spinners are refusing positively to accent

this market. They, claim that tt Is entirely
a dealers’ market ami that they ran not

ners can manage to bold off the market
for some 111tie time before being compelled
to look for new business, it will serve
to make prices firmer, and. will give dealers
an opportunity to dispose of their hold

In not a few cases spinners state that
their prices are from I%ff2** per pound

Southern counts are showing a firmer tend-
eucy as spinners are holding off, and tha
nplles held In this market are liecomlug
