Weekly Financial Review
By Associated Press

New York, March 27.-Active trading in speculative shares was resumed on a broader scale this week, the move ment continuing to center, however, in specialties of the motor group, also oils, equipments and steels.
 Gains among some of these issues, which rose and fell in bewildering com fusion on frequent profit taking, were of substantial proportions, and in sev eral noteworthy cases new high rec ords were established.
 The advance was in large part trace able to relatively easy rates for call commitments, demand loans ruling between and g per cent, though mounting at one time to higher quota tions with continued firmness for time funds.
 Another important factor in the ad- vance was the strength of remittances on London, which rose vigorously even Lefore 1t became generally known that heavy imports of gold to this coun- try had begun.
 A large consignment of the metal is already here, according to reports cur rent in shipping circles, but the inflow which was supposed to bear close rela- tions to the payment of the Anglo French loan maturing next October, may reasonably be expected to assume impressive proportions.
 Industrial conditions, as indicated by several favorable annual reports. pointed to high pressure of activity in many lines of trade and in the invest mont situation offered encoura cement in the heavy subscriptions to new cap- ital underwritings

New York, March 27.-Activity in the unfinished cotton goods markets was less pronounced at the week end with prices holding generally firm on the highest basis. Advances were an- nounced in some lines of cotton duck during the week, basis of so cents a pound being established by one larger producer of hose and belting duck, and 225ac less , off on wide lduck. One of the leading lines of wide sheetings, sheets and pillow cases was withdrawn from sale and the goods placed at value. An advance is looked for
 Blcached sheetings have been selling at slightly higher prices following the advances in gray cloths. The quick ened retail trade has stimulated inquiry for novelties and fancies in wash fla brics for early delivery. White goods continue firm with the demand steady. Comforts and bedspreads have been sold freely for late delivery. Damasks have sold very freely, the scarcity of linens being acute and of famine character.
 Eastern mills have not been willing to accept business very freely beyond June unless higher prices are offered owing to the growing belief that still higher wages will be demanded when the present six months scale expires Yarns have held steady. Knit goods have shown improvement.
