We think that traders are disposed to accept.small profits and are bot inclined to extend themselves very far in either direction. We think thas the general action of the market is encouraging and is continuing th indicate a firm foundation.

Wheat: The rally continued as a result of the liquidation of distres sing holdings and purchasing by those believing in favourable silver action over the week-end..

Cotton: Small Southern liquidation was absorbed by scattered domes tic and foreign trade, interests. The weather in the cotton belt was

favourable.

Silver: Commission-house liquidation was absorbed on the scale dein from scattered sources Demand was restricted owing to a desire to athit the outcome of the Silver Conference and the signing of the Bankhead Bill by the President.
