cause, the sole change being the prohib-
ting OF the sharing or dividing Of dam

Summary of the Print Cloth Market for the
Past Week. and the Outlook.
Special to the Gazette.
FALL RIVER. MASS, Dec. 1.-THE
print cloth market closed steady with q
fair demand for 64x64s at cents for
January and February delivery. The
mills have seen fit to tie up over one
half of the production of the
looms for January at prices
ranging from 8 5-l6 cents to 3 cents,
with the majority at the latter figure,
which is the closing price. Mill men re-
gard the situation with spirit of sub
mission, but there are few who feel any
satisfaction at the outlook. The sales,
although the largest in months, have not
decreased the stock at all, and is back
again q: the same figure it was several
weeks ago. With 575 600 pieces OF
goods held here and the mills selling
almost no spot goods, there is
little prospect that printers are
going TO buy ut n figure
