BUSINESS NOTES
AND TRADE NEWS
Electrical Trade Buying Yarns
New Wool Prices Expected
to Be Made Soon.

The local cotton yarn market dis
played yesterday increased activity and
the stiffening tendency OF prices con-
tinued Inquiries from all trades were
more numerous. while foreign interests.
especially South America. manifested
more interest in the market. A yarn
manufacturer reported considerable
volume of business from the electrical
trade. which he said had covered Its
requirements well into September. Vel
vet and silk factors are observing the
market more closely and buying more
often, although in small quantities. The
knit goods convention In Atlantic City
and Philadelphia is diverting the inter-
est of many knitting interests from the
market, he said.

Expect New Wool Prices.

The American Woolen Company's
withdrawal Of all its lines for the time
being has created much discussion in
woolen circles. The prevailing opinion
Is that that action foreshadows further
price advances. Although no informa-
ton was Forthcoming from the offices Of
the company a belief pervades the
trade that an encouragement of some
sort will be made to-day or tomorrow
by the company. When its last price
list was announced it was stated that
the advances then made covered the
difference In raw wool costs up to that
time. Continued activity in the raw
wool market and stiffening prices sub
stantiate the opinion that new level
of prices will be announced soon.

Burlap Quotation. Hold Firm.

Little buying In yesterdays local bur-
lap market was reported, although prices
we're unchanged. Some consumers were
said to be shopping around for odd sizes
but the supply of such merchandise was
small. The Calcutta market was re-
ported as strong. Bag interests seem to
be following the local market closer,
although not inclined to commit
themselves beyond their immediate re-
quirements. Foreign accounts are in
quiring more freely. which has led the
trade to believe that appreciable buying
from those sources will develop soon.

Petticoat Sale. Trendins Up.

Retail sales of petticoats have I'M
proved considerably in the last few
weeks. White is the favorite color. In
styles the straight line double paneled
petticoats and the models with hens
turned back to the hips are enjoying
steady demand. In those models snteen
and tub silk are leading materials. Ea-
dunn is considered by many as the most
popular material for white silks. Wash
satin appears to have been relegated 60
less important position. although a
small volume of sales Is reported. Co.'S
tune slips have met with favorable re-
sponse from buyers. For these articles
crepe back satin and crepe de Chine are
mentioned as the leading materials. The
demand seems to be for white slips for
sport and summer frock wear and for
black numbers for wear with black
silk street frocks worn In summer.

are popular guests.
