Interest in piece goods is solely confined to the auctions and to a few purchases from stock. No new business can be attempted while the situation remains as at present. At the start of the week: the auctions showed little change from the preceding sales, but at the Yusafong auction a gratifying im provement was teen, and it almost appeared as if a market had actual-hal Cotton ly been established. In view of this the events of next week will be eagerly watched, because after all the political situation, as yet hardly warrants any "great confid- encoat the-auction mentioned dyed goods, were in excellent de mand, with the exception of the northern qualities. Owing to the strengthening of the Nlogpo and local markets heavy Greys were firmer. Where speculative buying was in operation Whites predomin- Lated. ·
