Good ordinary sold at l8c; strict do at
| 1914 and 1890, the latter an outside figure:
low middling at 1874 1879 and 19c, the last
! for high style, but not strict; strict do at
| 1875, l9 and 1880, and middling at 1914 and
| 1880. These figures show that during the
day low middling and strict low middling
| commanded at times equal prices, buyers
of the former being willing to pay the price
| of the latter rather than miss the purchase
| There was some demand for strict good
ordinary, which commanded l8Ac, and in
some cases 1880. We heard of only a
limited amount Of average good ordinary

there was some inquiry for Liverpool and
