Sales at prices; considerably under
the market level continue to feature
the extra staple cotton markets, and
the volume Of business compares
favorably with that of other recent
weeks, despite the fact that sales
for the most part have been of small
lots. Prices generally have shown
a slight easing off from those of
week ago, and in some instances
as much as two cents a pound was
deducted from the shippers original
quotation in order to make a sale.
The market Is expected to
strengthen somewhat as result of
the more favorable situation in the
Fall River wage question, as it is
regarded as certain that the opera
tives Will accept the compromise Of
fer of the manufacturers. Shippers
appear to be more inclined to turn
their holdings into money than for
some time, as result of which there
have been transactions at figures
considerably under the prevailing
quotations.
Prices generally for extra staple
cotton, strict middling in grade and
color, and classed as to a very ex-
acting standard, fob. New Bedford,
are as follows:
1h inch. ......... .3s1a to ASH cents
3-16-inch ........34h to 80 cents

abroad. Trading in Liverpool reached
large pre- portions, Thursdays sales
of 10000 bales being the largest sin
gle days turnover in months. Bull
lish sentiment in this market was
stimulated by private cablegrams
from Liverpool, noting demand
there from Scandinavian countries,
from Germany and even from Russia.
In the southern spot markets there
was more inquiry but it was met by
only slender offerings. World mill
week were large, $4,000 bales
against $4,000 this week last year,
and caused much favorable comment.
Weather conditions over the belt
were an almost continuous support
for values. as during most of the
week too much rain fell and tempera-
lures were too low fer this time of
the year Reports reaching here from
the interior stated that very little
planting was being done and that
much young cotton in the earliest
portions of the belt had been wiped
out by cold so that in the estimation
of some crop observers, it might be
said that the planting of the crop for
1928 had not yet really started. On
the close of the week the weather
and dry, but prospects were for n
lowering of temperatures over Sun
day and for showery weather.
weather conditions seem likely to
dominate the market during the
week to come.
Mercerizing increases the strength
of cotton.

Seasoned traders in the Philadel-
phia yarn market have now reached
the conclusion that cotton and yarn
values have entered a period of re-
action and irregularity which may
last for several weeks. In some
cases, the prediction is made that
cotton yarn quotations will shortly
recede to the low level they touched
for a short time in February AL
ready some very low prices have
been reported. but the quantities in
volved in these transactions have
been SO few that a general revision
of the price list at this time, to con-
form to such low prices, is, obvious
ly, unWarranted.
The yarn dealers who ordinarily
look farthest ahead are not per-
turbed over the current display of
weakness in either cotton or yarns.
1t is definitely stated in this week S
quarters that the top" has not been
seen either in the raw material or
the yarns. 1t was pointed out this
week that these temporary setbacks
are as necessary in commodity mar
kets as in the stock market. They
serve to clean the air, eliminate
weakly held accounts and provide a
sound basis for a renewal of con-
structive operations later on.
Dealers whose opinions are the
most valuable are not acting or talk
ing bearishly regarding the outlook.
For example, certain of the yarn
houses that have played safe all
winter now display very keen inter-
est in accommodating supplies of yarns
in the south. They have been send
ing inquiries into sections to which
little attention has been given be-
fore. In other words, they are back
ing their faith in the future of val
ues in rather convincing way. The
only stipulation they make, as far as
can be ascertained, is that they can
take the yarns into stock at slightly
under present market prices.
Nevertheless, the belief seems gen
eral that values will ease off occa-
sionally until toward the end of this
month. A fresh buying wave is ex-
pected in May. Philadelphia factors
are urging customers to take full
advantage of concessions to stock ur
for their requirements through July
and August.
The following chart indicates the
trend of prices up to, but not in
GLIDING the decline Of Monday.

INDEX NUMBER-1So4a

For the first week this year, the
Fairchild News Service index num-
Der and average price of cotton
goods shows a decline, the result of
liquidation of raw cotton. The num-
her now is 1909. Last week it was
1911. Heretofore the trend has been
steadily upward. Market sentiment
for the long future looks for a
comeback for raw cotton and an up
