WAS ACTIVE DAY ON
MORRIS AVENUE
General Impression Is That
Lower Prices Will Soon
Prevail

The Morris avenue wholesalers had an
other active trading day, with generally
firm prices and plentiful stock OF com
modities yesterday. The increase in trade
is here to stay, according to the dealers,
and will get better as cooler weather
sets in Owing to the extraordinary large
crops throughout the country it is ex-
pected that prices In all commodities will
be affected. The general impression is
that prices will suffer reductions IN the
near future.
Pork loins advanced to 17Mc per pound
yesterday. with the Wholesale dry salt
meat dealers every day it is the same
story, slight advance in the price of
meats. Trading with the meat dealers
was very quiet and the supply adequate
for, present needs.
The grain merchants are waxing wroth
over the delay of the railroads In their
shipments of oats, for the stock of oats
on the avenue is very light, and the mer-
chants have a batch of orders to fill
Great Inconvenience and loss of time Is
being caused by the delay of the rail-
roads In handling the oat shipments" said
w. II. Maxim yesterday, and that ex-
presses the sentiment of the other grain
dealers.
Creamery products enjoyed a steady
trade with firm prices. Poultry and eggs
showed no change In their brisk trade or
steady prices. Fish merchants mark an
advance of 11zc on red snapper owing
to light catches on the coast. Trade was
fair and is expected to be better today.
Produce dealers had no changes In prices
or to the steady trade initiated at the
beginning of the week. The supply Ia
abundant on all fruits with the excep
ton of peaches. Coffee ana sugar did a
rushing business yesterday at generally
firm prices. Yesterdays wholesale quota
tions follow:

USUAL IRREGULAR
TREND TO PRICES
Reading Easily Principal
Feature of Manifested
Receivers

New York, August Tin its salient
features today's stock market was VIZ
tually a repetition of the preceding
days of the week. There was the usual
irregular trend of prices. the same
professionalism and the same perfume
tory movement In most OF the specu-
1ative Issues, except the anthracite
shares.
Developments of the day included the
declaration of cash and stock divi-
dend by the American Tobacco COM
pany, an event that seemed to have
been discounted In recent quotations
for that stock. In any event the shares
declined Immediately after the action
of the tobacco directors was made
known and became increasingly weak
later.
Reading was easily the principal
feature. not only because of its activity
far outstripping United States Steel,
but by reason of its strong tone which
later spread to Lehigh Valley. Buying
of the coalers seemed to have it's basis
in something more substantial than
mere speculation. There was also some
demand for Consolidated Gas, Peoples
Gas and the electrical issues with
new high record for Sears Roebuck and
a further advance in Studebaker. Steel
was heavy in the early dealing but
recovered toward the close, but cop
pefs were under pressure with smelt-
ing. on weakness of metal stocks in
London. The entire list developed
stronger tone in the final dealings.
London dealt very moderately in our
stocks which showed mixture of
gains and losses at the close.
The local money market was easier
on further foreign and domestic Offer
ings with limited demand.
A better tone was shown by the more
important bond issues. Total sales. par
value, $l,750,000. United States govern
ment bonds were unchanged on call.

nounced favorite and is to be worn
both upon the street and within
doors. Gowns and suits of taffeta
are exceedingly smart.
Foulard is one of the stand-bys and
the foulards of this season are as
pretty as can be. For indoor wear
and for the picturesque gowns that
are so much liked, what is known as
Jouy designs are much used. These
are simply pretty, Powered patterns
over a light ground.
They are especially pretty in COM
bination with plain taffeta, and very
attractive gowns are made from the
two materials. But while silks are to
be much worn, nothing ever really
supersedes lingerie materials and
linen for really warm weather.
Bordered effects are in demand and
a great many of the overskirts and
TUNES are made with straight edges,
which allow of using these mate
rails to bring about ideal results. In
one of the illustrations is shown a
young girls dress with an apron
overskirt of this kind, and such ef-
fectS are among the smartest.
Fichus, too, are important. They
are always pretty and becoming, but
they are especially desirable just now
for the reason that they harmonic to
nicely with the materials in vogue.
Both gowns and coats are worn
with big collars, and these collars,
made of batiste or organdie, embroid-
cred in the punched work style, are
new and dainty and give very
smart finish to an otherwise simple
toilet.
For the little folks dresses will be
used fine lawns, embroidered muslins
and all similar fabrics, but they also
are wearing great deal of the cot
ton voile, which is at once dressy in
effect and durable.
For the sturdy dresses, adapted to
playtime and the happy summer holt
days, linen in combined colors is ex-
cellent, and plain linen of dark tone
is made at once durable and pretty
by finish of some simple embroid-
cred edge. Belts always make
feature of the little girls long-waist-
ed dresses and a great many of patent
leather are worn. The bright red
ones are pretty and childish in eff
feet and are used whenever they suit
the color of the frock.
For the daintier frocks embroid-
cred muslins are always charming,
and the familiar lawns and 'batistes
are much used, so that together with
the voiles and marquisettes there is
very wide range of choice
