which caused temporary check to the up
ward movement. The undertone in the
market is strong and most of the stocks
held firmly. The Post says the advance in
Wabash was caused by report that it is
virtually to be consolidated with Lake
Shore. The Lake Shore people have been
free buyers of this stock. Money easy at
2@3 per cent. State bonds dull and steady.

New YORK Dry Goods Market.
NEW York, Aug. 30.-Dfy goods i'm
I, proved. There is inquiry for all staples
suited to the season, but the market is far
from being active as buyers are holding
back expecting break in prices Of prints,
but printers generally are reluctant to
make concessions; offering high prices is
| prevalent for grey cloth which is claimed
to be scarce; fannels and other classes are
held at much higher prices than last season
1 owing to q scarcity of wool and rapid ad
vance in the price of the same. Importa-
tons ara generally heavy this season, yet it
Ii claimed that goods are not in overstock
as goodly portion is entered here for the
interior and without breaking bulk are
| shipped to distant points, such as Chicago,
Cincinnati, st. Louis, etc. It would be
probably difficult to replace many goods at
present rates, yet the advance is so great
| over last year as to cause buyers to
pause before purchasing beyond their le-
| climate business. In brown sheetings and
shirtiugs there is little or no change to no.
