Stiffening in the Price Of Cotton Pre-

Manchester, November 2s.-The harden
ipe in the price of cotton this week has
stirened the stand taken by the producers
and has hRmpered the operations OF buy
ers; Its advance, however. was maintained
chiefly owing to speculation.
Offerings from India for fabrics were IN.
important. There was slightly improved
demand for the better goods OF shirtings
and the reports In this connection we're
generally encouraging. A fair business has
been done lately for Calcutta and Bombay
and there were also occasional transactions
for China. though no improvement In the
outlook in the latter market has taken
place. more active business was done
on south American account.
Yarns were steady and the inquiry for
that class Of goods was firm. though this
hardening tendency has had the effect of
impeding business American spun ouali.
ties were in good request and IN many
instances were well sold ahead. 1t is ex.
pected that the spinninrs from the higher
grades OF American materials will be
dearer in the near future.
