WEATHER is OUT OF tune
NOT THE SORT NEEDED BY FALL
AND WINTER GOODS.
Regular Friday Trade Rebufed Stag
nation to a Degree-Fine Pros
poets for Sugar Dealers.

Rather quiet" was the common remark
among the wholesale merchants yesterday.
Summer weather is hardly the kind needed
to stimulate fall and winter trade. ON
Commission row, however, it being Friday,
there was activity, retail merchants stock
ing UP for Saturdays business and in the
after part of the day the sidewalks OF the
commission houses were bare. Receipts
of Irish and sweet potatoes are large.
Irish potatoes, Michigan growth, are com
ing here daily by the carload and a break
in the market is in evidence within the
next few days. Onions and cabbage are
in fair supply and prices are well held
Grapes and peaches are still plentiful. Few
watermelons and canteloupes are offered
and few wanted. The lemon market is
firmer.
Hog products continue fast movers in a
domestic way, while export business IS
quiet. Top grades OF butter are very firm
at best quotations. Eggs are steady at
prices quoted. Cheese is firm and sales are
toes. but corn. peas and beans are very
firm, and the packers are not anxious TO
sell at present prices. wholesale grocers
had a good day. Sugar is going out rapidly
with no lessening in demand and refincrs
expect the trade during the fall and winter
will be active, as confectloners the next
three months will be large consumers. The
holiday trade will set in when the frlit
preserving season is over. Coffee is quiet
but steady in price.

the prices that prevailed early IN the week.
Oats also advaneed cent, and the market
closed strong at prices quoted. Offerings
on the wagon market were more liberal
