Market Is Steady—Rate on
Beans From New York Low
ered —Fancy Berries In,
The local produce market is steady today
with prices unchanged on everything. Busi
ness was reported fair. A normal supply of
cabbage is being furnished some ox the com
mission merchants and sold for $2.50 to
$2.75. This is a little off what this product
has been bringing.
A car of fancy Klondike strawberries will
arrive on this market tomorrow morning.
The outlook for preserving berries is very
slim on account of the dry weather and
short crop in south Texas and the further
fact that the demand for the east Texas out
put is enormous. This will cause berries to
bring a good price through the entire sea
son.
Apples are very scarce today and relief
Is hardly expected before Saturday. A few
cherries arrived this morning. Dewberries
are being liberally supplied to this market
and are weak, being quoted at from 82 to
82.50.
A car of dried fruit came in this morning
from California consigned to one commission
house.
Notice was received this morning that the
freight rate on dry beans from New York
had been lowered 15 cents.

MARKET STEADY IN FACE OF
BULLS’ AVALANCHE OF COTTON
Owing to the continued absence ot rain
over the greater portion of the be'.:, with no
apparent relief in slgnt. the cotton market
this morning took on a more favorable as
pect. and displayed more activity than for
■omo days past.
Early cable, were rii;ht in line with ex
pectations, contracts being 1 to 2 lower at
the opening, but later in the session an ad
vance of 5 points was recorded, which ele
vated the entire list to a net gain of 2 to 8
points over yesterday. Spots were unchanged
and sales totaled 10.000 bales.
The May and July positions in New York
were supported by the bull clique and tho
unfavorable weather news from the belt held
the rest of the market. The opening was 4
points lower on May, unchanged on July,
but the new crop months were ushered in
at 4 to 6 points higher.
Both May and July were quickly bld up
to the same level and at one time soon after
the call were 10 points higher than last
night's closing.
There was a little profit-taking around
this level, but the recessions on this account
never extended to more than a 3 point break
from the best prices and as soon as the real
ising was over the market again advanced to
the first high level.
The forecast for the central and eastern
bri* B . I® for rains in Georgia. Alabama and
Mississippi; for Ixtuisiana unsettled weather;
Arkansas, Oklahoma, unsettled, showers,
warmer; east Texas, unsettled; west Texas,
partly cloudy.
There were few scattered selling orders in
evidence during the afternoon, prompted by
sheer dullness, but the recoveries were
quicker if anything than the dedinea and
the market at the close shows a net advance
of 3 to 7 points since last night, the distant
deliveries exhibiting relatively the greatest
strength.
Deliveries on May contracts at New York
tpday were 19,400 bales, making a total of
206,000 bales in round numbers during the
past three days, out of a total certificated
stock of 2260,000 bales.
That the market not only does not decline
but holds steady in the face of this avalanche
of cotton dumped upon the bull clique
speaks well for the strength of their position.
In the meantime receipts at the ports
have dwindled to almost nothing, totals ar
rivals today being only 8500 against 14.039
last year; so far this week 42,831 bales,
against 95,333 last year.

GEORGE WASHINGTON
FINED FIVE DOLLARS
George Washington Sr., a typical
southern darkey, was arraigned before
.Pudge Buckley in the police court to
day, chatted with disturbing the
peace. He was taken into custody by
Patrolman Vidal last night who charg
ed the aged negro with yelling on the
street.
“Hold up that right hand!” asked
the prisoner, when told to be sworn to
tell nothing but the truth, “why
sure! ’’
“I wasn’t doin’ no yellin’ at all,”
testified Washington, “I was just
laughin’ to myself. What I want to
yell on the street ferf I'se been here
for nigh 50 years and was a slave in
his country. Think I’se gwine to bother
anybody f I was jist jolly and laugh
in’.”
“What do you do, uncle!” asked
Prosecuting Attorney Eldridge.
“I’se sells charcoal and votes at ev
ery ’lection and puts Mayor Callaham
and all de rest in office/’ replied the
negro in all seriousness.
‘‘l’ll fine you $5 this time,” said
Judge Buckley.
