WAR IN NEAR EAST
PUTS COTTON DOWN
Five to Is Points Stripped Off
Futures Quotations After
Irregular Moves.

Nervousness over the situation In the
Near East probably increased the dis
position to even up commitments for
over the weekend in the cotton mar
ket yesterday. Fluctuations were corre-
spondlngly irregular with rallies from
an early decline followed by renewed
weakness in the late trading. Decem-
ber contracts sold up from 21.62 to
21.69. but later broke TO 21.45 and closed
at that level with the general market
closing barely steady at a net decline
OF 5 to 10 points.
The market opened steady at un-
changed prices to a decline of points
under overnight selling orders which
included scattered hedging by the South.
After the call the market fir1ned up
on bullish reports from the goods and
spot markets. The appearance of a
tropical disturbance somewhere near
Martinique probably promoted covering
on this rally, but after showing net ad-
vances of s to 10 points prices weakened
again under renewed hedging and
realizing or liquidation. The close was
within a few points Of the lowest on
the general list.
Sales Of print cloth in the Fall River
market were estimated at 100000 pieces
and 1t was declared that business in
Fall River and the local market COM
bined had been heavier for the week
just ended than at any previous time
for months.
The local market for spot cotton was
quiet and 10 points lower at 21.50 for
middfing, with sales nil. The New Or
leans spot market was quiet, unchanged
at PIC. Its sales were SIS bales.

Raw Fur Supplies Scarce.
Manufacturers who enter the raw fur
market are finding II almost impossible
to get quantities OF the popular skins

There Is also less haggling over prices.
Buyers have become reconciled to the

that prices may go higher. Coats made
from dyed muslTat, black caracul and

and wholesale circles.

RAIL CONGESTION NEAR

ByeotoI Dispatch to THE New YoRK HERALD.
P1rrsBuRoH, Sept 16.-Production OF
pig iron and steel Is hardly increasing
as rapidly at present as 1t was a week
ago. though several steel works furnaces
are getting into blast. The serious con-
gestion on the railroads. long predicted
as q sequel to the ending OF the coal
strike, now appears very near at hand,
and further important increases in pig
iron and steel production are distinctly
prpblematical.
At the end Of August steel ingot pro-
duction was down to a rate Of about
so per cent capacity. 1t seems safe to
predict that a so per cent rate will
be reached within a few days, IL 1t has
not already been attained, but also that
q rs per cent. rate is improbable for
any time in the remainder of the year
The chief limiting factor Is the move
ment OF coal to byproduct coking plants
at steel works
The Connellsville region still has Its
strikes, but with the continued increase
In production 1t has practically reached
the limit of its probable car supply,
The Carnegie Steel Company, which
depends largely upon the region. has
almost reached the rate of steel produce
ton 1t had in the latter part of March.
Higher Prices Predicted.
No spectacular increases In finished
steel prices have occurred In the past
week, but the undertone OF the marker
Is very strong and the probabilities are
that higher prices will be reached. A
factor in the situation Is that mills face
losses In filling old and lower priced
orders under the greatly increased costs
now ruling and are forced to endeavor
to strike an average by selling steel In
future at higher prices.
The common market on bars, shapes
and plates is 2.25c., only very indefinite
deliveries being involved at lower
prices. and even at that the purchases
are made with difficulty.
Plate tonnages of fair sizes are be-
ing sold at as high as 2.25c., base Pitts
6urgh in this district, one maker taking
O total In excess OF 1000 tons from two
or three customers on that basis. after
having been out of the market for
some time. The Carnegie Steel Com
pany Is understood to have 2.00c. base
level for It's customers on such business
as 1t will accept, while independents
are quoting from also. up to 2.25c The
present plate business is not as large as
expected, many users protesting to be
unable to pay the 2.25c. level.
The pinch OF shortened steel supplies
is still felt by cold drawn steel bar pro
ducers. One large main source of hot
rolled bars has been practically closed
to them since the 10 of August
This Is true at time when incoming
business is good. large tonnages being a
matter OF day to day receipt. The in.
Quiry rate is heavy and orders for a
single carload at a time are particular,
numerous. Occasionally from 100 to SOC
tons and larger are bought. The market
price continues unchanged at 2.50c., bas,

BUYING 'HAND TO MOUTH

Aside from some slight irregularities,
business In the primary textile markets
last week continued to forge ahead. An
other sharp advance in raw silk prices
took place and cotton goods values rose
slightly, while other textile prices
gained strength. The continued strength
enfng of quotations has not as yet ex-
erted any Influence over buyers. who
still cling to their hand to mouth" pol
Icy OF merchandising.
Notwithstanding the consumer resis-
tance. advances in textile values now
seem to be almost Inevitable as a re-
SUN OF the wage increases recently
granted by New England textile mills.
Even before such action was taken IL
was freely predicted by textile leaders
that prices would go higher Quota
tions prevailing in the primary mar
kets. are far above those for finished
goods, and since raw material continues
strong. finished goods prices must go
higher. 1t was said. to close the wide
spread.
Opinion is current in all quarters that
the textile industry, as well as others.
is at the beginning of a period of pros
perity. The wage increase In steel and
textile mills, and good crops. are only a
few factors which are making for en-
HANGED purchasing power. The bull eff
feet Of the textile strikes has not vet
been felt. Its effect probably will be
seen later in the fall In the form of
shortage of merchandise and higher
prices.
Gray Goods bringing Increases.
There was considerable buying in the
gray goods market last week, with an
attendant rise in prices. Figuring on a
good fall business and good trade for
early spring, the large users of print
cloths have been willing to buy ahead
freely to the end of the year. In The
finished goods trade. business continued
in a small way.
Two large printers have withdrawn
their lines Of percales, and the trade
looks for an upward revision. Con-
verters have been buying fancy crepes
and ratines in small quantities, waiting
for more indications from the jobbing
trade before going ahead normally.
There is a great deal of interest centered
on gfngham mills. The date for the
opening of their lines for next spring and
the prices to be named are questions
which are worrying the trade at this
time.
Although business In woolens and
worsteds for next spring continued
spotty. sentiment among manufacturers
improved considerably. Factors be-
lieve that a better demand soon will
appear, because garment manufacturers
have not contracted for enough goods
to cover the entire season. I.
In the dress fabrics division. buyers

Operations at the mills are gaining. but
1t will be some time before the pro-
ductlon will be able to cope with the
demand Trade factors are confident
that. prices Will continue strong, with
likelihood of going higher.
