NEW YORK, April 2T-In the Dry Goods
market, during the past week, fair trade
fully maintained Imported fabrics have
been fairly active, in both Jobbing and first
class business The stock OF choice styles and
summer goods is extremely limited, and
manufacturers are able 10 make better
prices than at the opening of the season JUS
titled. Brown sheetings have become more
settled, and the trade during the week has
been marked by more animated character.
Bleached sheetings and shirtiDgs also have
been in better request. Standard makes nave
sold close up to the cost OF production. More
animation is visible in the medium and low
er grades. Cotton drills are in moderate re-
quest, but prices not fully sustained. Cam
brics do not appear to be in very liberal re-
quest, and prices are not fairly maintained
Corset jeans are sought aftertn small auanti-
ties, Though there Is little inquiry Tor low
grades. Stripes have not improved materi-
ally, and there is but little call for any but
the best known, and most OF the staple max es
of drills are in good demand the prices being
maintained with hrmuess. Prints are in
good demand for fresh styles, and firm; in
some instances with advancing prices. Cling
hams are in fair demand the best makes
ind ready sales. The supply is fair, and
some makes sold close up 70 the cost OF pro-
duetion. The prices for other grades firm and
unchanged. Cloths have not i'm proved much.
Sales light and confined. Shawls have been
less active, but fair trade vas done during the
entire week and a betttr business is looked
for. The SUPPLY of Ristorf's have been great
~ reduced, and these shawls seem likely TO
be sold out by another week.
