blocked Sale, In DnnyilIc

DANN1lLE, VA, December THE
sales OF leaf tobacco have been block ed
all the week except Monday hence the
figures for the weeks operations are
not now available.
The quality this week has not been
as good as usual. There has been Il
much larger proportion of common to-
baccos in the breaks than there has
been severa! weeks previous. The
weather has been harsh and the to-
baccos more or less mut:latcd in con-
sequence In handling. No,withstand-
ing the heavy receipts, prices have held
firm, in all grades, although nothing
mas brought the extremely fancy prices
OF last week. when upwards OF 20 cents
was paid for wrappers. Occasionally
one or another o. the big buyers has
dropped out OF the market for a day
or so in order 10 catch up" in their
factory operations, but they are hard
ly missed as far as the cncct on prices
is CONCERNED. The harsh weather now
prevailing will no doubt curial re-
ceipts somewhat next week hut it Is
expected that sales viii be large never
