was evident that spectators AZ a rule
favored the buying side influenced by the
sharp break Of the past two days and
the tendency o: the market during the
morning was TO advance on the slightest

Of the market and confidence by the bulls

son for such sudden collapse must be
ascribcd entirely to speculative condi-
tons in the pit
An attempt to sell out 100000 bushels
OF wheat brought orders before noon, which
was the direct starter OF the collapse.
That selling was regarded with all the
more suspicion, rs II commenced as soon
as the Bradstreet's visible supply state

also bulish. 1t gave the worlds decrease
