GREATER ACTIVITY
IN SILK TRADING
Retailers Reported Holding
Off on Fancy Cotton Dress
Goods at Present.
Special Dispa tch TO The Star.


NEW YORK, January 26.-Im-
porters of fancy cotton dress goods
report a disposition on the part Of
retailers to ask for deferment of de-
livery for one month on their con-
tracts. this being attributed to mild
weather, which has delayed the turn
ling of winter goods into cash, and
the late date of this years Easter
Retailers who have put such novelty
goods on sale for spring report
good demand, especially on crepes,
whether embroidered or printed.
In the silk branch there has been
increase in the number Of buyers
coming into the market. These are
placing orders for plain silks, their
purchases of printed silks having
been made quite some time ago. AS
usual to0ASd the end of season.
there is cleaning-up Of odd lots by
manufacturers and converters and
some selling of like nature by cut
ters-up who We're overstocked with
left-overs.
Knit Goods Market Slow.
! Business in the knit goods markets
has been slow on the whole. Because
Of the mild winter the movement of
heavyweight underwear has been
and retailers are said to be rather
heavily stocked. 1t is believed that
there will be d Jorge carry-oVer of
heavy weight goods at the end of
Ithis season. Partly for this reason
and partly because Of uncertainty
regarding prices, advance business
| on next seasons heavy weights is
being placed very conservatively. On
1 spring goods. 1t is understood, whole
salers have placed only about 30 per
cent of their requirements and an
active demand, consequently, is ex-
lpected to develop in the near future.
The hosiery market has been dis
turbed somewhat by price cutting on
| low-end cotton lines and reported
concessions on some silk lines. This
! is making buyers even more hesitant
| than they have been about placing
advance orders at the present time.
In wool dress goods additional
| lines Of fiannelS. now so much in de-
mand. are being offered by mills that
| noticed the tendency and were pre-
pared to extend their operations on
these fabrics. Manufacturers Of fine
worSted twflls, reps, etc, are noting
| the attention which smartly dressed
women are now giving TO suits, as
! reported in the Dry Goods Economist
frecently. Prices on wool dress goods
| and coatineS are firm, with expecta-
tfon of advances when the lines are
fully opened for fall, this expectation
being based on the firmness of raw
wool in all markets.

MANS BODY IS
FOUND IN BOX
Wealthy Pennsylvania Man
ufacturer Is Victim

New York, Aug. 23.-A tin box
in a Greenwich village basement
gave up the body of Aaron Graft
wealthy manufacturer of Wilkes
Barre, Pa, and furnished the homi-
eide squad another gruesome mur-
der mystery to solve.
Graft, missing since Aug. 1, had
been strangled. His limbs had been
hacked off and crammed, with the
rest of his body, into a galvanized
tin container four feet long. Blan-
I /kets had been stuffed around him,
the lid of the box had been sealed
with shellac, and over all had been
poured thick coating of wax and
plaster-of-paris.
A tiny hole in the box released
an odor of decomposition which
days ago caused residents of the
building to complain to health
authorities. This morning detec-
tives, who for weeks had been
searching for Graft, traced the odor
to the basement and thence to the
box.
The dead man was manufacture
er of radio cabinets. The base
ment where his body was found
was occupied by the family of John
Logasy, carpenter and caretaker
from whom Graft purchased cab
inets in the rough. Logasy is re-
ported by his wife to have been
missing since Aug. 9 and a gener-
al alarm was broadcast tonight for
his arrest.
Graft was 72 years old.

Berlin, Aug. 23.-The London con-

The Chancellors speech. which was

the alternative in the event it de-
cides to reject the agreement made
by the German delegation in Londan.

Paris, Aug. 23.-(By the A. P.)--
"When shall we get into communica-

Flammarion, octogenarian French as
tronmer to question put by the
Petite Partisan.
"Why perhaps they (the Martians
already tried at the epoch of the
Iguanodon, and the Dinosaur and got

care the luminous projection of
Mars signals. or simply reflections of
the sum-"
"That it is mystery, I would be
as bold to affirm as the unscientific
to deny.
"Who knows if this year will set
tie the question:"
M. Flammarion had no doubt that
there are inhabitants of Mars.
"The Martians are happier than
we. and much more intelligent, be-
cause their planet is several years
older than ours, and progress is
further advanced, they are less gov
erned by matter, the gravity there
being less. A man or woman Of l5O

"The years are twice as long, and
the Martian is only so when we are
81 years old. Finally the climate is

CERTIFICATE
OF SHERIFF NOT
GOOD ON CROP

Minot, N. D., Aug. 23.-The holder
of sheriff's certificate to farm
land on which mortgage has been
foreclosed is not entitled to share
in the crop grown by the former
owner during the year of redemp-
tion permitted by law, according to
a decision rendered recently by
Judge j. c. Lowe of Minot. The
ruling promises to be of great in
terest in North Dakota because of
frequent occurrences of the same
question.
\ The opinion of the local jurist was
given in Mountrail county action
in which the Minnesota Moline Plow
company appeared as plaintiff, seek
ing foreclosure of chattel mort
gage against Carl M. Elgin, and the
First National hank of Van Hook
appeared as codefendant with Elgin.
The issue on which the decision was
made concerned the claim Of the
First National bank of Harvey as
interpleaded defendant, which rsti-i
tuition was the holder of the sher-
