Gilbert G. cIay's Market Letter

leading banking houses OF London was
rumored to be in difficulty and that the
financial situation was greatly disturbed.
Options lost in the net result 9 points
over yesterdays close Spot sales 5000
bales at a decline of 4 points.
The unexpected developments abroad in
financial matters. and the decline due
thereto of the foreign market, had a de-
pressing effect on opening prices. Consd-
cradle concern was manifested during the
day and even the many denials, or re-
ports of assistance rendered by interests
vitality affected had but little influence
in dissolving the uneasiness for 1t was
rather felt that even though serious trou-
BILE was for the present averted. the mat
ter had not as yet been finally adjusted
However considerable support was rem
dered by bull interests, both locally and
the eastern market bnt influences were
too strongly in favor Of lower prices to
allow Of other than temporary improve
ments.
Today's map was very favorable. show
ing clear dry weather in the Atlantic
states and advices from that section were
of the same tenor. while prospects for
tomorrow are for a furtherance Of these
conditions.
