The movement was checked by the
religious observapces OF the day, the
banks being closed, or only open for
special business, and the suspension OF
market kilograms from New York and
Liverpool. Many parties, in fact,
withdrew entirely, and only few
buyers came forward willing to go on
at previous rates. Under these circum-
stances the business, limited as it was,
proved to he quite as large as was
generally expected. We noticed but
little anxiety among factors to realize,
and it was difficult to buy Low Mid
ding at our inside figures. On the
other hand some buyers reported prices
a shade easier.
