The Journal of Commerce reviews the cof
tec situation as follows
During tho post week a better tone has
developed In the coffee market especially in
speculative circles and prices have gradu
aliy hardened The strength has appeire l
p come largely from the lliiropean markets
Pilvatc advices leport that sentiment ap
pear to bo chousing agalu among some of
the trade In Europe and that there ha

trade
demwa
f c r tn1s hglnnlng to be
cully discussed In the vorfee trade more Is gen the
advancing tendency to the rate of sterlliiK
exchange In Hlo The latest official quota
tion received from Itlo Is 12 U3 M and
there appears to be a general impression
among tboso who follow this feature closely
that tbo vatc will advance lo at least 13d
which should prices for coffee In the con
suming markets remain on their present
level means a decidedly low mill tefs price
In Urnzll
Owing to the damage which the growing
Itvaxll crop suffered during tue forepart o
the season some of the trade argue that the
coming crop will not only bo a smaller one
but that It wilt be late It Is said however
that advices have been received during the
week from Itrazll saying that new crop
coffee will begin to arrlvo at itlo and San
tos at about the beglunlng of lulv
The movement of the Urnzll crop has con
tlnuca heavy although during the past two
or three days there has been a modeiate
falling off In the receipt especially at San
tos Attention however has been called
to tho fact that should the arrivals at Hlo
and Bantos for the remainder of the prcs
ent crop ycjr c < iuj1 those for the same pe
riod lust season the total arrival at ulo
and Santos for the crop vear 10011002 win
be 15200000 bags
In tho speculate market the feature or
tho past few days has been the steady buy
ing by tha commission and brokerage boj e
ot Lehman Bros This firm It will be re
called was a conspicuous seller last Decem
ber and January of September and Decem
ber coffee contracts at In the neighborhood
of 7c per pound In fact their sales were
reported by Fome of the trade as amount
ing to several hundred thousand baga And
were gencinlly supposed to be for shoit
account The buying which Is now deel
oping It Is supposed by many Is to cover
these contracts Thus far the selling has
been only scatteied due largely to the fact
that Brazil has been Arm and higher and
the bear Interests have not been able to
purchase supplies to ad > antage In either
Hlo or Pantos and sell against them heiv
Outandout extensive short selling on the
present low basis of prices has not been au
attractive ventutc even to the bear Inter
ests consequently pilocs have gradually
Improved dcsplt > the fact that the statis
tical position continues a decidedly bearish
