FINE FRUITS ON
 MORRIS AVENUE Farmer Supplying Trade With Small Stuff-POul-
 try and Eggs Firm

Farmers are furnishing the trade witt small stuff and the produce dealers or Morris avenue have ceased to handle small vegetables with the exception of onions, tomatoes and potatoes However there is a fine variety in the stock of fruits. Among the various kinds of fruits found in profusion on Morris avenue are peaches, plGms. grapes and cantaloupes, and last but not least the ever popular watermelon which this season Is very plentiful and is selling with briskness.
 The dry salt meat market offers no changes from Saturdays quotations The hot weather has much to do with the present falling off of trade on meats.
 The grain dealers reported a few price reductions in corn, corn chops and pure wheat shorts Fine business in all lines" is the comment of the grain mer- chants in answer to inquiries regarding trade.
 Poultry and eggs retain their firm prices with an ever increasing demand and a low supply which would indicate that prices on these two commodities will in the near future go higher.
 Sugar and coffee prices are firm and trade up to the standard.

REALIZING HEAVY
 AT INITIAL ADVANCE
Cotton Closes at Decline of 1 to 10 POints-Opening
 Steady at Advance

New York, July 15-After making new high records on most positions at the opening today, the cotton market turned easier on reports of showers in Texas and closed steady at a net decline of from l to 10 points. The market opened steady with an advance of to 10 points in sympathy with strength of Liverpool and on indications of further showers in the eastern belt.
 Realizing was very heavy at the initial advance. while there also appeared to be considerable selling for reaction on private predictions that the lower tenn perature noted north of the belt would work southward and probably cause showers in the sections of Texas and Ok lahoma.
 Offerings were we'll absorbed of to 10 points from the best and the market later in the morning recovered to nearly the opening figure on reports that storm sig nals should be ordered for the Atlantic coast from Charleston to Jacksonville and on the official eastern belt forecast | for general showers east of the Mississip- pi river tonight and tomorrow. | Many of the early sellers were credited with covering on this rally which in ad dition to prospects of continued we weather in the eastern belt had the en couragement of bullish support that tht report rumors that leading trade interests

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, July 15.+Cotton futures opened steady at an advance of to , points on good cables and an unfavorabIe weather map. Conditions over the belt underwent little or no change over Sun day Dry weather continued in the western belt and showers fell in the east ern Immediately after the call prices stood , to points up. The forecast of unsettled weather for Oklahoma and East Texas started a selling wave and at the end Of the first half hour of business prices were four points under Saturday $ close on the trading months.
 The eastern belt forecast of showers
 was a support to the market as 1t caused a covering movement among the early sellers of the morning Prices recovered until they were on a level with Satur- days final quotations Gossip said that leading bull interests were selling con siderable cotton, which made smaller traders on the long side wary. The first
 bale of the new crop to be received here came in this morning and was sold at auction at 2S cents pound. This was, of course, d "sentimental' transaction and had no influence on the market At noon prices were to ' points below Saturdays S close on the active. months.
 In the afternoon the market broke on reports of rains in Texas. At ? o'clock prices were 15 to p points under Satur- days close.

WHEAT DROPS OVER
 4 CENTS A BUSHEL
Promise of Record Breaking Crops Smashed Price
 of Wheat

Chicago. July 15.-Record breaking crops that experts today declared to be fairly in sight smashed the price of wheat The market here closed demoralzed, SssdsSc to 4d4isc; a bushel lower than 4S hours before.
 Corn finished at a decline of %d1ac to 1l2c. Oats down 1dflsc and provisions varying from 71ac off 70 1d11ac advance. One of the best known authorities in the wheat trade announced without re- serve cents in North and South Da- kota, and Minnesota pointed to a yield of 200, 900 bushels, a total far over any previously reached for the three states named At the same time there was evil denee that Kansas would have to be cred tied with between 90,00oOoo bushels to oo,ooo,ooo bushels. An amount much in excess of the estimates heretofore ac- cepted as highest.
 Holders of wheat showed discourage ment from the start. A sudden turn to cool weather northwest insuring heavy filling of the grain just at the present stage and rendering unlikely any serious menace from black rust led to free sell ing by owners and spectulators who be- lieved that the market was bound to drop. It was the disappearance of pur- chasers. however that worked the most variations with the prices
 Canadian grain men put the final stroke to the breaking prices. Winnipeg sent | word that the three northwest provinces could be counted upon for 25O, coo, ,oo( | bushels and showed raith by lowering | quotations in a hurry
 The September delivery in Chicago which during the day had ranged between 96ssc and 1O0ssc. an almost continuous decline, stood at 96s4de67sc at the end leaving the loss for the day 40I4kc net The fact that current arrivals of corn are light averted pressure on that cereal despite the excellent crop outlook. Sep- tember fluctuated from 6Sa6sIsc and closed easy 1ss@1Isc down at 6s6eShc, Cash grades were in poor request. No two yellow was quoted at 74Id75Kc. In the deferred options, oats swung to the lowest point of the season. Weak ness Of other grain furnished the main reason. July had set back, too. not withstandng the smallness of the stock on hand here. It was feared that new oats might arrive fin Chicago in time for de- livery on this months contracts. Sep tember ranged between s4ssc and 35Ac with the close s49sc. net decline of To 1bc.
 Provisions required support from pack CTS. Falling off in exports had a bearish Influence and so did the tumbling prices In nelghboring points. When the day ended, pork and lark were 5d71sc less expensive. Bacon, however, was un- changed to 21sc up.

New York, July 15.-(Special. .)-Early 9Gvices were decidedly bullish, good ca. tles both public and private and con. tinued dry Texas weather. On the re- sulting advance profit taking was large and the spot interest appeared as 2 seller.
 Reports from Texas were gloomy ana the lack of rain there was added to by too much in the eastern belt The trade is a buyer on the weather conditions. and when report of rain at Dallas came in the early afternoon. prices declined rap- idly under selling to realize.
 The market is evidently dangerously high and any improvement in condition would result in sharp decline

A Prisoner of St. KiIda

From the London Chronicle
 A romance of St. Kilda is the story of Lady Grange, Wife of an eighteenth cen tury Scottish lord of session. she was for some mysterious reason seized and carried off In the dark, she knew not by whom, and conveyed by night journeys to the highland coast and thence by sea to St. Kilda.
 There among the few inhabitants she re- mained for several years as a prisoner. provided, however. with a constant sup ply of food and a woman to wait upon her No inquiry was made for her, but at last she conveyed a letter to a friend by the daughter of a catechist, who hid 1t in a clue of yarn. A ship was sent to rescue her, but her gaolers got wind of 1t and transferred her to the island of Herries. where she died.

BANK STATEMENT
 A|DSST0CK MARKET
Steady Strength Manifested. St. Paul RecOvers
 Over 2 Points

New York, July 15.-Steady and consis- tent strength was manifested by the stock market today the result primarily or last saturdav,s strong bank statement which rectified the adverse conditions or the preceding week. when deficit In the act ual reserves was reported. Prices moved in a leisurely fashion throughout the ses- sion, but gains were general. particularly in stocks of speculative importance St. Paul. which was the weakest feature Of the market in the closing day of last week. recovered over points from its low level of that period despite increas- ing belief that the approaching semi-an- nual dividend may suffer further reduc- tion. Union Pacific, Norfolk and West ern and other dividend payers reflected moderate absorption with a fair demand for some of the specialties comprising the electrical and equipment groups. There were virtually no transactions in the se- curities in the several express com panies, whose earnings are likely to be somewhat impaired by reason of the new rate system ordered by the interstate commerce commission. Best prices were recorded In the final dealings. when American Tobacco scored sharp ad- vance.
 Another beneficial effect of the bank statement was the greater ease of money, which showed a relaxing tendency in call loans, although demand was somewhat :. in excess of recent days. Western money markets were frmer, however, a condi- ton arising directly from business re- vival and increased trade activity. Traf- hc managers in that section report a larger freight movement than year ago. s
 Bonds were steady but dull. Total sales, par value, amounted to g, ,530,000 United States government bonds were unchanged.

London, July 15.-Consols touched a new low record of 75h today. Apart from the general tendency of British financiers to discard home securities in favor of for eign stocks, today's slump was partially due to rumors of a treasury bill issue amounting to $50.0o0.0Oo in connection with the National Telephone purchase and the congestion at the same time of the mar ket for new issues, No fewer than eight prospectuses of new concerns this morn- ing invited subscriptions aggregating nearly sl5,0o0,0oO.
