SALES RESUMED;
DARK SHIPPING SHOWS UP
All the Leaf Market Stnrt on I'irm
md Active After Holiday
season.

with tho exception of Danvillc. South
Virginia. all of the tobacco markets
have rcsuIned business after a long
drawn-out holiday. Owing to unra-
rorabIe weather conditions. the re-
ccipts Of the loose leaf on the mar
kets that resumed last week were
light. In Richmond the total sales
OF leaf amounted 10 only 100. 900
pounds. composed mainly OF the sun
cured goods with a large proportion
OF lark shipping tobaccoS mixed In.
The market WAS very active. and
all grades of the s]un-curcd sold a
shade higher than before the Christ
mas holidays. This was especially
true If wrappers, which were scarce
in the offerings and very much sought
after by the buyers.
one OF the dealers in the dark ship
ping tobaccos says he never saw these
goods as high III the Richmond mar
kc, as now. and has never seen quite
such eager demand for them. Lues
that went begging at 81 10 $3.50 a
year Z readily brought from $3.50
never got higher than SIS per 100 last
from slo.50 To Sill. and long leaf that
went u year ago for S?.ao 10 Sill. easily
brought from So 10 Slh last Friday.
There arc now - half-duzcn eager bid
dor" for the dark shipping goods on
this market. making the competition
mGch more noticeable. and the indica-
tons are that these types Of tobacco
viii be higher still when the season
gets well under way.
