MANCHESTER, Oct. 31.-The Guardian saws:
1.-THE market is lethargic. The opinion pre-
long been fighting strenuously against the
slightest advance, and buying with extreme
caution, must have greatly reduced their avail
able supply. It is believed, on the whole, that
the markets of the world, which are usually fed
from Manchester, have been for some time
shortening their supplies. The inference is
that the way is preparing for renewed general
demand soon. Producers, therefore, are not
willing to entertain proposals for forward con-
tracts at the low rates offered, although they
readily accept the best prices obtainable for
goods for immediate and early delivery. The
demand for export yarns is extremely poor.
SpinnerS whose orders previously taken are now
fast approaching completion are anxiously con-
sidering the prospect. Inquiry in the cloth de-
partmentS is scanty. Sellers nowhere did Tues
days average business. Few India orders are
in the market, but merchants are not inclined
or are unable to pay current rates for goods in
quantity. The same conditions apply to ship
pers to small foreign markets. Home houses
are buying little"
