HEAT BEING FELT IN
WHOLESALE TRADE
Demand for All Comm0di-
ties a Bit Slack-LemOns
Sell Well

The Morris avenue market Is not eN-
actl.- dull, but the continued heat is be-
ginning to be felt in some lines. The
grain and feedstuffs market is in a fairly
normal condition, but the price OF corn
and oats is unusually strong, and 1t Is
said that unless it rains soon there Is a
strong probability of a sharp rise in these
commodities.
The produce market is affected by the
heat along with other lines. but the de-
mand for lines, lemons, pineapples and
other hot weather enemies are combining
their energies to- save 1t.
Business in the fish market Is about as
usual-rather quiet. No change in quo
tations is noted.
Poultry and eggs are holding up well
and there is a fair demand. Prices are
unchanged.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. June 27-(SpeciaL) offenders
were made on July contracts today and
about half of our stock has passed into
the ownership of Liverpool merchants
who found ready market for the cotton
they shipped from here during May and
June.
They are believed to hold more July
contracts than the tenders of today,
though no one really knows what they
intend to do The distant deliveries
hardly moved fuctuating within a range
of a few points. Manchester and our
mills are being sold ahead and Europe in
one shape or another has hedged by buy
ing in the contracts markets. There is
a large short interest which is thus owned
by spinners. The trade outlook for a
July crop estimate of about So to SO.
