mercial article says: THE market was quiet

are not benefited yet by the rise In exchange, in
consequences Of the prospect OF extensive silver
purchases by the United States. India mer-
chants are hopeful of Improvement, and some
are inquT1ng more freely. Prices are steady,
with letter inquiry for export yarns. Sales

the moderate sales, consumers have little be
lief that prices will be maintained. Spnners
mostly firm Shirtings steady. There is little
business for India. Fine and fancy goods are
well sold: also most of the favorite makes of
