COTTON COODS-E1port
Bu>ing Actire in Most Fabrics

Orders were received yesterday by
commission firms and mill agents in
the cotton goods market from mer-
chants who few weeks ago deferred
purchases in anticipation Of lower
prices Not only did these buyers
have to pay, in many cases, more
money for their merchandise, but they
found they could no. obtain rs much
as they wanted, while selections had to
be made from limited varieties. That
was especially true in colored goods.
Converters and bleachers again were
active buyers Of print cloth, the firm
attitude of mill agents, despite the
smaller purchases earlier in the week
apparently convincing customers that
goods could not be bought cheaper.
Sales were made on the basis of II
cents q yard for the standard sizes.
Export demand IS reported on the
Increase. Coun.1es that remained
neutral during the war are the heavi-
est buyers and the.r merchants are
placing orders tor nearly every class

United States. 1t was auth oritatively y
stated yesterday that the export de-
mand is sufficiently large 20 consume

casion TO increase orders already
placed for spring merchandise. Re
ports of the increasing shortage Of
production were given as their reason
for adding to their next season pur-

Two exceptionally fine black timber
wolf pe!ts brought a record price of

in imitation of fox, showed by its pop
ulanty yesterday that the trade no

by some dealers with the intention. it
was said, of using it in barter with the
