WAR RUMOR HOLDS
 FLOUR PRICE FIRM
Despite Great Crop, Staple Food Is Steady on Local
 Market

Quotations on Irish potatoes dropped 50 cents per hundred pounds on Morris avenue yesterday. Wholesale prices ranged from si50 to $5.OO per hundred. according to grade. The supply of new potatoes being furnished from the pro- duce market partly explains the fall. War conditions in Europe are helping to hold up the price of four according to wholesalers. Prices are remaining stationary. despite the promise of a heavy fall production.
 Movements of new cotton in south Tex as and other places caused q slight re- ducton in spot cotton quotations. Mid ding was off 1iz cents per pound. The first new cotton is expected in Birmins- ham in about two weeks.
