At the start shorts took advantage of the | lower prices and covered freely. Congested conditions of the December delivery caused a quick advance in the price of that optio other months rising in sympathy. The reviw: of bullish sentiment was aided by small re- celpts in the Southwest. On the upturn May sold up to $111.
