| MANCHESTER, Jan. 23.-The Guardians re-
! view of the markets for the week says; Ihe
market was mostly steady, although occasion
| ally Sellers who were demanding extreme
| prices on Friday, were easier to deal with.
| Business was light in most directions, and was
| altogether much short OF the average OF Iues
| day. The large proportion of production, espe-
cially most OF India and China staples, is wei
| under contract. Producers of such goods are
| not concerned about further business except at
| extreme rates, Another mOtiYe for the tlrm-
| ness in CLOTH which is operating powerfully IN
| the departments which until lately were neg
| iected is the narrowness of margin between

| faCturers are again letting their looms lie Idle
| where orders are expiring which cannot be re-
| newed without serious loss. There was moder-
| ate inquiry for some kinds OF india staples.
| There little inquiry for China staples, but
| business in b 9TH was small. There was a mod
| crate demand from smaller foreign markets at
| previous rates. Home houses are purchasing
| more eey though still cautiously. Progress
| was made in export yarns. There were few in
| quires from India, chiefly from Madras, but
| China and Japan buyers. by their recent pur-
! chases, have satisfied their wants For the con
| tinent only a retail trade was done. Home
| manufacturers have bought in trifing quaint
| ties. Present quotations could not be reached.
| The cloth market was steady. India and China
| shirtings, especially the former, were exceed
| ngly firm. DhOoties were firm and fairly well
| held, yet there was little fresh business. JacO-
| nets are less under engagement than other India
| staples. Manufacturers complain of the poor
ness Of prices obtainable. The demand for
| printing and other finishing cloths was moder-
| ate Buyers had TO pay full prices for some
| sorts. Rates are hardening. Fancy coored
woven goods were very dull. especially those
| for foreign trade. Heavy goods were quiet,
with small trade at steady prices"
