ply offering, and the enhanced pretensions
OF factors then checked the movement, but
still the sales summed up $50 bales. Thirty
cents was paid for good ordinary Quoted
yesterday at 20 929Al and SIC for strict low
middling, Glow middling quoted yesterday
at 9093Oa and middling at 3l3 These fig
ures show increased irregularlty, and an ad-
vance caused by the scanC supply on sale
and the necessities of Northern buyers. IT
market is nearly bare of midding, which
can not be quoted under 323c, although that
may be above the limit of pending orders.
Low middling is quoted at 3l4, but buyers
have been compelled to pay fraction more
for strict classihcations.

SUGAR AND MoLAssEs-The movement in
round lots is still restricted, but the gener.
al tone of the sugar market is somewhat
better, while TIL retail demand is lmprov
ing. We note a sale of 40 hhds CUBA on
private terms. Louisiana sugar is retailing
at l53c " 10; Louisiana fair, to prime
at l51@l5c y ID, and yellow clar.
flied al l6l6l6Ic. hhds of the latter sold
at these figures yesterday. There is still no
dem nd for large lots of Cuba molasses, but
a small retail business is being done, Hold
ers Of molasses, however, are firm in their
views.

view of yC C-Tay there have been no ar
rivals from the West.

ToBAcco-Since our report of Saturday
| he market has been dull but there has
been some inquiry, and later in the week
more activity is anticipated. The European
demand, which was quite active for some
time, seems to have almost ceased though
we are informed there is some inquiry at
present for the Bremen market. The sales
