| MANCHESTER, Feb 26-The Guardian says:
''In a few instances there have been larger
| transactions at somewhat irregular prices.
Purchases, however, appear more on account
of speculation than positive orders from dis
| tributing market This is proof that some
| buyers have confidence in present rates and a
| near revival of the demand, and also that some
| sellers are keenly pressed and want orders.
| Prices in each department for the moment are
| made more by the few who Obliged to sell.
! A regular demand exists for small quantities at
| full prices but it does not equal the supply, and
| there is therefore some weakness. There is a
| little more business for export yarns at prices
| triie under Fridays rates. Offers for yarn in
| quantity mostly impracticable. There is
| little change in the cloth departments. There is
| increased inquiry for India goods chiefly light
| and fancy. There is little inquiry for China
| staples. Higher reed printers steadier.
| Trade in low reeds is light. There is q small
| daily demand for heavy goods

The SUMS cotton review says: Cotton
futures were buoyant in the opening hour on a
stronger report from Liverpool, where it is
said, reports of scarcity OF cotton at the south
are having effect. The quantity on sale in
American markets is now $50 900 bales less than
one year ago, and the bulls assert that our
markets have already cornered themselves,
while the bears say, Wait and we shall see.'
Notices for March were pretty generally
stopped in the interest of shippers, who are
much better satisfied with cotton delivered on
contract than they were one year ago. In the
last hour the market wea kened little because
receipts at the ports had exceeded estimates"
