LATE NIGHT

CABLES

The following cables were re célved on Saturday, night by the American Oriental Finance' Cor poration and S. E. Levy & Co1—

London Forecast

The cotton market is expected to | open"higher." The project for hav- ing the Government to assume for- eign exchange risks by clearing ex- ports through ⠀ the Stabilisation | Fund is 'potentially favourable to all U.S. exports, including cotton.

In wheat, the Chicago domestic situation is bullish from nil angles.. Winnipeg will probably reflect ner- vousness regarding Government re- guation over the week-end,

Not much change in the rubber market is expected..

AO.F.C. New York Cable The market opened unchanged and very Ustless with no volume. California stocks are better.

Cotton, selling is light. There is better domestic trade - offtake. Tone steady.
