Posts London financial cablegram says:
Confirmation OF the Greco-Turkish armis-
tice together with superabundant money
has given the stock markets here boom
ing appearance, although at present the
activity is mainly confined to house specu-
lations. A feature today was sharp rise
in Kaffirs. which. as previously cabled
you, have been oversold: efforts to provoke
a boom may be successful. Foreigners and
all other markets were sympathetically
good. The rumors of suggestions in the
financial news that Brazil might borrow
a large amount from New York are dis
credited in good quarters. About G100,-
900 in Japanese money was released here
today and more is coming out. The Paris

CHICAGO, May 19.-Liverpool had re-
covered an early decline in wheat and was
already Nd higher than it closed yesterday
before this market opened. This was due,
it is claimed, to bad reports from the
French crop. Apart from the cables there
was nothing in the early news differing
much from the prevailing conditions yes

solely to the Liverpool firmness July
opened her from Tic to INC, against yes
terday's closing prices of 705sc, most of the

for an hour the price did not go below

quotations. The crop news was rather
favorable for the bears, as the weather

able with a steady increase in prospect.

bears expressing uncertainty as to the
future of the market, but after 12 o'clock
the market began to go down. Outside of
