MANCHESTER, April 23.-The Guardidn says:
The market was quiet and steady in most
departments. Few sellers made progress equal
to that of the 18th inst. Buyers were less dis
posed to make fixed contracts. Current orders
for early delivery were readily placed. Last
weeks work strengthened sellers. and yester-
days easing had little effect. Producers do not
forget narrow margins. and are not inclined to
press sales. except when fresh sales compel
them. The active India demand has SACKED,
but there is still fair inquiry. Slight yielding
would increase sales. The same conditions,
though in lesser degree. prevail in the China
trade. The demand for other foreign markets
is moderate. FirmneSs is an obstacle. but there
is a fair business The home markets are buy
ing carefully and in fair quantity. The demand
for export yarns Is inactive. Business yester-
day seldom reached the full amount Prices
were mostly steady. Home business was slack.
India shirtings were steady. There was fair in
quiry for fine and fancy goods. Best printers
were firm There was les inquiry for heavy
goods, but the market was stea1y."

The SUMS cotton review says; Futures
a vanced smarJly in the morning hour. IL is
the unexpected that happens. The bears had
another illustration of the wisdom of the notice
in machine shop: Don't monkey with the
buzz saw while it is in motion Silver and
| Liverpool took an upward turn together, aud
rash youths who sold cotton here yesterday
were SIT climbing for it at a reckless pace. just
before the last call the bulge came TO an end
aud moderate selling to realize caused loss OF
part of the early advance. But there was nc
| more selling short, at least not MUCK. Distant
months attracted more attention. Weather
| reports from the south we're fairly favorable
The most conspicuous feature was the fall oil
needed rains in Texas, from whence complaints
OF drought have been coming. Cotton on spot
was fairly active for home consumption at fail
prices"
