CHICAGO, March 16.—The Pull- man Co., sleeping car company affil- {ate of Pullman, Inc., today reported gross revenue of $4,231,088 for Jan- uary, compared with $3,722,196 for January, 1934, and net revenue of $89.300 fer the month, compared with (& $315744 net for the same month a vear ago. George A. Kelly. vice president of the company. said the decline in net | revenue compared with the similar period of 1934 was due principally to increased expenses for car main- | tenance. Commodity Price Changes for Week BY H. N. McGILL. McGIll Commodity Service, Inc. rndale, Mass. AUBURNDALE, Mass., March 16 (#).—The most radical decline in commodity prices in many months occurred during the past week. The Editor. ton collapsing sharply under the 12- cent level, which represents the Gov- | ernment loan base. This was a signal for price weakness in other speculative commoedities, not only in agricultural | products but In vegetable oils. Dur- | ing the week only two groups record- ed strength, namely, live stock and | non-ferrous *metals. Seven groups, however, ruled lower, while five re- mained unchanged. Industrial prices moved downward | sharply, caused by a lower price ave- erage for fuels, hides and leather, paint materials and fine textiles. In- dustrial activity also averaged lower as compared with the opening week of the month. Farm Prices Down. Agricultural prices “are now at the lowest point since last July. In addi- tion to sharply lower prices for cotton, lower quotations were also noted in rye and dairy products, particularly butter and eggs. Flaxseed, corn and oats are the only items that averaged | slightly higher than the previous week Live stock prices recorded the only increase of importance. Although the | price trends were mixed, hogs and lambs were lower than the previous | week, but this reaction was more than | counteracted by higher quotations for cattle and sheep. Hides and leather represent another group that declined sharply, reflecting a 1-cent decline in the price of hides. Non-ferrous metals represent the second group to advance as there were s | no declines, and silver and tin ad- | vanced. Paint materials were slightly lower, caused by price weakness in rosin and i | turpentine. Fine Textiles Slump. Fine textiles recorded the greatest proportionate decline of any group, as | in addition to lower quotations for | cotton, yarns and finished goods ruled | lower and the underlying trend of raw silk prices was downward. Vegetable oils turned abruptly down- werd, following a sensational advance | that had continued for over a year. | | The reaction was almost entirely due to a 1-cent decline in cottonseed oil, | ® | although palm oil was down moder- | ately. The only advance was of a fractional nature in China wood oil. Most important price changes in the McGill weekly index (1926 equaling 100) were as follows: Mar. 15, Mar 5.

NEW YORK, March 16 —A decline | of $1.25 to $1.35 a bale in cottcn to- day was attributed to further foreign | selling and renewed liquidation. May deliveries sold off to 1090 or 27 points below Friday's final quotations, { and closed at the Iowest with the gen- eral market ending barely steady at et declines of 22 to 27 points. The opening was weak at a decline of 11 to 19 points in the face of rela- tively steady Liverpool cables. Houses | with foreign connections were active | sellers. It was thought that some of these offerings were due to nervous- ness over the international monetary situation. Offerings were taken by the trade and week end covering. but the market reached the lowest levels in the late trading. awaiting clearance at the end of the week was estimated at 63,000 bales against 150,000 last year.
