THE CONDITITION OF TRADE. Money In a Very Satisfactory Con~ dition. A GOOD DEMEN® FOR FUNDS. And Plenty of Oapital to Meet All Requirements—Business Excep- tionally Good--1886 Com- pared With 1880, Review of the Local Field. The money market is denominated by bankers as in a very satisfactory condition, snug and trim, with a good demand for funds and plenty of fundsto meet the de- mand. The clearings show a small increase over last year's footings ut this date. Mr. Hughes makes the footings $3,680,357.10, an increase of 4 per cent. We were permitted to-day to inspect the teller's blotter of the Omaha National bank in October, 1505, and on October 26 of that yoar the clearings of the national banks of Omaha were as follow: Omaha Natioual bank, credit. £30.25 First National bank, credit... . 22,40 Balance. ...ooviiiiniiiaiiin ... 81685 But we have grown since then. General trade is exceptionally good and increasing daily, and indications are that Omaha will do the largest trade in its history during the year of 1850, Collections are satisfactory and much bet- ter than a year since. Prices are fairly steady, though sugurs are somewhat weaker under advices that the Louisiana crop is very heavy and the belief that the trust has alarge surplus stored. Coffees advanced ¢ per pound for choice Rio the past week notwithstanding the fact that Arbuckle has been, and is a persistent bear. The butter market is somewhat demoral- ized and it is feared that operators in this specialty have lost heavily on the scason’s business. Packing butter has not been quoted 80 low for years as to-day anda good articlo of this grade is quoted at b@ic per pound, which is but little above the price of tallow and grease. According to the New York Commercial Bulletin the fire loss in the United States and Canada for August ammounted to $11,- 153,850. The losses for the last ejght months foot up $36,460,350, against §88,025,320 for the corresponding period last year. At thirty-seven cities the bank clearings {for the month of August umounted to #4,273,- 670,611, or 11.3 per cent larger than the re- turns in 1888, For the eight months already elapsed of the present year the clearings have aggregated a total of $35,071,603,516, against $31,004,070,203 in 1888, 888,485,003, 442 in 1887, and $30,006,647,141 in 1836, These figures reflect un enorwous volume of gon- eral business, The claim is made that $600,000,000 of capital is at the pre: invested in the electrical industry in the United States. Of this vast sum $200,000,000 18 credited to the telegraph and teiephone compauies, £300,000,000 to the electric railways in the country, the s light companies, and the numerous factories, and $100,000,0.0 to the manufactories of electrical supplics, wive, cable and electrical appliances generally. The linseed oil trust, which is composed of forty-cight companies with a capial stock of $13,781,000, has declared four quarterly divi- dends since November 1, 1888, Many American cotton factories are said to be turning out coarse or medium goods at 88 low i cost as the mills of Great Britain. The shipment of California raisins from the coast bas begun, though it will be sev- eral weeks befor the movement of the crop ‘will become general. There will be consid- erable competition this season ia the artistic methods of packing. Some packers have gone 10 & heavy expense 1n the preparing of fancy Ppapers, with elaborato designs. A Rio cable says: ‘‘On accountof the quan- ity of shriveled beans the coffee crop loses in weignt and we reduce our estimates. We estimato tho present crop at about 1,750,000 bags, including late coffee. Crop accounts continue bad, and we are apprehensive re- garding next season’s yield. I'rost has ap- ared 1n some places 'in the Santos district, ut no damage was done, and the flowering there 18 favorable.” Mackerel are still scarce, and _though two fishing months remain, it is safe to predict that the catch of 1850 will be the smallest ever known. Prices remain very high. Sugar is weak. The southern sugar crop ‘promises to be the largest in the history of this country, and bids fair in consequence to materially reduce, if not wipe out, the profits of the trust. From rome California sources there ap- pears rather more urgency to sell new-crop raisins. Good brands London layer can be contracted for at $1.85 free on board or $2.20 1aid down. ‘The pack of salmon in British Columbia waters is unprecedented this season. Esti- mates ars made of a total of 425,000 cases. Bixteen canneries there are credited with putting up 270,000 cases.

Catte Saturday, Sept. 14. There was no end to the cattlo here to-day, the receipts being the heayiest since the first of the week, but the trade was_extromely slow. The distillery cattle which were mentioned as being sold yesterday were re- celved und weighed up to-day, There were more good cornfed cattle here than for sev- eral days, and theso was at least one very primo bunch. The packers were not in need of many cattlo, or rather thoy had on band about ull they could use, and no one tried to buy. The feeling on the market was about steady, although the buyers claimed that if they bought any they would have to buy them lower. A fow natives sold at §3.45@ 875 and some western steers ut $3.15. Al thougi there were so many cattle here, there was no great number of feeders on sale, and as usual ou Saturday, the trade in that class of cattle was slow, Hogs, The hog market showed some improvement to-day und heavy hogs which sold largely at $3.70 yestorday, with a fow loads at $3.75, sold quite largely at §3.80 to-day, with some Bt $3.85, It would certainly be a conserva- tive estimato to place the aavance at 5@10c, The market on hght hogs was be higher, and 82,054 00 was paid for light sorts. Tho ad- vance was. really greater thun might appear from tho sales, as the quality of light hogs was very inferior Lo what it was on yesters day.

The work has hitherto never been performed in its_entirety, the Theatro Lyrique having ouly represented the third act. It was Mottl who lust season produced Chabrier’s “Gwendoline” in Carlshruhe, and the in- terest muanifested n the German city toward neglected French works is in some- what startling contrast to the difference evinced in Paris with regard to the most fa- mous operas of Germauy, ‘This appears o be an unfortunate year for star actresses, First, Mary Anderson de- clded that the condition of hier health would not permit hier to act. this year, und all the engagements made for her by Mr. Abbey were cancelled.

Reoeipts of Corn Slightly Excced the Estimate— A Quniet Day in Provisions—Demand Ac- tive For Hogs. CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS. Cmicaco, Sept. 14.—[Special Telegram to Trr Bee,)—The bull snap of Wednesday and Thursday, which was consaérably re- lated yesterday, was almost invisible to- day. The market was narrow, outside basi- ness was conspicuous by its absence, and the'. local sealpers were playing the unprofitablo game of ‘‘dog-eat-dog.”’ The cables were barely steady and orders for foreign ac- counts were principally to sell. In the northwest, however, a different stato of af- fairs was visible, for, with =recoipts .ot 103,101 bushels at Duluth to-day, the demand from shippers advanced that market 1c per bushel at the most active time of the day. Minneapolis received about 200,000 bushels, but a good demand for flour was ad- vised from there on both foroign and domes- tic accgunt. The very small proportion of the contract grade visible in the current re- ceipts was conspicuous today, as out of 213 car loads of winter wheat received only two graded No. 2, and out of 1,255 cars for the week, only 61 were of the contract quality.” The price for December was confined to n range of 8{c, the lowest point having been 78%c¢ and the igh- esy 70%oc. The onnnln% was fairly firm, and under good buying by several lead- ing local speculutors the high point was reached early in the season, but, lncking further support, it gradually sagged towards the lower point, which it regehed about 12:30 p. m., but recovered slightly, closing at T8 @7875c, or l5c improvement over yester- day’s resting figures. The receipls of corn than ostimated yesterday. ‘I'he weather throughout the corn belt was forcing the maturity of the cropand the opinion was general that this year's crop is all but past the danger line of frost. Export clearances were quite light and the foreign market eas; Orders from the country were mostly ou the buying side, but there was very little of such business done, local speculators being the principal operators to-day. The closing prices were as follows: September, (5 October, 321¢c, and May 34}gc. These prices were }{(@!<c lower than at_the correspond- ing time yesterday. Receipts of oats again overran the estimate by 40 cars, and this fact, with the continued heaviness in corn, caused an easy market. A fair business was done in December and May ut about 3¢ difference, and there was initial trading in the January delivery at 201{c. May was in fair demand all day at 233{¢, whilo ne ar months were dull. ~ With- drawals for shipment were smalier than the recent average, and cash trading was chiefly by sample, with No..2to go to store selling sparingly at 191gc. The provision trade closed the week in a quiet manner. In no department was_there even a moderate movewment to-day, and there was _development to occasion’ scarcely a passing market, A slow ¢ondition of affairs existed and price changes were limited and witkout fouture. Compared with yester- day’s final quotations the closings were un- changed for lard and October short ribs, 5¢ higher for September short ribs and Octo- ber pork, and 21¢c higher for January, pork.

New York, Sept. 14.—|Special Telegram to Tne Bee.|—Sr1ocks—The trade at large reatized last night, and but for the London strike the news list would have closed very much depressed. The failure of prices to again move up briskly has given rise to doubts regarding the sincerity of the glow- ing bull expressions from the leaders of the so-called bull campaign. The question of stringent money was expected to again con- front the market. That other and more yex- atious question—rallroad mismanagewent— threatens to break in and counteract for the remarkable carrying business, which should result in unprecedented earnings. When the market opened this morning the new cuv in rates iu the west by the Chicago, Buriing- ton & Northern had a depressiug effect on the stock market, checking buying, while more encouragement was given the bears, with the result of opening the market from 3¢ to 3 per cent lower than lastevemung's closing figures, A general declining ten- dency also prevailed during the subsequent dealings, but fluctuations were even smalier than those of yesterday, and no movement of any importance took place anywhere in the regular list. Louisville & Nashville showed some animation, and it was well held throughout.

The Uneasy Oondition of Money Oroates Some Surprise. FOREIGN EXCHANGE STRONGER. Activity Prevails in New York Stock Trading—Grain Prices Favor Sollers—Enlargod Packe ing in the West. A Rerume of the Country. Crireaco, N, Sept. 14.—[Special Telogram to Tiue Brn.|—The chief foature in the finan- cial situation, and the ono which created some surprise, because it was unlooked for, was the uneasy condition of the money mar- ket. Bankers state that although there is an incroasing demand for the surplus of funds by the grain trade at other points, the enlarged use in that channel has been offset by decrensed calls for discounts from other sources. Maturing paper has also been protptly met since tho requests for renowals wore smaller than during the summer months: - The result is an casier tendency of the loan market, at a time when firmness was anticipated. Monoy is obtainuwble on call loans, backed oy fancy collaterals, at 414@5 per® cent, 5@5'§ per cent on time and @3 per cent for mercantile paper. There is more money going to grain _ districts. Calls for funds from other grain concentrating points is increasing, and Duluth and Minne- apolis are also arrauging for funds with which to bay for wheat that is expected to arrive in large quantities during the coming sixty days. The heavy distribution of money by the government for bonds has largely contributed to the relief of the eastern money market, and the recent fears of a stringenoy - there have disappeared. New York exchange was 1o good supply and dull at 25@00 cents discount per §1,000, and closed at 40, For- cign exchange, althouh in good supply, was stronger, and documentary steriing bills on London ranged at $182 and closed steady. The jobbing trade in dry goods, clothing, dware and miscollancous mer- » continues active and collections are rading on the New York stock exchange was active and the market showed & decided tendency to broaden, but, as usual, a good percentage of the business was in special lines. An unsettled feeling prevailed and the undertone most of tae week was bullish, the general disposition 1z to buy on every break. Londen was firmer and highor and liperal orders were from that quarter to buy Reading and I Tennesseo coal, Missour: Pacific, Lomsville & Nasbville and the Granvers were strong favorites of the bull party, Chicago operators bought the last named early in the week and prices on the entire li ved upward. There wi little news d which_had any material effect on v except disquieting rumors from the western roads rate situation. ‘The refusal of the cast-vound lines to prorate, it was_thought, would induce the Chicago, Burlingtou & Northern to reduce its through rate to enable it. to get suMcient busi- ness to vay expenses, The lust three days’ trading was marked by general disposition on the part of holderd to realize profits, and the selling re- suited in carrying prices down. Trusts r ceived moderato attention. Sugar led them, but no features were developed. While the closing sules on A majority of the active properties recorded slight advance, a number showed mod- erate 10sses in comparison with the close of the previous week. ‘The bond market was fairly active, Reading especially being act- ive. and prices averaged botter. The uggre- gato sales for the week were 1, shares, Considerable interest was munifested in tho drato-markets during the week just closed. Rather more steadiness prevailed as a rule, and prices have favored sellers to some e tent. Tho shipping demand for all cere: was quite brisk, and, ns _freights have re- ceded slightly, shippers were encouraged to mamntain the active_movement of the past two weeks. The September report of the department of agriculture reducea the con- dition of crops generally and indicated lighter yields than herctofore anticipated. ‘This was regarded as a strengthening fea- wre, Adv abroad indicated no particuiar change in that quarter and reports eI crops are somewhat conflictin Recoipts of grainat interior stations have been fair, ratber mci sing. Arrivals of grain at lake ports have been quite free, but there has beeu very little accumulation, The visible supply was somewhat disappoint 1ng, showing radical changes for this season of the year. Speculative trading was rather more active during the week, wheat recovering to some extent from the dulluess of the week previous, while corn and outs met with considerable favor, ratber more money going to the interior, which would indicate that the movement of facm products will be maintained. Farmers, how- ever, ure busy in some sections with their fall plowing, and this may check the move- ment of small grain stightly. Receivers hg experienced no difficulty in'disposing of their consiguments, and prices are generally satis- factory. Provisions met with considerable specula- tive favor and tradicg was quite brisk, par- ticularly in mess pork and short rib sides. Prices ruled with considerable irregularity, with trading somewhat unsatisfactory. The shipping trade was mod ate. Sbeds exbibited considerable activity, tim- othy ruling weak and flax higher. Receipts of live stock were liberal, with littlo change to note in prices. Packing of the west for the week shows a further en- largement and the aggregate is fully equal to that of the total of the past season.

Business at first was fair tor the day, with mail orders indicating steady, active trade at interior points.

Among the sutumn cloaks recently dis- played is a long one of & rich golden shade of terracotua, figured with black, the figures woven to represent a fine black braiding. Some of the new French yisiting-dresse or carriage-gowns, as they are called, out being trained, are what is called demi- long, just made to touch the floor slightly at the back, Roso-colored and mignonette-green dgesses of Venetian castmere, bordered with gold and silver galloons, are made with double skirts, both equally long, the upper one open up the left side of the waist.

A vretty and becoming modification of that old prime favorite, the English walking- hat, has appeared, less narrow on the brim front, and not rolled so closely to the crown on the sides, making it more than ever bo- coming to_slender-faced women, to whom the shape, like the KFrench turbav, is always a boon, The now felt bonnets are boautifully soft and fine, and dved in all the autumn shades, both dark, pale, and neutral, to match street costumes,” Somo are in princosse shape, othiers with small coronets, or in the flat style of the now English capote, which roveals ‘all of the waved or fluffy mass of hair over the forehead .

In a little hosteiry at Jenkintown, whose walls are bedecked with queer old-fashioned sporting pictures, there is one illustration that will recall to old patrons of all sorts of diversionsa cur- ious feature of bygone days when many things went that wouldn't go now, sa the Philadelphia Press. Itis a fair spirited sketch of the famous fighting hog Patsey, or somesuch nume. There was not much fat on Patsey, but he had quick legs and ugly teeth, and his owners would fight lim against any dog in the country at $100. No dog ever got Patsey by tho ear and held on any great length of time, and the pig had a long record of dogs killed in thering; all kinds of canines they we too. Patsey. sc far as the sporting innkeeper at Jenkintown can tell, is the only hog with this kind of talent that ever lived. Wales and His Varicose Vein. The Pridce of Wales has been suffer ing from his leg since he went to Cowes says the London World. The vein which has never resumed iis norms ince ha had typhoid fever, swells groeat pain from time to time; and it has lately been very troublesome, waking the leg an enormous size and preventing the prince from riding or walking much. Indeed, with a varicose vein of such long staeding and size as the one from which the prince is suf- fering, he ought to lic up some weeks, and not use the at all. The doctors. of know such treatment is impossi- s'the prince, having a very ool appetite, requires a certain amount of ¥ se.
