
tion would be made for tho purchass of
a tract of lsnd upon which cottage may
bo erected.

CATTLB As Is the case every Saturday,
there were not enough cattle of any kind
In the yards to make anything like a mar
ket. ' The receipts for the week have been
very liberal, showing a large gain over the
previous week and a still heavier gain over
the corresponding week of a year ago.
While the receipts have consisted largely of
westerns there has also been a good show
ing of rantte stuff.
The tendency oh beef steers haa been
lower practically all this week. Con
ditions at eastern markets and at the big
consuming points have not been satisfac
tory, and with liberal receipts It has been
a easier matter for buyers to bear valuea
At the close of the week corn fed cattle are
25i&40c lower that the best time last week.
The best range cattle have not shown so
much decline, but the medium and Inferior
grades are a good deal lower, making the
- - , c , r -
general market safely 26c lower than last
wf?k- . . . vi u ., .
Cow and, heifer which -soared upward
at such a rapid rate last week have suffered
more decline this week than any other kind
of cattle. It will be remembered that cow
stuff sold at wild prices at the close of last
week, and making comDarlsons with these
, price It Is safe to say that cow are now
fully 40ifi50c lower.
Stacker and feeder trade began the week
speculators were especially free buyera.
Later on in tne week, under tne influence
of liberal offerings and a light country
demand, the market declined rapidly, clos-
Ing the week at 25fl40c lower. The evere
break In rat cattle wa pronahlv resiion-
IKl.. tnr tha, nrtlmlr" rint hnvlnar mn
freely of feeders. The stocker market was
in even worst condition mat the Teeoer
market, Inferior grades of that kind being
next to unsaleable.

HOGS Hogs opened steady this morning
and closed 5c lower that In brief was the
situation today. The early buying was lim
ited largely to selection of a few of the
better loads of light and medium weight
and before very many salesmen had time
to take advantage of the bids the market
was 6c lower. The trade continued slow
until the close, heavy hogs, as usual, be
ing discriminated against and feeling the
full force of the decline. Aa receipts, how
ever, were light, most everything changed
hands In very fair season In the morning.
It will he noted from the sales that light
hogs are very scarce and there was noth
ing as good as yesterday to put a top on
the market.
The receipt thl week, while about on a
par with the weec before, show a heavy
falling off as compared with a year ago.
In spit of the fact that recelpta have been
moderate, the tendency of the market ha
been downward, although the week started
nut with price a shade better. Com
mencing with Tuesday, prices traveled
down hill every day, reaching the low
point of th week on Thursday, when
the average waa 12 Ho lower than at the
close of the previous week. On Friday
hogs sold a title better, so that at the
close of the week the market la only 6$l)o
lower than It was at the cloa of last week,
tsklng the market aa a whole. Heavy
hojts, owing to their being In more plenti
ful supply, have declined the most, while
the very best light hogs have not shown
much change from day to day.

SHEEP The market wa absolutely bar
tMs morning, there being neither fresh
receipts nor stale holdings to offer for
sale. For the week the reoelDts hava
shown a liberal gain over the previous
wees, oeing aooui on a par witn the corre
sponding week or last year.
The tendency of values, not only here.
out at oir.er marxei points a well, h
beea downward all the week. Conditions
prevailing at th big consuming center
have not been such as to encourage very
urgent buying, and values being high to
start with, hav gradually eased off for
lack of mort energetio support. Taking
ths week as a whole, lambs are safely :&c
lower; some would say more than that;
with sheep 10le lower. With the killers
not such good buyers, a better class of
stuff haa beea going to feeder buyer this
week.
i Th aatn( off of lb market on killer
did not hsv ny sppsrent ffect upon
feeder buyers. There was a good repre
sentation of country buyers In the yards
all werk, beside which commission mt-n hl
a large number of orders to b filled. The
result wss s good, sctlve demand all the
week for both feeder sheep snd Ismba.
Everything that arrived sold very fr -cly
st prices practically steady with lad week
In other words, feeder sheep and lanihs
sold as high this week as sny time.
Prospects all seem to favor a rontlnueil
I large demand for feeders and everyone Is
j predicting a good, strong market for some
I time to come.
