Tomorrow New York mills bleached mus
lin will be advanced to 21c, and Wamsutta
to zoe. For a fortnight past we are aware
these two popular makes were sold ahead
of production, and thought the former
would be advanced to 221c, but it appears
the agents prefer sales close on shore.
This conservative policy will keep general
trade in check, and prices from advancing
until the demand regulates value.
