that in the latter part Of the day there was
very little low middling to be had under
dc, and many authorities quoted at lao
l4Ac. The sales at 1880, however, were to
a sufficient extent TO warrant these figures
being used for the inside. The demand was
active and the supply moderate. The lowest
prices were paid soon after the opening, and
the fullest later in the day. At the opening
low middling sold as low as l324c, good
ordinary at l3i4c and strict at l3lac Later
factors realized Il a lac over these figures
The quotations for low middling on Satur-
day evening should have been 1884 014 lsc,
and net 1894 37sc, as printed.
