there waa a further dip !u prices, which car
rted m«*st of the options $1 per hale lowet
than the previous close. Melting by Wall
st.. which evidently represented the closing
out of recent long lines, accumulated ou the
theory that a reaction was dne, was the
rest cause of our weakness. Further liqui
dation was In evidence for Slay option, and
nt otic time It looked aa If this position
would sell at 8c, but the same interests
who have seemed willing to take np artuni
tenders were buyers on the decline. Eight
cvnta and possibly 7H cent* Is freely talked
for the option list If food weather prevails
nnd trade conditions do not shew an wtrly
ami decided Improvement. These are the
views of the extremists, who base fhclr
Ideas largely on the theory that the decline
will be exaggerated. Just as the advance
wns. Conservatism, we think, should be
used either on the buying or selling side
on n scab* up or down, as the market will
be subjected to alternate declines and rnl
“es for some time yet.
