million yards, as compared with June Of last
year. there was an actual increase of three and
half million yards in exports to all other
countries. Yarns show q falling of Of nearly
one and half million pounds, but this is en-.
urey due to decreased shipments to India.
This heavy decrease in the shipments of
both goods and yarns to India is clearly the
result OF the recent financial panic, which
made it almost impossible for firms of the
highest standing to make negotiations But
confidence is now returning; the bank rate
was Yesterday reduced from 81 to ~ cent;
The Indian markets for goods, owing to the
recent small shipments, have an upward ten
dency, and give promise of fair profit on
purchases now made in Manchester; it is
therefore highly probable, should there be 10
further failures Of consequence, that business
at Manchester will soon right itself, and pres
emit excessive stocks be well cleared of.
The stock Of cotton held by English spin
ners we now estimate at IS 900 bales, against
l62, 900 last year and 16O, coo the year before
at same date.
