WHOLESALE MEN
VERY OPTIMISTIC
Eggs Scarce With Heavy
Demand-Fish Market
Well Supplied

Morris avenue merchants continue to
be optimistic. The trend of the market
is generally upward. but there were
few changes yesterday.
Dealers in eggs and poultry say that
the market on eggs is getting stronger
every day and the price now ranges
from 26 to. 80 cents a dozen, with but
few on the market. The demand is
heavy and the supply growing shorter.
One dealer said yesterday that he was
trying to secure at least four cars and
that he had orders booked for all of
them. 1t is said that the present tight
ness of the market is not only local in
nature but applies to the whole coun-
try as we'll. Birmingham dealers can
ascribe no reason for the shortness in
the supply, but it is thought that the
egg crop in Missouri, Tennessee and
other states to the north is failing.
The fish market is now we'll supplied
with snapper but it is said that other
fish are not SO much in evidence. The
demand is very good and there is but
little change in quotations.
Produce shows no change and dealers
assert that business is lust a little
SLOW" 1t is expected that the demand
viii begin to grow more active within
the next two or three days and clean
up sale is expected today. The supply
is good and prices normal Business in
the produce market has been markedly
brisk for more than month past and
the present slowing up is hard to ac-
count for, say the dealers. The ever
| optimistic note continues to be in evil
dence, however, and 1t is confidently eX
pected that the beginning of next week
trxri1 Gfod hn Iona n hY.ic
usually is at this time of the year.
Corn continues to sell at 81 bushel
and the demand for it is brisk. The
! supply is good. Oats are unchanged as
| to price and the supply is normal AL
| falfa hay is quoted at S2S ton, which
| is said TO be rather high. The sup
| ply is adequate to the demand at pres
ent, but the market Is very firm and
another advance would cause little sur
! prise in grain circles.

RISE IN AMERICAN
STOCKS IN LONDON
Buying for London Ac-
count-Speculation Cen
ters on Steel

New York, November The stock mar
ket has been contending with success
sion of depressing influences for 50 long
that Spectators. were grateful today for
a few mildly favorable developments and
prices were marked up. The movement
was irregular and gains of the leaders
were offset by losses among less active
stocks, but the general trend was up
ward.
The rise in American stocks in London
started thr upward swing here. There
was a considerable demand from abroad,
and buying for London account was esti-
mated at 10000 shares.
Copper stocks were Influenced by the
monthly report of the producers, which
while showing an increase of 2,773,0o0
pounds in stocks on hand, was rated as
Unexpectedly good A much larger ac-
cumulation of the metal had been looked
for. The report was made the basis of
some bullish activity in Amalgamated.
Another favorable feature was the i'm
proved outlook for the money market.
Cash movements of the week Indicated
that the banks would make good show
ing in tomorrow's statement. Foreign ex-
change rates were easier, and 1t was ex-
pected that more gold would be taken
from Europe before long.
Speculation was concentrated largely on
Steel, Amalgamated, Reading and Union
Pacific, all of which were strong. Rub
Der common and first preferred fell 4
points each. being weakened by the Of
fering of $9.442,OO0 new first preferred
stocks. Can was under pressure from
the bears, who revived the old report that
the company would be prosecuted by the
government. On the curb there was an
other brisk advance in the Standard Oil
group.
Bonds were irregular, early heaviness
being followed by some Improvement in
tone. Total sales, par value, S1,332,00o.
United States bonds were unchanged on
call.

STRENGTH ABROAD
HELP WHEAT BULLS
lac to lie Net Advance.
Weather Prospects Put
Backbone Into Corn

Chicago. November strength of for-
eign markets helped wheat bulls today
and the close was at net advance of 40
1he, though easy. Prospects of unsettled
weather put backbone into the corn mar
ket, which closed strong at net gain
of 1s6p3ic Good commission house buying
lifted oats 1sql4c to &c. Provisions I'm
iahed steady to 7lae lower on liberal sell
ing.
Wheat was nervous throughout the ses-
sion until near the close. Gables told OF
a serious crop condition in India because
cf bad weather, and sections of Argen-
tina were reported too dry. The upturn
caused by these adviees gave way tenn
porarily on realizing sales. but a rally
followed publication of statistics showing
primary receipts to be nearly 100000
bushels less than a year ago. Increased
northwestern receipts and an estimate
that the winter wheat acreage is 10
Fer cent greater than last year had no
effect in face of the bullish foreign situ-
alton and the close was near the high
point of the day.
Demand brought about the prospects of
bad weather impaired strength to corn
from the start. Buying sentiment also
was fostered by reports that Buenos
Ayres arrivals on the clean up of the old
crop were showing poor quality.
An official estimate thai the Canadian
crop is 3Oo0O,000 bushels more than last
year did not check the advance caused by
good local demand for oats.
A 1oc increase at the yards failed 10
keep provisions prices up, as local selling
was too free.

COTTON CARRIED
INTO LOW GROUNDS
January Contracts Selling
Below Recent High
Records

| New York. November An early
break carried the cotton market into
new low grounds for the movement to-
day, with January contracts selling at
1S.10c or 1915 below the recent high
record. This decline reflected contin-
ued liquidation and bear pressure which
seemed to be inspired by a crop esti-
mate of 15,S400o0 bales published be-
fore the opening by a travelling expert.
This was also considered responsible
for sharp break in the Liverpool mar
ket. Offerings We're pretty we'll taken
around the opening figures here, how
ever, and prices rallied on expectations
of bullish figures tomorrow with the
close steady at a net advance of to
10 points.
There was heavy general selling at
the start and the talk around the ring
suggested a tendency to increase esti-
mates OF the yield, although the infiu.
ence of bearish crop figures was offset
to some extent by the report of an
other travelingsexpert making the yield
IS, 3,S26,500 bales. This selling combined
with the liquidation noted earlier fl
the week. seemed to relieve the market
/ VI lHe more urgent pressure, ana prices
soon rallied on covering for over the
census report tomorrow, trade buying
and support from some of tho local or
southern bulls. Liverpool was a seller
here early, but offerings from that
source We're shut out by the close OF
, the English market and there was COM
paratively little cotton for sale on the
afternoon advance which carried active
months about s to 10 points net higher
Closing prices We're a shade off from
the best under realizing. Reports that
there was good demand for spot cotton
in the south was one factor on the ad-
vance. but the main feature was the
talk of bullish ginning returns.
