W. E. SCHwEPPE. Sec
IL Is very evident from lnl5 foregoing
report from the New York Leaf that
the jObbers are averse to the contract
system. There may be much said
theoretically in favor of contract sales,
but practically it appears in disfavor, as
several States have now enacted anti
contract laws, notably Missouri and
Texas, of late. There are Richmond
and Virginia nufacturers who use
contract system as a protection to
themselves and patrons, and thus claim
that the consumer by virtue of such
contract gets a better and cheaper to
bacCO uniform.
There will in due time be test cases
of the constitutionality Of these laws
coming up.
We hear il claimed that some big fac
tories themselves do not look so much
with disfavor on the law. The matter
is creating quite stir now, but will
soon settle on solid basis. Leading
brands. it is feared, will have no fixed
selling value. New brands will be and
have been started to suit the emergency

under date of June LIST. says of the
month preceding: The pressing de-
mands for hurley kept such above an
export basis, although considerable
fluctuations occurred. Bright colory
burleys were exceedingly scarce
throughout the month, and always
commanded very high prices. Old
Green River tobacco continued firm and
in active demand. New dark tobaccOs
were very firm for desirable hogs
heads of any type. but irregular for all
others. Cid dark Tugs were iluctuating,
with bat very moderate demand, and
that only at low prices. IL is estimated
that fully one-haf the intended crop is

small business having been done IN

which would be the natural
conclusion to long market
entering into period Of holidays. Our
market has been extremely dull. and as
no new features have appeared 10 inila-
ence prices in either direction traders
have avoided undertaking operations
which must necessarily be based on
local influences until "wednesday morn
ing next. Meanwhile the demand for
actual cotton. while not urgent, Is
continuous and the undesirable char
acter Of contraction is. In our judgment,
more than discounted by the difference
in price between contracts aud oven
