The market opened with rather more con-
fidence on the part OF factors, but without
auy pretensions to higher rates. and only a
moderate inquiry from buyers. Later in the
day, however, the former somewhat relaxed
their claims and the latter came forward
with more spirit, taking 1900 bales at about
previous rates, all good cottOns showing
continued frmness, but mixed lists, DUSTY,
stained etc.. ruling rather easier. The sup
ply was moderate, and the demand better
than for the past two days. but still mainly
confined to a few buyers, and otherwise
showing but little spirit.
