New York. May. .-r 27-Riordan &
IiveTpSol to-day put the bulls fairly on on
the run. August opened at 774c, reacted
to 1860, and then broke sharply, closing
at 776c bid, with the tone steady. Mr..
Inman no longer talks bullish. He ex-
presses surprise at the weakness in Liver
pool and says it is now very uncertain
what our market will do. 1t seems to IS
pretty certain that the market will go
down unless we should have very bad
crop accounts. There are some complaints
to-day from South Carolina of too much
rain, witha resulting growth of grass and
weeds but the crop generally seems to
be in fine condition"
