The sales during the morning were never
theless to o fair extent, at prices showing
rather less steadiness. In fact. in some
cases BUYERS claimed to have bought 45c

factors assumed renewed confidence, and the
business for the rest of the day was at tull
prices, but without any quotable improve
ment. Low middling sold at lo44c, and
strict do at 1924 and 1873. Liverpool mid
ding sold as low as 1870, but the general
asking price for middlng was 1874.
