CoGee Market

 coffee opened steady at an advance of 10 points on December, but generally ? points lower to points higher, the ir- regularity being due to European mar kets as opposed to continued firmness in Brazil, and to the unsettling Influence of denials that the valorization sales talked of yesterday had actually taken place. At first offerings were pretty well taken but selling was heavy later and prices eased off in consequence with the close steady at net decline of to IT points, Whereas yesterday there was feeling in the market that a large amount of valorization coffee had been absorbed without disturbing values, the unsettled tone today suggested some little ner- vousness as to the effect of such offer ings should they actually be made.
