COMPLIED BY THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

the trade since our last report.
Our wholesale merchants have full stocks
on hand, and are rapidly making room for
still heavier supplies for the Fall and Win

The indications now are, that our whole
sale houses will do a much heavier busi-

The market has been quiet during the

note in prices is decline of lc on prints
The prices of leading articles we note as

ton, and prices, although unchanged, are
in many cases merely nominal.
MEMS AND Boys WEAR--There has been
some improvement in this line, although
the market cannot be called active. Jeans
