c. l.. Green u Co.'s report says: "The
short interest on the old crop continued anM-
GUS, and, with liberal SPOT business, covering
was lively, Prices are quite buoyant, and
with an advance of SOLO per cent, retained
good support up to the close. Less cheerful
crop accounts later in the day and fair sup
port from abroad assisted the upward turn,
While the movements OF some or the principal
| operators revived the i'm preston Of an active
market on the balance of the crop year. New
! crop sympathized with the improving tone to
| some extent, but as a rule continued to be
| handled with caution"
