| ToBACCO-We noticed in our last report
that negotiations for round lots had been
pending, but that buyers and sellers were
unable to agree. We had reason, however,
to anticipate that the parties would soon
come together. To-day the appearance of
| buyer supposed to represent the agent of
| the Italian government came forward,
which stimulated the demand from others,
and the market became unusually active,
/ the sales summing up about 1872 hhds, as
| follows: 10 hhds at =, at =, at -, 80 at
=, 24S at =, 275 at =, 1913 at, and 800 1900
and 500), which we were unable to get from
| the sellers, who were bound to secrecy, but
! heard of on what we regard as reliable tes-
| timOny. We learn that prices have been
maintained, and consequently continue to
