be nothing fresh in the way of news, but
the market was nervous and unsettled

bearish view of ultimate results, appre-
hensive Of q renewal of bull support, such
n caused the rapid advances of Thursday
and Friday. The feeling appeared to be
that there was still large short interest
outstanding, and there was some pretty
good buying during the early trading, on
which prices worked up to net advance
OF 10a17 points on the new crop months.
The south continued a moderate seller
here. but the early trading was not par
ticularly aggressive either way, and after
the advance to IL. AZ for October fiuctua-

Bull clique brokers were very heavy
buyers during the first hour and while
there were periods of hesitation and ir-
regularity, the advance continued until
11.+9 and new crop months generally
to a net gain of from 20 to "a points.
Offerings became heavier around this
level, inspired, possibly, by the heavy
new crop movement in the southwest,
and the market eased off to or

midday, with prices still showing
