MANcHEsrER. March The G,tdrdian's com
mercial article says; THE tone of the market
Is steadier. though the fall in eastern exchanges
has checked the tendency toward improvement
consequent upon firmess in cotton. The de.
mand for India was also checked. because the
supplies needed before the summer rain there
have been already provided. and there is hest
fancy to provide further ahead. Little business
Is being done for China. South America pur-
chases steadily There is little inquiry for
shirtings. Medium and best are very much de-
pressed. Fine bleaching for China is difficult
to sell. Some qualities of printing cloths are in
better demand. Lower makes are depressed.
Heavier goods are steadier, but slow. Yarn is
slightly steadier. Firmness checks business.

New YORK, March 23-Hubbard, Price &
Co. g cotton report says: Futures in Liverpool
closed 2-64d higher than they did yesterday.
This was surprise to many people here, and
it was a still greater surprise that instead Of
responding to the much cheerful tone of for.
eign advices, our market opened at decline Of
from 203 points The cotton sold. however,
was chiefly for account Of believers in lower
prices, and after pressure from this source was
relaxed, more strength developed Quotations
gradually crept up to 97c for August, this
price having been established by o'clock.
slightly easier, aud declined about 4 points
from the highest figures touched. Depreciation
was plainly the result of the bear attack. The
struggle between the two opposing factions in
specialties was more distinctly developed at the
close to-day than for some time past"
