MANCHESTER. March 20.-Cloth quiet and
without quotable change in prices. Yarns
steady. with but little doing. The Guardian,
more cheerful feeling In the market. Inquiry
was slightly more active, and was freely met
at previous prices. There was no attempt to
secure an advance. The position of producers
is not much Improved. The better outlook Is
due more to the pacific aspect of foreign af-
exchange"
