COMMERCIAL.

THURSDAY svESFSe, november ~, l8N
CoIroS-The sales today summed up $500
bales at firm prices, with the advantage occa-
siona]Iy mere in favor of factors. We quote
low ordinary at 10 a lie; ordinary at II a BE;
good ordinary at l4l4 @4asc; low middling
at l434 q l5c; middling at Isl, l5asc, and
strict middling at "A l5s4c.
The demand was active and quite gen
cral, twenty-five brokerage houses partici-
pating in the business, but checked by the
moderate extent Of the supply during the
morning. after which the opening of add
tional samples impaired more animation to
the movement, resulting in sales to the
above amount, which is the heaviest this
season, being l40O in excess of the largest
previous business. In some cases BUYERS
paid fraction higher for desirable lists,
but in others the advantage was slightly on
the side of the buyer. Strict good ordinary
sold as high as Ia ll-l6c, both low middIine
and strict low middling at 14ls and l5c and
barely Liverpool middling at l5ls. The
only change in our quotations is in strict
good ordinary. which We advance lsc.
