WOES TUMBLE
FIFTY PER CENT
Caused by Unreliability of the
Shipments—Car of Silver
OnioiTs Received—s 3.
Th & shipments of tomatoes for the last
week or two have been irregular and in va
rying condition*. Some days the stock would
be in excellent condition and perhaps the
next shipment received from the packers
would be absolutely unsalable. This constant
changing and unreliability of the tomato mar
ket caused a fluctuation yesterday and the
prices dropped nearly 50 per cent. The for
mer quotations were 90 cents and $1 per
ci'Ale. This morning tomatoes sold at 50 and
do cents per crate. It is thought us Utis
is near the end of the tomalvi sown the
market in this respect will .nut again recover
its strength. If the packers had been more
careful as to the stock they sent to market,
the result would have been a guiu for both
packers and commission men. Part of the to
matoes received were absujutely nothing but
“hulls” of the tomatoes.
Peaches this rooming were scarce and
prices are advanced and 90 cents per
crate. All the peaches on the market were
express shipments and naturally the prices
would be at a higher murk. The prices will
be on an advance irom now ou us there will
be no more carlot shipments and very few
by express.
A car of silver-skin California onions was
received late yesterday evening. The ruling
on this stock is $3 per hundredweight. This
is considered low by the commission men,
taking into account the quality of the onions,
for it is said they are the best that have
been received in the city this season.
Pears are beginning to make their appear
ance in larger numbers and are meeting with
a good demand. The green pears are popular
with the preserving housewife and the- de
mand is increasing. Quotations of rule steady
at $2.50 and $2.6U per crate. The first price
made on these was $2.85.
A car of Valencia oranges arrived from Cal
ifornia this morning, also a car of oranges
from thut state. Lemons are quoted at $8
and oranges at $3.75.
Cabbage is getting more plentiful and for
the last few days the supply on the market
has been heavier than usual. The quotations
this morning were $2.75 and $3.
The beans now being received from Arkau
sas are the best on the market, there being
no demand for the Texas stock. They are
quoted at 90 cents.
Business was not rushing this morning but
there was a fairly good demand in all lines
of trade and the prospects for a heavy busi
ness within* a week or two are bright. The
commission dealers are pleased with the out
look.

about completed by the noon hour while Wed

STRONG TONES ON ALL
NORTHERN MARKETS TODAY
Light receipts and strong tones again mark
the northern cattle markets. Buying was brisk
I and prices advanced; 10.000 head were re
ceived and tho stock was in fair condition.
'Rain reports have put a check to the great
rush to' market caused by the drouth and
now we can expect a strong market and bet
ter prices. The good condition of the northern
markets for the last day or so will do wan
ders in advancing prices all over the etale
and help the cattle men regain some oj the
money, they lost by being forced to market
their cattle at such poor prices.
Chicago and St. Louis markets were strong
each totaling 2500 head. Kaneos City re
ceived 4000 head on a steady market and
Fort Worth 1100. steady.

REPORIS CAUSE
LIVERPOOL PANIC
Shorts Take Advantage of the
Bearish Condition and Ad
vance August 32 Points.
Liverpool this morning duplicated yester
city's antics by opening about as due on the
later deliveries; indulging in a snort period
of hysterics ovuy ram reports, finally wind
ing up by rallying 6 to 10 points from the
lowest and closing 1 to 5 points net advance
on the day. Spots were down 12 points on
sales qS 6000 bales.
The trade on thia side appears to have paid
too much attention to rain reports in the
southwest and too little to condiions in the
central and eastern belts.
There were heavy rains reported at quite
a number vit points in north Texaa aud Okla
homa over night, hut there was a much heav
ier precipitation east of the Mississippi,
where moisture has bean begging for sympa
thy since June 1.
When cur market opened Liverpool was
down enough to have justified a 20 point
break wi this side. Instead £f that first prices
were only 6 to 10 lower nW within the first
fifteen minutes the loss had almost all been
’recovered. Taking advantage of bearish wea
ther reports shorts in the New York August
option attempted to cover and as a result
that racMith advanced 33 points during the
first hour, a net gain of 26 pointa.
Toward noon the market turned weak
additional ruin reports from north Texas and
Oklahoma, some of which were justified by
facts, others proved to be pure fiction, and
prices ran off until tho new crops had de
clined 13 16 points from the best level
reached during the morning.
Support appeared on the decline, however,
and a steadier feeling whs in evidence on the
improved demand for apots which seems to
come from every quarter. Prominent ocal
spot handlers claimed thut bids of a full H
cent over Wednesday’s highest figures were
being made, mat only for immediate shpmeut
but covering all of August delivery.
During the afternoon prices sig sagged back
•nd forth over a narrow range, but the trade
appeared to be focused on the wather in tho
southwest to the exclusion of every other
factor and the trend wan toward a lower level
as the session drew near the end. The last
sales show a net decline of 13 to 16 points
on the new crops, and a net advance of just
20 points on August.
New York epots were boosted 15 points,
Galveston unchanged, New Orleans Iv-cent
higher.
Liverpool in the morning is due 1 lower
on August and to lower on the dis
tant options.
The week-end statistics having been dis
continued during August, no into sight fig
ures or spinners takings could be had. but
allowing 30,000 bales t<h come into sight for
the week, which is a mure than liberal esti
mate, the consumption by mills should have
run over 100,000 bales, as the visible supply
of American cotton during the week shows a
decrease os compared with last Friday of 71,-
00U bales; all kinds decreased 120,000 bales.

AMEND THE PRESENT LAW
REGULATING MILK SALE
Subject Again Being Agitated
By Board of Health —Want
Convictions.
The question of ameqding the or
dinance regulating the sale of milk in
San Antonio is again being agitated
by the local board of health? This mat
ter has been considered cn numerous
occasions and each year calls forth a
storm of protest on the part of the
health officials, who declare that their
efforts to provide the citizens of San
Antonio with pure milk arq made as
naught, because the present ordinance
under which they are operating does
not conform with the state] law.
This matter occupied the attention of
the board of health at the regular meet
ing held last evening at the city hall.
The members announced that recently
milkmen have been convicted in the
corporation court on charges of having
sold impure milk, but that on appeal,
the cases have been thrown out, the
higher courts holding that the ordinance
does not conform to the state law and
that just so long as the present ordin
ance is in operation, convictions ob
tained in the lower court are worth
less.
It was said at the meeting it was un
derstood that the city attorney and the
assistant city attorney have taken the
matter under advisement and may in
the near future, submit to the council
an adended ordinance that will conform
with the State law in every respect. The
health officials have for several years
been endeavoring to bring about this
change, but as yet havje been unable to
do so.
“This is a condition we have been
fighting ever since the board of health
has been in existence,’’ said Dr. Bar
nitz, president of the health board to
day. “The loopholes in the ordinance
make our efforts to provide for pure
and wholesome inilk useless and we will
make every effort to bring about a
change in the ordinance, so that in the
future there will be no trouble in this
respect."
MAYOR LANDS JUNE FISH
AND FEEDS MULTITUDE
The Spanish mackerel Mayor Pro Tem
Richter and the aidermen expected to
receive yesterday failed to reach the
city, but yesterday afternoon late a big
box containing a two hundred-pound
June fish wus received and distributed
among the aidermen and many friends
of the mayor. The monster is said to
have been caught by the mayor himself
aud represents an entire day’s work.
The large fish was caught off Tar
pon by the mayor. Unable to devour the
big fellow on the island the mayor de
cided to send it on to San Antonio. Tho
fish was taken to a local fish market,
there chopped into bits each weighing
several pounds aud distributed. The
meat was very white and despite the
fact that many deciare that a June fish
is not for tho .table, those who were
fortunate enough to get a piece of the
fish, today said it waa tender and
toothsome.
MAINS ON RIVER AND
BRACKENRIDGE AVENUES
The petition of residents and prop
erty owners along River and Bracken
ridge avenues for an extension of the
sewer mains, was favorably considered
at a meeting of the city council sewer
committee yesterday afternoon. Engi
neer Pancoast submitted plans and !
specifications for the proposed sewer
extension and recommended that the
petition be granted.
The committee will draft a report I
granting the petition and will intro-1
duce the same at the next regular meet-i
ing of the council. The sewer will ex-1
tend from Post avenuo along River ave-1
nue to Brackenridge avenue and along j
