MANCHESTER, March 1.-THE Guardians
inquiry. This led to more business among the
neediest holders. The greater portion of the
orders, however, are impracticable. There is
much inquiry for yarn for home trade, but it
seldom results in business. Export yarn is
quiet. There is little inquiry for coarser kinds
and prices are easier. There is a small demand
toward lower prices. Some of the better makes
of India shirtngs are able to hold quotations
fairly. Offers for lower qualities do not induce
manufacturers 10 again start their looms. Ad-
vices from India and China are unsatisfactory.
Merchants do not promise extended opera
tons. Smaller Eastern markets send fairly
steady supply Of small orders, South Ameri-
can traders are more optimistic. ="

| The Suns cotton review says: Futures
| opened dull and slight decline followed, then
came a smart advance, closing firm at SGl12
points advance from yesterdays closing prices.
Shakespeare makes one of his characters say
some people are born great some achieve
/ greatness, and some have greatness thrust
| upon them. Our bulls to-day had the advantage
| fairly thrust upon them; neither the slight inn
| provement in futures at Liverpool, nor the
| active spot market there, with sales of Il, 900
| bales, stirred them to action. New Orleans,
however came to tine rescue with good deal
| of spirit. Futures we're not only buoyant in
that market but her operators sent a good
| many buyers to this market. These set our
| bears buying to cover contracts, and prices
made considerable advance very easily.
| Southern reports were generally pretty good
| Spot cotton was very firm, but not quotably
| dearer."
