FOREIGN DRY GOODS.

MANCHESTER, March THE Guardian,
in its commercial article, says: "The
| market on the surface remains quiet and
lifeless. There is no sign of real activity
in respect to actual business, yet there is a
steady under-aow demand at regular
rates, which is sufficient to sustain prices
There is rarely the slightest symptom of
of weakness Indian orders do not in
crease seriously. Inquiries for staple
goods are constantly received. The
limits, however. are 50 low that
little business is practicable. There are
few sales of Importance. China mer-
chants are inclined to buy, though seldom
in large quantities. There are few trans
actions The offers are below current
rates. There is quiet but steady demand
from the South American and other minor
foreign markets at previous prices, which
IS sufficient to prevent pressure to sell.
Homo houses continue to be cautious, yet
they are unable to make any impression
on prices. Manufacturers are more in
clned to lessen the production than to ac-
cept offers at prices below those recently
paid. The inquiries for export yarns is
poor China and Japan spinnings are
firm, although there is little fresh de-
mand. Spinnsrs are sufficiently for
titled with orders to refuse low offers.
The continental demand is slow.
There are few sales. Prices are steady.
There is quiet but steady home demand
for small quantities. Buyers are doing
little in forward contracts Cloth is very
quiet but steady. BUYERS are unable to
place orders under Friday rates, although
occasionally they have pressing orders on
hand. India and China staples especially
shirtings, are firm. Makers of the widest
widths are able to command full pricess.
India fine and fancy goods are dull.
PRINTING and othar fiDi ching clntho ara
firm. Producers consider prices extremely
low. A moderate business is reported.
There is a fair inquiry for heavy goods for
export at former prices, though rarely in
large quantities. The home demand is
weaker; prices are steady.

control the -four output. Millers repre-
senting Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Arkansas,

that they have formed any trust and while
this is true in the light that profits will
not he divided, it is equally certain that q
combine has been formed to control their
-four market. The same authority has it
also that the winter wheat market is IN

tempt will be made TO manipulate the
winter wheat market. A rule regarding
commissions on -four was also adopted.
