MANCHESTER TRADE REVIEW.
MANCHESTER, Sept. 25.-The Guardian
in its commercial article says:
There Is more inquiry in most of the
departments. Occasionally it is sufi-
cient to allow of prices, which were I'M
successfully contended for last Friday,
being attained, though usually where
business is done both buyers
and sellers have yielded.
Some orders coming forward
indicate that the distributing markets
are slowly following the upward ten
dency of the Manchester market. a
few favOrite articles, chiefly shirtlngs,
have metSwith moderate sale for China
and japan at full rates. Fair orders
have, been placed fer Bombay and
Madras. The demand for minor
foreign markets has varied. Some
merchants are able 10 pay current
rate for moderate quantities, chiefly for
South and Central American markets.
Home markets are buying more freely.
The demand for bundled yarn is slow,
although there is a disposition
to pay current rates. Better
spinniugs are stronger. Full rates
are insisted upon for cloth for prompt
delivery. For forward delivery there is
q slight yielding in prices. Best prints
are frmest. Some makes are well sold
az are also most finishing cloths. Heavy
ana plain Goods5RFe duh.
