MANCHESTER, May 21.--The Guardians re-
port says: There was fair inquiry, but bust
ness hardly reached Tuesdays average. Pro-
ducers were firm, and prices were hardening
Much business offered at Fridays rates was re-
fused 1t is not believed that the hardening in
cotton influences buyers, who regard only the
condition of distributing markets. 1t is, how
ever, the motive for producers to raise quota
lions. There was full inquiry for India, and
some incre aSe in sales. Orders that were pre-
vlousy refused were returned with higher
offers, and they sometimes executed.
There was little inquiry for China and Japan.
The demand from other foreign markets was
variable. There was fairly steady but more
active inquiry for export yarns. The firmness
of sellers renders most of the inquiry imprac-
ticable. Business for Japan was Irifiing, owing
to the sluggish condition of the markets in that
country. Cloth was strong. India staples were
SO fully engaged that producers were unusually
unconcerned regarding further engagements.
Best printers were firm Finished goods were
quiet. Plain, heavy goods were Slow

The Suns cotton review says: Futures,
though dearer for the day, were very unsettled
throughout, up and down as the tide of specu-
lation swayed to and fro. Liverpool made a
very decided advance, and what was more to
the advantage of the bulls, showed larger
business in spot cotton An early advance was
followed by brisk selling to realize in expecta-
ton that Liverpool woul1 react little, but as
the final report from that market was strong,
there was renewed buoyancy, in which July
came within ore point of reaching 12L5c. In
the last hour there was renewed depression,
with good deal of realizing. Weather reports
from the south were generally favorable to the
young plant. Cotton on spot was moderately
active for home consumption, and prices were
16c dearer."
