Today's indications art* for in creasing cloudiness in the Northwestern quarter and probably showers in south Georgia and Florida. Generally fair ev erywhere else moderate temperatures. Liverpool Is closed to-day and will open to-morrow. Political news from crops Is more cheerful. Peace negotia tions are apparently more definite this time. Our market eased in the early trading to 11.11 for October, but there was a rather strong demand for contracts, which soon steadied prices. Eleven cents seems to be considered the point Of resistance for Ihe critical crop month —August. With a better political feel ing in Europe, more inquiry for fall, shipments is a probability.
