MAScHEsrER, Feb 1.-THE Guardians com
mercial article says: The prominent feature
of the market is the continued exceedingly
poor demand for India and China, which is the
worst for many years. There is a moderate de-
mand for minor foreign and home markets and
this prevents entire stagnation, though it does
not meet production. The stoppage of looms
Is increasing. especially in the Blackburn and
Darwen districts. Manufacturers hold steadily
TO former rates for such sorts as were engaged
or where the new demand is fair. Otherwise
they are easier There are a few imports and
inquiries for export yarns Sales are chiefly for
the continent and the Mediterranean. Cloth is
dull. There is a moderate inquiry for better
finishing makes, but rarely for quantities
Common kinds are dull and irregular Dhooties
are mostly well under contract. Some manu-
the Levant and for home trade are well solo,
and prices are firm. Lower qualities are dull -

The SUMS cotton review says: Futures
were variable, closing without decided change.
Speculation in cotton wobbled good deal to-
day. weak opening was followed by an ad-
vance of few points in response to much
stronger reports from Liverpool, for our market
does not seem to have been fully prepared. But
the rally was soon followed by dullness. and
after the last call prices became weaker. 1t was
clearly q case of inanition. Markets await the
course of the southern markets; how they will
stand up under the weight of the bales yet to
come forward is the question, and on its solu-
ton the future of our bulls and bears depends
Port receipts for the day are small. owing, it
was explained to the failure Of the railroads at
New Orleans to report because of the Mardi
Gras festivities. Spot cotton was quiet"
