WOOlcrls

Drifting with the tide appeared to be
! the attitude of the woolen trade last
week. Expected fall openings have
been further postponed. Some sellers
of overcoatings and lower grade suit
ings say their fall offerings will be
ready about the middle of the month,
while mill agents for fine worsted pro-
ducers in the mems wear end say they
will not open their fall selling season
before February. Uncertainties as to
the proper procedure in making new
prices is said to be responsible for
some of the delay. While labor costs,
yarn prices and raw wool prices argue
Tor higher quotations on finished fab
| RIGS, the possibility that further ad-
vances will check distribution is a fac
tor of Importance that is being taken
into consideration.
Activities in the women's wear end
OF the woolen goods trade were
brought to a minimum by the impend-
ing labor difficulties attendant upon
the beginning Of the spring garment
manufacturing season. Cloak and suit
manufacturers are showing little in
terest in new goods now Most of the
mills producing fabrics for this trade
are booked with orders until the END
OF February. Some new offerings were
expected this month, but the labor
situation in the garment field may
change present plans.
Prices, even in the face of inactivity.
were. maintained more firmly than Is
usual at this period of the year,
Furs
The fur trade passed the turn of
the year without slipping a cog in
the grinding out of higher prices.
With the exception of skunk. prices
OF nearly all American furs in the
first hands showed an increase during
the week. Trappers are demanding
higher prices as the season progresses
and some of the larger dealers have
| called in their field agents from their
purchasing trips for the time being.
Movement of the new catch to the
collection ccnters and the auctions in
New York and St. Louis appear to be
lighter than usual. Shipments of fure
to the London auctions also are sub
normal, according to agents of the
London fur auction companies.
Retailers are swinging into the tail
end of the winter season with some
reductions to clean out their stocks
The price cuts on coats are smaller
this year than usual. The fact that
the women Of the country have de-
manded fur coats rather than neck
pieces has left more of the latter in
the hands Of retailers, jobbers and
manufacturers than usual.
Opinions in the trade differ on the
outlook for the spring. Some believe
there will be a repetition of big busi-
moss in small choker scarfs to 20
with tailored suits. According to some
