kalsc. lower than Saturdays closing figures. The
market ruled temporarily weak and then became
firm, advancing Nc, but later developed very
weak feeling, ami prices declined lklc., held
steady for while. and closed psa34c. lower than
Saturdays closing. The speculative offerings
were heavy at the start, but they were soon alb
sorbod, influenced no doubt by the stronger
tone OF cable advices. There was q very liberal
Increase In the visible supply and very heavy
receipts In tho Northwest, which exceeded any
previous Mondays receipts this season. Coun-
try elevators In the Northwest also showed a
material increase. The local rec, pts we're
