MONEY ABUNDANT, COLLECTIONS GOOD Business so Far Not the Three Great Striles—Omaha D Enjoying a Splendid Trado~Clenr- ing House Stateme ously Affected by New Yok, Aug. 19.—R, G. Dun & Co's. Weekly Reviow of Trade says: Late ad- vicos from the west promise rather better crops of iwheat and corn, and. cotton pros- pects are a little botter. though neithier yield will approach that of last vear. With abundant supplies brought over the outlook is 50 20od that business distinotly improves and the prospect for fall trade is everywhere consiaered botter. The great strikes in New York, Pennsylvania and Tennessee, which call into service troops in thres great states, appear to have scarcely an appraciable effect upon business as yot, and although the in- terraption of trafiic is threatencJ on many important raflroads, stocks aro generally steudy or strong, closing but a smali feaction lower than @ week ago. More wold has gone abroad, but monoey is abundant and ensy and collections 1 almost all quarters are more ausfactory than asnal. Wheat has been weaker and doclined 37 | | ing house roturns for tho week ending Au- cents, with western receints exceeding 5,200,- 000 bushels in_four days, while Atlautic ex- ‘borts were 1,500,000 bushels and sales nero ouly 6,000,000 bushels. Raports of harvest- ing in spring wheat regions are more encouraging. Corn has advanced 1 cent on salos of only 3,000,000 bushels hero, mainly because of possible interruption of trafc, for western reports are definitely more promis- ing, espocially as to IKansas ana Illinois, Oats have declined only a quarter, but lard is ashade stronger.

In cotton a further aecline of a sixteenth has occurred, and sales have been 598,000 bales, the actual movement at this season veing insignificant, while crop prospect with the heavy stucks on hand, tend to de- ress prices, Last week the quantity which as come into sight for the crop year rose above 9,000,000 bales and the stocks of Awer- ican abroad are over 2,300,000 bales. Speculation in tir. has made little change and buyers of copper ure So slow that 1105 cents 15 quoted, while lead is u shade lower. Iron mills at Pittsburg will soon resu-ue, but at present shipments of coke are the smallest for some time and business in win- dow glass 1s not active. At Cincinnati trade is quiet, but prospects fine and withdrawals of whisky are unusually heavy. Fair activity is seeu at Cloveland with a heavy trade and rolled iron products very active and tirm, Geuneral trade at Chicago 1s better than in auy year and colloctions better also. Receipts of barley for the week fall below last year’s, of dressed beef a third and of corn a fifih, but increase appears in cured meats, cheess and lard, a third in cattio and wool aud one-half in nogs, hides and flour. At Milwaukée collections areslow, farmers being busy, but they are shightly 1n excess of last vear. St. Paul reports a slight increase in busi- nessand the harvest resulung i a good | yield. At Minneapolis the trade is good; the crop about average and the lumber business 1s Iarge, withs au edvance of 5 cents in prices. Business at St. Louis is generally satis- factor and at Kansas City good with large receipts of cattle, hogs and wheat. Omaha Deaters Rushed with Business. At Omaha dealers in ary goods and grocer- ies are rushed and money is in improved de- mand. Improvement is seen with brighter pros- pects at Little Rock and Nashville, and while trade is quict at New Orleans, sugar is strong and active, but receipts of rico are light, the crop having been damaged by rains. Western iron mills have not fully resumed, but the present demand for bar, blates, sheets and structural iron is very active and mills are full of orders. Pig is unchanged, but a sale of gray forge, equal to $7.84 at Birmingham, is recorded. Cottons are 1o great cemand and firm, though the weather had checked the week’s sales. ‘I'ne business failures occurring through- out the country during the last seven days were 172; for the corresponding week of last year the figures were 199, WHAT BRADSTREETS SAYS, Labor Disturbances Attracting Attentlon { in New York Markets, New York, Aug. 19.—Bradstreots says of the New York stock market: Labor dis- turbances assumed for a time & commanding position in the speculative share market of the present week. Tho troubles at Buffalo, icvolving the interruption of trafiic upon the trunk lines at that importaut center and a threatened stoppage of business of great cor- poration$, naturally tended to create hesita- tion and uncertainty in speculative interests These influonces were more or less offective duricg the entire weel, so far as the railway share list is concerned. Crop news was on the whole favorablo, but the granger roads shared with the trunk lines in their speculative uncertainty and the whole interest of the market centered in the industrial group. In the latter connec- tion it need only pe saia that the bullish wanipulators continued toshow theiractivity and skill with little interruption. Sugar, cordage, lead and their compauions have advanced steadily, tho fir named stock comvletely fultilling the predlction that it would cross 110, Successful as the movement has been, it continues 1o croato a feeling that this must necessarily result in a reaction, even if it does not turn out that the insiders have un- louded upon the street during the advance, Notwithstanding such npprehensions the close of the week linds the market under tne influonce of the improvement In industrial shares 1o an extent which nuliifios the infiu- ence of othor uufavorable factors in the pen- eral speculative situation, It may be said that Wall strost has dis- covered the policy of bearish operatio based upon labor disturbances, Disquietit as the latter are, their offects are less se. vere than might be expected and though & section of the room traders were ready to trn the Buffalo disturbances and the military assistance to their own adval their suc save in & brief in. terval on Weanesday last, was but slig The fact thav tho decline of silver was apparontly arrested early in the week aud that a firaier feeling manifested in the market was not without influence.

There are but few pevple in Omaha who have ever witnessed the ascension of a genu- ine balloon. This is principally owing to the fact that men who desiro to risk their lives up in a balloon, sailing 'rouna the stars, aro not numerous. Thero 1s one man, however, who is perfectly willing to take his life in tis hands and start on a trip toward the un- known regions reaching up into space. That man is Prof. Belden, the noted navigator of the air. He is in the city aud has completed arrangements to give the people a free show on Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Tne place from which tho voyage to the clouds will start is at I'wenty-fourth streou and the Belt Lino tracks, reached by both the Sherman avonue aud the Twenty-fourth street motor lines The balloon which Prof. Belden uses is a mouster, standing sixty feot high, and is the one n which he has made nearly 100 trips to tho clouds during the past five years.
