the wires to the East which cut on both the
news and orders. Cables were lower There

cember, which closed yesterday at9ilsc. opened
this morning at 93ss@9Sbc, and sold steadily
of without material reaction 10 92asc; May, at
the same time, reacted to $3.50. There was

further appreciation OF 71so was aided to-day.
1t all grew out of the anxiety Of the shorts In

Provisions were stronger and advanced early
because receipts Of logs were below the esii-
mates Later, however, there was a reaction.
and the close was an iEmaterial change from
yesterdays figures
