NOTE ADDRESS.

Mosers. James F. Button & Co., Ltd... Manchester, in their Weekly Market Res port, dated Sept. 13 state:The prices for American Qurrent during the week are Sopt. 5th 7.04, 6th 7,034, 8th 7.11], fik 7.90, 10th 7.14 and 'to-day at noon 7,17, Spot Mid American. being quotesi-Sept. 5th 7.35, 8th 1.38, 8th 7.31. Och 1.02, 19th 87.44 and to day as noin 7.51.

We seem to be in for a speil if vis fent Huctuations and. t the moment business in done under extreme difficulties Onu-day a sharp advance and another day a sciart. decline in Cotton prices cause, a consider. able amount of concern about the fature and the Market will want carefull watch- ing for some time to come.

The first Conrus Barenu ginning report of the mexmon wan insued last Monday, and the return, which is made up to Sept. Tet, shows an **KToys1 of 714,070 bales jimed nginst 731 09 bales last year, 771,0* in 3011 and 2 3,000 balos in 1910. This yone's aggregate is the largest on record for this period, exceeding the proceding largest in | 1911 by 34.90 baler. One would have expected that a report of this kind would have caused some essa in prievs, but on the tracy New York Spot advanced 50 puluta that day-these record figures wezu disu regardoa and Tho advance was caused in the first place by the postponement of a pro- position to tax transactions in Cotton Futures in America, which preposition had ' caused a weakening in ; ricus last week, and further by reports of continued deteriora) tion throughout the Belt nuring the pat fortnight

To the onlooker however it seems to be quita evident that there will be a shortage in the growing crop, and the large ginning return is accounted for by the fact that the orop is early, and this has probably boun caused by the dry weather-an the other) 4 hand the demand for the spun and woven article may play a very important part and it is co this account that nur friends must

In the Cloth Section here there is of course practically nothing doing-ofers from India and the smaller markets are all anything from five to ten per cent too low, and consequently are not likely to be booked at present-in many instances the highest prices of the year are being quoted by well-sold manufacturers this week. The general nowe from China and the Balkan States is improving, but the are not buying ---Blocks in China ate reported as being low so that the outlook from there is still what it bas boen for some considerable time, hopeful.
