TRADE NOTES.
From the DRY Goods Guidr

Milan is coming to be one Of the great cot
ton textile markets OF the world. Twenty
Eve years ago Italy was one OF Englsnd's
best customers; now she is one OF her strong
est competitors everywhere.
A ine old minister carpet is OF present in
the carpet factory at Wilton, where it is being
repaired after having been in use for fully
$50 years.
It was purchased by the present owners
great grandfather. Carpets bad been made
at Wilton for $50 years, but the trade Ian
Euished and finally stopped. No wonder.
when a carpet lasted $50 years.
The ancient city OF Lyons. the third city in
France. with q population OF 5OO,OOO. vies
with Milan in importance in the worlds silk
industry. No less than 40.OO0 people, men,
women and children, are employed In the
factories
It has a commercial school In which are
enrolled students from all over the world 10
study weaving OF silks and velvets. The city
also supports a fine municipal silk school
which 10 open only to the youth OF the place.
The finest qualities Of silk and velvet are
woven on hand looms and the average wage
paid to weavers 10 90 cents day for men and
SO cents for women.
Standard indigo blue prints have been ad-
yanced to six cents q yard. How much
higher will they sell for the coming fall2 The
prices Of all cotton goods have advanced
largely, and at the present level the demand
continues TO such an extent that the looms
OF the country are practically under the con-
troll of orders throughout the entire year.
Itwould be utterly impossible at the present
time TO enter the market and secure a sum-
cient quantity Of cloths to keep an average
print works running from now TO January I.
1908. There being no speculation In cotton
and no corner" In the cloth market. the
present situation in printed goods Is entirely
due to q demand far in excess OF the ability
OF manufacturers TO supply.
Curious ways the Japanese merchant has
OF doing business. A special agent of the
United States Government who IL now in
Japan Kives some illustrations. The buyer.
he says. makes no payment until the arrival
Of the goods.
lin the meantime the market has dropped.
the japanese will often go to the American
and intimate that he Is not prepared TO stand
ali the loss and that the American should
divide the l0sa with him. though TO do so
might wipe out all the profit on the trans
action.

contract. because when they make a contract
they don tat least In their minds--Rbsolutely

The Indian club is a unique institution

Tor all the men and women in the neigh

.he sun begins to lose its power, nearly
every one moves clubward. The glaring
white road, until then occupied only by an
occasional bullock handy with its native
driver, suddenly becomes the scene Of the
Utmost animation, dogcarts, carriages,
ponies, and bicycles all following one
mother in the same direction.
Play and chat are at once the order Of
he day. While some indulge in croquet
or BadmintOn, others fill the tennis courts
which are provided with a number Of little
brown faced boys who run about and pick
ap the balls. When the light fails, two
groups are formed in the compound; the
women sit and gossip over their iced drinks,
Ehlle the men cluster around the peg table.
Finally, the club building itself rs entered,
