The New York SIiPping and C0nnserceuI
List of the 24th inst. says of the dry goods
market:
The market for cotton fabrics continues
dull. The decline in prices has been going
on for several weeks, snd, exceptionally
low as most descriptions have fallen, hold
ers do not appear to be inspired with suf-
6cient confidence to give vitality to the
market. Best makes of heavy brown
sheetings and shirtings are selling at log |
l6c, and seconds 74@ up TO 149c. Bleach
ed do. are weak and dropping. New York
Mills are still held at 27Ac, and Wamsutta
22}; but other popular makes are low
and unsettled, ranging all the way from
81 to II, the latter price for White Rock,
Is for Lonsdale, and 2lc for Kearssrge and
Williamsville. Prints steady, at l2C9 l2ac
for American, Aliens, Pacific and
| Sprague's 81 for Wamsutts, and SIC for
kdriaiic. Printing cloths, 74@7B for
! Ga square. The sensation of the week has
been the Injunction issued by Gardiner,
| Brewer & Co. restraining the Amoekeag
Print Company from using their ticker,
which, il appears, they have been in the
habitof doing for the past eleven years. Inc
| Amoskeag Mill has, consequently, sHs-
pended operations temporarily. Other
cottons sympathize with the general de-
precision. Red Cross Wigans are job6iDg
at 14A cents, and Green Star at IA White
Star do, 12A Laconia Brown Cotton Elan
nels bring Is cents Great Falls do,
| 231925; do Bleached Is; Lanark No. 2
Checks, l24 Park Mills No. so, "a Pep
perell Brown Drill are down to l64 La
COMA do, 152; Amoskeags are jobbiDs
both at Is and II, and Massachusetts u at
l44; Mouselin Delaines, l792O. The
WOODEN goods market is demoralized, and
, it is now an open question whether mills
,, can be run on full lime any longer. tx
! eellent fancy cassimeres and coatings from
) some of the best American mills, in good
weight and finish, are selling at from 81 10,
currency, down below 81, or about 60
0 cents net on cost price. Carpets are very
z cheap and dull. Foreign goods, with the
exception of few specialties are very
low, owing TO the general depression and
= the free offerings at public sale, whers
BUYERS have been enabled TO obtain rea
bargains in dress goods, linens. etc.
The New Orleans Times of the 24lf
inst. says; "The stock, by our running
/ statement is now reduced TO 81, Ais bales
! of which it is estimated that 40, 600 are OF
h shipboard or in course of shipment. Wher
we take from the residue the amount hel,
d by factors and spectators for materiall
d higher rates, it leaves only a Unite
y amount for sale, and even of this dimir
II ished balance a considerable amount
10 held at figures above the running raie
g Hence it was general complaint anon
o buyers to-day that they could not find tn
g kinds they wanted, and it was conjecture
20 that had more been opened the bushes
might have been to q fair extent"
