ToBAcco-The only transaction reported
to-day was hhds. The amount on
sale is estimated at 1926 hhds As we re-
marked in our last report, the market
closed on Tuesday with great diversity OF
opinion in the trade with regard to quota
lions, which the recent limited business has
left unsettled The following, however, ap
proximates as nearly as possible to an aver
age of their views: Frosted and factory Tugs,
nominal; low to good planters 7{@10, low
leaf l1@121, medium leaf 134 OILS, good
leaf l6I@18, fue leaf $4,000 Received
since last evening, none; exported, none;
stock on hand by our running statement, 1902
hhds.
Messrs. VIM. G. Meier & Co., of Louisville,
in their annual report, dated September l,
mote an irregular market in the previous four
weeks, with sales of 2074 hhds, of which 1902
new, prices showing q net decline for the
month of 1c per ID.
They also say: "Crop prospects have i'm
proved IN as much as the secessation of rain
storms and floods have checked further de-
struction, but the rainy season unfortunately
rol1o hu IN thor
the growing crop has made but little progress,
requiring now late fall to mature" They
estimate the damage in the GAINESVILLE dis
trict Of 20@25 f9 cent but that an average
crop will be saved in Paducah and calling
districts, damage 25@30 per cent, and will
fall short of an average; Green river
district is damaged 80 to IS per cent, and yield
10 per cent less than an average. In Ohio,
near Indiana districts are damaged 35 to 40
per cent, and the crop two-thirds to three
fourths of an average and in Missouri and
Illinois, damage is 10 to 20 per cent, but the
crop large average. "These," says Messrs.
Meier & Co. "are an estimate of actual loss
of damage beyond recovery. but we are, so
far unabla to approximate the diminution in
weight as we'll as the injury done by frenching
and field-fre."
FREIeHTs-The market continues extremely
dull. The receipts of cotton have been so
light that as yet the offerings are limited
