Cream of Clean-up In Colorado
Received —Kansas Toma
toes Make Showing.
A carload of many different kinds of sum
mer varieties of Colorado apples arrived this
morning and will start something doing in
the apple line. These are quoted at >1.50@
>2 per box, greatly below the market quo
tation. From appearances the Colorado peo
ple had a general clean up of the summer
apples and sent the cream to the market
hefe, arriving this morning. At the present
quotation on these apples the comparatively
small stock will last but a short while. The
stock is in excellent condition, and there is
but a few crates that were damaged in the
least. The stock can compare with any of the
eating apples that have yet been received
here.
The tomatoes from Kansas have made a
showing for themselves this week. While the
demand has been heavy the price has held
ateudy and they are still to be had at the
same old price, $l.lO. There is a large
tnough supply cf thebe rolling now to fur
nibh the markets here with food for a cou
ple of weeks yet. The California tomatoes
are coming at a lively rate, too, and it looks
like there's something doing wherever toma
toes are concerned. The California tomatoes
are bringings readily $1.25 per crate of four
baskets. This morning one firm reported
the sale of uver 100 crates.
A car of Jonathan apples from California
arrived in an o. k. condition. The quotation
is [email protected].
California also furnished a car of lemons
fur the good cause this morning. Quotation
on the fancy stock is as usual 95.50.
Rushing times were seen from the open
ing of the doors thia morning. There seemed
to be no line of trade at a standstill and
every market was a scene of activity.

vance. Spots were 2 points higher cn sales
of 4000 bales.
The American market opened steady and
very active under heavy buying by the bull
leaders, the new crop months bring 2 higher
to 3 lower than last nihgt's closing, after
which outside demand caused an upturn of
6 to 8 points, all of which was held up to
the 11 o’clock call.
The forecast for the next 36 hours is for
unfavorable weather conditions in the south
west, with showers predicted for Arkansas
and Oklahoma, together with falling temper

THAN m EXPECTED
Fields Near Lavernia Yielding
About Fifth of Bale to
the Acre.
Julius Vorpahl of this city returned yes
terday from a trip to Lavernia, where he
visited relatives. He says the cottun fields
are a scene uf activity and that all the tar
mors are busy gathering in the crop. A bet
ter crop has been made, he says than the
farmers expected, the yield being about a
fifth of a bale to th eacre. There are no boll
weevils in evidence, and but for the severe
drouth during the past summer the crop
would probably have run up to as much as
half a bale to the acre. It is expected that
some of the farmers will, try the method of
plowing their fields next summer on the
principles of dry fanning in the hups uf
making a big crop since dry farming has
been tried with success in some parts in
the raising of cotton.
I nthe meantime the September option in
New York, under a flood of notices put into
circulation, steadily declined and after being
3 lower at the opening, auld off to a net
loss of 39 points, jafter which a recovery
of 15 points occurred.
There were reports of a slackening in the
spot demand and lower prices in the eastern
slates and this, together with a general de
sire to take profits over the week-end, fol
lowing an advance of about 50 points since
Monday, led to a general realizing movement
during the afternoon, which brought about a
decline of 10 tu 13 points from the highest
but the low-er quotations brought in good
support and some recovery took place.
The amount brouhgt into sight for the week
was 308,050 bales against 356,783 last year
and since September 1, 688,913 bales against
887.423 last year. Spinners' taksings for the
week were 167,900 against 171,000 bales last
year, about a standoff as a market factor.
The visible supply of American cotton is
972,133 bales against 1,766,928 last year.
Port receipts for the day were 51,257
aaginst 50,209 a year ago. so far this week
233.666 aaginst 287,334 last year, and so
far this season 536,727 against 704,609 last
year.
Spots in New Y’ork were 20 points lower;
New Orlesns snd other southern markets un
changed.
The Mercantile Cotton Crop Reporting as
sociation came out with an estimate of 10,-
200.000 bales for the present yield.
The market eased off again after the post
ing uf the weekjy statistics and closed at a
net loss of 4 to 7 points on the new crops.
Liverpool in the morning is due 4 % to 5
points lower.

SCORE STEADY TONE
Total Receipts of 10,000 Head
Speed Scaleward at Early
Hour In the Day.
Tb« northern livestock markets again re
port "steady” on all yards. Receipts in the
cattle branch are about the usual Friday’s
run and the market was well supplied. The
class cf offerings was very good considering
that the majority are being forced in by the
drouth, and as the packer's coolers were
getting low on butcher stuff, buying stalled
un the eazly morning's trade with noticea
ble activity.
Ruling quotations today, while not of any
unusual nature, could hardly be classed any
thing but steady. Buyers were good bidders
and willing to pay good prices for guod
stuff, so sellers found little difficulty in
sending the majority of the offerings to the
scales at au early hour in the day s trad
ing.
Chicago.
The Chicago market today received 2000
head of right classy cattle and the market
ruled steady. Buyers were in the saddle early
and a good tone was put on this market at
an early hour in the trading. The day s
scales were receivers of quite a bunch ot
heavies fur which sellers received very sat
isfactory prices.
The nog and sheep market was a feature
of the day's trdaing, receipts being light and
the demand good. On account of a detective
wire no definite report uf this branch could
be received.
Kansas City.
Kansas City gnatly resembled Chicago
both in market and receipts. Buyers on the
early trade were a little backward about
filling up on today s “near fats” but when
receipts were found to be uf extra lightness
they were soon on the trade in full force
and doing their best to put an active tone
ou the day’s market. Tho quality of the oi
feriugs was only medium and therefore quo
tations were nut uf sufficient height to jus
tify an active tone, consequently this mar
ket is forced to submit to being firmly steady.
Fort Worth and St. Louis.
Fort Wurth is well supplied on the fore
noon trade and shows rgeat strength in with
holding such a steady Une in the face of
the oversupply that this market has experi
enced for the last ten days. The total re
ceipts of this market today aggregated 2500
head and the offerings were uf good class.
Buyers were on the yards with the inten
tion of having the market all their own way,
but sellers were not of thst mind and held
their stock for higher prices.
When the buying side saw the way the
market stood they gave in and sent most of
the offerings scaleward long before the clos
ing gong sounded.
St .Louis wss steady. The total receipts
of 3500 head were of sufficient numbers to
give everybody a show in the trading and
the market from opening to the early clos
ing was the scene of quick sales and airy
quotations.

UNION STOCK YARDS, Sept. 23.—One
carload of calves from Kerrville was the only
thing in the yards today that could be classed
any way around the choice or even medium
list, the balance of the offerings up to tho
noun hour being of only common pasture
grade.
Total receipts, offerings and sales here to
day aggregate 238 head and were as fol
lows: Twenty eight cattle, 71 calves, 39 hogs
and 100 horsc«. The horses and mules were
received early this morning snd sold to ship
pers who at once packed them iu car lots
and shipped them to Demopolis, Ais., and
Westhoff, Tex., respectively.
The market as a whole today was active
if such a tone may rightly be put on such
light receipts, and by the noon hour not a
hoof remained in the jards without seeing
the scales at an early hour in the day’s
trading. Quotations on the majority of the
sales look poor on paper, but considering
the sorry condition of the stock, quotations
were strong. For the fifty-six calves which
alone can be classed as desirable stuff by
buyers, quotations were high, topping for the
entire lot $4.25.
Cows and Heifers.
The cow trade today is hardly worthy of
a report, only 28 head of common stuff b?
ing received and selling only because there
was nothing else to buy, as quotations which
in not one case exceeded the $3 mark, the
majority bringing $2.50.
Buyers were in need of supplies, today
and whan it was seen that nothing choice
was to deek the yards, the proceeded to load
up on the undesirable, as a thirsty man as
a last resort quenches his thirst with muddy
water. Monday’s cow market is expected to
be in marked contrast with this week, the
oversupplied markets giving place to the un
supplied demand, the slow-, drugy trade to
that of marked activity and the rock bot
tom quotations to aerial market tops. At
least this is what commission men say.
Calves and Yearlings.
The calf market today was the feature of
the day's trading, 56 head of the choicest
butcher stock being received. The market
was active on high quotations and a genera)
good feeling ensued through ths entire day’s
trading.
