Wheat: Continued dry weather forecast in the North-West and Canada encouraged local traders to reinstate long lines on a very thin
market.
Cotton: Stoudier in sympathy with other markets. Offerings were light. There were fair rains througout the belt. with the exception of Central Texas,
Silver: The market was very dull and featureless. Only 45 con tracta were negotiated. Businem Done: 890,000 shares.
