ALARMED SHORTS RUSH TC
COVER.
Market Has No Professional Buy
ing Support and Outside
Orders Are Scarce.

After the shorts had covered early in the
session II was the same old story of de-
clining prices and offers gone begging.
Traders On the long side were at no time
active. and there was no encouragement for
q bull movement. Receipts were again
heavy, though FAR below the average of
last week, and weather conditions were
again decidedly bearish. There was no
professional support after the shorts got
out. and outside inquiries were again ex-
tremely light, though there was a fair cash
demand.
