The innonncrm.nl 19S of maximum puces for trading in coffee fu- lures was rollowcd by actlv. liquidation In the market hero today. Tha official atate ment was that trading was prohibited above tna Dasia or .fiOc for tha current month, and in later months at advances of more than 13 points rrom the price mentioned for each snd every succeeding month. With tha mar- set dciow ina maximum flKures, the open. Ing was 4 to 11 points hipher. but nrlcea very soon weakened, with late months lead ing tha decline, as they had contained lead bulk of tho outstanding lone Interest. Thi Impression appeared to ba that the flxln of prices subject to modification from time to time by tha food administrator would materially restrict buslneas and practically eliminate specuisunn. May deliveries broke to 8.23e and Sentem bar to 8.51. and tho close was at the loa point of tho day, showing a net loss of 2 to a- points March, e.Ooc; May, 8.22c; July, S.3io; September. 8.52c: October. 8.55c: xa- cemner, S.07C.
