dry goods market
There is improvements the trade but the activity
is most shown in foreign silks and domestic prints and
have been large and bring fair demand the job
bers All desirable goods firm in price, but
stock, which is large is sold only sacrifice Heavy
wooens have been imported at Il reduced cost and the
stock here being already large, prices declining Buy
are sparng in their purchases Domestic goods are
rather weaker in price especially daines the holders
which have got alarmed by backwardness trade and
selling reduction in price leading STYLES
in good demand, without change in prices The i'm
poration of German cloths has been large these fail to
command much consumption in the face of overruing
demand for fancy cassmeres All prime qualities are firm
in prices but inferior goods neglected
