New York Dry Goods Market
New YORK, Oct. 15.-The dry goods
general market is lacking in animation,
and some jobbing houses have concluded
to sell goods based on the decline in cotton
and are offering delaines which, while
inviting custom, are enough TO make
agents who were sold ahead on everything
under a system of protection as mad as q
March hare. Wamsutta brands of bleach
ed Canton fannels are offered by the case
to-day at 12c; 13c by the piece is an awful
| low figure. Stewards ia the house. They
| also offer Harrisburg sheetings, yard wide,
| by the bale, as low as 102c, worth III or
114c by the piece. The Portsmouth at
| 94c are very low, and so are the Conti-
mental @ at 12kc and Lawrence x x at
| 131c This decline in prices at this mo-
ment will create sad havoc with the trade,
1 for it promises to result in loss instead of
gain to many who had bought their sup
plies. Thus far the season has been pros
porous enough with trade, but the future
loaks more gloomy.
