Mr. P. Eduljee says in his Report, dated Hongkong, February 1st. Nothing of interest bas occurred in our market during the past fort- night. A quiet but steady business has been experienced, and some 8,100 bales have gone into consumption on the basis of Inte quotations. The demand continued to favour special superior tickets which comprise the bulk of the settlenients. COTTON PINCE GOODS- Excepting a few trifling fluctuations here and withstanding the heavy decline in exchange, as there, values show little or no appreciation, not- importers having in view the near approach of the native holidays were anxious to make the most of the demand while it lasted. At the close the market has again become quiet, and it would now appear as if the business of this nativo year has almost come to an end pending the revival for clearance after China New Year (19th instant).
Local Manufacture:-Sales of about 450 bales No. 108. and 128. of the Hongkong S. W. and Dyeing Mills, at from (89 to $88 and $91 to 90 respectively, are reported.
Japanese Spinnings:-New business is impracti- cable in the continued absence of supplies, but we hear that the market in Japan has declined in sympathy with American Cotton there and some forward contracts, aggregating 500 bales on the basis of $110 for Settsu No. 20s., are reported.
Raw Cotton:- The market for Indian cotton continues to drag with no real improvement in the demand, and rates for almost all descriptions market. Sales reported are some 487 bales Bengal are easier. The local Mill is entirely out of the at from $221 to 234, leaving a stock of about 1,600 bales. China descriptions aro steady, and about 300 bales Ningpo and Shanghai have changed hands at $25. Unsold stock about 500 bales. Quotations are $18 to $23 Bengal and $23
to 25 China.
Exchange on India shows a heavy decline of 4 points and closes weak to-day at Rs. 149 for T/T Rs. 119 for Post. Yokohama 14 per cent discount.
