to-day, and consequently a feeling of great die op -
pointment has been prevalent. In the cloth-mark, :t
there has been rather more inquiry, with a more,
cheerful feeling, but still the business effected has
been of a very limited character. The inquiries
made have led to but few offers, and the impression
is that they have been intended only as feelers with
a view to ascertain prices without applying the
actual test. The few purchases reported are said to
have consisted only of small quantities. There seems
to be an almost universal conviction on the part of
buyers that prices will shortly .range lower,
and
they are consequently
still disposed Xo hold off till
a more considerable reduction has takexi place than
manufacturers have yet shown a dispos;tison to sub-
mit to. In the report of last Friday's maYket refe-

be exchanged with all that refers to hearsay evidence, or
that the protest be received.
The Court ruled that the answer must stand.

The question was repeated.

or any one else, but, as I said before, I have heard it
spoken of.
The court then adjourned at four o'clock until to-morrow.

sidered.
