Expect Higher Prices

Although Wholesale buying of silks
has eased off a biz, prices continue
firm and in some cases are being ad
vanceed daily. Jobbers who hold fair
supplies Of silks feel that higher prices
will be obtainable and are not shading
prices now to force business.
The largest users of silks are still
in the market, but the smaller retail
eers and manufacturers who buy only
two or three pieces at a time have
dropped out for the time being. 1t was
the activity Of these smaller buyers
that gave business its brisk tone dur
ing the past few weeks.
No changes were noted yesterday in
the raw silk market. Japanese, Can
ton, Shanghai and Italian grades re-
mained at their high levels, with mills
buying sparingy and FOR immediate use
only. No relief from the acute short
age Of spun and thrown silks Is in
sight. Throwing plants have sold their
future product as far ahead as they
dare, and some grades are impossible
to obtain now.

COTTONS-Prices
Firm Despite DulIness

Despite the usual Saturday dullness
in the gray or unfinished cotton goods
market. prices remained firm. and IN
some cases hardening tendency was
noted. Brokers feel that tie downward I'd
sweep begun on Wednesday and precini-
tated by the high call money rate Is
over. The standard $3.50 38H-inch nr,nt
cloths were held at 1871 to lsN cents =
yard. A feature Of tho market yester-
day was the larger Offering Of or
CANDIES, lawns and fine combed warn
goods, which have been almost imnos.
slbie to obtain hitherto. Conside cradle
activity was reported in these. Sheet
lngs also were in fair demand.
Big distributors of finished goods still
comb the primary market for merchan-
disc. Colored goods are exceedingly
scarce, and commission merchants say
that any small offering, even remnants
or seconds, are quickly snapped up at
full market prices. Jobbers generally
appear to be better stocked in colored
than In white goods. The explanation
lies In the fact that the big mills max
ing white goods are on a slower pro-
ducction basis than are the converter rs
and printers of colored materials.
