DRY GOODS MARKET.
Although prices for various classes
goods have undoubtedly touched low
water mark, business Is nevertheless
still without much snap. The tenden-
cy of prices is wholly in buyers favor,
but beyond an equalization in values
there is no further break in any class
of fabrics. The greatest depression now
is in unbleached sheetings and shirt
ings, and in medium grades of bleached
muslins. We quote Atlantic a heavy
