MARKET is
BADLY CROWDED
Local Warehouse Storage Rooms
Are Full to Overlooking
With Tobacco.

The storage rooms of the three
local loose leaf tobacco ware
houses are full to overlooking and
IL is said that about one thousand
hogsheads of tobacco are now
ready for shipment. So full are the
rooms that there is tobacco yet
standing on the floor that has been
sold but there is no room to place
same. Every effort is being made
by those in charge of the ware
houses to secure cars and C. & o.
Agent j. c. McNeal is doing every
thing in his power to assist the
warehousemen in relieving the con-
gestion and we are informed that
cars have been promised at once.
1t will take between seventy-fve
and one hundred cars to nave the
tobacco now in the city. With good
weather now the tobacco would b.
rolling into Mt Sterling in a golden
stream and we hope that the efforts
of the warehousemen to secure
cars will be successful as, the to-
bacco sales mean a great deal to
our merchants.
To date there has been sold
about four and one half million
pounds for an average of $25.1S
per hundred. The sales last week
were led by the Robertson house
with an average of $29.S2, the
Farmers house second with an av-
erage of $3.50 and the Whitehall
third with an average Of $2493.
