But Demand is Light. Texas tomatoes were seen on the market Ibis morning for the first time in several weeks They came from east Texas, and the supply was sufficient to supply the demand. It cannot be said, though, that these toma toes were of excellent o.uality. Some few of them were matured, but the majority of them were still green, in places. This is because the Texas tomatoes can not’be left on the vine until they are fully ripe. If this were done they would split as soon as signs Were evidenced of maturing. Those on the market this morning were quoted at $1 per crate. In a few days there will be shipments from Kansas on the mar* ket again. A good sized shipment of Texas peaches put in its appearance this morning, but the demand was not as heavy as was expected. This stock is not as choice as that from California, so did not meet with a heavy sale. There will be little more on the market, and that received this mornitjg was a glean ing from the exhausted Texas crop. The shippers in California who have been bend ing the large Elberta peaches can now vir tually command their own prices. There are no Texas peaches to be nad and if there were the demand for them is gone, so as a result the quotation on tho latest shipments of peaches from California is $1 and $l.lO per crate. And incidentally we have to pay th’a or do without, because there is an unlimited demand in all parts. Several shipments in carload lots of mixed fruit from California are booked for arrival in the city this evening and will add greatiy to the activity of the life of the trade. Among the mixed fruits are peaches, quoted at $1 and $l.lO per crate; grapes, at $1.50 and $1.65 for blacks and $2 for the white; plums, at $1.65 and $1.73 per crate, and pears at $3. The delay in the arrival of these shipments was caused by a railroad deten tion. The supply of celery in the markets this morning was sufficient for the pleasing od«r to be detected some distance away. The quotation is steady at 05 cents per dozen stalks. A car of apples was received yestcrilay from California of the Gravenstein and Alex ander varieties. The Alexanders sold uMt immediately, and there arc but few of the Gravensteins left this morning. Both were of excellent quality and quoted at $2 and $2.25 per crate. j A car of onions is /due to arrive thia evening or tomorrow and will be quoted at $3.75 per cwt. A car of lemons will come hi this evening and a car of bananas the first thing in the morning. Lemons are nt Ui at the $6 mark and the bananas, of course, Steady. VEGETABLES.

SAN ANTONIO LIGHT AND QAZETTs LOWER LEVEL DUE TO EXPECTED RAIN Opening Slightly Down and Un der Free Selling Sinks 12 Points Before Shorts Cover. Early advices from Liverpool were much better than expected, contracts at one time being 7Vs points higher than yesterday’s close, but on bearish weather reports from this side turned weak before the opening here and finally closed IVi net loss on the summer months, to 2 net advance on the uew crops. Spots were 3 points higher on sales of jtOOO bales. / Outside of Houston thAre was no rain in the southwest, but forecasts covering the next 36 hours predicted showers in Okla homa and Texas, and this, in connection with the continued heavy run of new cotton at the ports turned the market towards a lower lever. The opening was 1 to 3 points lower than last night's close, and under a rather free selling movement sank to a net loss of 10 to 12 points before a turn came when cover ing by shorts steadied the market somewhat and brought about a recovery of 5 to 6 points. The weather map at non showed both Texas and Oklahoma as dry asa bone, and for the rest of the day the market ruled with a verv strong undertone. Sellers of tho morn ing were the very best of bulls during the afternoon, evidently realizing that there was nothing particularly enticing in selling con trade* for October delivery around 18% cents, and spot cotton selling for 14 cants in the interior, with the caprices of tho weather to be taken into acount in the meanwhile. The market rose steadily until at the close all the active positions had scored advances of 2C to 25 points from the lowest of the day and netted improvement of 7 to 19 points over last night’s close. New York was 15 points higher on spots, New Orleans and other southern spot centers unchanged to He higher. Port receipts are quite large for this time of the year, total at all seaboard points being 9847 bales, against 2391 last year. Liverpool in the morning is due about 7H points higher. Later through tho day reports ral- lies market, which ruled string.

Union Stock Yards, Aug. 16. —The cattle market at the local yards today wzz tlrong in all branches, and everything received up to the uoon hour was sold shortly after arrival. The activity of the marxet today was about the same as yesterday, and the stock was in very fine condition considering the time of year. Today's receipts w4»re the lightest that have been experienced at these yards for some time and the demand for cattle far ex ceeded the supply on hand. Fort Woith and Dallas packers were in the yards today and helped to make things lively on the buying aide. Several other outside buyers were here today, but most of the sales up to noon were mad* to local buyers. Several car loads an? to arrive tonight, and the out-of-town buyers expect to buy a good dhare of these. Prices today ruled firm and were satisfactory to both sides. Total receipts here today aggregated 218 head, and were as follows:* Calves 114, cows and heifers 39, sheep 28, steers 14, and hogs 9. Calves were steady and the market active. Best calves brought $4.50, the ma jority bringing $4.25. Cows met with a very good demand and were of good class, bring ing $3.25 steady. Steers brought $3.25, hogs 7c and 8c and sheep Bc. The light receipts today will cause a good market all week, and commission men arc greatly encouraged by the improvement in the grade of stuff. 6000 TONE IN NORTHERN MARKETS Receipt, in the northern rattle markets today were a little heavier than the usual Tuesday's run, but the demand was good and all markets report good tones with the exception of Kansas City, which from some unknown cause waa flooded with cattle, and although the market held up exceedingly well under the great strain, the heavy receipts counteracted the stability of the usually strong market end gave it a lower tone. Chicago reporta a steady market With re ceipts aggregating 7,000 head. The market was active from opening to eloae, and com mission men had little trouble in disposing of all stuff on hand. St. Louis was strong, and as tho receipts were rather light and the demand good, prices on that market experienced a slight rise. had the largest receipts today that had in some time. The market was steady and sales good. The markets as a whole today were in the best condition that they have been in for quite a while, and ajsery decided improve ment over the marketnif yesterday. The rest of the week is expected to be feme in the way of ree-eipts, and thia will gratly help pricea to gain a higher standard.

The limit of time for conference changes expires tonight. Nothing can be done with the bill on the last day, tomorrow. The outlook is that no insurance bill will pass at this session. Announcement of the governor’s pur pose regarding another special session is expected as soon as it is disclosed that no insurance legislation is possi ble. “I have made no announcement as yet,” Gov‘l nor Campbell has just said. MISS CARROLL IS IMPROVING As soon as Miss Carroll can speak coherently and tell her side of the events transpiring on - Ninth street when she was wounded bj* a pistol bul let, District Attorney Baker xiH visit the Santa Rosa infirmary to take her statement. Today she is reported to be semi conscious and apparently able to un derstand when talked to. While awaiting a turn for the better or the worse in Miss Carroll's condi tion, James P. Earl is kept in the county jail. Twice already the time has been set for his preliminary hearing and subsequent habeas corpus hearing, and each time a postponement was taken because tho young woman was unconscious and death was hourly ex pected. Miss Carroll appeared to be im proved today, according to reports from her bedside. Her sister says sho believes that consciousness is returning, and that although she is yet unable to speak, except by incoherent whispers, she believes that the injured woman understads the greater part of what is said to her. f She appears, to be suffering less, and attendant physicians are now more Ijopeful that there may not be a fatal termination to the bullet wound. Sallow complexion comes from bil ious impurities in the blood and the fault lies with the liver and bowels: — they are torpid. The medicine that gives results in such cases is HERB INE.

Austin, Tex., Aug. 16.—Legislative opinion has veered from the belief that the governor will not call a special ses sio* to one of almost certainty that he will. The main purpose is said to bo the penitentiary reform. The governor is still wearing his mask, but it is said today that he has stated confidentially that everything depends on the transac tion of business today. This was probably the cauro of the slaughter of the liquor and elec »on bills in the house and the senate’s passage of the i franco bill with amendments. When t’ ic action was announc'd in the house V«iu_Lnn moved not to concur in the amedments in order to rush the bill at once to a free conference c mmittee, but it was afterward decided to make the measure a special ora-r for 3 o’clock this afternoon. Night sessions in both houses are likely tonight in the rush to get away. Governor Campbell was in both galleries yesterday aftttrnoon closely watering the legislators, and is in touch with the situation todayv * Apparently he has made up his mind, and there is reason to believe that despite all efforts a sec ond session is coming. MAIBAUM FREED Ex-City Detective Was Charged With Vagrancy—Has Jury Trial. The exclusion of evidence showing bls associates during the past few months.) । testimony that he had been employed for the past thirty days, the injection of the question of persecution instead of prosecution, and receipts showing that he was a taxpayer in the city, were the elements that secured the acquittal of Frank Maibaum, ex-clty detective, in a trial before a jury in the police court this morning on a charge of vag j rancy. Maibaum appeared in court this morn ing a number of witnesses and was represented by Attorney Gordon Bullit. The complaint was made by Will F. Green, city detective.
