GENERAL REMARKS-In flour the market
was dull. as has been the case for some time
past; receipts were large. aggregating 14s6o
bbls. Buyers were coy and holders generally
were firm, except on low and off grades.
Corn meal was quite active and easy. Pork,
being in small supply, was firmer than the day
before. Dry salt meats were exceedingly scarce
and in active demand. This was the case in
bacon.
At the Sugar Sheds the receipts were fair. the
demand good but easier prices.
In cotton there was a rather irregular feeling
in the trade until toward the close,:when the
market ruled steadier and 50 closed with only
moderate business transacted. 51oo bales being
sold.
COTTON-This market had quiet opening,
but throughout the day the tone of the market
inclined favorably to sellers: Buyers found
some difficulty in finding lots suited to their
wants and for that reason the sales were limit
ed to only 500 bales. The market closed steady
and unchanged.
