by recent sellers and fresh buying in
spired by reports of very heavy rain
fall In gulf and central sections of the
belt, accompanied by drop i'll tempera-
lures. The trade was absolutely unpre-
pared for this showing. which caused a
sharp advance in Liverpool before the
local opening, and at the start here bust
ness was sensationally active. There
was heavy realizing at the advance, how
ever. and later fluctuations were shade
Off from the best
Only slight reaction followed the initial
advance, and later i'll the morning fresh
buying for long account was apparently
inspired by Liverpool cables stating that
the labor troubles in Lancashire had been
settled and that work would be resumed
Monday. Prices readily recovered the
early setback in consequence. and the
market at midday was firm at net ad-
vance of 1Sa22 points. Spot, quiet mid
