Of 1Q2 points. Trading was confined es-
pecially to evening up accounts IN anti Il
patton of Mondays holiday, and IN View
of the possible climatic changes n the
crop belt, or Of changes at Liverpool be-
fore the resumption Of business here
Tuesday morning. The market was dis
turbcd, too, by rumOrs OF yclOW-fever in
New Orleans, but this influence was only
temporary, as but one case was reported,
and that one was said 10 have been an
imported subject The easier ruling OF
the market followed disappointing liYer-
pool cables especially as 10 spot sales,
continued large receipts, a rather bedrish
chronicle report, as compared with eX-
pectations, and reported less bullish wca-
Their conditions IN the Southwest. But
