Trading in the wheat pit was not of large
volume, the uncertainty regarding finan

strain buyer and seller alike. While the
market at times wa quite nervoue. the
undertone wa one of conalderabl firmness.
The principal strengthening Influence wa
a firmer ton In the European grain mar

NEW YORK. Oct. 2.-Qlet condition
reigned throughout the brief session of the
Stock exchange today. Owing to the rule,
of procedure there by which loans made on
Friday carry over until Monday of the
following week, the borrowing of money
was to a great exte-nt In abeyance. The
market was active and the Influence toward
repression of speculative activity or deal-
still strong,
The bank statement caused a momentary
wavering, a report of a deficit below the
legal reservo exercising an Inevitable sen
timental Influence. Consideration .of the
statement detracted from Its depressing
Influence, In view of the extraordinary
events of the week, and the complicated
cross currents in the situation, the de
crease of lens than $13,000,000 In the reserve
held, wa considered not Immoderate. The
necessity of the situation and the courage
ous measures of relief adopted wer ex
planatory of the $1C,814,800 loan expansion.
It wss fortunate under the circumstances
that the clearing house banks had started
the week with so considerable a surplus
reserve as $11,182,650. The bank statement
was regarded, therefore, as allowing a re
assiirlng degree; of strength in th banking
position. For the conservation of this po
sition the decision of the United Clearing
house today to Issue clearing house cer
tificates seems to offer entire security. By
acceptances between the banks of these
certificates for settlement of debit bal
ances, the preservation of the cash de
posits from depletion' Is assured. The de
termination of the New York Savings
hanks to avail themselves of the permitted
requirement of sixty days' notice of with
drawals forms another safeguard. Finally,
the Inauguration of gold Imports opened a
channel of replenishment of the basis of
banking credits which promises effective
relief. The Joint effect of these actors,
was the feeling of encouragement with
which the week closed In Wall street.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par

CATTLE While there were a few car
of oattle reported In today, there were not
enough to cut any figure In the trade or
really make a market. For the week the
reoelpta show very little change a com
pared with tha previous weak, but a very
heavy gain over the corresponding week
of a year ago. The market on all kinds
of cattle has suffered a severe reverse, the
unsettled condition prevailing In financial
circles being reflected In th live stock
market.
In spit of the fact that recelpta of cat
tle this week hav been large, the supply
ot beef steer was at no time heavy. Btlll
th demand on th part of packers waa ex
tremely light, so much so In fact that had
it not been Tor th support given by out
side buyers it would have been a hard
matter on soma days to have fonud an
outlet for the receipts. As it waa, prices
broke rapidly her in common with the
market at all other selling points and at
the close of tha week fat cattle are gen
erally right at 60c lower than a week. ago.
A a matter or course, mere naa oeen
j mora or less unevenness so that while
. soma kind of cattle and some individual
sales hav not shown that much decline,
others have shown still more.
What has been said regarding the mar
ket on beef steers would apply In large
art to cowa and heifers, with this dlf
urence. that the receipts of th latter hav
been large all the week. It wa the heav
iest decline experienced In a long time ana
It 1 safe to say that cow stuff Is selling
at th lowest point touched this year.
The sharp decline in me market seemed
to induce pretty free buying on the part
of feeder, in fact a
good many would-
be feeder buyer have' been holding back
waiting for a break In prices before filling
their order and many of them took ad
vantage of the opportunity offered this
week. But in spite of free buying, th
market on feeders at the clos of the week
la generally 26o lower, with soms - kinds
undoubtedly 6O0 lower. On the other hand,
strictly choice or fancy cattle have tn
soms case ahown comparatively little
loss. Considering th Urge receipt of feed
er a very fair clearance was made.

HOGS Receipt of hog thl morning
wer th lightest that they hav been for
a great while on Saturday, only twenty
four car being reported in. This wa
hardly enough to really make a market, but
in addition to the fresh recelpis tnt-ie wer
twelve car carried over from yesterday.
The market opened 6c higher with very
little buying ou the part of psckera. In
fact, ther was really only one packer In
the market to any extent. The most of th
buying wa done by shippers who had or
ders to fill. After a doxen or fifteen loads
had changed hands th trade practically
came to a standstill, cankers leaving: tha

The reoelpte this week hav bee") very lib

week, but at ttie same time larger than A
J"r ago by a
turbed flnancts
bout o,ono head. The fli-
nctnl condition in the east.
hlch have had uch a depressing eff-ct
upon every branch of th live tmk trad
brought about a sharp break In sheep and
lambs, with the result that price at th
doe of the week are at the low point of
the season thus far.
Fackera have been very weak tniyer,
both tier and at all other market point,
with th result that a heavy decline In
prices haB taken place everywhere. Besides
being bearish In their views the amount of
their purchases has been much smaller than
usual, which of Itself wa sufficient to give
th market downward tendency. Owing
to the general lack of buying support, a
well as th bearish tendency of packer,
th market at the close of the week Is
safely 2fn4io lower than last week. As a
mattei of course some kinds have shown
a 1 , . 1 .1
when prices are going down bill rapidly
there has been more or less unevenmsa to
the trade. Thus something that packers
Just happen to need might not sell jo very
much lower, while something else equally
good would have to sell a good deal lower.
The market on feeder came In tor Its
share of the decline. Th trade on most
days was Inclined to be rather dull, buyers
throughout the week acting on the bear
side. Still price were very uneven and
there were plenty of cases where good feed
ers which happened to find favor In the
eye or country buyers sola at stesny
prices, even a late as the middle of the
seek Nntwlthat.nHlnir Ihl. th. market
continued down hill rapidly and at th c!oe

Like th useful cltlaens who manufacture
umbrellaa and sell waterproof coat, th
wholesaler of Omha who have been sell-
. inM 4,,ii,..u nrA.Tm nf winter foods have
1 taken a rest. October refuse to be classea
as a winter month and several weens 01
warm weather has caused a slack In tn
1 selling of everything from stovepipe to
. flannel shirts. Otherwise trade Is active,
J wholesale grocors being too busy to quote
! prices, snd In need of help to get the gooiis
I from warehouse to trains. Similar con-
, dltlons hav existed In the hardware linos
Predictions are made by dealers In all
lines that there must soon be a break In
prices. Few articles are Bold by the whole
salers of Omaha which have not wen ao-
.1 vattced In price during the ten monms or
TMa la earuwlnllv true Of dry gOOllSJ
and grocery lines. Hut It Is believed prloet
have reached their maximum.
Lower Price gooa.
Since midsummer there Tia been ''"
erlng tendency In staple commodities.
Wholesale gTocers declare it to be a yield
ing In values on the supply side of the
market In favor of encouraging the demand,
on lower levels, looking back over twenty
ears, or even flv years, some oeciaru
that the prices are "clear up," and "out
of roach. hut looking over the year of
1W7. when the maximum of prices wa
reached In March, there la an actual ten
dency to lower price.
With the dry goods dealers the outlooK
Is not so encouraging, but they have fait It
that the market will be lower on 00110a
I t, ..,! and shirtings,
nin.hims anrl nrlnta are esneoially hlKll
and notice has been given In the east oi ad
advance of half a cent a yard In ginghams,
which will be effective Monday morning,
October 28. Thle bring the price of th
f -Ingham In reds up to the level of tapl
ndlgoes and other llnea. A similar e.ondl
tlon exists In staple woven shirtings.
- Lining Not In Demand.
Trade in bleached good Is yery tjulet,
while the dry goods men of Omaha say
they ar selling no cambrlo linings. The.r
are practically off the market, and there.
Is little hope of a demand for lining In
tho future. Dealer say few dresses are
lined with cambric and the new method ot
making women's clothe ha demoralised
the trade on lining.
In underwear and hoalery th situation 1
Interesting. It Iibb kept th manufacturer
busy mixing cotton with the best of all
wool underwear In order to keep the price'
down. "A pure wool law would not be a
bad thing," said a dealer till week, "but
both consumer and retailer are respon
sible for tho mixing of cotton with tha
best of wool. They get In the habit of pay
ing about so much per doxen for under
wear, and they don't want to go higher. '
The customer gets underwear from one
year to another for a certain price, and It
Is hard for the dealer to secure more. The
manuiaclurer accommodates both by leav.
Ing the price the same, but making a gar
ment with more cotton In It."
Pay Hlgn (or Hosiery.
But prlcea of underwear are tip, ami
dealer are having a hard time to supply
the trade for duplicate order. In hosiery
a similar "onditlon exists. There are no
"cheap cotton hose" In the Omaha market.
The cheap Oie are no longer cheap. In
other lines of hi,icry. which are now being
sold for next summer, the tendency Is to
more expensive wear, especially In women's
hose. These will not be so fancy, but of
better quality and higher price.
Shirtings are sold out for next year. Soma
orders will have to be cancelled. Dealer
and manufacturers are doing their best to
git goods, but every niece comes with a
BtrUKule. The mercerised shirts are the
populsr ones for hiai car. uie coiona
ehlrt with the stiff bosom has followed the
paper collar and neck handkerchief, and
may be offered by some dealer, but ar
not manufactured nor sold by th first clasg
houses of Omaha.
Jn grocery lines some buyers are In tha
market for holiday specials, but the retail
era are busy with the heavy fall trad
and orders for staple goods preclude any
thing else at the present time. Notice hag
been received that the tomato packing sea
Bon Is closed, except In a few remot fac
tories. Ouesse received by grocer ar
placed at from 8,500,000 to 9,600,000 case.
This I about th full pack, which wa pre
dicted and should make the prle easy.
Slight Changes In Drng Frier.
Dealers In drug are buying goods In A'
hand-to-mouth manner and do not appear
to be Interested In the slight changes re
corded in opium, salad oil, balm of Otlead
buds or cocoa butter. Opium la higher, but
there la a lack of demand for it. The d te
rn and for quinine shows no Increase, and
the market ha developed nothing In th
way of new features. Prices on some olive
oils have been reduced from a cent to a
cent and a half. Cocoa butter Is gener
ally firm, but the higher prices have acted
aa more or less of a restraint upon the buy
ing Interests. In a limited way, German
goods can be had at 48 cents, but higher
prices are generally asked.
