The Cotton Trade. Practically no change bas taken place in the United States, where the markets still remain olosed.

There is no fear, therefore, of a shortage of supplies, but the Osaka jour mal goes on to say that English, American and Danish malts aro inferior in quality to the German and Austrian producte, while Germany and Austria also furnish
