PRICES SOAR 0N
 MORRIS AVENUE General Upward Trend Af- fleets Nearly Every
 Commodity

The war fever, or something else equally serious, struck Morris avenue yesterday, judging from the price changes recorded on The Age-Herald's market page this morning.
 Everything apparently went up except fish, and from the general trend it would seem that people must live more and more on fish if they wish to come out on the right side of the ledger at the end of the month.
 The most notable advances yesterday were in meats. The entire list was rear ranged. Lard went up 1sc from 11lfc to Pc Extra ribs went from s13.65 to s15o71s Pork lons went from IT to 2oc; breakfast bacon from 25c to 2sc: spare ribs from l1c to 121sc; regular hams from 19c to 2o1hc
 But the advances did not stop at meats. Cantaloupes, in spite of the fact that the dictments had been returned against the cantaloupe trust, jumped from g to s225 without a quiver. And lemons. From s4 up to s6.50 at one jump.
 And the peoples daily bread Is made still harder to get. Self rising flour went from s5a5 to s5.50; Tennessee flour from s4.90 to s5.05; Michigan flour from s6.10 to 1925, while corn meal kept company with it's more plutocratic neighbor by climbing from g to s2.10
 Fish constituted the striking exception in the days quotations. Perch fell from Sc to Sc. Blue catfish are now quoted at 7c to Sc instead of S1ac to 911c. Mullet fell from 7c to Sc. Other fish quotations were unchanged.
 Imported Swiss cheese yesterday jumped from 2Sc to 40c, while imported Roquefort was satisfied with jump from 35c to 4oc.

Under the direction of foreign capital railroad bulld- ing is going forward steadily in nearly all parts of the continent; up to the time of the war now raging in Europe. South American enterprises were financed all most entirely by European capital Eng fish, German and French. South Amer ica must turn to the United States now for her financial help to continue the de- velopment she so much desires, and with financial aid from this country will go our commerce to take the place of the European commerce of which they are also deprived.
 To the south. and especially to Ala bama, which state produces in abundance all three of the principal articles now being purchased by the South American countries, cotton. coal and iron and steel products.

DE DEMENT'S IN FINANCIAL WORLD
 MORE CHEERFUL
Steady Progress Made To- ward Clearing Up TangIe in Stock Exchanges.
 Little Chance in Prices

New York, August 10.-DeyeIopn,cn in the financial world today were more cheerful. The fortnIghtly report Of Idle freight cars reveaIed decrease of nearly s0,0o0, bringing the total to the smallest since April l. The United states Steel corporation's monthly re- port of unfiIled tonnage showed nn in- crease of 125,732 tons. the amount of business on hand at the first of the month being the largest for five months.
 Steady progress was made toward clearing up the tangle among stock ex- change houses and customers caused by the closing of the market and the vio- lent slump which preceded it. Unof- ficial prices of stocks quoted today were similar to those heard last week, in most instances approximating the fig ures which prevailed at the time busi ness was suspended.
 No Important Change
 In the money market there was no important change Banks as a rule confined their operations to the satis- faction of mercantile demands. No money was offered on call in the open market and the demand for accommo- dation of this description was reported light. few call loans were made at the banks at per cent the ruling figure at the close of last week. For a small amount of 90-day money per cent was paid today Offerings for fixed dates-were small. Sentiment inn proved over thewe ek-end in the open market for mercantile discounts and paper was purchased more freely, al though the total was still small. Long term paper was most in demand with 6 per cent ruling for all dates.
 Although attempts were made to do business in the foreign exchange mar lxet and some transactions were carried through in the purchase of grain bills, there was still great difficulty in re- a1izing upon credits resulting from merchandise exports. This was sener ally the case on the continent, and in some instances in Londons Interna- tional bankers said little difficulty was being experienced in regard to letters of credit for small amounts. although foreign banks were unwilling to ad vance large sums.

Exit Huerta

Mr.. Huerta has finally resigned and
has turned over the reins Of office to an.
other. His dietatorial assumptions sue
cumbed at last to the steady squeeze Of
President Wilson's watchful waiting pol
icy, which ground slowly but ground him
to powder eventually. With the loot
sent on ahead Huerta will seek refuge
abroad and will live happily ever after
wards in Europe.
This is the first victory of Mr. Wilson's
program which has been so much criti-
cised Thus far, good The President
has spared the country a war, and he
has opened way by which it may be
possible toiorganize a real constitutional
government in Mexico. If now peace
should be restored to Mexico by reason
of the overthrow of Huerta by moral
suasion, Mr. Wilson would not only be
justified in his course, but the United
States and Mexico would 10th be the
gamers. The fate of Mexico is now in
the hands OF the Mexican people. Theirs
is the responsibility. May they meet it
with wisdom, and may the fate of duer-
ia be standing warning to Adventures
and selfseekers of Latin-America that
government by usurpation and assassin
alton will find no favor in Washington
here err
