transportation of cotton and yarns. The tropical disturbance according to last nights Washington reports. appears to have occurred and to have passed to the northeast, a short distance east of Turks Island, and no further signs of secondary disturbance. Generally fair weather is indicated for the west gulf states during the coming week and frequent showers in the south At- lantic and east gulf states. If the gov ernment report was made up t date 1t would show a condition of about s2s, and if this should be maintained for one week longer the July 25 con dition report would indicate a crop of over 16,000,000 bales including 1inters. The average condition for the past 10 years on July 25 Is 7S5 and unless something unforeseen happens during the present week the next government report will probably show the highest condition in 10 years with the possible exception of 1911. With prices now 4 cents per pound higher than last year, we see little upon which to base bull ish operations and think a good decline Is near at hand.

HEAVY ADVANCE IN
 PRICE OF FLOUR
Demand Decreases for Pro- duce on Morris Avenue
 and Prices Drop

All grades of flour advanced from 10 to 20 cents on the barrel on Morris avenue yesterday. According to dealers the ad- vances which have been regular for the last week Is due to several causes. Re cent rains contribute their part to the advance, but the raise is due largely to black rust in the northern wheat section, while the crop is reported much shorter this year than last.
 Dry salt bellies reached the highest point in price noted or several months yesterday when it reached the 17-cent mark. There was no other change in the meat market.
 Produce on Morris avenue is not in as much demand as 1t was few weeks ago This is said to be due to locally grown stuff being brought in by farmers of this section. Tomatoes dropped 25 cents on the basket yesterday

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, July l7.-(Special.) )-Natural- ly reports of the severe storm in the At lantic states, which had been cabled to Liverpool. brought covering there today by recent sellers Our market failed to maintain the improvement which had de- veloped abroad, as there was sufficient offerings from the southwest, where the crop is making excellent progress to sup ply the demand. based on fears of serious damage in the Atlantic states. In fact information from reliable sources would seem to indicate that the corn crop was more seriously hurt than the cotton crop, the uplands being little, if any, affected The market is waiting for detailed in- formation but in the meantime shows lit- tie resisting power when offerings make their appearance. We are now, of course, in that stage of crop development when
 damage reports are to be expected but
 it is we'll to bear in mind that we are
 entering 1t with the crops in Texas. Okla
 homa and Arkansas in as good a condi- ton as has been seen in many years.

About What He Deserves

From COIIlerS S.
 Nesting in a newspaper corner next to the Panama hat ads we find this stray sunbeam of a heart throb:
 "The first face the baby sees In this world is full of kindness, and the last to bend over him when he is old and dying is full of pitying tenderness. It is the faces he sees in between that cause him his trouble"
 This is a dear sweet thought, but 1t strikes us that the 'in between" faces are looking at him and very likely re- flecting back to him just about what they see. Quite often 1t is not either kindness or tenderness. for taking it by and large this Is fairly just world.

New York. July 17--There was no change in the local market for raw sugar today and interest was lacking with re- liners apparently out of the market for the moment at least. Holders still of fered to sell nearby Cubas at last prices of 5%c. but renners, owing perhaps to the disappointing demand for refined, were more inclined to hold cn and await developments. Closing prices were nom inally unchanged at 5ssc for Cubas, cost and freight. equal to 6.40c for centrifugal. and 5.6sc for molasses
 In refined there were no changes in list prices which were quoted on the basis of 7.6sc for fine granulated. but the de- mand was very disappointing, and only a moderate business was reported.
 The dullness of the spot market caused holders to liquidate In the market for sugar futures today and as the demand was light prices eased off, closing to 5 points below last weeks finals.

New York, July 1.-The market for coffee futures opened at a decline of to points owing to moderate selling by houses with foreign connections and most of the day was extremely dull within a very narrow range of prices.

Sentiment here was influenced somewhat by the strength in Brazilian
