A war of Cali fornia tomatoes came in yesterday morning and by night they had been entirely taken up by retailers. Tho shipment was of su perior quality, as has been all the fruits and vegetables shipped from California this Mason. It is raid that tho consumption of lettuce, celery and tomatoes in San Antonio during the fair 5 s about twice as great as it is at other times. The same is'true of apples and oranges and bananas and grapes. Local wholesale dealers are placing their orders for large quantities of tho best fruits obtainable in r adincss for the expected big trade. Poultry receipts for tho early trade have been good, the quality full desirable and movement active. A fair demand for poultry is had daily. Even with the advance of fifty cents a case on Texas guaranteed eggs, the market receipts are not heavy enough to meet the dt-mand. Kansas eggs are twenty five cents higher than they v»ere last week. The city is only light supplied with oys ters and fresh water fish. Sea fish are scarce and the shipments fitful. Ono.o or twice a week jobbers receive big shipments of them andi then they get no more for a day or so. The new crop seeded raisins in clusters and layers and new currants are now begin ning to come in. It is expected that the new crop of dates will be on the market about November 10. - Texas vegetables are here this morning in quite classy quantities and the demand and movement is inclined to be active. Tomatoos, beans, apples, peppers and okra ar« among the consignment. Granulated sueac is quiet th»g morning and is quoted at per hundredweight. This is a decline of about 30 cents under last week. Northern vaTbage lias Reclined 25 cents per hundredweight. This is caused by the sharp competition of the southern grown product. Tho now crop of Mexican chili beanc is now on tho market, quoted at thirty cents a pound. Bulk prices on pickles aro quoted this morning at an advance of about sixty cents a barrel.

UNION STOCK YARDS, Oct. 28.—The market here today came fully in line with tht week’s light receipts, tU» noon count bringing to light only 366 head. Almost ev ery branch of the trade came in for a little something as follows: One hundred and thir ty-four cattle, 54 cahseo, 156 horses and 23 hogs. The quality show while nothing ex traordinary, was very g< od and the market was fully steady to higher. Quotations were of a sufficient height to cause a very good feeling to ensue through the entire day and salesmen as well as buy ero were ver, satisfied with the tone and «sy movement of Ae market. Moat of the arrivals up to. the noon hour came in by rail as follows; Cattle —One car Poth to this market, one car Floresville to this market, one car Karne* City to Fort Worth, privi leged San Antonio, and one car Kerrville to this market. The classiest receipts of the market were scored on a car of full desirable cows ahd calves which were billed from Poth t-o Fort Worth, but owing to some misunderstanding in the billing they were put on this market. The quality of the stock was extra choice and baynrn took thaw abhut when* thaj wa* placed at very fancy quotations. The rest of the arrivals were very medium grades but the outlet was in prime condition and these went with the classiest to patronize the weigher at an early hour. Cows and Heifers. The cow market represented about the haavlMt end of the receipt list and the mar ket was fully steady. Buyers on the early trade were anxious for classy offerings and while this supply can hardly be classed that high, buyers seemed satisfied and bought IO such an extent M to dimmish :h< supply to very low figures by the noon hour. The day’s top was $3.25 and this also can lie quoted as the bulk price, for the sales book shows the majority of the sales of the forenoon to be registered at this amount. Calves and Yearlings. The calf market came very near scoring a blank on the receipt list, the only thing sav ing from this undesirable mark was 54 head. They came in ono lot, rather late for the ! early trade, from Floresville, and were in good condition. They went to one bujer soon after arrival and are entered iu the sales account at $l. Hogs and Shesp. The porker trade this morning fell a little below the ueuai standard in quality as well as quantity of offerings. Only 28 bead were received in the noon count and these topped $8.50 and bulked close aruuud the $8 mark. The hog market also was a one-man affair, fur the forenoon sales were weighed to one buyer. About four load are left tu be dis posed of in the afternoon trade. The local market on live stock yesterday was a “hummer’’ as far as it went. Calves topped $5 and cows the $4 mark. The only thing that could be kicked about was tho quantity, for the quality was all that could be asked.

This is on? of the latest land deals made in that section in many years. Yesterday E. F. Huth of Yoakum sold to J. W. Hobson of Del Rio a 700-acre ranch a few miles south for $l5 an acre. About three years ago Mr. Huth bought this same ranch for less than $7 an acre. Cattle markets all over the country were generally steady on light supplies yesterday. This is a great improvement over that of the day before. Kansas City was steady to 10 cents higher, Bt. Louis ateady to lower and Chicago steady. B. A.

After a strong opening on reports (ri frost in nearly every section of tho belt? th® mar ket turned weak on profit-taking, assisted by fresh selling due tu disappointment that the reaultant damage was no greater. Cables were only 2 to 3 point higher at the opening, but upon receipt of the frost news stiffened up 8 to 10 points, only to decline in about the same proportion, when it was seen that the American market did not take tho weather news seriously, and the <h #lB barely steady, Ite 2 points net advance. Spots were 7 points higher on sales of 7000 bales. Tho opening on this side was 6 to 7 points above last night’s close, but realizing sales caused a sagging off of about a dollar per halo all along the list, some positions selling down an extreme 22 points from the highest but at this level support was in evidence and a slaw rally set in which wiped out 10. points of the. decline. The market at 11 o’clock stood about 8 points lower than yesterday's final sales. At noon snow was rejwrted at Nashville, Memphis and Jackson, Tenn., and as the forecast for tonight indicated freezing tem peratures to the coMt, prices ruled steadier, regaining much of the early loss, and during the afternoon bobbed up through last night's closing bids. The market had the appearance, however, uf being pushed up against its will and met with realizing sales all tho way up, which, however, tends to make it a mure evenly bait anted affair. , There was a little selling toward the close which was 3 to 4 points net decline on the day. The spot markets are steady and un changed. Liverpool in the morning is due about 2 points higher. The movement figures were bullish. Re oeipts at the ports were 51.761 bales against 75.596 last year, so far this week 386,103 against 418.864 last year and since Eepteiu ber 1. 2,502,839 against 2.825,372 last sea son. The amount in sight is as follows: 1910 1909 Net overland 10,410 33.137 Into sight 565,254 RTS,S3I Since Sept. 1 3,357,113 The - strength of the above figures is best shown by the fact that the amount into sight this week la 78.000 bales less than last week —at a time of the season when the move* ui'nt should increase rather than fall off. Sptaaers takings were 321,000 bales for the week against 999,000 last year, which haves the visible supply of American cotton 862,Q00 bales less than last year. RECEIPTS AT UNITED STATES PORTS.
