| and nervous after Yesterdays Gig break. The
| opening was a little higher than yesterdays
! closing. the first sales of August being at
| 7.1ic. Then for time the tone was weak
! august declining to 70Sc, but In the last hour
| there vas a marked improvement in feeling,
| as well as in price, and Aug lst sold up to
| G18c. The leading local bear tried to depress
| the market Just before 3 o clock, Offering
| August at 7.l3c, but the close was steady at
| Z lie bid for august. After the close, Else
was freely bid, but nobody would sell. The
prevailing opinion this afternoon is that
although we may have lower prices later on,
the decline has gone quite far enough for the
present, and that a good rally is more than
likely. Unless Liverpool disappoints us to-
morrow we shall certainly have some re-
action"
