Itaoh* k Com- psiy: There was a disposition to take profits In tbe new crop months In Liver pool this morning. In fact, longs refused to realise Saturday on the heller that the weather would continue unfavorable over Rnnday. but when the Hundsy weatber map reporting generally fair and warmer con ditions, with no rain, was received this morning, an unrestrained desire to take profits was lo evidence. The far months sold off about 1ft polnta, while tbe de clines la the near positions were less wide. There waa, ho waver, some demand on the decline from the Houth. and recoveries took place soon after the first half hour. The remarkable feature of the present bull movement Is the resistance to bear pres sure on tb* declines and tbe quick rucov- cries following all depressions.
