Aug. 17.—Liverpool was verj' poor during the first hour, with futures as much as 8 points lower than due, but rallied somewhat toward the close, probably on covering before Sunday, or intentional support to reg ulate the decline. Spots were 9 points I lower. I Our market declined in the early trading to 11.26 for October, but. being Saturday, the disposition was rather to even up. and covering by shorts rallied prices to 11.37 for October. .Market prospects for next week de pend on weather developments and new crop movement. What is most feared is that new crop offerings in the cen tral and eastern states will come in competition with Texas offerings, which are filling the limited demand.
