On the first winter market morning the schedule shifted to six o clock opening. Buyers faced limited high quality produce with plentiful cantaloupes and tomatoes but scarce apples and pears. Prices listed include eggs fifteen cents a dozen, poultry live twenty five cents each, and various vegetables and meats with many items showing decreased availability.
A cautious week leaves trade dull with declines across Industrials led by Tobacco and Sugar. Trost Company stocks stand out as the exception with other highs and bonds trading below peak values while rights and suburban bonds show limited activity and are due for delivery in October.
Traction stocks sell around 100 with decent interest while Norfolk Street Railway bonds bid at 102 and 1044 until year end. Consol’d Railway struggles at 23 to 4, and Government bonds move around 106 to 3s as money rates hold. Leather, wool, coal, and grain markets note steady to mixed demand, with wheat exports totaling over 46 million bushels since July 1 and a new building for Mr. W. A. B. Etchison furniture dealer and undertaker across the street amid improvements.
