been operating during the week, and receivers have
been ee sellers at last weeks prices. The range Of
Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania hecces have been
mostly from ~ soc, the latter price for Ohio Xxx and
above and in few instances as high as Sic n was
obtained for very desirable lots Of the same grade.
The new clip Of domestic is passing rapidly into the
hands Of Manufacturers. Some leading mills that were
running almost exclusively on Australia last year
have stocked up largely with domestic since the hrst Of
