Mare 0 LeIand,s Market Letter..

The governments report on condition or S3.3 on June D. issued today, was de- elded disappointment to the trade. It is safe to say that the trade in general ex- pected at the minimum a report of S5 against s4 6 last month, T last year, SS in 1904. and I'll in 1903 and ten year aver age of Si1.
 While the figures were lower than ex- peeted shorts refused to get up any kind of scare.
 For d few minutes after the figures were read pandemonium reigned around the ring. the weaker shorts were put on the run and a considerable amount ol business was done.
 Then the larger shorts took a hans in the game and supplied the ring with all the contracts it wanted.
 The result was that the bulge that only amounted to a paltry 6 to points so small that some people took it as proof positive that the market was not so very short after all.
 The lack of any fireworks on the figures may be explained by the fact that 1t is always hard to dslodge an interest in Oetober and December as early as in the first week of July no matter what features come to light Again, after the first disappointment over the figures, the trade realized that the report only carried inc condition up to June 9 and that a radical change for the better in the con ditlon of the crop had taken place since fhat time in some districts. This is es- neeially true of South Texas
