AL " unuIUKRIS AVENUE Fish Dealers Report Scarci- ty-Grain Men Doing Good Business

Yesterday being the last of the month business with the wholesalers on Morris avenue was rather dull, and there were no changes in quotations. The supply was ample, the demand light and a fair trade is anticipated today.
 The fish dealers reported that they were all sold out early yesterday morning, and the supply of fish is not expected to be replenished for at least two days. The brisk demand for fish has sent the price higher, but none is to be had at any price. Dry salt meats held steady and enjoyed good business. The supply of poultry is still scarce, but as the demand has fallen off it does not affect the quo- tations Creamery products and eggs had a fairly good trade at firm prices. No changes are expected. The produce men, owing to the last of the month. suffered a poor day, but are hopeful for today Contrary to the prevailing quietness the grain dealers opened the week with a brisk trade at firm prices, and will likely hold to that condition all week. Tester days wholesale quotations follow:

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, September 30.-Cotton futures opened steady at decline of 1 to } points Cables were not quite within expectations and the weather map failed to show the cold weather that was ex- pected over Sunday. Late last week E buyers were sellers around the opening and their offerings held the market down. Little life was displayed and no grea amount of selling power was in evidence. Both sides were plainly waiting on the pending bureau reports. With the end of the first half hour of business prices were points under Saturdays close.
 There was a spurt of buying around tho middle of the session on a forecast of more rain in the eastern half of the belt and on slender offerings prices were put l to points over Saturdays closing level Later more pressure was applied and prices fell. No support came from the bull side. The heavy receipts at Texas points and very large estimates Of tho ginning to date caused scalpers to take the short side for a turn. Trading months at noon were to points under Sutur- days figures.
 The market in the late session was dull. Half an hour before the close prices were 5I to 19 points under Satur- days final prices.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, September 30.--(Special.)- )-- Liverpool was unexpectedly better than due and maintained its strength until the close of that market After that our market, which had recovered the open. ing decline. began to feel the weight of heavy selling by brokers who usually represent the uptown traders and the spot houses
 This selling continued to the close and was based on the belief that the bureau and ginners report would both be bcarsl when published on Wednesday, and thai when this market declines that the south. ern markets would ease under the pres sure of the receipts.
 Tonight the feeling is very bearisli tn, spinners feel certain that the long pre- dicted decline has just commenced anc that they will be able to but at muct lower prices all of which, however, will be governed by the weather
 Liverpool is due to come about 10 point: lower in the morning

CALL LOANS REACH
 HIGHEST RATE YET
Sudden Advance to 7i, Per Cent-Heavy Gold En-
 agreements Abroad

New York, September So.--F'urther heavy gold engagements abroad and an other sudden advance in call loans to 7is per cent, the highest rate of the year, were the conflicting figures around which >oday's active and at time strong stock market revolved. The gold was obtained in London, in competition with German and other continental banking interests and the success of our bids followed an other decline here in exchange.
 The higher rate for call money was a natural outcome of the preparations now being made by banks at all important home centers to finance the heavy octc- Der interest and dividend disbursements which probably will be much larger than last years payments. Then. too. the rela- lively small excess reserves furnished an other reason for caution.
 Stocks were distinctly regular at the opening, a condition resulting largely from the lower range of prices for Americans in London. The market followed it's home operations with heavy sales here in the first hour unloading large amounts of United States Steel, Amalgamated Cop per and Reading.
 The market wavered under this on- slaught, but went to new level, the high est of the year. at midday, under leader ship of Steel. That stock came out in enormous blocks which seemed to be free ly absorbed with other reports issued at advance In the final hour, however when money made it's record quotation beayx selling set in and nriees erl1nblee until little was left of the rise In fact many stocks weakened to much below last weeks closing level, and the entire list resumed it's irregular trend growing more heavy toward the close.
 All the foreign exchanges were adverse ly affected by the Balkan. The local bond market was firm, with renewed demand for special issues. Total sales, par value amounted to g, 450,000 United States gov ernment bonds unchanged on call.
