THURSDAY EVENING. July 16. 1899.
Corrosive have again to report linn
| ted business in this market, the movement
having been restricted by the scarcity OF
the offerings as well as the unwillingness of
| buyers in view to the rather discouraging
accounts received from Liverpool and New
York, to operate Unless at figures materially
below the asking rates of factors. The sales
summed up only about $50 bales, taken by
several parties, principally tor the compile.
ton of previously unfinished orders. The
market Is too unsettled to admit of reliable
quotations which we are consequently
forced to omit.
