SEVERAL LINES ARE LOWER
Mill Disposed to Hold Price Down
as Long as Tbej Have
Wools in Hand.
The opening of the wool goods eeasoa
disclosed lower trend of goods prices.
aorwlthstanding the strength of the mar
ket for the raw material.
At ths formal opening ?or fall by the
largest manufacturer la the east, prices
showed some reductions, aotably oa some
of the staple worsteds, where price con
cessions ranging from To to 12Ho a
yard were noted. On some of the wool
oioaklngs and heary woolen dress goods
price concessions were particularly notice
able. On many lines no changes were
made, and the failure to advancs prices
vss accepted ss aa ad mi sot on that reduc
tions were conceded.
Tbs raw wool markets havt been rising
o steadily of lata all orcr Lhe world that
it was expected In many quarters that ad
vancea In prices could not be avoided.
SHini to have been decided that the new
prices on a somewhat lower level sha-I
continue so long as thers la -wool In hand
Co fill orders, Mill agents were asking
for hiit her prices, and the change Is rec
ognized as an acknowledgment of the ne
cessity for attractive prices it mill orders
are to be ftlrauisted.
Buyers of wool- dress goods snd cloak
In operated more promptly than others
Some of the fine overcoating fabrics were
also ordered freely on the f:rst few days.
Less attention was given to the cheaper
overcoating, and all-wool goods attracted
mors buyers, as a rule, than worsted
fabrics.
The volume of Idle machinery In wool
goods centers has been increasing In the
past few weeks. The restriction of trade
Is due to the unsatisfactory prices asked
for made-up goods. This is a condition re
sulting from high costs of production In
cutting houses, and a movement Is now
under way to se if these costs cannot be
reduced before the fall maktng-up season
starts.

Tho 1V21 wheat harvest of Greater Roq

bushels from . 1 49.000 a ere a. according
to a cable received from the representative
of the United State department of agrt
cluiuro In southeastern Europe. This
amount U only a tittis mors than ha:f the
pre-war five-year average of 174.OOw.O00

The requirements for food and seed
during tho present yesr are estimated at
approximately g7.o0n.om bushels. This
would leavo aa exportable surplus of leas

one-fifth f the amount formerly exported
from old Roumsnla alone. During the five
