| MANCHESTER, Dec. 81 The G,tnrIfnn's COM
| mercial article says: THE inquiries are mostly
| for small quantities The market is steady and
strong. Reports from Liverpool that the prices
| OF cotton are hardening determine spinuers to
| hold Tor tull rates There are a few important
| inquiries for India. There is a moderate in
| quiry for smaller foreign markets. Progress in
| yarn IS poor. Exporters are not disposed to
buy IN quantity at current rates. There is little
| progress in cloth. There is some India business,
| chiefly in light goods There are some inquiries
for China staples, but sales are small Best
| printers and other high reed furnishing cloths
| are steady. Most makes are well engaged.
| Common makes are steady. The demand for
| heavy goods is moderate"

The sans cotton review says: Futures
| opened higher, further improved. presently de-
| clined, closing barely steady at an advance of
| sos points on near and 1(d13 points decline on
late months from yesterdays closing prices.
| Inc old year went out with field day on the
| Cotton Exchange Transactions were large
and fluctuations wide. Liverpool camel points
| dearer, and gave our bears a bad scare They
| rushed to cover, and quickly carried prices up
| or 10 points, Some of the bulls loaded I'D for
a further rise. The rise eliminated soon after
the noon call Then came selling to realize
| and some of the more courageous bears Jumped
on the market with both feet. Down went
prices, distant months losing more than the
early advance. Relatively large receipts at the
| ports were an element of weakness in futures
| Southern markets were more active and in
| some cases dearer Spot cotton was &c dearer
| but quiet"
