COFFEE-C E. Bickford's circular gives the
receipts at this port thus far this year at
27,9S9 bags. against 1928 bags during the
hands @ were 4e,s bags against e [G 1rse The
stock in first hands, FEBRUARY was 81 4s7
bags. against 21. 496 last year The circular
says:
January business was brisk during the first
three weeks prices being quite firmly held
for those classifying above. Since then. say
after January p. a decidedly weaker turn to
largely curtaied all demand and has impaired
among buyers that feeling of uncertainty as to
the future which naturally prompts them to
operate cautiously pending further develop
ments.
''As heretofore. the Coffees most largely
! dealt in have. been those ranging from 715c to
10c. unwashed salvadors being especially prom
inent at &c to 9Ac for old crop and 91ac to
| 9sac for new good current quality closing to-
day at 9Hc. with buyers but no sellers at Sc.
Washed new crop Of all growths have also
| sold rather freely when not held above lilo
|
that. figure, principally for shipment overland
and foreign export
"The continued scarcity of low grades still
enables a premium for them out of proper
| ton to the nearest competitive Coffees and has
induced considerable reselling between second
hands. ETC.. whenever profits We're visible.
Prices for Brazil Coffee in New York have
receded since our last issue (January . 40
each for No. Rio and No. Santos. and
! .75 to SO for futures closing steady. The
| decline is ascribed to the continuation of re-
ceipts at Santos upon larger scale than had
been anticipated. which fact induced heavy
liquidation Of options by speculative holders.
