that England was still mistress or the

EXPORT DEMAND
STEADIES COTTON
Prices Recover Thursdays Loss
and Close with Net Gain
of 8 to II Points.

The cotton market was very quiet
yesterday. and fluctuations were some
what irregular, but reports Of better
demand from exporters gave prices a
steadier tone, and part Of thursdays
losses were recovered. The close was
steady at a net advance Of 8 TO II
points, with October contracts selling
around 1890, compared with 1881, the
low point Of Thursday and 10, the high
point reached on the rally Of Wednes-
day.
Liverpool made a relatively steady
showing. and the market here opened
at an advance Of > 70 II points.
Houses with English connections were
again good buyers. rejecting a further
re duction in the straddle short interest,
but Now Orleans sold some cotton
here, while there we're scattered offer
ings inspired By the fair and warmer
weather. Prices eased of in conse-
quonce, with active months sagging
back to within 3 or 4 points Of Thurs
days finals during the middle OF the
day, but no aggressive pressure de-
Neloped. ana the market rallied later on
the bullish weekend figures, the larger
spot sales reported in some Of the
Southern markets and covering. Clos
ing prices were within a point or two
Of the best.
Private cables reported a quiet mar
ket in Liverpool. with no disposition TO
press cotton on the market. The
weekly figures showed further falling
of in the stocks Of American at both
Liverpool and Manchester, and the
strong local statistical position is
doubtless an important factor in the
ruling Of the English market. II is re-
ported that ocean freight room has
been booked quite freely from New
York for Liverpool with a decline in
the rate TO Sl.7b per hundred, and it is
the impression that the movement TO
replenish diminishing raw material
supplies abroad has been encouraged
by the easier freight situation. Do
nestle spnners, however. are under
stood to be holding off, and speculative
buying is held in check by the beari5h
view Of new crop progress.

PRICES OF GOODS
WORKING LOWER
Demand Not SO Urgent-lndus-

Prices Of raw materials, and in some
ca@5s of finished products, are reported
lower by the commercial agencies IN
their weekly reviews of trade. This is
accompanied by quieter demand, and,
though most industries are far more
active than usual at this time, trade is
said to be entering a midseason period
