Manchester, March 14-The Guardian. in
Its commercial article, says There has
been an increased inquiry Tor China cloths,
but the offers have often been unacceptable.
Many manufacturers are urgently in need Of
fresh orders and greatly regret their refusal
OF orders, Which cannot now be renewed eX-
cept upon much lower terms Other manu-
iacturerS, however, have sufficient work 10
enable them to decline unsatisfactory orders
hoping for higher bids or better condition
OF trade soon, The reported ending of the
war in Brazil has stimulated hope. The India
demand Is quleter. owing TO the decline in the
price OF exchange. Yarns are slow with the
tendency in favor of the buyers"
