AMERICAN STANDARD or CLASSIFICATION.

The market opened with fair inquiry,
Int With few indications of mCcn activity,
and only moderate business was reported
during the morning, but as factors evlnced
a willingness to meet the demand more
freely, buyers subsequently came forward
with q better spirit, and the days sales en-
braced the liberal amount noted above.
The prices were untayoraolv anected curing
the morning by a decline IN foreign e1-
change, which was only partially counter
acted by an improvement OF 81 0332c IN
fntures at New York, and although later
disnatch from that market gave revised
nnotations showing q reduction OF sc IN
ordinary and 1-l6c in good ordinary, and an
advance of l6 in middling and the higher
grades, prices continued to rule IN favor OF
BUYERS throughout the day, except Tor some
descriptions which are IN scant supply anu
steady demand. The lower grades exhib-
tied the greatest :rregularity, and ruled the
most in favor of buyers.
