CoTToS-The sales to-day embraced $3.50
bales at an average advance of 4Gac. We
now quote low ordinary at l5l@l64c; or.
binary at 173@l9ac; good ordinary at 204
@20lc; low mddhng at 21@2lac; middling
at 22i@-c; strict mddiing at -G224c, and
good mlddiing at 23@234c.
In giving the. above figures it is proper
to add that they are not as high as the views
of some buyers nor as low as those OF
others, but accord with those OF the major
ity. For example, one authority puts good
ordinary at 20@205c, but others either at
2O4@2O4c or 20I@204c, and 80 with regard to
low middling, while one authority quoted
at 20i@2l4c. most or perhaps all others
quoted at 2l@2l1c. We have put midding
at 22i@-c, but most buyers quoted at 2240
22ic; and while we have quoted strict mid
ding at -@224. and good mlddhng at 2a@
23l buyers reported purchases OF the for
mer, with good staple, at %. The demand
WIS active, but the movement checked by
there being only moderate supply on sale,
unless ut a etill greater advance. The con-
trolling element appeared 70 be the course
of the Liverpool AID New York markets,
bat the views of factors we're alec raised by
delivery contracts.
