Futures dropped II points on
the opening market, and went steadily
down after that time until 20 points
had been lost, when on closing q slight
took place, closing from to 2 TO 3
points yer the lowest rates for the
day. Locally offerings were very
light, but still sufficient for the demand,
as buyers seemed indisposed TO oper-
ate even at concessions, which II would
have been impossible 10 obtain yester-
day. The total transactions for the
day, amount 10 less than Is bales, the
prices obtained being fully . under
yesterdays rates, and necessitating q
still further decrease in our quotations.
