COTTON CLOTH FIRMS
FIND ACTIVE DEMAND
Requests for Stock Styles Aid
Agreement on Prices.

Fall River, Feb. 21.-There was goou
business in the print cloth markets OF
New England last week, and the VOL
ume Of business that WAS put through
wa, very encouraging. II seemed 'na'
buver, were sorely in need OF the
goods. and this condition, coupled Win
tho insistent demand for practically ali
lines made by the cotton manufactur-
ing concerns in this city. made II easy
for the mill men and buyers to come
together on prices.
As has been the case lot seVera,
weeks past, the taklngs OF sateehs cru
,wills were large, and those mills max
ing these constructions nave dohe
verv good business. The call for spe-
cialties and fancies made Of medium
count warns was moderately good ana
. stable business was put through. In
fact nearly all lines Of merchandise
that are generally used by the trade
received considerable attention from
BUYERS. The margin Of profit between
the cost Of cotton and the selling val
ues Of cloth is very encouraging, nd is
much greater than on some lines very
itCcubls.
The situation among the fine goods
concerns is most cheerful, and some OF
the mills are sold up on certain lines
for several months ahead. Every day
fine goods treasurers receive inquiries
from New York, Boston and other large
textile centres. asking mills TO take on
contracts for certain construction, out
this is impossible. One line that has
had very good run is tne cotton
voiles. A mill in Fall River and an
other in Rhode Island have enjoyed
very good business in voiles, and con-
siderable profits have been made.
Lenos and marquisettes have sold In
large quantities, and orders have en-
gagged the looms OF New England FOR
long time ahead. The total sales for
the week are estimated at 10000 TO
100000 pieces, Of which about 10000
pieces were spots.

Montclair. y. j. Feb. Cajoled
into attending meeting with the
promise that they were TO be allowed 20
speak, advocates Of military prepared
ness in this town were virtually
muzzled during an snti-preparedness
harangue. Then the meeting was ad-
journed and the doors locked. Conse-
quently, the preparedness contingent
have signed public protest against
the conduct OF the pacihsts. Il reads:
The public wa. invited 10 attend
the meeting and the privilege extended
20 those present TO ask questions Mr.

citation of preparedness, unworthy, for
the most part. OF serious attention. II
called for answer.
What was our surprise, then, when
