able British and domestic trade re-
ports were followed by rallies with
May selling up from 1131 to 11.59, or
Q points net higher. That delivery

6 points lower
Private returns point to domestic mill
consum ption of 3ss 900 bales for February,
compared with $4,000 last year and 366,-
600 for January. The increase as COM
pared with January was certainly no moro
than expected. but tho figures we're not

Early cables from liverpool emphasized
unemployment. financial strain and lack of
orders in Lancashire, but later adVices said
that the advance in bar silver was an
encouraging feature.
Southern spot markets as officially re-
ported unchangco 10 90 points lower,
generally unchanged, with middling quota

branches in the Near East and New
York City, were declared bankrupt to,
day, with debts estimated at 1l5, coo. 900
lire. the assets are placed at 1870 00o.-
600 lire. The chief creditors ars said
to be Italian and American banks.
The bankruptcy OF the concern was
due to untayorable exchange rates and
the general fall in prices.
The failure of the company caused
animated comment here. 1t was the
largest purveyor to General Baron
Wrangel, former anti Rolshevik leader
in South Russia, whose downfall
Was the immediate cause of the bank
ruptcy. A month ago the company con-
voked meeting of its creditors, some
of whom considered it possible to save
the concern. At the last moment, how
ever, the agreement fell through in
consequence of the objection o. some
of the American and Italian creditors
The Dilsizians had two subsidiary COM
panies, which are not affected by the
an automobile company in
Paris and steamship company in New
York.

THESE SILKS NEED NO DYE
Louisiana Man Has Discovered Meth.
3 Cd Of Making the Worms Color
% Their Own Product

While the silkworm has no fancy
for any particular color. preferring to
weave its cocoon Of a drab gray so
that It will not show against a gray
tree trunk, one man has discovered
a method whereby he can make the
little spinners produce any one Of the
16 shades at his pleasure. The man
IL DR.. vartan X. Osigian. son Of a
long line of silk manufacturers. and
he has an extensive silkworm farm
near New Orleans.
Osigian has discovered that upon
feeding the worms certain leaves they
will respond by spinning certain col
ors. He has carried out his expert
ments until he has the IS varieties Of
food to produce the like number OF
colOrs. The silk thus shaded will not
fade In either water or sunlight. Not
only has he secured colored silk, but
IN addition he has increased the
cocoon in size until single one pro-
vides 1900 yards to strand, and
hsre are two strands to a cocoon.
