There seems to have been fair

changed hands. In spite of the fact
that none of the sales reported were of
unusual proportions, healthier demand
for tobacco for immediate consumption
seems to be the order of the day. Con-
necticut Broad leaf wrappers and Con-
necticut Havana Seed wrappers have
been somewhat eagerly inquired for, but
the supply is about exhausted. The
buying movement in Ohio is said to con-
