tically exhausted, led to continuance of the
recent advance. First prices were % to 3S points
higher: There was heavy profit taking on the
and prices soon after the opening were at a
tions with May selling at 15.25c and July around
1920.
At midday the market was of about ten points
from top under room realizing but still firm as
to undertone. Spot quiet; middling uplands,
1926; middling gulf 1880.
m1ddling uplands, 15.S5c; middling gulf, 10000;
sales, none.
Advances Of 50 to GO points on the active
months, with March selling at 1901 and May and
July at 15.41 had been scored before the upward
movement was checked. Then the demand be.
slightly less persistent and realizing broke

in the past month, but the regular
soldiers will be detailed to do police
duty tonight and protect the exhibits.
There will be mad rush from now
on for cars in which to remove the ex-
.hibits and the work of the demolition

morning.
Many Of the magnificent buildings
that costs from 100000 to 100000
have been sold for 5000 and removal.
The only permanent feature of the
show is the administration buildings,
which are a part of Washington Uni-
versity, and the fine arts building.
Some OF the exhibitors on the Pike
are endeavoring to form permanent
association and retain many OF the
largest features there.
