The market for coffee futures opened
steady at unchanged prices to decline
of ten points under scattering liquidation
and somewhat disappointing French
cables. At first there seemed to be little
support, but yesterdays late buyers be-
came active during the late forenoon
and the market closed very steady net
unchanged to five points higher. The ad-
vance had the encoura cement of IA firm
spot situation and the continued influence
of small estimates for the coming crop,
while the near months were particularly
firm on demand from trade interests Bus

ing and aggregated $4,000 bags, including
