EGYPTIAN i hi i. in. 

 From Alexandria, Egypt, we have the following report: The 

 first week in July passed with little interest being taken in the 

 market, which reflects the general trade dullness. The spot mar- 

 ket is inactive, although a limited demand for Uppers was noticed. 

 There was little change recorded by the middle of the month 

 .iid speculation is conspicuous ly it- ilisenci Somi Julj all 

 were bought back by the trade, owing to a limited demand 

 from America. Spot prices are unchanged, although consider- 

 able business has been done. The export- of the week ending 

 June 26, 1915, were 3,700 Tjs. against ''.500 Bs. a year ago I rop 

 reports are very satisfactory. 



COTTON FABRK S. 



July lias been a very quiet month and the domestic fabric 

 market would be called stagnant if it were not for the war 

 orders. Mills that would be running on half time or shut down 

 altogether are busy on goods for export. Ducks especially 

 have been in good demand for foreign account. Domestic busi- 

 ness has been strictly routine during the past month and prices 

 of fabrics in general have not changed. 



The export embargo on burlaps from Calcutta is being strictly 

 enforced by Great Britain. This has resulted in lower prices on 

 the Calcutta market, and the uncertainty of shipments has 

 caused a practical stagnation in the New York trade. Trading 

 was quiet and limited to small orders for emergency require- 

 ments. 



For the eleven months ending May 31, 1915, there was 353.- 

 538,495 pounds of burlap, valued at $25,031,432, imported into 

 the United States, against 335,985,932 pounds, valued at $28,447,- 

 882, for the same period in 1914.
