Cotton Goods Market.
New York, Nov. 17.—Cotton goods
were fairly steady today, most of the
business being pffered below prices
l that are’attractive to mills. Further
interest developed for future contracts
on heavy cloths. Ueports from auto
j manufacturing centers stated that a
full consumption of cotton goods
would be required in the industry in
the next few months. Yarns held
steady with trade moderate. Kaw
silk sold more freely on a slightly
lower basis of $(>.!)() for Japanese
grades. Hosiery manufacturers con
tinued to buy steadily. Silk goods
were in moderate call. Burlaps Were
, virtually unchanged in Calcutta and
quiet here. Confirmation of the good
, advance business on spring men's
wear added strength to the recent ad
vance on worsted goods.
