The Local Trade Reported as Rather A VERY HEAVY GAIN IN BANK CLEARINGS The Jobbing Trade concel THE CONDITION OF TRADE Dull irowing Rap- fdiy—1t Now Surpasses Anything Ever Before Experienced in the i tory of the City. So far as the jobbing trale of Omaha is | »d there have been no new features developed during the past week. The volume of business continues largn for the season of the year and even tho hot weather does not appear to affect it, Lhis Is especially true in such lines as dry goods, boots and shoes, groceries and haraware T say that the jobbing trade of Omaba is luree for the seasc however, does not fully explain the true coudition. [t might convey & more correct idea to say that business in A jobbing way, during the past six weeks, was never before equalled at this season in Omuba Every jobt the totals of s r is reporting heavy gaips in < a8 compared with previous wyears, A boot and shoe jobber reports that his June sales were £25,000 in excess of the sales for the correspondink period last year. Omubn's Jobbing territory has becn lurge increased during the pe-t year, and tnat fact, topether with the izprovea conditions pre: valling in the we/t owing to good crops, is the real cause of the activity prevailing in Johbing circies. Omaba is rapidly gaining in | fmportarice as & jobbing pownt, und every tning would scem to indicate still further growth in that direction. The Retail Trade of Omaha 18 not very active, in fact tnis is the dull scason when little could be expected A good many prople are abseut from the ity taking their sumer outings und are speadi their money at distaut rosorts. The lurge ary goods houses, which depend largely upon the trade of the weaithy und fashionavle, feel the absence of their best customers in decreased sales, People as a rule tave already purchascd ir summer outfits of all kinds and trading in Juiy is usually Limited to the necessitios of life. The grocery trade, especially in the cnse of the smaller doaler, is none too good. There does not appear to be enough: men steadily employed at good wages L2 put auy life 1uto the trade. Produ and Froits, The market has been devoid of any special features concerning produce during the pust week. Butter and eggs have soid at aimost steudy prices, but poultry has firmed up someiwhat. In fruits the berry season is drawing to a close and stipurents, in view of the extremely hot weather, are risky. Califoruia fruits havo not been very plenty during the week, but from this time ou it is likely that consumers of fruit wiil kave to depeaa largely upon Califoruia for their sup- Dlies. The Clearings. The bank cleariugs of Omaha have been very sati-factory during the past week. indi cating, as they do, great business activity Compared withi the corresponding week last year there was & guin umounting o 6.3 ver must come largely from the ufucturing business owing will show the clearings ch day of the woek under review Monda e Tuoadiy nesduy Tuursday.... Friduy incr 1se for T A b e PR Real Estate Market, While no.iarge sales have been reported there was considerable activity in real estate circles, and a good many small cash transac- tions were racorded. Tuere appears to be more confidence among home seekers in gen- eral, and peoplo who have been hoarding money in the savings banks for the past two or three years are now bringing it out and anvestng it 1o tomes. While these transac tions do not make much of a show in the way of real estate transactions, they indicate o very heaitby state of the markes The real estate transfers for the week end ing Friday night were as follows Juiy 11 5 e 86,011,61L54 01 00 6 00 Juiy 15 Total. SRaRh T . 1 8.04.802 40 This is not up to the daily average for June. The building permits have not been #s lurge as man> would ilks to see thein, but they indicate that there is some sctivity in building circies, thcupeh limited mostly to the ereoticn of cheap awelliugs. The following will sbow the total permits itsuecd on each day of the week under re- Tulyo .:u‘\ 1 Jnyis Juin Julyl Total serasass West 40,35 o Investinents, Easte n cuvitalists are fully aware of the general provriety prevailing in the west and western securilics are in better fuvor than a The Unitea States Investor says that the WeSLerl MOFLRARE DUSILESS RPDCATS every where to be rapidiy reacuiug a safe and healthy basis, Values throughout the west are down to a figure basea on the actual in come of the property, and nobody is stimu- lated to borrow in advauce of his actual necessities.

AS DUN SEES T, Business In All L) % Goo it s Rushing, W. H. Roberson, manager of R. G. Dun & Co.'s mercantile ageucy, speaking of local business, says : ‘The week ib Omaha has been devoid of spocial wterest. Jobbing houses have gen- erally enjoyed » good trade. In some lines b Bouses are not uble to keep up with their orders, noticeably so iu groceries, Il.iauors, Jeatber and lumber are cxceptions, however.
