The agreement which follows the national price and output agreement announced in.. "The Daily Telegraph?: yesterday-will be of great benefit to British ship- bullders. During the period of price-cutting competition between British and Continental Arms, shipbuilders in neutral markets have been able to obtain steel at lower prices than British bullders.

Asia Lande, Limita, has received the following report from their Now "York correspondents, E. A. Pierce & Co. We think there was a lot of "profit-taking and it is probably advisable to watch the action of the tre ket very carefully on the theory that the market may be last approaching a temporary climax paint.
Wheat: There was a lack of support outside the Trade.
Cotton: There was a good volume of domestic trade purchases and some foreign buying. The advance attracted a decided increase in South- era selling.
Silver: Values Anctuated in an erratic manner. Washington press reports to the effect that while zilver was not mentioned in the new mon- etary arrangements, it might figure in the bargaining for international currency stabilisation.
