Th.se who 1 covered early were among the best sell- ’ ers later. The unusual week-end short | covering was not hi evidenc. . However,! the market was supported remarkably well by the large spot houses, but the big bulls were absent, and prices after de- • cifning about 7 points from the opening, . but with continued •ggressiveness from brokers representing spot interests a dew points advance was noted. The principal factor today was the fact that John McFadden was very bullish ami is now in the city. Traders were less I urgent in making their deals and handled them with caution, which was evidently logically due because of rhe inactive mar ket during the last half hour of trading. At the close the market was steady, I wiDi prices a net gain of 5 to 13 points from the final odotations of Friday. RANGE IN NEW YORK FUTURES.

As is general on Saturday, today will be an evening up day for the smaller traders in wheat who do not care to stand either long or short wver Sunday, be cause .f the uncertainty surrounding the war situation in the Far First. Liverpool was to lid higher with an improved s)ot demand for Manitoba and Miller's good buyers. Argentine weather unsettled in parts where ’ urvest is on. Corn x-iis up fractionally on shorts cov ering ai d smaller offerings. Llverpo« I was un< I, ,ged tu lower. There were possiblHtii' of a better demand for easn corn, but ti ; s was more than offset by freer country offerings. < iats were unchanged. Hogs at the yards were strong and pro visions were firmer. The situation in wheat was weak at this (‘lose and resting spots lor the day showed net losses *>f U to %c. Many of. those who bought early were on the sell ing side late and they were willing tu ac cept losses rather than carry the wheat over to Monday, when a bearish set of routine statistics art* among the possi bilities. The cash situation was a littlo better with Kansas City reporting ten boat loads for export via the gulf, and thero were 25.000 bushels sold here, and. a fair sized business was done at St. L( >uis.
