Silk Price Trend Upward
Producers Mark Up Fine
Weaves i'm Keeping With Ravs

The silk market is undergoing the
novel experience of advancing prices
with little or no increase in demand,
Some of the leading manufacturers
have advanced prices on their finer
"eaves in sympathy with the higher
prices for raw silks, but in neither
the raw fiber nor the finished goods
branch of the trade is there any in
dlcatlon of greater activity than was
apparent last week. In fact, some fac
tors yesterday asserted that buying
was less marked as the week opened
than it was early last week
Manufacturers of silk ribbons ap-
parently are in better position so far
as forward orders are concerned than
are other branches of the silk trade.
Ribbons are increasing in popularity,
and while the retailers, garment manu-
facturers and wholesale millners are
buying only for immediate use, the
total volume of business now passing
IN ribbons is considerable.
Despite the assertions of some fac
tors in the trade that the raw silk
market has been stabilized, a certain
amount of doubt is current and it is
expected that it will take two or three

High and Low Shoes Compete
Style Trend Emphasizes Ok
fOrds as Well as Boots

Retail business in women's shoes for
fall IA is running to extremes at present
The foremost styles are heavyweight
oxfords, many Of them of the brogue
type, to be worn with wooden stockings.
or the extremely high-topped boots
which in the extreme of fashion are
made Of colored kid or satin to match
the costume. The high-topped boot is
an innovation, while the oxford is
noldover from last year, when they were
popular with the younger women. Re-
tailers are not particularly confident
that the extremely high boots will have
long run this year, and many of them
have stocked only sufficient Quantities
to "sweeten" their lines. The extreme
in height so far is the 12-inch boot. A
1ew retailers are advertising these. but
in reality are showing a boot that is
II inches from the floor. The real 12-
inch boot, however, measures a full
foot from the top of the heel.

Lumber for Railroads
Mills Expect Roads To Be the
PRINCIPAL BUYERS

Many lumber mills, according to the
american Lumberman, of Chicago, are
turning their attention to the produc-
tlon OF railroad ties and other railway
equipment. The lumber interests ex-
pect the railroads for some time To
come will be the principal buyers of
lumber, as immense quantities are
needed for building new cars, repairing
old ones, in improving roadbeds and in
building necessary switches, exten-
sions, etc. The slump in general build
ing activities, according to this paper,
has resulted in a slackening in the de-
mand for building lumber. The buying
squirt that occurred Immediately be-
fore the increase in freight rates has
died down and price recession in f. o. b.
mill prices, during the last week or ten
days have been fairly numerous.

COUNTY SEAT FIGHT
IN SIERRA LEADS TO
DEATH TRAP FOR MAN

Hillsboro, Dec. 3.-That r. p.
Pankey, active in the campaign to
remove the county seat of Sierra
from Hillsboro to Hot Springs, mar
rowly averted the burning of his
car and perhaps serious injury to
himself a day or two before cleo
ton, became known here today.
Knowing that Mr., Pankey was
actively campaigning for Hot
Springs and seeing his ear stand
ing on the streets of Hillsboro, a
friend went to take charge of it.
He found Mr., Pankey making a
futile effort to start the car. on
investigation it was discovered
that the lubricating oil had been
drained from the engine and re-
placed with gasoline. It'is the opin-
ion of garage men that had PAN
key succeeded in starting the en-
gine the gasoline would have
caught fire Immediately and perhaps
spread to or caused the explosion
of the tank, which contained five
gallons of oil. 1t is assumed that
someone whose enmity Mr.. Pan
key had arouse through his sup
port of Hot Springs, set the trap
for him.
