Immediately following the t] unfavorable government crop report d of September 1st, the raw cotton P market began us' upward movement.' - and as quotations .Lily— even hourly :u . --rose higher and higher, there was in a TUsli of cotton goods buyers to|cl place orders at the ten existing price ! ct levels. But 3s manufacturers had no Id • means of knowing to what height* Is r raw cotton quotations might soar, ' er . many of them withdrew their lines, pi , Others took orders at advanced ! ce prices, and some few made s sales fn contingent on the prices prevailing on w. the day of shipment. In many cases in and retailers, in thF belief ra that raw cotton wbuld not maintain t>e it* gains, refused to pay the higher or prices asked, and the huiyng of rot- ha ton goods, which had been steadily *ti gaining .prior to the advance in yaw ini cotton, was checked, and is still in checked at the nresent time. A like in situation exist* in the cotton yarn . wo imiustry, in the underwear industry, i foi and in the cotton branch of the hos- ; cai lery industry. • ' Yarn price* have ! foi in sympathy with raw cot- as quotations, and as n result many 1 thi underw ear manufacturers have tern- 1 fal pororilv withdrawn their lines. The ta| few riirrent sales arc being made at »" higher prices. There is no fixed w' price level for cottun hosiery, and the M't business lining trniutavUil is 'there- ; nui fore small. But . the sentiment in ' •»* these industries is greatly Improved, ! »nd it is universally stated that the j <-er

The situation in the -ilk industry generally is letter than that which existed last month. There la inure buying of raw -ilk, and the demand for broad silks slightly greater, although the continue.! warm weather during September ha- greatly retarded the fall -ilk -ft. son. An Increased volume of for immediate delivery. In view of the fart that silk alone of textiles showed no improvement 'during August, the results of the 1 past month are encouraging. • • Conditions in the wool industrv ■ generally belter than they were in August, ul though the demand Tor | cloth is somewhat light.-,-. A few ! cancellation* of order* for wool cloth, particularly overcoatings, have receifod, owing to late deliveries. but they diavc .not reached such proportions a* to cause much concern. There is an increased demand some grades of woolen and worsted yarns, but tho yam situation In general is but little changed. For wool the demand is considerably better, more onlers for future delivery are being placed, pnd price* advanced. The finer bloods are still in most active request, but the in sales is relatively greater in medium and low grade wools than in wools of higher quality. Carpet wools are selling dm good volume, and forwanl buying common. In the| rarpet and rug industry, the demand (or Wilton and Brussels is improved »s compare.! with last month, . but lhat for tapestries and velvets has rallen off slightly. The strike in the tapestry and velvet section of the industry, which continued after the Wilton nnd Brussels' strike had been •ettled, was adjusted during the past 1 month. Workers agreed lo an im- 1 mediate wage reduction of 15 per rent., ami to, a further cut of 5 per 1 lent, to take effect on Oetolier 1st. —

Sales of! iw belting , leather have advanced Its "'rmlily in the past six weeks, intlieating beyond a doubt that industrial p. activity has expanded. ,H The most significant of the changes in conditions is the continued gain in r-e ,hc »»'l steel industry.- Demand l„ for pig iron and steel ingots has . ,f grown steadily stronger and the pro ,, duction correspondingly larger. How,e ever, the unfilietl orders of the United Stales Steel Corporation fell y off tluring August, but this was e probably due to the fact that demaml ir wa* Confined largely to immediate *- delivery. |n fact, most of the prc- ,| ent sales tall for prompt shipment. , e The greatest ilegree «tf improvement • .. has been made by pig iron; sales are h larger, prices have stiffened, ami the general tone of the industry is bet- ,, ter. The prioe* of finished steel f j products. with very few- exceptions. J „ lutve not increased, but most of the j| r precipitous declines have been P ! checketl. Greater operations in the t iron and steel industry continue to 1 s lie reflected in the beehive coke in- " t dustry.
