in response to weak cables and heavy
southern selling orders. Trade interests
were fair buyers at the decline and cover
ing by shorts was extremely active but
the demands while resulting in some ir-
regularity, was barely sufficient to sus-
tain prices, and the general list ruled
about IT to 20 points under the closing
figures Of Wednesday during the middle
of the morning with every active de
livery making new low records for the
season.
The market continued nervous and I'M
settled in the morning and while prices
rallied 1 TO 5 points after selling, some
20 to "a points under the closing figures
of Wednesday. offerings continued heavy
and the market was within point or
two Of the lowest at midday.
Private reports of lower spots IN the
southwest as well as in the Eastern belt
came in during the early afternoon and
the market worked still lower, selling
26 to 2s points under the closing figures

Der and ga for January the decline was
checked in a degree.
