The market opened with a fai9 GnqIir
and moderate supply, especially of desiT.
able cottons, which soon assumed an up
ward tendency, and were sold to some eXs
tent at figures 18c higher than could have
been realized on Saturday. Later in the
| day, however, factors met the demand more
freely, and the movement became quite ami.
| mated, resulting in the comparatively lib.
eral sales noted above. Throughout the

ment and the scarcity of staple kinds

to good ordinary at l7&c; good ordinary at
IL and 1850, strict good ordinary at 1874
and 1880, low middling at Isaac; strict low
middling at 1873, and l9l8e; strict low mid
| ding to middling at 1918 and 1885, and mid.
