Spot quo tations were raised 6 points; sales 6,000. This attitude of the English market Induced sump short buying here this morning at an advance of 13 points. There Is a different tone to the market. The bear element Is mote discriminating In Its selling autl any bullish occurrence In the wny of weather would have a chance to be considered. A leading Now York house sends bullish ad vires based on the attitude of producers li the South. The announcement In the morn Ing press that nearly I2.000.000 will come here to relieve the money stringency like wise raised hope for support to the mnrket by spot Interests. Our advices from good people In the Interior are persistently to the effect that It*Is hard to get cotton st He* right basis, and offerings are incon sistently light. Around 10 o'clock news was received from New York that there Is eon slderable selling, supposedly for Price In terests, which at once Induced selling here nnd loss of the first gain, but, like yester day, the ,if>afK4t- lias more recuperative power *and showed up well In the face of «II pressure.

The Canadian North west has suffered a Serious disaster, and It appears probable that very little high-grade spring wheat has been produced Ju North America this year. This fact promises a situation very like that of 1904, wbeu con tract grade wheat available wai compara tively scarce and high. It will, however, enable exporters to work advantageously on the lower grades nt the much lower prices current. The months of big export clearances and sales me Just ahead.
