A General Revival of Trade in All Branches, Talks With Some of the Prominent Local Wholesale Men, Now that the chilly days of Inclpient spring are merging Into the sunny, balmy Nebraska May weather, the local spring trade 1 beglnning to revive, and all indicationa polnt to a prosperous year for both wholesale and retail busl- ness. A reporter called upon some of the wholesale men yestorday and see curlng an expression of opinion from each one on the subjoct of futare pros- pec's, has compilad an artiole which may be of interest to those who are concerned in the buslness welware of Omaha. “The wholeealo grocery trade,” said a representative of a prominent local firm, “is booming. ~The Indications for brisk business this year are highly favor- able. The retail merchants throughout Nebraska are not purchasing in sach Iarge quantities this year as last, but are enforcing collections squarely, buying goods In small orders, but paying the wholesalers In cash. 8o thatin reality the general condition of the trade is much better."” In the line of agricultural lmplamenh th ereare nogreat prospectsfor the season’s trade. The local representatives of the bustness claim that the farmers through- out the state are ‘“‘cleaning up” and re- pairing old machinery, lmtnd of buylng the mew, on acconnt of hard times, Nevertheless, the business Is opening up well for the spring, after the sluggish months of January and February. In the wholesale hardware business prospects are reported generally favor- able. *‘Our businesa is fast settling to a firm basls,” sald one man, ‘“‘and I believe that we shall have a good year.” “‘How is the cigar and tobacco trade?” asked the reporter, addressing himself to a local representative of the business. T {s beglnning to Improve,” was the reply. “Daring the winter business has been excessively sluggish, but now that spring is advancing we are beginning to recelve a good many orders from our men on the road. I believe that the year will be & good one. Mo, I do not sppre- hend that the recent law enacted by the leglslature relative to the sale of tobacco to minors will injure our business in any alarming degree. The truth of the mat- ter is that if boys want tobacco they will ensily find ways of getting it.” I belieye that this year will be a falr- ly productive ons for the wholesale dry goods trade,” sald a merchant. “We are handling a larger line of business, though I do not find that collections are belng as generally met as last year. Our spring trade {s openlog up very riskly.” The wholesale hat and cap men say that they never had a more prosperous time than during the present month. January and February were productive of but little business, but March and April have brought out a large volume| of business. Inthe line of wholesale millinery there is the same goneral re- vival and a prosperous season’s trade 1s anticipated. The business of the local distlllerles and brewerles 1s also showing a goodly revival as spring wears on. “No,” said a prominent representative of Omaha’s distillery Interests, *'1 do not beliove that the opening of the Nebraska City dlstil- lery will at all affect our business, I ap- prehend this year a good business, prob- nbly better than that of last year.” **How Is the wholesale drog business opening up this season]” was asked of a reprossntative of a_local firm. “Very fine, indeed,” was the reply, ‘‘and from present prospects I am Inclined to belleve that we are going to have an unusually prosperous season this year. Why? You see, on account of the somewhat depressed condition of business, the retail merchants througheut the country have been purchasing in a hand to'mouth sort of wayand their stocks are now nearly depleted. Just ss soon as the spring fairly opens up, they will have to replenieh, and the wholesale buslness will commenoce to boom.” *‘The wholesale boot and shoe trade,” eald a prominent merchant, *“Is beginning to manifest signs of spring activity. Durlng the winter, business has been very dull, but orders are now coming in With regard to the impression that St. Joe is the great wholesale centro for t class of goods, I can say that it 1s decld- edly erroneous. Of course, that city be- ing contiderably older and wealthier, has had vestly the advantage of Omshs, but 1 believe that our clty is fast gaining on her, not only in this brluch of wholesale trade, but in many othere.” The local wholesale jewelry and notion trade s showlng decided signs of spring improvement, aithough it has been quite brisk all winter. A good deal of business will be transacted this year, and one or two firms are maklng propsrationa for ex- tonsive importations from Europe.

Nevertheless, you will find that there is lightlng power enough in the apparatus to easily illa- minate a dark room.

The Mysterious Death of a Two-Xear- Ol1d Ohild, Coroner Droxel was called upon yes- terday morning to examine a case which presents gome features of sad Interest. About thres o’clock yesterday morning Drs.

It appears that the ittle fellow had been sleeping with a strange person and had been ununually restless. The mother arose aud punished him, striking him quite severely on the breast. Convulslons ensued, whicn proved fatal. Some of the neighbors and ome of the physlclans attendant thought that the case ought to be investigatad, but Coro- ner Drexel, who made a visit to the resl- dence of the family, has declded to hold no Inquest. There s nothing to prove that the child’s death was caused direct- ly by tho beating it recelved, though there Is every reason to_belleve that it was the remote cause. Dr. Murray, who is the family physician, says that the child was sfflicted with heart disease and that the fright 1t received probably caused its death, The mocther can hardly bs censured for what was probablya thought- less act, but the result 1s a lesson sad and terrible to parents.
