tinue to quote ordinary 17l@l84c; good

2lac; middling -@224c; strict mldd.ing
| 225@22lc and good middllng 23@-c.
| The market opened with more inquiry for
| the North, and although operations were re-
| stricted by moderate supplies, and factors
asking fraction above the views Of buyers,
vet the sales summed up the amount noted
above at prices showing some irregularity,
| but no quo.able variation. One or two par.
ties reported that they had bought at easier
| rates, but all others stated that the market
| was firm at yesterdays figures. Liverpool
| middling was reported as low at 22c; strict
at 22Ic, and strict low middling at 215c,
| which would indicate a decline, but others
concurred in stating that there was no
| change.
