rallied to q shade over the close of yes

was quiet and sentiment again seemed
to be more or less unsettled, with selling
restricted by fears of unfavorable weather
while buyers were held IN check by APP
prehensions OF further spot weakness.
Trading became much more active later
in the forenoon. The market weakened
under Southern selling. offerings from
leading spot houses scattering liquidation
