New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-05-25

The market opened with very limited
supply, offering very little scope to buyers.
In fact, yesterdays heavy business had
pretty fully taken all desirable lists from
factors tables. Late in the day, however, the
latter opened more samples, but from the in
creased stringency of their pretensions for
those kinds which were most in request,
buyers were unable to go on, and the sales
were confined to the limited amount noted
above. The supply of barely good ordinary
and the poorer qualities was ample, but
these descriptions were rejected, The sales
included good ordinary to low middling at
2I34c; strong low middling at 225s and 2234 G.;
strict low middling to middling at 23c, and
stTict middling at 23lRe.
