Busi? ness was more active than for some time past, and prices made new high ground for the movement on both old and new crop month.?, with March making a new high record for the season. At 36.63c for May and 31,K0c for October, however, there was a good deal of realizing, which became more active during the early afternoon, when the disposition to take profits may have been increased by re? actions in foreign exchange. Prices lost a good part of their earlier gains In con? sequence, with May selling off to 36.35c and closing at 36.53c. The general mar? ket closed steady at a net advance of 5 to 30 points after having shown gains of 28 to 65 points as compared with Wednesday's final figures. Private cables said an early break In Liverpool was due to the advance In ster? ling, but the English market rallied very sharply Just before the start of trading here. This was attributed to straddle buying and trade calling in the near months, and the local market oponed at an advance of 5 to 32 points. These gains were soon increased with the buying of new crop months, accompanied by re? iterated reports that trad" interests wore hedging forward sales of spot to both for? eign and domestic trade interests. There was also buying on the unfavorable weather. with a prospect of Its continuance In tin South, and new crop positions sold 55 to 65 points net higher, compared with ad? vances of 28 to 36 points in the old crop deliveries. In the case of May contracts this made an advance of over 5 cents per pound from last month, and in addition to realizing there was probably scattered selling in the late trading on a belief that the technical position of the market had weakened. Reports were circulated that 60,000 bales of cotton In the Houston stock ware ear? marked for shipment to Germany and that there was also a good demand for cotton out of the local stock. These fea? tures had no appreciable influence on the market, and traders, at the moment, seemed to be chiefly Interested In the big discounts on the late months, the ab? sence of spot pressuro and the less favor? able view of the new crop start. South? ern spot markets as officially reported were unchanged to 60 pointa higher, gen? erally unchanged. The locar spot market was steady and unchanged at 41c. No Bales were re? ported.

In the looal market there wa? an active export demand which wa? supposed to be for French account, and sale? were reported of 300,000 bushels. This demand ha? been In evidence for the past week or two and haa practically absorbed everything In 'sight hero. In consequence prices In the local market aro very strong with No. 2 red winter quoted as high as $2.68 o. I. f. New York. Trans? portation facilities are largely responsible for the scarcity of wheat for export, but It Is evident that foreign countries aro still desirous of buying hero an?l are willing to pay good prices for prompt ship? ment. Corn? The prediction of bulls In tho market that the May .position In Chicago would ?ell at SI.50 were realized during yesterday's session when the market sold at that point. There was active buying early In the day, based on tho strength In foreign exchange ns well as on unsettled weather In tho West and small receipts. ; Western cash markets regained part of tho loss of Wednesday, although the demand was not particularly aggressive. After I the market had reached the 11.50 mark ? there was- heavy selling on resting orders and prloea experienced a partial setback. ! On the wholo the undertone was strong, j however, and closing quotations ranged i from % to 2 cents not higher.

Coffee, Santos No. 4, per lb.. 24 19 I Sugar?Prices In the market for raw i sugar were unchanged, at 11.03c for duty ; paid Centrlfs, although at tho close of ; the day the undertone appeared to show more steadiness. Early In the day It was j said that the Royal Commission had I bought a very limited quantity of Cubas 'at 3%o f. o. b. for north side, and at ! 9.70c f. o. b. south side ports, but It was ? believed that this business was the cul ; initiation of overnight negotiations. Later In the day there seemed to be a buying l Interest f. o. b. Cuba at 9%c and even as high as 10c from outside operators for March-April loading, with no firm offers at that price level. In oost and freight Cubas It was said that for New Orleans Cubas were available at 10 %c, owing to tho lower freight rate, but wero not being offered at this level for Now York. While this price might possibly have secured business bids at 10 Vic c. f. were not firmly made. Refined sugar was unchanged. Coffee futures.he early sticngin of sterling failed to inspire any fresh buying of consequence In the market yesterday morning and call prices broke sharply, or 30 to 36 points below me previous close, under realizing or liquidation, some of the early offerings attributed to European liquidation and selling by local weak bulls. After the Initial break tho market di?I much better and gradually worked up? ward on covering and buying to undo hedges by the trade. Throughout the day July was the most active month, that usually being the season of the year' when tho trade expects the greatest scarcity of coffee. Final prices were 6 to 11 points net lower, having worked, up from a net loss of 33 to 37 points. A special cabio from Santos reported futures 175 to 260 reis lower, but this seemed to have little Influence on values here. Firm offers from Brazil wero few In number but some low Santos offers were reported, but prices were very Irregular. Resales of Victoria 7s and 8s were reported to New Orleans at 18.60 sterling, or about 95 points below regular offerings. The local spot market was unchanged, with a fair demand reported.

I French Gold Held In London May Be Shipped Here Plan to Send Part of $400,000,000 Deposit to Meet Anglo-French Loan Is Under Consideration * Francs may meet its obligations In connection with the Anglo-French loan of $500,000,000 which matures next October by arranging with the British government to release some of the gold which Franco deposited in London in 1915 and 1916 as collateral against British loans to France, it was learned yesterday. Despite the fact that an unofficial cable from* Paris reported that such arrangements had been completed, i*t was said at the French Financial Com? mission that its members had not yet been apprised of. such an agreement, although it was known that negotia? tions were now being conducted be? tween the French and the British gov? ernments regarding the part each should pay in the meeting of the Anglo-French loan, which J. Austen Chamberlain, British Chancellor of the Exchequer, has announced would be paid off, and not renewed. Before the United States entered the war, when France was borrowing heav? ily from Great Britain, the Bank of France placed gold in London as col? lateral, and the British gave sterling credit to the extent of three units of credit to one of gold. According to re? cent Bank of France statements, this gold deposit in London is now approxi? mately 1.978,300,000 francs (roughly $400,000,000). ' A dispatch from Paris said positive? ly that some of this gold collateral would be freed to be used by France in connection with the Anglo-French loan, but this could not be confirmed locally. Those informed of the situa? tion, however, said it was possible that the Briti?h had agreed to have the French substitute securities for gold that they might wish to withdraw to settle French indebtedness to Ameri? can investors. Regarding reports that Great Britain and France would ship at least $200, 000,000 of gold alleged to have been re? ceived from Germany, bankers were in? credulous, and denied that they had a high probability of truth. A repre? sentative of the Bank of France here denied that France has received any ?jold from a foreign country since the igning of the armistice, and bankers estimated that Britain received hardly more than $100 000,000 of gold from Jermany In the payment of foodstuffs under the Spa agreement, under which the United States received $172,000,000. Bankers also made light of another report that $250,000,000 of gold from overseas was now on the high seas, as? serting that, in order to do this, under tho regulations of the underwriters, it would be necessary, to send a flotilla of twenty-five ships.
