COTTON 000DS.-Ilexenzerza, Aran. 24.—The
market for shipping yarns today has been stronger than
at any time previously this week, and • considerable
amount of business has been doing at advancing prices.
' There has been more disposition among buyers for India to
operate, and they have been willing to give rather fall
prices. Buyers for Germany have also purchased more
freely, and they were active early in the day in picking up
any lota which were offering at reasonable prime. On the
whole, this class of buyers have operated rather free.y,
and the market closes very steady, with an upward ten-
dency in velum The quotations for first-class yarns in
branded were lsd. to 16d. for twelves ; ltd. for twenties,
171. to ltd. for thirties, and 170. for forties. There has
also been more than an average business in home trade
yarns. Manufacturers and other buyers of these yarns
have held aloof • good deal for several weeks past ; but
the symptoms of a renewed movement in Liverpool have
brought them into the market for their immediate 'ante.
Prises are from id. to id. per lb. higher than on Tuesday.
Cotton and yarns having advanced, the quotations for cloth
have moved in sympathy with them in the same direction,
and there is decidedly • better feeling in this branch of
the market. But there is no isdication of an increased
disposition to do business on the part of buyers. Merchanta
and large buyers—those whose operations alone could give
much impulse to the market in the present condition of
accumulated stocks—were up to yesterday a,erse to any
movement, anU it is said • similar feeling prevailed in
London. Since then the long•delayed telegrams from
India and China are to hand, and are of a more favourable
tendency, but not so favourable as had been hoped, and
probably there is nothing in them to change the policy of
operators. The offers which sellers of cloth have had
y are more numerous, but as yet show very little ire.
provement upon the rates offered earlier in the week,
But holders of goods are sanguine of • limited increase of
the demised, and are tolerably tenacious in exacting their
advanced quotations. The actual business today has not
been large in any description of cloth. There it rather
more doing in coloured goods, in consequence of recent ad.
vices from Louth.
