THE OMAHA DAILY BE"E : SUNDAY , JUtfE 1C , 1805. 15 Business in a Jobbing Way Shows Improve ment During the Past Week. HOPES FOR THE FUTURE ARE VERY BRIGHT Continued Farornblo lloports ( torn Alt flee- tloni Tributary toThli Marktt Are Ilnr- Ing Their Kffect Upon the Volume of Trttde Manufacturer * ' Dolngi. Trade condition ! generally have Im proved during the past wekk. though the change for the bolter ha * not been very marked. It Is a fact , however , that after weeks of waiting nnd expectancy It la possible to report BO me little Improvement In the demand for Htaplo goods In most lines , The continued favorable weather which , has caused n rapid growth of crops In all sections of the state has not only produced a better feel fnir , but has put what money there Is Into circulation. The prospective purchasing power of the people promises to be greater as every succeeding day carries the crops nearer to the date when they may be con nldcrcd secure from drouth damage. Coun try merchants arc commencing to got over their hesitancy nnd are showing an Inclina tion to buy a little more freely. Trade , however , Is still limited very largely to the necessities , articles that come under the head of luxurlee not mov ing at all or In limited quantity. Thus In the line of groceries , fancy canned goods , extra fine dried fruits and fancy goods of nil kinds nro In very light demand , but the staples nro movfng out quite freely. Hardware Jobbers report the same condi tions prevailing In that line ns well , nnd It Is estimated that at least DO per cent of the articles carried by the hardware houses are goods for which them Is almost no de mand at the present time , though usually In good reauest. Kvery line ot business shows the Kama disposition to practice economy In the matter ot buying goods on the part of consumers. 1'rlcen on many lines of merchandise arc advancing and the general tendency Is toward n firm market. With the exception of wool , the leading staples of the country ure considerably higher than two months ago and the result Is a firmer market for the goods that are now being placed upon the market. SOME PACTOnY FACTS. Omaha Is acquiring quite a reputation In the west for the manufacture of line car riages. The Drummond Carriage com pany yesterday shipped a two-seated double carriage to Idaho , being the second order from that state filled this month. Omaha business men nro also learning that the best work Is to be had at home nnd that It Is not neccpcary to go east for a car riage of any kind. ChnrleH Molz , P. K. Sanborn , Dr. lco , W. II. Hutherford and T. C. Haydrn are among the recent con verts to rubber tires and ball bearings. 8. F , Oilman , who Is prominently Identified with the milling Interests of the state , re ports a largo acreage of wheat In the vicin ity of Valentine. Ills company supplied the farmers with a largo quantity of seed wheat and the acreage Is largo , whllo the prospects for a largo crop are llrst class. The Omaha Upholstering company put In a plant Home time ago for the manufacture of wood frames for furniture. Previous to that time It had been compelled to ship nil of Its frames from Chicago or other eastern points. After i-oine months ex perience Mr. Shlpman , manager of the company , says that wood working can be done Just ns cheap In Omaha as In Chicago find there Is the saving In freight. The lumbnr all comes from the south and It tin be shipped here just as well as to Chicago , and then here In the manufac tured Htate. Mr. Shlpman would llkn to see capitalists put their money Into manu facturing. Thn Haarmnn Vinegar company , which bought the stock of the Qedney I'lcke ! company , utter the lattcr's factory burned , Is preparing to put up pickles on a largo scale this fall. It lias contracted with local gardeners for over 300 acres of cucumbers for pickling , besides several acres of on ions , beans , etc. It could liavo contracted for almost double Urn acreage If It had been prepared to hnmllo the product , as the gardeners are all anxious to grow pickling tstoek. The trend of commerce and Industry , ays the Now York Journal of Commerce , Is ns surely westward ns Is thP flow of popu lation , and wo cannot afford to allow our Indifference to western bluster to blind us to the energies , abilities , wealth nnd opportunities of that section. Changcn In the locality and dlrw.tlon of Industry often occur In this country with startling speed , Frequently we see whole mills and factor ies moving westward a thousand miles , and trades that a few years ago centered on this sljo of the Alleghcntcs have crossed never to return. As movements like these usually como singly they generally make little Impression , except In the aggregate retrospect. AH a rule , they are change : In the direction of natural development , nnd rmist be accepted ns working out the country's well being through a survival of thn fittest. Katz-Novens company Is making up n large line of wool overcoats for the fall trade , which Is something new In the line of manufacturing for this city. It has beer making wool clothing for some time , a : well as the old line of overalls , etc. , bul wool overcoats are a new venture. The W. A. Page Soap company report * an Increase In buslnofs amounting to 4 : per cent over this time last year. Davis & Cowglll are figuring on extend Ing their Iron works at South Omaha They hnvo already replaced the cnginn Ir the machine shops with a larger one. Thli week they will put all their men , forty-tlvf In number , both In the Omaha and Boutl Omaha works , on full time. OUTLOOK WAS NKVKK UKIdllTKR. rurmors Jiibllnnt nnd the Tlaslueii Mer Correspondingly Happy. In discussing condition of crops and thi business outlook for the future , the loca representative of the Snow , Church am Company Commcrlcal agency has the fol lowing to say : It Is very gratifying to be able to ua ; that It now appears the fear that thi small grain In the utnto of Nebraska , I not absolutely ruined , would bo but a smal portion of a crop , was groundless , as w have satisfactory reports from a largo par of the ututu gulng to show that the cro ] will not only bo practically a full one , bu nn extraordinarily largo ono In many parte There are , of course , nome portions of th state that hnvo suffered In no far as th umall grain Is concerned , but In those part of the state In which there have been a any Umo such hopes , they have beoi mare than fullllled and we are Informs that In many localities the farmers will b forced to meet the question ns to wher they will llnd a place In which to stor their products , with practically an abac lute assurance of an extraordinarily larg crop of corn , with the certainty now of : largo crop of Hinall grain , Nebraska Is cci tnlnly In a condition to be envied , and th farmers throughout the state , and th dealers who huvo been dependent upon th farmer * , are no doubt feeling as jubllan us the occasion demands. During the pa : week nil sections of Nebraska have receive moisture which , although In the judgmen of those competent to say , was not needec Kill did no harm. Hualness In all lines has taken on a vcr flourishing look , moro particularly sine : ! t has become known that the small gral crop wnft assured. The boot and shoo dual crs , hardware , furniture , and dealers In prac tlcully all lines , report a very satlsfactor condition of triulo and report , too , an c > tension Into new territory , nnd this las Booms to bo the care In all lines , so thn It may bo said truthfully that Omaha I this year extending , at least toward th west very maturlally , her boundaries fa trade. There seems to bo n considerable amour ot worry over the falling oft In the clem nnct-s of Omaha , nnd the reason for th fulllnff off Is being very diligently sous ! by a great many people. The reason ma bo nearer home than a great many pcopl Kupposo. The fact tlmt sometime ago th i batiks ot Omaha united In forcing a paj ment on the part of their depositors c exchange and collection charges whlc hitherto had not been enforced may liuv had more to do with reducing Omaha clem anccs than would bo thought nt the lln clnnco. It la undoubtedly true that n part of th Omaha houses are making their collectlor on checks pent them by their custompi through banks , at points other thu Omaha , nnd the banks at Lincoln , Pn mout nnd other points are being used fc this purpose , as come banks In these plarc are according the privilege of free collet tlon to many ot the Omaha people. Up to the time of this radical change o the part of the banks the banks ha charged tholr customers for exchange pui chased ami hnd credited them with e > change deposited. Wo believe that It 1 now the rule to charge them exchange pui chased and to allow no credit for exchang : deposited. This has forced a great man houses which have heretofore purchased ei change to keep accounts In rhlcago an elsewhere and houses nt Omaha , which ute to that tlmo had been paying their uuster Indebtedness with tholr own checks , hav been forced to pay In eastern exchange , on Ing to the collection charges on the uai of th Omaha , banks , and they pay tnel astern Indebtedness by their own check 4 drafts upon thfjr e.tutcw accouni ; We know of many houses doing business at Omaha which up to two years nao kept their entire bank balances at Omaha and which are now keeping but a small balance at Omaha and quite a reaper-table balance at Chicago nnd New York. They pay all eastern bills and. In fact , nil bills every where , except those nt Omaha by tholr checks upon Chicago nnd New York. While there may bo Just ns much money being handled nnd distributed In Omaha todiy as there was two years ago. the clpirancos may not show It , ns for reasons nlx > ve. n large part of the money now being dis bursed does not go through the clearing house. In conclusion , ns to the business of Omaha nnd the state of Nebraska , we wou'.d say that we have no doubt but that the fall will see n complete revival In nil lines , n commencement of the return to Omaha of eastern money for Investment , a [ taxation on the part of the banks In the late and the allowance on their part of the eturn to trade of the money which has up o this time been hoarded In their vaults. CLUUOt 11AV1ItOLLlM ) A WAV. railo I * Hotter Thnn It Was Ono Ycnr Ago Tnilnr. W. II. Iloberson , Omaha manager of the 1. O. Dun & Co. Mercantile agency , began Is usual trade talk by saying there never rns n tlmo when the merchants In Nc- raska wora owing so little money ns oday ; there never was n time when they vere FO certain to pay existing debts as ow , nnd there never was a time when tielr pro.'nects for being nblo to meet tu * urn obligations wern mor promising , nnd o these facts alone hn attributed the more bcral policy Inaugurated during the past en days by some of Omaha's leading Job- ers In the matter of credits. Just so long ns uncertainty prevailed , the Ines were drawn to the utmost tension , ut now that thn clouds have rolled our vay , nnd confidence ns to what the harvest halt be has taken possession of nearly very one. nil wo need Is a llttlo patience nlll the reward can bo distributed. The ledgers of nearly every jobbing house n Omaha , closed last week with a record f transactions materially In excess of the veek covering the same period last month. Orders for fall delivery never were so nnny In number at this season of the year , onto lines being already oversold , Our manufacturing Industries , all things lonsldcred , are doing well , anil to these itilldera of cities just a little encourage ment nt nn opportune time will Increase heir numbers nmong us , nnd help to make Omaha thnt which she has a right to be- ome a great city. The signs of the times point to a d cldedly mproved condition of things throughout the ountry. nnd Omaha's bank clearings should eon get Into line with other cities showing an Increase , Instead of a decline every Trade continues quiet at the packing houses , with receipts of cattle and hogs xtremcly light. VIIONC1 VIK\V OF TI1K CATTLE TRADE. lock Not Likely to il fltmlnlshrd by tlio Decrease nf JEnngo * . ST. LOUIS , Juno 15. The Butchers nnd Packers Magazine , to be Issued today , has hla to say anent the cattle supply : Arti cles have appeared In leading dally papers of New York and Chicago showing that vlth the disappearance of the vast ranges , > y dividing Into farms , cattle would dis appear and beef would become a luxury. This Is fallacious reasoning , for as a mat er of fact , the beef of the country comes from the farms , not the ranges. There nro thirty-one farm states , with a total area of 1,103,002 square miles , nnd according to the report of the United States Agri cultural lepartment on January 1 , 1S3I , the estimated number of cattle In those states vrns 30.000,472. The range states and terri tories , seventeen In number , contain nn area of l,79t,977 sqflnre miles , nnd In Janu ary , 1893 , the estimated number of cattle wns only 20.SOS.I73. The range stales there fore , with n third more area than the farm states , have u third less cattle , and they constantly multiply In the farm region. Texas with considerable moro area than Illinois , Indiana , Iowa , Missouri , and Ar- kunsa.s combined , has nearly CO per cent less cattle.

BOTTOM FELL CUT OF THAT CEREAL Stop I.OM Onlcr nnd ixhinsteil : : Mnrcl" * with Vicious Short Helilntr bj the name Talent Help ml the Doiin- Ynird Tendency. CinCAQO. Juno 15. Tlie wheat bulls on the Hoard of Tradu wore unhorsed today and routed , temporarily at least. Wheat , which sold a few days ago at 8214C , went down today with a "sickening thud" to 74 > ic , The loss In price only stopped with the closing of the session , and wns at the bottom of a 2)4c decline , compared with yes terday. Corn nnd oats were also very weak. Provisions alone of the speculative articles made a jr.ilir In value. All the ble wheat bulls apparently be came convinced some days ago that the advance could not bo held , and commenced to let KO their lines. They have been'doing this quietly but effectually , and their un loading IMS been largely responsible for the weakness which 1ms ruled for some days. Yesterday the fact became known nnd started a selling ntampedo on the part of the longs who had been left by their shrewder associates , nnd today they were tumbling over each other to get rid of their long stuff , which showed such a handsome prullt but a short time ago. As usual , the country was slow In getting on and found Itself holding the empty bag. Ono of the most discouraging teatures which has brought about the break , which wan at ono Umo nJmoBt a panic , was the fact that the advance appears to have caused a serious decline In exports , us they were l,2UOOoU bu. less from both coasts than the week before , or 1,782,000 bu. only , against Z.ittl.'JW bu. before. Conservative operators urge that there will bo some export surplus , however small , and that prlccu hero cannot be main tained at that price which will render ship ments impossible , as the recent price seems to have done. So there was a general dispo sition to get rid of long stuff , and the liquidation was enormous. Stop loss aiders ! nnd exhausted margins , with vicious short Rclllnir by the local tal ent , helped along the downward tendency and completed the rout of the bulls. Crop news also seems to bo shitting more favor ably for the bears , and advices were nu merous tending to Indicate a fair crop. The corn market was fairly active and very weak. It suffered a brcnk of l } c per bu. , which would ordinarily be considered a disastrous loss to make In corn for one day. July opened at from 494c ! to W74e , as against G < Hc at the close yesterday , and after recovering to 4DKC , slumped to 48c , which was its value at the close. Kor n Saturday , trading In the oats mar ket was active , and business aggregated comparatively heavy. Considerable long stuff continued to bo offered , mostly In small lots , which were consumed quite readily by the crowd In general. The do- cllm : In wheat and corn prices was also re garded as an effect In reducing values. September ranged from 2DK-C to E9Hc , resting at the low price , a decline of % c since yesterday. The provision market started weak In sympathy with the grain prices , but closed strong on good buying , which , however , was principally duo to the covering of shorts. The weakness In wheat permitted a good deal of j > ork. lard nnd ribs being bought without sending prices up materi ally , nnd the shorts bought upon such an expectation. After a preliminary decline ol 6c In pork and about 2i c In the other ar ticles , pork advanced until , compared with IU price yesterday , it was 5c higher. Lrfird In from 2V4c to 5c up and ribs from 74c ! to lOc advance. Receipts for Monday : Wheat , 27 cars ; corn , 20) cars ; oats , 210 cars ; hogs , 25,001 head. For the week : Hogs , 125,000 head.

Poultry nr- riving from such n distance naturally has a very heavy shrinkage , even during cold weather. but when th' ) weather Is hot , as It has been during part of the time recently , the loss Is very heavy , and arrivals during last month have In Instance * shown such a heavy shrinkage thnt shippers Imve lost money on their shipment * .

A car coming through during favor- nble weather and receiving proper care- should not lose over r > or 6 per cent , but the loss often reaches 9 or 10 per cent during the summer , nnd In some cases mor than thnt. While the shrinkage Is heavy from the time that the poul try starts until It leaches the market It Is al most ns large nnd In cases larger during the time that It Is collected by the shippers In the country , than when It Is louilcd on the cars to bo shipped east.

The market was fliiodeiT-'WItU blackberries. Fancy Oregon strawberries were In liberal supply. The short crop of mosl California fruit's this year , or at least th reduced yield per tree. Is attributed to the cold weather early In the year and to sulmequent rains. Formerly the seasons In California were divided Intu two periods , wet nnd dry. Hut within the last few years the seasons seem to hnvo undergone a change , there having been much more rain and at unusual periods. A theory prevails that the change re- nulls from the grent Increase In territory under Irrigation , causing n molster atmosphere and a greater rain precipitation over large ureas , which in former times were visited by rains only during thn winter months. The greater part of the California cherry crop has been picked und apricots nrc ready for mar ket. Recent high north winds throughout lha Sacramento valley damaged trees and blew many cherries to thn ground , thus to n consider able extent shortening the yield. Apricots will provo a light crop , although there will bo more marketed than wns expected earlier In the season. The present outlook for peaches In California Is good , but many fear the June drop ping , which Is expected to lie heavier than usual and thereby reducing the crop. Pears generally promise an abundant crop. The cool weather In Oregon has been followed by warm , clear atmosphere , greatly to the bene fit of all fruits. Cherries are ripe and growers are picking n heuvy crop. Prunes , apple * , peach * * and plums never looked belter at this time of Ihe year , and throughout Ihe groalcr part of Oregon hand pruning -will have to be resorted lo. Hut In Washington the fruit crvji generally will be poorer than WHS first anticipated. The cool spell has been longer and more marked In that state' tbnn either Oregon or California , causing n , large port of the fruit tn drop from the trees. especially cherries and plums. Harllett pears and Italian prunes , however , are exceptions to the rulennd np to dale these fruits look prom ising.

A few loads of pretty fair bcof steers were nmonp the offerings' , whllo the jnlanco of the receipts wns mndo up of n little of everything. The packers ap peared to want n few cattle nnd bid fully steady prices on everything. The move ment , howpvurvns ilrnRKj' . ns has been the rule of late , buyers unil Rollers being slow to como together. Severn ! loads were not ottered on the market nt all. the re ceivers shipping them on to ChlouRM.

Kccclpts liavo dropped down until twenty-live or thirty loads constitute nu averngo run. If the scarcity of cattle \vcro thn only Irawback to the making of u mm ket the cause for dissatisfaction would not be no great , but unfortunately tlio mm ket haw fallen completely Into the dumps. With such light offerlm ; * it would be only natural to expert nn nctlve market. On the contrary , thi ? trndo has been extremely dull. Salesmen Halm that the- buyers do not wiittt the cuttle bad enough to bid up on them. On the other hand the buyers EnIhat because fa few cattle uro coming Kellers expect a premium on their cattle and are unwilling to accept tlio nctunl market value for their holding ! ! .
