TOBACCO DEPARTING NT

lODAOOO DEL An L III En- l .
RICHMOND, Va. August IA change
in prices for the better may come later,
but 10 date there has been no percepti-
bic higher values for tobacco on Change.
but the market stJl remains quiet. with
sales Of some old filters at auction at
reasonable prices. We hear Of one or
two high priced new wrapper sales to-
day by the single hogshead. Beyond
retail business there is nothing reported
of importance.
10 is admitted on all sides. however.
that the tobacco field have suffered
heavily, but such is the effect Of former
deceptive outcome in tobacco that few
are willing to trust to their own cOnvic-
tlOns as to this most unusual state Of
the crop. la any event good Virginia
manufacturing leaf, on account of very
moderate old stocks, a small new crop.
and a seventy per cent planting would
have stood firm on its own merits.
There is q lack of all speculative
movement in the trade. and the weed
only moves as it is needed from hand to
mouth. Holders show their faith in
the future by holding at full figure,
fortified by interior market advances
and the assurance Of the inland owners
of a very inferior and short crop out
look.
The Danville. Winston, y. c., Dur
ham and Reidsville manufacturers are
making fine aud increased showing in
plug and smoking, which is encourag-
ing, while the Richmond district for
passed SIX months shows a large
volume of business. We must, there
fore, incline strongly to better prices
for brights in the near future, and every
little buying woald start the ball
whatever the crop may be in other
grades. classes and countries. good
brighis will and must stand on their
merits, and we can see aught else but a
bright future before us. This much we
have began urging to predict, though
we are still mindful OF possibilities that
may improve the crop. while there are
many more probabilities that it will be
much further damaged.

csipis and deliveries Of leaf tobacco M
