market. The inquiry has been light and the
prices have steadily declined without any per
Ceptible change n the situation until yesterday
and to-day, when the sales increased some
what. The entire sales of the week were
SPA bales The relation Of supply and de-
mand as rejected upon the present position
is not encouraging, and the market in the
controlling centers lacking speculative sup
port, succumbed. IT may be added, however,
that there is considerable fairly confident
bull talk yet to be heard, based upon an as
sumption that present liberal receipts are
simply a temporary furry, which cannot hold
long and will re followed OY indications Of
crop injury by the late frost that mu st modify
maximum estimates, and there is a great
deal of faith in the reviv1ng influence of the
repeal Of the silver law now accepted as
foregOne conclusion.
