THE OMAHA DAILY BEE SUNDAY. NOVEMBER 26, 1893-TWENTY PAGES. CONDITION OF ONAHA'S TRADE Looal Conditions Show Little Change During the Past Weok, COLLECTIONS ARE STILL FAIRLY GOOD dobbors In Certain Lines Report a Satisfac- tory Trade, While in Other Lines it Is Admitted that Trade is Not What 1t Ought to Be. As was noted a week ago the volume of business in a jobbing way appears to have settled down ton steady thing, and such changes as occur from day to day are not of A very marked character. More than that, the general opinion appears 1o be that there 18 not likely to be any very great change 1n the condition of the jobblug trade for some little tima to dome. It is anticipated of course that there will be a decided gain in the retail trade as the holfday season ap- proaches. This improvement is already seen in the retail trade of the city, while the jobbing business in all seasonable linos is better than it was at the commencement of the month, Jobbers, as a rule, roport goods of a sea- sonable character in very fair aemand, and some even go 8o far as to claim that their business is very satisfaotory since the weather turned colder. In certain other lines, which are not so much affected by cold weather, the reports are not so favor- ablo, trade not being up to what it was a year ago at this time. Taking the condition of the whole country into consideration, business is perhaps as good us could well be expec One thing appears to be pretty ‘well established by the reports received, and that is that the jobbing business of Omaha is in better condition than that of most other vzestorn cities. While the clearings of the past week were not quite up to the point reached the bre. vious week, they show o decrease of only 4.8 per cent, as compared with the corre- spouding week of last year., The cities the south of Omaha, that is, Kan: St. Joseph and St. Louis, are making b showing in the matter of clearings than Omaha. As compared with the north- ern cities Omaha is still way in the lead. Minneapolis shows a falling off in the clear- ings, as compared with last year, of 18 per cent; St. Poul, 18 per cent; Milwauiee, 30 per cent; Sioux City, 27 ver cent. The de- crease for the whole country is 13 per cent, showing that Omaha is considerably better off than the gencral average of cities, in this respect at least, Business men who are prone to study figures and speculate as to their meaning and general bearing on trade are trying to determine just now what inferences can be drawn from the completed statement of the «comptroller of the United Siates as to the condition of the national banks, which has come to hand during tne past few days. The most striking feature of this report and the one that may cause some surprise is the fact that the banks instead of gaining in deposits after August, when the bank failures ceased, continued to show a decrease, as was brought out by the reports of October 8. In the following abbre ed statement the last three returns of the comptroller, showing the condition of the banks in the more important items on the 4th of May, the 12th of July and the 3d of October, are com- rnrcd.hhu figures given representing mil- fons,_There is added a statement of the decreuse or increase for the different periods intervening between the statements, , and as the withdrawals from banks of the reserve cities were in character quite differ- ent from those which occurred at other oints, a separate statement is added show- ng the amounts reported by all banks out- ‘side the reserve cil at tho different periods and also their aggregate of changes: ~Dearense Mayd. July12. Oct.s.” July 141 1570 194 Outside reserve citios: 1,196 1108 a8 905 803 102 ey 55 3 erd 38 " *Increase. From this statement it will appear, first, that tho decrease in louns during tho first period was smaller by about $53,000,000 than the decrease in deposits, but during the second period the decrease in loans was larger by about $71,000,000 vhan the decreaso in deposits. This naturally reflects the ability of tho banks, after the worst of the panic had subsided, to cause liquidation of a part, of their loans, and thus to recuperate their reserves, and accordingly 1t appears that during the latter period the banks were able to add $31,000,000 gold and $10,000,000 legal tenders to their cash re- serves, in all $50,000,000, in piace of the $170,000,000 loans retired. But it will also be seen that the banks outside the re- serve ciues retired much more than half the loans thus liquidated, namely $100,000,- 000, while they added only $4.000,000 to their atock of gold as legal tenders. It alsoap- fcul‘n that it was from these banks that by ar the greater partof the withdrawal of de- posits occurred during tho second period, namely $85,000,000 out of $105,000,000 from all the banks, Inconsequence the banks outside tho reserve cities must be considered to have effected the liquidation in large medasure for the satisfaction of depositors, ‘without adding wmaterially to their availabla reserves. The same feature appears in both cases, however, that the decrease in loans ‘was smaller during the firsy period than in deposits, but larger in the second period. AS DUN SEES IT. Buburban Prosperity Urban Strength—Oriti- cism for the Bank “Omaha people ao not fully appreciate the Importance of South Omaha to the business interests and prosperity of their city,” said Mr. W. H. Roberson, R. G. Dun & Co.’s local manager, when asked for his usual weokly reviow of trade, “The great stock yards and packing indus- tries of Omaha's principal suburb have been the very backbone of the city's development during the seven years last past. Indeed, without the employment and trafiic of South Omaha, I do not sce how Omaha proper could have maintained herself during these trying years. It would be a good idea for old and new ciuzens to drov down to the eking city about once .every three months Ffl to receive ghe inspiration of hopeand he nerve stonic incident to actual contact with genuine business encrgy. ‘And this reminds one that ever sinco I have been in Omuha the forward movement, the steady growth and the abiding pros- Imrl:{ of this metropolis have come very argely from the energy developed in two priucipals suburb Bouth Omaha and East Omaha. ‘While there has been & degree of somnolence 1n the mother city, these two Justy children of her much traduced boom have been thoroughly awake, agressively active und have done ‘u ereat deal toward kosd'llmc the cld lady in health and comfort. *: undee Place, on the west, had kept up ts original pace and Florence, on the north, had been equal to the hopes of its owners, there is no forecasting what growth the city Propar might have enjoyed even in dull imes, *Times are not improvin, 18 not as good as it should be. Deposits in the banks are not E:nwlng. Banks are not disposed to invite borrowers and the fact is we are still in what a society editor might the ‘doldrums of business,’ with only opo bracing us up for the winter. *A very bright business man discussing he situation criticises tho banks for part of he trouble. He calls attention to the more mru rules adopted driving ““JY busi- m b towns when city banks should have ‘dl»(dfi deposits lm‘lcounlnclrllmfiy nhwmb tb couutry bankers. ‘also the embargo should be raised checks aud especially on country on those '.G?buk- hnur::: ‘ofiu an accoun! bank in w) urrh.l:: : he small bal 1t almost 13 awi umfl%u;mfummofi W house that 3 ver ocent S other her much and trade 0a his average daily bal- Boston banks take all New England checks from their customers at par and credit them as cash on the day deposited. He also points to a circular from one of the oldest banks in Moston in which business is soiicited in the following seductive terms: “Do you find your bank makes a number of littlo charges against you—for check book, for collection of out-of-town, western and_ southern notes, checks and drafts; premium for currency or pay roll, ete? They are small items, but they count up. In these matters the facilities of the national bank are unexcelled and A sav- ing i made to its depositors of these amount, Boston ought to do conservative banking and this bank is more than half a century old I seem to have fallen in with bank crities this week for still another pusiness man said he found Omaha drafts the excention now where they used to be the rule. Remittances to his house come in New York, Chi- cago, St. Louls and even Sioux City' exchange rather than Omaha. He thinks tha Omaha bankers have been shortsighted in establishing stringent and picayunish regulations and shutting off legitimate solicitation in the i est of rival towns. me way the trade will not quit talk- ing about the clearing house rules and the fact is the bankers themselves keep up the discussion. The older members of the asso- clation say they have always done too much for nothing and u change can just as well be made now as any time. They vigorously defend their course, both at present and during tho panic. They point to Omaha's bank record for thirty years as the best evi- denco that her bankers understand their business.” NEBRASKA'S CASH. Complaint About Withdrawals from Omahn Banks Without Reason, Omaha bankers have been commenting con- siderably of late upon the recent witndrawal from the national banks of the city of state funds, It is claimed by them that Omaha has not had a fair proportion of the state's money, and now the amount of state funds on deposit here §s less than at any time previous, One hanker says it does probably not exceed 250,000, This sudden taking of the funds in ques- tlon from Omaha and South Omgha has, it is sald, worked ruinous inconvenience to one or two banks, and was done ut A time, too, when there wis no good cause for It, becanse the state treasury had just been replenishod Dy the remittance of taxes from tho several counties, The action is regarded as only a part of the discrimination which, some of the bankers say, has been habitially prac- ticed by the autliorities ngainst the bankin institutions of Douglas county and in_favor of those of Lincoln, Lancaster county. It is claimed that the' Omaba banks, being more heavily capitalized and -having 'more credit than any other like concerns in the state, are entitled to greater consideration at the hands of the state treasurer and other officlals hav- ing some authority In the management of the stute's finances. In speaking about tho order. recontly tssued by,the Treasury department providing thiat after November 27 the charges for the traus fon of natfonal bank notes to the treas- of tho United States for redomption bo paid by the party making the remittance, the bankers say that it is of no important ‘significance. It~ will amount only a triflo with any ono bank, though it will e it saving of some mugnitude to the govern- ment. It will probably have a tendency to slightly restrict tho redemption of national bunk motes, as banks will not hereafter fo ward for redemption any notes not mutilat to such an extent as to make their redemption an absoluto necessit . arket.

CORN WAS DULL WITH LITTLE DOING Both Offerings and Demnnd Fight and Fluctuations for May Were Con- fined to ® One.Foutth Cent Limit. Cricaco, Nov. 25.—Wheat closed from S¢e to 3¢ higher today on good buying, strong cebles, light northwestern receipts and better export clearances. Corn and oats and provisions were dull and without any noticeable change in prices. Wheat, opened at yesterday's closing fig- ures. Northwestern was again lighter, convincing the bulls thav they wero right in their surmise that receipts would continue to decrease until they reach a very small daily total, and prices from the start were firm. Charley Smith and Pardridge made liberal offerings, and at one time May went lgc below the open- mg, but the tendency was upward throughout the day. Cables came in strong and export clearances from both coasts were about 120,- 000 bu. larger than the preceding week. The Now York contingent bought frecly, using most of the private - wire houses of Brosseau. Ryan and Rums Chandler also had liberal buying orders. The price continued to advance until May reached 60%{c and Dacember 621c, and the close of both w but 3e from the top. May opened at 631¢e, went up g, lost ifc. ad- vanced 1 a5 and gained 1{c 1o tho close at 691, Corn was dull with both offerings and de- mand hight. The fluctuations for May were confined to a limit of i{c and both opening and closing figures were the same as yester- day's close. May opened 59%c, sold up lgc, advanced 1;c, and reacted ;¢ to tho close, where it opened. 1n the oats market buyers were few, offer- ings scarce, and values confined to, & range of ige. May began lg¢ below yosterday’s close, 805¢e, sold up 1% 1o the close, where it did yesterday at 303{c. Provisions were quiet, but firm. The market was sustained by the strength in wheat and corn. Compared with lust night nuary pork is 2i¢c higher, January lard, higher and January ribs 21gc higher.

Spoculation Less Active In Scouritles for n Y While Yesterday. New Yonk, Nov. 25, —There was quite active speculation on the Stock exchange during the two hours of business today. In the early dealingsa very firm tone revailed. Sugar was about the only week share on the list. The buying was wmainly local, for Lon- don was out of the market, prices being about on a parity in thearbitrage specialties, but the purchasing movement was quite steady und under its influence the active list moved up % to 81§ per cent, About 11 olclock the market became heavy, largely on realizing sales and from then until the close the speculation was feverish and the ten- dency of prices was reactiona nd the final dealings were made at a decline of 14 percent in General Electric, 1 per cent in New Jersey Central and 1@ 5 per cent in the rest of the general ist. Sugar was weak and was vressed for saloon the uncertainty regarding the pro- posed tariff, Opening at a_decline of 1 per cent, the shares fell off 3 per cent additional, closing at o recovery of o per cent. In- siders aro reported to have bought the stock on the decline. .The general market at the closo was weak, but a majority of the list was above yesterday's final figures. ‘The changes in the list on the transactions of the week so far as concerns the rallway stocks are generally toward higher prices, the principal advances being: Delaware & Hudson. 5% per cent; Delaware, Lacka- wanna & Western, 23 per_cent; New Jer- sey Central, 83¢ per cent; Reading, 11 per cent; St. Paul & Omaha preferved, b per cent; St. Paul & Omaha common, 27§ per cent; St. Paul, 2% per cent; St. Paul pre- ferred, 13{ per cent; Northwest, 5 per cent; 'Nortwest preferred, 1 per cent; Burlington & Quincy, 2 per cent:; Rock fsland, 8% per cent; Lake Shore, 23¢ per cent; Michigan Central, 81 per cent; New York Central, 1l per cent; Can- ada Soutbern, 2 per cent: Kansas & Texas preferred, 31 per cent; krie preferred 3l¢ per cent; common, 1'¢ per cent; Western Union, 8% per cont; Manhattan, 23" per cent; illinois Central and Pullman, 3 per cent; Minneapolis & St. Louis preferred, 23{ per cent; Pittsburg & Western preferved, 217 per cent; Itubber preferred, 3 per cent; Tobacco, 514 percent; Lead preferred, 17¢ per cent; Cordage preferred,1'; per cent, and Chicago Gas, 17 per cen Among the shares which are lower than at the close on last Saturday are: Edison Electric, 23{ per cent; Rio Grande Western, b ver cent; Lehigh & Wilkesbarre, per cent; Cordage, 2 per cent; Sugar and Cotton Oit preferred, 1 percent; ISvansyille & Terre Haute, 1 per cent. Distilling closed at the same price as on the week before, The Post says: There was considerable selling to take brofits on the market today and ‘without noteworthy exceptions, The marked feature of the market was the continuous selling, in the face, moreover, of another heavy break in Sugar. Generally the day’s market indicated thav prices had reached the normal high level. The bears are protty ssure at all events 10 show acuivity next week. Such news as there was today helped along the upward move- ment. The report of the week's gain in ex- poris showea a larger outward wheat movement than at any time within fourteen and it is four weeks since corn ex- ports have reached their present volume, This may explain the movement. Asto the bank statement, that showed again & vast increase in the heaping of idle cash, The surplus now exceeds $70,000,000.

Somae- SATURDAY, Nov. 25, Roceipts of both cattle and sheep have held up well the past weok, but there has been a sharp falling off in supplies of hogs. The figures are as follows Cattle. 22,452 Tlogs. Shoep Rocelpts this woek 18,120 7,210 Recoipts Inst week....... 24,642 24,879 2,601 Samo week last year.... 16,019 B2 6,807 The recent monotonous steadiness of the cattle market has been broken this week, but in a manner not at all satisfactory to cattlo owners. Owing to the great amount of game, poultry and oystors in the mar- iets at present, the demand for dressed beef has been somewhat diminished, and as a result beef on the hoof has had to sell lower. The first to feol the effect of tho decreased demand were the half-fat and short-fed native cattlo, and these 1n turn dragged the better grades down with them. During the first four days of the week values declined from 25c to 40¢, the good matured cattle suffering tho least. On Friday and 8fiturday, with limited receipts, there was a slight reaction, but no pact of tho decline was regained. Comparatively few of the cattle now coming forward are westerns, and desirable beef grades have not shown much change, as they are gener- ally much preferred to thr ordinary run of half-fat natives, The demand has como very largely from local houses, but Chicago butchers aroe still taking a few now and yhen to help out theirsupply at Chicago. Receipts at that place are falling short of last year, while so far this month compared with last November thers has been au in- crease here of nearly 17,000 cattle, and the eleven months’ increase will nov fall far short of 100,600 head. Laight Supply of Fresh Stoclc. The trade today was peculiar. In vhe first place the fresh supply was the lightest in over three months or sinco Au 18, when only 1,046 cattle were received. There was a moderate demand and _while the faw to good beef cattle sold freely at fully steady prices the market was slow and dull on the best grades and dull and slow on the common stuff, fair to pretty good natives sold where from §3.25 to #4 35, with_one very good bunch of steers at $4.i5, and inferior stuft down to A few small bunches of western raugers went at from §3.10 to $3,40. There seemed to be a very fair undertone to the trade but under the present conditions it will take continued limited supplies tosus- tain values, The cow market suffered more than the attle market. Supplies have been com- ivelv liberal all week and wiile there y good inquiry from outsiders the local demand has been slack ana prices went off 40c to 50c on all grades. Fridayand today there was a little more firmness to the trade, but 1t was due entirely to the reduced numbers on sale. Some very choice cornfed heifers sold today at $3.00, but aside from these, fair to good cows sold largely at from 81.00 to $2.40, while common and canning grades wentat from §1:10 up to §1.85. Good veal calves have ruled firm all week, and sold today at from $4 to . Common large stock and yearlings have been_in indifferent demand and lower at from $1.75 to $3. The market for rough stock was not very brisk and prices were not moro than steady at the recent decline. poorto choice bulls, oxen and stags selling at from $1.40 to $3. In the stocker and feeder trade the ten- dency toward higher prices was checked by the depression in fat cattle values. Low prices brought the buy however, and the increased demand resulted in clean- ing up the greater portion of the abnormally large stocks in traders’ hands. Prices have improved 15c to 25 on the vetter grades, but common light stock cattle are selling in- differently and at unsatisfactory prices. Good to choice feeders aro quoted at_from $2.80 to $3.00; faw to good at from §2.50 to $2.50, witn inforior to fair grades at from $2 10 §2.40. Represontative Sales, DRESSED BERF.

No one looked for big receipts before the middle of Doceniber at the closest, but hors wore too high the way provisions were selling, and _a slight bulge in receipts lod packers to think that the big run had com- menced and they began hammering prices. Thay pounded out a 600 decline 1ast week. but with present light supplies the tables were turned and prices went back a fow notches, and unless re- coipts increase sharply thoy are liabld to advance a fewr notches further before Jan- uary 1, although in the very nature of the oase lower prices soon are inevitable. The shipping demand has been very light, as is usually the case at this season of the yoar, when eastern packers can get what hogs they want cheaper nearer home. The fresh meat demand, however, is improving and light and butcher weight hogs have gond back to @ promium over tho heavy weights. Went Up a Nickel, The market today was active and on an averago a nickel higher all around. Some ot the good light ana butcher grades showed more advance than this on account of the domand from fresh meat men and. shippers, while some of tho heavy hogs sold littls, it any, higher than Friday. The ranzeof prices was widor than it has been Iately, running from $5.25 for rough packers up to &5.47% for choico light stuff. The big bulk of the hogs, hawever, sold it #.3) and $.40, and the moager offerings soon changed hands, although the close was weak. Iriday the hogs sold mostly at $.50 and $5.3 and on last Saturday $.20 to #.25 bought the bulk of tho hogs. - Represcntative sales PIGS AND ROUGH. 200 5 00 4 110 Shoep Trade Brisk, ~Receipts of sheep have increased overywhero and there has been a corre- sponding docline in values.
