Crude Rubber Market Dull.

The local crude rubber market was in
q rather confused state yesterday and as
o. result 1t was difficult to determine the
trend Of prices. Both buyers and sellers
evinced little desire to trade, their atten-
ton being centered on the meeting in
London OF representatives of the British
and Dutch Governments in connection
with the proposal to restrict the produc-
tion OF rubber Cables from London in
formed local brokers that about IS per
cent. of the rubber growers had con-
CURED in the proposed plan. 1t is hardly
likely. that immediate action will be
taken, however. A prominent British
authority, in discussing the London mar
ket, said: Stocks of plantation rubber
on this side indicate further increase
to about 70,S00 tons. according to latest
returns. and although this total is still
well pnder the highest seen in the last
year, there is no little nervousness re-
garding the present aspect of the mar
ket. The financing of this surplus pre-
sents more difficulty with so much un-
certainty and delay concerning the cur
failing of production under effective con-
troll !"

BurIap Market Unsettled.

There was little activity in yesterday $
burlap market and prices showed little
change Traders appear to have neg
iected the market and are eagerly await
ing definite news from Calcutta. Gables
received by local brokers were. OF a con-
flicting nature. Several of the cables re-
ported that the dock strike was over and
others stated that negotiations suggest a
speedy settlement The Calcutta market
was weaker yesterday, but this weakness
failed to be reflected in local quotations.
Light weights here were nominally
quoted at 6.35 to 6.50c. and hcavies, $50
to 9.75c. Traders anticipate n marked
advance IN prices In the near future. be-
cause with few ships due to arrive here
not later than July "a. there will be

Recession in Raw Wool.

There has been some contraction IN
activity In the raw wool market in the
last week and the position Of prices has
been shaken somewhat according to re.
ports from the Boston wool center
Manufacturers appear to be fairly well
covered on their requirements for some
time ahead and apparently are taking
only passing interest in the market at
present. With the awakening of a siz-
able demand from the worsted manu-.
faqturers there Is a possibility of a re-
turn OF the upward movement of prices,
for the stock of wool available for inn
mediate use Is not Of large proportions
1t is said. The proposed tariff continues
paramount in discussions in the market
When 1t will be enacted and what duties
on wool finally will be imposed are sub
Jects with which the trade is vitality
concerning itself. There also has been
abatement in buying in the Western
market, due, to a certain extent, to
reluctance on the part of most buyers
to pay prevailing prices, and the stout
refusal of holders to shade quotations.

Collections Better In West.


Wholesale distribution of merchandise
in the middle Western States last. week
was slightly behind that of a year ago.
according TO the review of II. T. Pom
dexter & Sons Merchandise Co. The de-
cline Is due to higher wholesale prices
However, this condition Is thought to be
only temporary. as the purchasing power
or the people naturally will be greater
as soon as crops have been marketed
The demand for domestics. sheetings
and other staple cotton goods continues
firm. An unusually late demand for sea-
sonal goods of all kinds is being expert
enced. Many rush orders for wash fab
rics, organdies and white goods have
been received during the last week. Many
merchants are still holding off placing
orders for fall goods, expecting to be
able to obtain merchandise desired as
they need the goods and at reasonable
prices. Collections have improved ma
terially and are running ahead Of year
ago. Market prices continue firm. Many
new advances and withdrawals have
been made by mills duringA the last
week.
