strides recovered 10 &C. Tor July. The
day began with rather discouraging out
look for holders, yesterdays closing
weakness being carried into the opening
transactions. ami for awhile II looked
rather gloomy for prices, Al Iif.c. for
July a steadier feeling developed, follow
ing which a gradual rise 10 I6Ac took
place. The weakness was the effect OF
rains and showers In Kansas and Ne
braska last night, and further realizing

OF strength that have yet been seen. July
was holding steady around 1tc., but within
five minutes sales were being made at
Ts7alt7gAc. The bulge was so quick and
unexpected that the amount OF trading
was comparatively small between the
prices mentioned. the gain being made In
I. and nc. jumps. AT the advance there
was scarcely any relaxation In strength.
