Our market has been pretty well giutted
with tobacco during the last Two weeks,
and the indications are that receipts VIII
even be larger the coming week. Prices
for common tobaccos. though low, have
been fairly well sustained. Medium
hoavy-bOdiod leaf Is I'm good demand and
selling well. Long shipping lear Is being
contracted for hv large number of buy
| ers. and is decidedly the most active
grade. Considering the lack OF body,
values look exceedingly high.
