CINCINNATI, Aug, I3.
One of the chief characteristics of our leaf to-
bacco market has been its uniform tone and
strength. This uniformity has been Its prevailing
feature for the past two months, and one reason
for this is the general demand that embraces all
grades that are offered, and any variation of prices
noticed has been the result OF poor class OF
grade of offerings put on sale, which were no crl-
terion to base quotations. as the poor quality nOtu
rally reduced the demand, and failed to show the
actual strength OF the market.
The market this week has developed about the
same features OF strength and tirnness shown last
and more especially during the early part of the
week The sales at auction have shown Il good
general assortment of Leaf suitable for both plug
and cutting purposes, and few hogsheads of fine
cutting leaf ranged high assoc. Fillery goods OF
good color and decided character touched outside
quotations. There was also some improvement in
the demand for smokers, but not enough to change
quotations.
