NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Consump-
ton of rayon yarn and staple fiber
in the United States during the first
nine months of this year totaled
1926, 700, 900 pounds, practically equal
ing the entire 1898 annual consump-
ton of 327,200,0Oo pounds, Rayon
Organon stated today.
Use Of rayon staple fiber showed
the greater gain, nine months con-
sumption aggregating 6850O,0 900
pounds against So, 100000 pounds for
the full year 1888. Rayon yarn con-
sumption amounted to $4,000, 900
pounds for the nine months COM
pared with 274,100,O00 pounds for all
of last year.
While record rayon consumption
is expected for 1899, the Organon

of 122000,000 pounds estimated for
the three months ended September
