year Europe holds contracts for. tec States will have to take
npwaids of 1000000 bales foi the initiath e in bringing about
early shipment but this yearja sojutlon of the silver ques-
there has been less cotton sold
than for many seasons. Our
own spinners are closing their j
miils for longer or shorter
periods ostensible- for repairs
but really because they cannot
iuy the cotton necessary to
enable them to ran their
i spindles to their full capacity.
Suck a condition of affairs has
nerer been known in the his
tqry of the trade. We have
known of Mills closiug down
because of inability to sell
goods but never of their clos-;
ing because they could not buy
cotton. The improvement in
general" business his caused
sharp advances fn cottcn goods
and the volume cf -sales for the 5
past fortnight has not been ex:-
ceeded in years. Vhy then
does not cotton advance is the
question to be answered. We
believe tbe reason to be found
is the despondent condition of
the members of the tra.de aris

be decided by the weather con-

o-ainine ground that silver will
reo-ain some of its lost value;
there is also an opinion that
its role as a money metal will
soon be ended and that this
country wiU have to adopt the
gold-standard.
Native manufacturers are in
some cases raising prices on
account of having to buy for-
eign raw material. There is
no panic in business circles
but rather a feeling of amaze-
ment and wonder as regards
the final- result and what
! changes will be effected by
this disturbance of calcula-
tions.
The treasury department
insists there is no thought en-
tertained of adopting the gold
basis. The government will
meet its gold interest at any
cost even to the adoption of a
most rigorous economy and
will pursue a waiting policy.
Many contractors who have
