It was taken a* notice that the previous estimate of area was to be Increased. This and tbe weaker lone at Liverpool, which market opened ''uS' s .i<i lower, and the io.-al dec iue in corn made 'he trade bearish. Despite the weak ness In Liverpool. th- Fr.-nch markets were flim r. as there were indications of continued Fiench buying at the seatoard. TbeNorthwes;ern , receipts showed a marked falling off.
