"CANTON RAW SILK.

FORTNIGHTLY REPORT.

Messrs. T. E. Griffith, Ltd., in a recent report on the Canton w silk market state that during the Arst part of March some contracts were made in new season silk for May/June shipment. at $20 below the parity for spot sk. Apart from these sales, the market was very quiet, with little demand forthcoming from America and Europe.

These cheap sales in new senson silk seem to have affected the home markets, where buyers are now offering lower prices also for old son silk. This has induced holders to meet buyers, and prices at the close show a fair decline.
