COTTON GOODS REVIEW.

Cotton goods markets continued strong
during the last week. with prices rising
TO still higher levels. Buying has been
checked by the inability of mills to fill
orders and OF merchants to supply all OF
the goods called for. Many large offers
of export trade have had to be declined
through inability 10 make deliveries.
Print cloths are up about cents n
yard. Some lines of branded bleached
cottons have been advanced 2la and
cents yard, staple tickngs 10 cents a
yard and many lnSs OF brown and col
ored cottons are higher. Several lines
of wash fabrics have been opened for the
1920 spring and the application OF bay
ers has been active.
The attendance OF wholesale and re-
tail buyers in the markets is much
larger than usual. Made up goods ap-
pear TO be as scarce as fabrics. Many
lines OF MERCHANDISE are priced above the
fixed price level OF the war
period and number OF prices for yarns
have been run above the. Government
levels 1t is the impression OF selling
agents for large mills that conditions as
10 buying will grow worse as the fall sea-
son advances. owing to the slow produce
ton In mill centres There is a'wide
variation in quotations due to the SELL
ing from second hands to reap profits
accrued from the rise.
Prices are as follows: Print cloths. 2S
inch 6i164R, ~ cents: 64x60s. llh
cents; 3sia inch. 64x84s, 1915 cents
