Leather,

Leather demand was less active last
week, many of the largest buyers re-
naming out of the market because
they have not yet used up recent pur-
chases. Some shoe manufacturers say
they will not buy leather until prices
come down. On the other hand tanners
assert that present prices Of raw
materials are above to-day's leather
prices. Raw materials have not vet
shown any considerable downward
tendencies; some, on the contrary, such
as city calfskins, were advanced last
week. Tanners, leather dealers and
shoe manufacturers would prefer that
costs be kept down, but natural con-
ditions over which they have no con-
troll appear to have ruled otherwise.
Shoe manufacturers of women's lines,
in some localities, have reduced their
cutting forces temporarily. Makers Of
shoes continue to feel the market with
spring merchandise.

Silks

Both raw and finished silks were Iass
active last week. The falling off In
buying Of finished silk goods Is partly
seasonal, according to manufacturers
who expect distinct upward trend in
buying in few weeks. Style is begin
ning to cause some uncertainty in the
trade. Taffetas have again come into
demand, but considerable stocks are
held in second hands, with the result
that manufacturers are finding it diff
cult to book new business on a basis
that will show profit. In addition to
this 1t is difficult to obtain weavers

Cottons

Cotton goods were less active last
week. In the gray or unfinished goods
markets, following the sharp break in
raw cotton, there were some offerings
Of goods In speculative hands at an
eighth of cent a yard under open
market quotations. Mill prices, how
ever, were firmly maintained.
The finished goods market continues
spotty, with price advances on wanted
merchandise. In the dress goods field
the. style element is strong and many
varieties of goods not in fashion are
selling at figures not in keeping with
the general market. To-day Converse
g. Co. announce an advance of q cent a
yard in Fruit of the Loom muslin over
the last quotation. The price was with
drawn some time ago and higher prices
were expected by the trade.

Jewelry demand for all lines and
from all sections of the country con-
ttinues brisk. Prices generally have
been steady. Silverware manufac-
turers are working at capacity opera

Precious stones, though in many cases
bought less freely than the week be-

Pearls have had an extraordinary de-

active. Staples were not neglected

Apparel

1t is still between seasons III the
women's wholesale apparel markets
and little in the way of indications con-
corning the coming spring season have
come to light. Several dress houses
have begun showing spring samples,
but little actual business has resulted
so far. Retailers are now in the mar
ket for job lots of surplus merchan-
disc, but are not finding any great
amounts, it is said, although there ap-
parently is sufficient winter apparel at
hand to soften prices slightly, partic-
ularly in the lower grades.
The mems field is in the midst Of the
spring selling season, and reports con-
tinue favorable so far
At retail the public has not exerted
any extraordinary demand for winter
apparel. This is attributed largely TO
the weather conditions. Colder wealth
er is earnestly hoped for by the re-
tailers. Already few sales Of season
able merchandise have been announced.

Colonel Samuel Y. Ham Before
 Investigating Committee

Washington, Jan. 12.-Only two sol diers were hanged at Is-surTille while he was in command there from March to July, 1919, Col. Samuel " Ham testified today before senate com mittee Investigating charges that sol diers had been put to death in France without trial of court maritla.
 He said the orders to execute the men caused him such personal regret that he kept them from the knowledge of his staff for a day. The post chap lain was directed to confer with the condemned men while the galloWs was being erected, and to remain with them constantly. The military police were directed to throw cordon around the scaffold and the mayor and town authorities were asked to attend. Col. Ham added, however that all the French women and children in the neighborhood were present.

 J. D. Hashhagcn speaks J. D, Hashhagen, general freigh agent of the Northwestern Atlanti ] Steamship company told of the op eratons of that company and wha the concern Is doing 10 increase busi ness at the New London pier. The steamship company which h. represents, was organized in Februar, of 1920, It operates six ships toda, which run from the eastern coast l. the Pacific coast by way of the Pana ma canal and has the New London pier as one of its shipping centers.
 Mir I1ashhagen stated that tn, state pier at New London may be ai asset or liability, but if the forme would prove to be profitable both di rectly and indirectly. He told of tho troubles the company had and sti has at the state pier, but that the, could be overcome and the place made a paying opposition.
 Tn shipping" T, Hashhagen said
 
 cd after for each oyage. One Is the ship, the second is the freight, ant the third Is the cargo. He also sait that everything for which the ship i. not held responsible may be covered by marine insurance.
 Good Distributing Point
 In continuing Mir. Hashhager said
 ct n a m Shj, y,n n liyf on a one-way business and must have it both coming and going. for this reason" he said, T think New Lon don is good distributing point. l, is in a good location and Connecticut shippers should make use of it."
 Local Viewpoint
 President Leon Sprague called upon w. H. Caldwell, who is a member oi the roads, rivers and bridges commit tee. to state the viewpoint of the local manufacturers on the problem Of shipping out of New London. Mr Caldwell stated that he has watched the development of the New London pier and realizes the importance of shipping out of that port. He gave some figures in which he showed that it was cheaper to ship goods from New London to the west than it was from either New York or Boston. He also made an appeal to the local manufacturers to send their goods through the state port.
 Letter Of Appreciation
 A letter of appreciation from Miss Cora Beale of the charity department was read by President Sprague. Miss Beale thanked the Rotary club for the work they did in providing Christmas dinners to many of the needy in the city.

ASK SHIPPERS TO
 USE STATE PIER
Manufacturers Urged to Send
 Goods Via New London

An appeal to the manufacturers of New Britain to ship their goods through the port of New London was made at the weekly luncheon of the Rotary club held at the Elks' c,2o this noon, Members of the traffic bureau of the Chamber of Commerce were present as the guests of the Rotary club.
 Waldo Clark Speaks.
 Waldo Clark, president Of the New London Rotary club, and engineer of the state pier in that city, gave an interesting talk on the developments of the pier. The pier was built out of money authorized by the state leg islature at cost of l,0o0,OOO. Daring the war it was turned over to the naval department.
 At present the pier is leased by the General Navigation company. The state, however shares in the income received. Mir. Clark asked for the support of local manufacturers and urged that they ship out of New Lon don rather than New York or Boston.
 Tt was rather unfortunate for the state that the naval department had control of the pier during the war in- asmuch as the state was not given an opportunity to develop the pier at the right time" Mir. Clark said. Follow ing the war there was q big letup in shipping and as result the pier has not been q paying proposition" he added. "It is one of the best in this part of the country as it is 1,O20 feet in length and is capable of holding a cargo of 25,000 tons at one time" MT. Clark said.
 Ships Tied Up.
 Mir. Clark asserted that, at the pres ent time, there are 12 shipping board vessels tied up at the pier in addition to two large passenger ships. He also stated that the navigation company is expecting more ships to be sent to the port which will remain idle.
 In a few words, Mir. Clark told how it would take several years to build up the business at the state pier but said that someone had to start it. Some of the New Britain manufactur- CTS have goods to be sent to the west coast and Mr. Clark asked those pres
