opened about Steady-in fact stronger in
Spots-weak foreign adviceS, and continued full
| port receipts being counterbalanced by dis
position to cover contracts on the belief that

| the reduced stocks at interior towns promise at
no late day. The advance of 2Gl3 points was
| mostly made after the last CALL"
