A. O. F. Corp. had received the following report from their New York correspondenta, E. A. Pierce & Co. Technical observations are against the market, but we think that the action of the list, as a whole, continues Excellent, with better than a fair chance that the sceptics will be convinced before many days.
Wheat: Market dull. Outside and local interest is dwindling. Late moisture is allaying dry weather fears.
Cotton: There was trading within a ten-point range towards the close and some selling for December by leading spot house. Worth Street in quiet.
Silver: Futures were irrgular during the early trading. Switching From May to September was a trading feature. The market later ruled dull and featureless.
Loans have increase by $68,000,000 in New York State.
