were COO bales. Our own market opened dull

quotations had hardly varied more than 8 to q
points. During the afternoon nothing occurred
TO disturb the dullness of the market It de-
clined or points from the prices current at /
o'clock and closed steady at the lowest of the
day, 10 points under last evenings figures. The
Bombay movement for the week shows an ex-
cess of rs, 900 bales as compared with this week
last year, and this has not been without effect
on the market to-day. Southern correspond
cable at substantial concession from existing
quotations The market is in a position, the

unless speculative confidence in cotton can be
revived"
