WEEKLY REVIEW
OF COTTON GOODS

New York, August 9.-While there was
some weakening in the prices asked for
late contracts on gray cottons for printing
and converting, the general position of
the cotton goods markets remains sub
stantialy unchanged from a week ago.
Staple ginghams, which had been out of
range with some other cloths, were re-
duced nc a yard for basis of 6Ac for
standards New business on these cloths
has come forward steadily with a tendency
to favor the wider goods.
OF the 115,000 pieces of print cloths sold
at Fall River. $4,000 pieces We're for spot
shipment Nominal prices on regulars
have been marked down 1sc, but there
has been no trading. Bleached goods hold
steady with shipments of old orders con-
tinuing full Ducks is in steady demand
for quick shipment. The trade inclines to
the belief that cotton may be lower In the
fall months.
Stocks continue low in jobbing and re-
tail channels and buyers admit that If
present uncertainties are soon removed the
markets may grow firm very suddenly.
Prices rule as follows:
Print cloths, 2S-inch. 64x64' 5, 3ssc. 64x60s.
3lsc. 3SH-inch 64x64s, 47sc and SC; south
