ceipts later in the session. Fresh buy
ing and the absence of sellers &C.
easioned an. improvement of II from
the bottom, making the net gain to 6
to Z points on the day. Spots were
quieter and offerings from the interior
were on more liberal scale than for
several days past. There is not the
eagerness to buy spots locally as has
been shown for several weeks. The
bulk of the recent sales we are ir-
formed was to fill old engagements
and no new business is coming in on
the present basis. Liverpool cables
that Mr.. Ellison issued a circular to-
day and say there is no reason for ex-
pecting crop under IL ,250, 900 and that
the consumption of American at 5
pence is likely to be under II, 900, 900.
Receipts continue large and outside
speculation is entirely lacking. Re
ceipts will ultimately regulate the flu
ture course of values.
