Houston and New Orleans slightly under Iast

much buying, aud the decline was probably
the result OF tired longs selling more than
anything else. although IL may DO said senti-
mont is becoming somewhat bearish as a re-
cult OF the continued apathy on the part OF
foreign SINNERS and fear that the move
ment NAV not show any marked decrease TOR

preparations for the coming crop are being
