MANCHESTER, Jan. 25.-The Gudrdidn says:
| Concord between buyers and producers re-
! garding prices is almost as distant as 1t was
| fortnight ago, although sellers have generally
| made substantial concessions. The cause or
the difficulty principally is the uncertainty as TO
| the amount of the American cotton crop. EX-
| port yarns are fairly supported by November
| and December orders. Although some spinners
are anxious for fresh business, they are rarely
so pressed as to be compelled to make decided
| concession in price. There is poor demand for
| yarns. There have been few moderate sales of
| cloth for India, but otherwise the sales have
been unimportant. Heavy goods are quiet but
| steady"

| Green & Co. s report on cotton futures says:
! Business continues rather light and as rule
| fails to extend beyond the limits of the room,
| the outside element appearing to be in waiting
| mood and unwilling to enter upon new deals at
present. Variations in price are consequently
| quite narrow and afford no clear trading mar
| gin. On the whole, however, the undert one TO-
day has been fairly steady, and after breaking
| off portion prices stiffened on the steady dis
| appearance of offerings and finally closed very
wen supported at 2@3 points above last even
| ing. Small receipts Of actual cotton also had
| some influence, especially after it was discovered

CHICAGO. Jan. 25.-There was no great activity
on Change to-day slow dragging decline in
the prices for wheat and corn was checked for
time during the morning, but the reaction
soon came to an end. A decrease of 100000
bushels in the amount Of wheat on the ocean
| passage caused wheat TO open little higher,
MAY being up 160L4e at SIC. From that figure
it advanced to s214 a s&8sc, and under free offer
ing again reacted to about SEC About noon the
local crowd who had got long the market
began dumping their holdings, and caused MAY
to break again to s1Ssc, where it closed Corn
was without special feature to-day trading
being almost entirely local. A somewhat frmer
feeling prevailed, however, influenced mainly
by covering by local shorts May corn opened
1sGb14c higher at 52346t521sc, advanced to 53c,
