but very little had been done at the close.
Ten-forfies firm. Stocks opened steady
and tolerably active. A prominent banker
who has been buying Reading largely to-
day was unable to meet contracts, and
failed. This gives his brokers places for
some 80, 900 or 40, 900 shares, which ne had
ordered to be bought, and the consequence
was that some Of them had to fail, which
caused decline in that stock offs per cent,
but late in the day rallied about per cent.

New York Dry Goods Market
NEW York, Jan. 21.-The dry goods
market is without much animation and
prices steady at 13c for Atlsntics, Appleton
and heavy brown sheetings; 1910 for
Atlantic, d do, l04c for ' shirtings; IL !
for Augusta sheesings; 10tc for Broadway;

Nm; 1910 for do @; l04c for do B B; 10c
for Wand; 9tc for L blesched. Winston's
popular makes are in light supply and fair
REQUEST with a disposition to advance
prices the moment the trade revives q
little. We quote New York mills buoyant
at zoe; Nianville and Wamsutta at 19c;
Tuscarora 18c. Prints-Loom and Ma
sonville 15c. Monadnook &c; Bleached
sbeetines 25c; do 124e; do 40c. Printing
cloths are scarce and high being held at
74c. while they can be made at profit at
81 il not 64c. For reasons obvious grey
cloths are plenty enough, but have been
bought up by large dealers for double
object. the most important of which Is to
keep up or put up prices. Printed calicoes
conseouently, and all the leading brands
of prints are now held firmly at lie, and
few makes such as Dunnels at III Oocheco
will perhaps go TO 12c, yet while Spragues
can be bought at lie, and as they are
acknowledged the best first class light
work. it will be difficult to sell any fabrics
nuch If ANYTHING higher unless on extended
time Ginehams steady and hold their
own. they are invariably better than
prints. vet they are selling at prices which |
command high profit. All colored cottons
eaem very high in price, which is attributa-
ble in a great measure TO the high prices
and hioh duties on dyes. Yet with no pro-
dnction in mills, in consequence Of the
drouoht. all leading makes keep well sold
mn. SO that the prospect of any material
reduction in rates appears far In the dis
lance.
