m.nohester Cotton Goods Market.


MANCHESTER, September 11-Durlng the en-
tire week the market has been fat and depressed in
tome With plentiful supply OF cotton, oWlDg 70
large arrivals from India and other sources buyers
of calicoes have manifested an insurmountaole un-
willingness to give the high rates to which THESE
goods had been forced up by the long continued
Speculation in the raw material at Liverpool 10
the middle of the week the depression was severely
felt and there almost an entire absence OF ousi-
ness for all quarters and stocks OF yarns ana ciotns
having begun to accumulate considerably, spnners
and manufacturers were willing to have met the
feeling among buyers to the extent OF "a per pouno
on yarns and Sd. per piece on clotns-sucn as iuS,s
so inch shirtinQs. This concession, however, has
| not had the desired effect and manufacturers are
driven in self.detence to resort to more hmitea
production since to be caught with heavy STOCKS OF
cloth made of cotton purchased so exorotanty nign
yould be to incur an undesirable r1sk
There are offers making for cloths, but at prices
40 much below even the concessions wnicn sell
lers are pre- ared 10 make that business appears iCr
the present all but impraciicable; and. as the week
closes the margin Of differences between buyers
and sellers seems to increase. The oners ior nome
trade warns are in some cases iuuy Hd peow the
rates required by spinners 10 some extent yarns as

repute have been made at I'd q fb decline on lues'
davis rates. Among other classes OF Duyers Id the

business doing ana W u prices oeConinb c'eAJ eNJ
