o= THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY. AUGUST 4. 1888, the month of #77,045. This, it should be re- membered, is on a largely increased mileage over last year and the net earnings may show a decrease. Crop advices from the west were unfavorable and caused a moderate selling of grangers. The movement was not heavy, however, and_declines were trifling. Taking the day on the whole, with the ex- ception of Michigan Central, which closed 13; higher, the market was dull and nar- row and closing sales showed no changes of importance from Thursday.

Ream gave it as his opinion, based on private advices, that under no circumstances could the yield of spring wheat be within 10 per cent of last year's,when there raised, nccording to government figures, 156,000,000 bushels. The continuation of unfavorable weather conditions would, he thinks, still further reduce the yield from the estimate given.

Price ranges of the day were within % (@ 4c range, and clos- ing prices work a shrinkage of 1@%c in the day. Last prices were fractionally better than the opening. Oats opencd firm and later ruled higher, with August at one time exhibiting an ad- vance of fully 1¢, while extended futures were relatively less strong, though all op- i a fractional gain. Country shippers evidently prefer to hold back new oats a few days rather than undergo rigid inspection rules on soft grain, hence receipts continue light. The advance in August at the noon hour was attributed to the demand from shorts who feared a retarded move- ment of new oats. September and May were in fair request at %{(@ige advance, and inter- mediate months quiet but correspondingly firm. The in store market was quiet, with No. 2 0ld oats quoted at 25i¢c and cash sales chiefly by samule. ‘The provision trade was nervous and some- what unsatisfactory. Yesterday's severe “'slump” upset operators in their calcula- tions and made outsiders reluctant to take hold, and disturbed generally the entire market. Fair activity, however, character- ized to-day’s trading, but the offerings were much larger than the demand was able to absorb and a weak feeling prevailed.

There has been a good deal of talk the past few days among parties interested in the trade of northern Kansas about the drought said to prevail in that section. The crop of corn in that region was pretty well burned up last year, and a reliable party of prominence, who had spont the last four or five days there, stated to-day, in conversa- tion with the cashier of one of our national banks, that there is no doubt but what a se- vere drought is prevalent in northern Kan- sas this season. The hot dry winds blowing from the south and west are drying up the corn in the husks and the inhabitants are said to be very blue over the prospect. On this account many will move into Ne- braska, where we have no drought, next year. The sympathies of our people are with the sufferers who are likely to have a repetition of last year's crop failure, und they are cordiully invited to make their nomes in Nebraska, where the crops are reasonably certain, Produc nits, Kte.
