Some sninll lots of yarn nre being picked up from tliue to time, but these sales arc not of sufficient slsc to stiff en up prices any.

Yarns which were con tracted for Mime time ngo by dealers nre beginning to |»o delivered by spinners, or ,siul knitters seem'to have enough on band st the present time to carry them. Spinners ure still holding out for prices which are considerably above those obtain able In this market, and will eontlnno to do so. It Is believed, as long ns they have enough orders on Imml to keep their plants running. Fine counts show further weak ness. as there is practically nothing doing on these numbers. Other prices nre very Ir regular. according to the quarter of the mar- ket in which they are quoted. In some quarters prices ou the same counts show a difference of fully , i6V. due to the Stork that the seller haptiens to have ou hand. Several spinners have been In the market during the past few days for the purpose of slslng up the situa tion. Some are reported to have come down In their price Ideas after finding out conditions prevailing to be worse than they expected. Print Cloths Move Slowly.
