The Guardian, in its commercial article.
says: The market shows much frmness.
Inc sales have been small. Producers feel
strong with orders in hand ana the upward
tendency in cotton. Buyers Will not concede
their terms, and therefore the demand is
light. The position of sellers Is decidedly
stronger, and there is steadiness in all di-
rectiOns.'
