New York, July 1S.-To- day has been
repetition of the past few preceding
ones, small general business with a
hardening tone to the market caused
largely by the buying ID the local
shorts. Some orders from New Or
leans also strengthened prices. The
strength was more marked in the new
crop deliveries. July has been neg
lected and August at S50c was met
with large selling orders which hinder
ed the advance. These were absorbed
with difficulty as the demand was for
the later deliveries. Crop conditions
continue favorable.
