Silks
Manufacturer of Silk
UnderaUeor Sell Output
Far ahead

Sustained activity characterized the
trade yesterday in silk goods. Lead
ing jobbers asserted that their princi-
pal desire was to get increased con-
signments from the mills. Other
branches Of the silk manufacturing
industry are we'll booked ahead with
orders. Prospective outputs Of wo-
mems silk underwear have been sold
to the end of this year, and many of
the manufacturers have taken sufi-
cient orders to keep them busy during
the remainder of the year. But it was
admitted that limited quantities of
silk gloves still can be supplied to
buyers.
Just now trade in silk veilings is
only fair, but the leading dealers ex-
pect the demand to broaden as the
fail season approaches, when women
will again take to wearing wells. 1t is
said that dress nets are in active call,
the manufacturers of dresses being
the largest buyers. Sales of silk nets
together with the unprecedented
activity in demand for sheer dress
fabrics are ascribed to the probable
resumption of social festivities on a
broad scale during the coming fall and
winter months. 1t is reported to be
easier to sell silk dress nets at $1.65 q
yard than it was to get customers to
buy them at $1.00 while ago. There
is an extensive demand for silk laces,
especially the 80 called novelties.

Leather
Foreign Buying of Sole
and Other Leather Is
Unprecedented

Receipt of heavy orders for the ex-
port of sole leather of all grades has
resulted in an increase of cents a
pound being made in the price of good
oak bend grade during the last few
days. Tanners of this leather declare
that the buying for export is tremend-
GUS and is much beyond that of any
other time. In some quarters this ac-
tivity on the part of the foreign pur-
chasers is said to be due to specula-
tive tendencies abroad.
Scandinavia has been placing large
orders here for leather of all kinds
during the last few months. The sup
plies now controlled by Sweden, Den
mark and Norway are said to be far in
excess of what is needed for normal
use in those countries, and tanners
here believe that this stock is being
accumulated abroad in anticipation of
big business with Germany when
conditions permit.
For some weeks past sole leather
has been gradually advancing in price
in the local market, following a long
period of inactivity. With a contin-
uation of the large orders for export
tanners predict that oak bends now
selling at s1.0S pound will be quoted
around $125 by the end Of next month.

Textiles
Cotton Goods Trade Is
Actire in Nearly All
Departments

Spirited buying Of unbleached cot
ton goods, large sales of remnants and
a satisfactory demand for most of the
various finished products, save heavy
weight cotton duck, kept the sellers
of cotton goods busy yesterday. job
bers complained that the mills were
unable to supply goods enough to meet
the urgent wants of the trade, and it
was stated that the prospects of in
creaslng production were not especially
f1atterlng owing to the shortage Of
skilled mill workers Buyers from
Cuba and Porto Rico placed good or
ders for remnants.
Leading converters Of ticking assert
ed that they booked enough orders to
keep them busy making shipments
also was stAted that most of the mat
tress manufacturers, the chief users Of
the ticking fabric, are running their
plants or an overtime basis inf forder
to supply the demand for bed fittings
Print cloths, which some of the mills
seemed reluctant to sell in large vol
ume, advanced to 16% cents yard, an
increase Of u cent over the preceding
day, while 68-72s went to 1917 cents.
Late in the afternoon the mill agents
were asking II cents FOR 64-60s and
1914 for 68-72s, and it was intimated
that the mills would only take orders
for limited quantities of the latter
construction.
M. c. D. Borden & Sons late yester-
day notified the trade that their full
lines of American and Pilgrim prints
had been advanced half a cent yard.

Direct Cotton Shipments to
Japan From Galveston
Business Ne,Os Bureau
Special COrrespondeucs

~ GALVESTON. Tex, June 27.-
Tadashi Mukai, of New York, repre-
senting large banking interests of
Japan, is making tour of Texas with
the view OF obtaining first hand infcr
nation in regard to the cotton crop
and the methods of handling the staple.
During his visit to Galveston he made
an inspection of the port facilities and
conferred with w A. Johnson, vice
president of the Galveston Commercial
Association.
Mr.. Mukai said the large Japanese
cotton importers preferred having the
staple shipped by boat direct from,
Galveston to Japanese ports instead Of
being sent by rail from Texas and the
other Southern states to San Francisco
and Seattle and thence by boat across
the Paciiic. The rail rate from Texas
to the Pacific Coast is $1.2O the 100
pounds and the water rate from San
Francisco to the Orient an equal
amount, he said. Provided a market
can be found in Texas for Japanese
products direct shipments will increase
in the future and additional japanese
steamship lines will establish regular
sailings between Galveston and Nip
ponese ports, he said
