NEW YORK, March 29--The demand
is less active, both with jobbers and agent,
while prices rule generally steady. Oottons

channels of consumption more freely re-
Gently, but the supply is ample for all re-

what time prices will break so long as
agents permit Chicago dealers to undersell
New York jobbers.
