OFF IN PENNA.

Workers in the Pennsylvania
anthracite field showed a decrease
of nearly IA per cent from March
to April, after an almost steady
rise for several months, reaching
in March the highest level since
the spring of 1882.
According to the Philadelphia

on original reports received by the
Anthracite Institute from "a COM
panies; in April these companies
operated 1875 GOLFERS employing
almost $1,000 workers whose aver
age weekly earnings amounted to
about $2,091 900.
Total wage payments declined
by 81 per cent from the March
level, Which was the highest since
the fall of 1881. The amount of
work done, as measured by en-
ploye-hours actually worked during
April in the collieries of 20 com
panies, also dropped almost SO per
cent, rejecting largely a seasonal
trend.

RETAIL PRICES
OFF IN APRIL

BY lntefnaG1O0al news SeESICO
Retail prices slid off during
April the first monthly dip since
the present upturn began last
May, Fairchild publications re-
ports.
The Fairchild retail price index
on May / stood at 1914, averag-
ing seven-tenths of l per cent
lower than the previous months
figure of 80, but 1913 per cent
above the 69.4 position of May,
1888, which was also the low
point of the depression. The
basic figure of the index, 100,
represents prices as of January
1881. Fairchild says:
"While the current index
shows the first decline, the
movement of prices since the
beginning of the year has been
within a restricted area, which
was in contrast with the sharp
gain recorded late in the sum-
mer and early fall of 1888, de-
spite the marked gain in
prices from the low point, quo
tatiOnS still average 1O.6 per
cent below January, 1891, and
rs per cent below November
1922"
The trend of prices among vari
GUS groups during April was
somewhat confused, Fairch1ld
points out, with piece goods and
v-omen's apparel quotation aver
aging fractionally higher. Mems
and infants wear and home
furnishings showed decline.
AS compared with a year ago,
piece goods prices showed the
greatest gain, despite the fact
that the, silk fabric price advance
has Jagged.

JAPAN TEXTILE
TRADE SCARS
IN MARCH

With foreign markets fol
American goods dragging, Japan
broke all her records for cotton
textile shipments abroad in
March, and is planning to ex
pand her trade in Latin-Amer'
lea and the Philippines, as well
as IN Africa, a report to Score
tary Of Agriculture Wallace
showed today.
The report, from Vice Consul
Walter P. McConaughty, at Kobe
Japan, stated that having pene,
trated the African market, the
Japanese "are continuing their
efforts to expand their foreign
markets, particularly in Latin
America, Africa, and the Philip,
pine Islands"
Indian Cotton Used
The report stated:
Exports of cotton cloth in
March reached 223,286,OOO
square yards. This Is fully
10000, 900 bales above any pre-
YiOuS monthly exports"
American cotton growers have
profited in the past from Japan's
rise in the textile export field,
but the latest report shows them
losing out to Indian cotton be,
cause Of the wide spread between
American prices and the cheap
East Indian product.
While American shipments to
Japan in March we're above the
seasonal average, even against
Indian competition, the latter has
at last exceeded the American cot
ton shipments for the first time
in q year. The margin was com
paratively small, however, Ameri-
can cotton stocks in japanese
warehouses on March 81 were
387, $40 bales.
Crowds African Market
Not only has Japan made strik-
ing inroads in the world cotton
textile market, but these ship
ments were increasingly profitable
during the past year, the report
showed.
Japan has lately crowded into
the African market with her fin
ished cotton goods to such an ex-
tent that Africa now is the prin-
cipal buyer, instead of the Dutch
East Indies.
Inroads of the japanese ex'
porters in the Dutch colonies led
the Dutch to threaten import re-
Strictions. Japanese and Dutch
representatives are meeting this
week to discuss a truce.

BIC NEWSPR |NT.
GAINS SHOWN

Production of newsprint in the
United States and Canada in
April continued to run far ahead
of the corresponding period last
year. Production in the two
countries during the month ran
IS per cent ahead of April last
year, with Canada showing q
gain Of 46.5 per cent, according
to figures compiled by the News
Service Bureau. The gain for the
United States was 1872 per cent.
Canadian output was the great
est for any month since July,
1880.
While output Of United States
mills gained during April, the
increase was much less than that
for the Canadian mills, and the
output of the United States con-
tinued well below the figures for
the corresponding 1882 month.
In March output Of United
States, and Canadian mills in
creased 1871 per cent over March
a year ago, and for the first
three months of the year mills
of both countries showed an in
crease in output of 3O.2 per cent.
For the first four months of
1884, Canadian mills produced
1894 tons of newsprint against
1922 tons in the like period
last year, an increase OF 238,165
tons or 43.2 per cent. United
States mills during the same
period turned out 325,241 tons
against 292,6O2 tons last year, a
gain of 32,639 tons or 10 per cent.
Four months production for both
countries was 1,114,698 tons COM
pared with 843,894 tons a year
ago, an increase of 27O,8O4 tons
or 80 per cent. In the first four
months of 1892 production was
1,039, sos tons and in the same
period of 1881, at amounted to
1,141,354 tons.
Shipments during the month
exceeded production by a little
more than 5000 tons.

COTTON STEADY
AFTER EASIER
OPENING

NEW YORK, May IS GN.S).
A firmer tone in wheat Steadied
cotton futures today after an
easier opening, the list converting
losses of a point or so into gains
Of about Is cents a bale. Trad
ing, however, continued at the
comparatively slow pace of recent
sessions.
The demand for cotton today
consisted chiefly of price-fixing
operations for domestic mills and
the continental trade, with brok-
ers acting for japanese interests
taking small lots Of the staple out
of the ring. Southern selling was
light, but some offerings came
from commission houses and spot
firms. 1t required only light and
scattered buying orders to move
the market up.
BulliSh sentiment was curtailed
by further favorable crop news re.
ports, particularly from southern
portions of the belt. A dispatch
from Texas stated that boil weevil
had been found in cotton fields q
quarter mile from winter shelter,
indicating a more rapid movement
than normal this spring. It was
pointed out that the unusually
wet spring had favored increase
Of all insects.
Lack of definite news on silver
and reports late yesterday the
House commodity exchange bill
probably would include cotton,
were additional factors in re-
straining a general upward move
ment in futures.
On the other side of the pic
ture is the feeling that the market
in its decline Of over $3.50 a bale
from last weeks best, probably
was corrected technically and is
