Raw SILK Prices Firm.

The Yokohama raw silk market con-
tinued strong yesterday although trad
Ing moderated somewhat. Prices in the
local market were Arm In sympathy
with the primary market. Though
buyers are acting more cautiously.
says II. l.. Gwalter's market letter, the
volume OF daily transactions remains
satisfactory and there Is a particularly
good demand for tram stock, which Is
scarce and difficult to procure. 4
notable rise is recorded In Canton silks
amounting to 80 cents a pound. and re-
newed interest In those sorts is shown
in 1915 sizes for velvet purposes. while
the 20-22 size Is made attractive TO
makers OF crepe by the high price of
Japan raws. Conditions in the fabric
market show marked improvement
and the expansion of business finds eN-
preston in a steady increase Of looms
put to work at the mills. ! In the canton
market holders are very firm IN their
views and are not anxious TO contract
ahead at present prices"

BUSINESS NOTES
AND TRADE NEWS
Percale Prices Advanced by
Printer and Another Pro-
ducer Withdraws Lines.

Advances in percale prices ranging
from one-half TO three-quarters of a
cent yard were announced yesterday
by a foremost printer. The $3.50 per-
Gales were raised three-quarters OF a
cent. while the higher counts were ad-
vanced one-haf OF a cent per yard.
Another large producer announced that
it had withdrawn Its lines Of percales,
having been sold up to February /. The
advances were more or less expected in
the trade, because II was realized that
the old prices were too low in comparison
with prices in the primary market. In
ginghams little has been done with re-
gard TO the naming of prices for next
spring. Announcements, however. are
expected to be made within the next few
weeks.

DEPARTMENT STORES
AUGUST TRADE LARGE
Heaviest Year to Year Gain
Since 1920.

An increase In August Of 5.3 per cent
In the sales OF slxty-four department
stores in this district, compared with
sales in August. 1921. was the largest
year to year increase reported since
November. 1920, to the Federal Reserve
Bank OF New York in each OF the last
three years sales in August were be-
low those Of July. but this year they
were larger.
This gain has been due mainly TO
larger sales or housefurnishing goods
and ready TO wear clothing Almost
without exception merchants report that
furniture sales durIng August were we'll
above those OF last year. a reflection of
the completion OF large numbers OF new
homes in all parts OF the district. A
majority OF merchants reported better
sales OF ready to wear clothing, and
stores that sell apparel and accessories
exclusively showed gain in sales OF
per cent.
Wholesale trade In the New York
Reserve Bank district during August
showed distinct increase In n number
OF lines despite the coal and railroad
strikes.
Compared with figures for August
last year. says the bank. sales were
larger In eight OF the ten groups Of
commodities. Grocery sales showed
loss of per cent, and,N although gro
ceries are the most heavily weighted
commodity in our index. this loss was
not sufficient to prevent an increase
of "a per cent. in the total weighted
average OF sales. Shoe sales were IS
per cent. lower than last August.
mainly on account OF labor troubles In
Rochester. The largest increases ia
sales were reported by dealers in ma
chine tools and diamonds. Sales in
these lines were exceptionally small last
year, and the gam this year has not
been sufficient to bring them up TO
what is considered a normal volume"

See Higher Fabric Prices.

That prices on wooden and worsted
fabrics are shaping themselves to higher
levels seems 10 be the general opinion OF
tho trade. II appears to be only a mat
ter of short time when advances in
fabrics, especially worsteds. will take
place. Prices named recently on woolen
fabrics for next spring showed but slight
advances over the previous spring, not
withstanding the rise of about 100 per
cent. In raw wool costs during the period.
The mills We're enabled to price their
fabrics comparatively low because they
had on hand surplus OF material pur-
chased before the raw wool advances
took place. The low priced material has
now been consumed and manufacturers
are forced to pay the higher prices pre-.
vailing in the market.
