THE TOBACCO MARKET.
Buyers Activs and All Grades Find
Beadv Rala

The rscetpts Of tobacco at Lgnchbure
continue to grow less each week. being only
508. eco pounds the East week. when the Of
fertngs were not generally In a. high order
al for some tifne past. Yet much OF It was
rather on IN condition from having been to0
high in order or By having more or less
mold on II. Prices continue rather lower
than they were some weeks ago. with Hight
receipts and better condition. Present Quo-
tatsons are a. follows: Luga. damaged. -
to $6; lues. medium. @5 to 30; Ings. Eood.
So to 81; ieaf medium. 81 to ~: leaf. short
n. 30 To 81; leaf. good. 80 to I'll: leaf. nne..
81 TO $15; leaf. wrappers. N6 TO &25
At Danvilie the Receipts were fairly
heavy. The offerings were somewhat Inn
proved in condition. but still soft. There Is
also an Improvement In quality. but wrap
pers OF certain desirable types have been
scarce. The offerings were very serviceable
and we'll suited for home manufacturing.
Prices are firm, and the buyers very alert,
and the result Is that nearly everything
offered is Kept up to a fair price. The
spectators are resumfng activity and show
more disposition to buy than they have ex-
hibited for some weeks The hogsheni
market Is reported to be quite active, hoid-
ers showing disposition to sell at mod
crate prices. Well-informed warehouse
men express the belief that there is less
tubace0 IN farmers hands than IS ReHerdiiy
supposed, and the expectation Is that tho
balance OF the crop will be marketed rap
idly, there being little occasion for dissat-
isfaction with prevailing prices.
At South Boston leaf tobacco breaks have
nor been quite as heavy the past two weeks
as prior to that since the new year. the fall
ing off in pounds being due to the terrible
condition of the roads, which prevents the
farmers from bringing more than half the
usual quantity in their wagons. Total
SAILS the past month foot up 1.T89.63G
pounds. making the aggregate 9,IeB.566
pounds, for which the sum of Sg04 45
was paid. being en- average of $9.32 per lBU
pounds. The average price for January
was $10.57. including all scrap and dam
aged tobaccos offered. Comparing present
figures with one year ago. this market has
advanced nearly 2,ol0009 pounds in amount
sold. indicating considerable growth.
At Durham, N. c., the leaf tobacco mar
ket has been brisk the past few weeks and
prices aqe firm, with upward tendency.
Fully 100000 pounds of leaf tobacco were
sold there the past month at an average OF
13 cents per pound. About 70e9,006 pounds
have keen sold to date at an average OF
11& cents, and IL prices keep up. as now
seems quite probable. the remaining por-
ton of the crop now held by the planters
will soon he offered cn the market. The
weather has been favorable for burning and
sowing plant beds, and much of this work
is Being done
