"0pp1s' DRY SAoDs REVIEW
NEW YORK, Jan. Tat the close Of the
slightly advancing tendency shown in gray
cloths bleacheG goods and Heavy goods gener-
ally. There has been vefN slight improve
ment in the price situation OF niue combed yarn
cloths for spot delivery and retaN-ers have been
in the market vainly seeking job or 90
mestics for January sales Stocks cuer-
prompt shipments OF goods not due before AN
uary Is have been common. The ngurekl OF
exports for the IL months ending in November
show that shipments for that item are within
2 ,0OO, 600 yards of the shipments in 1902 which
was fair year, while values are 100000
higher.
The miscellaneous export markets continue
inviting, 1 900 bales having been sold to Red
Sea markets recently and about 500 bales for
India. China trade is dull Colored coarse
yarn goods and heavy piece dyed goods are we'll
conditioned for two or three months to come
because OF steady sales to the manufacturing
trades. Duck, brown sheetings and drills are
firm. Wide print cloths went a little higher
during the week. Staple prOints and ginghams
are well under order for 80 go days. Mana
facturers have been less inclined to sell at
the low prices because of the firmness with
which good grades OF cotton are held at the
SOUTH The jObbing trade has been season
ably quiet, but anticipatons Of fair Janu-
airy trade are bright.
