The local market opened this morn
ing with fair inquiry, chiefly to supply
eastern spinners, factors ~manifesting
a disposition to accept prevailing quo
tations with more willingness than
during the early days of last week.
A conspicuous feature Of our market
this season has been the steady de-
mand for domestic spinners, who con-
tinue to show an earnest desire to lay
in their supply for the season, from
the cream of the crop, instead of wait
ing until late in the spring and then
being compelled to take the flag ends
ofthe seasons production, at perhaps
advanced rates over present prices.
For the past ten days buyers for for
eign account in this market have been
idle, an actual loss of from two to
four dollars per bale Starring them in
the face, when they compare our
local prices to those prevailing
in Liverpool, On the other hand
buyers for American spinners' account
have paid within from } to &c of New
York figures, owing to the desirable
character Of our present river valley
crop, the superiority Of its staple rem
dering it especially suited to THEN
tastes and requirements, Out of 90
0C) bales, sold in this market during
the past four weeks, over 10000 bales
have been taken by Eastern spinners
This, too, in face of the. fact that The
total exports to date, for the present
season, foot up 1927, 58S bales, ar
excess over last years shipment:
abroad at this time of 26S, 7S6 bales
