market for this article has ruled exceedingly dull
and the transactions in all grades have been linn

had the effect to check operations, and shippers
are not disposed to purchase unless at reduced
figures, which factors refuse tOaccept at present.

is accommodating somewhat, and all grades arc in
fair supply The sales for the week are as fol-
