New York Dry Goods Market
NEW YORK Feb. S.-The high rates of
freights from here to distant points in the
West. as compared with that on lines from
Philadelphia and Baltimore, checks the
Western trade. There have been one or
two meetings Of railroad rings in regard TO
this monopoly, but they have not as yet
arrived at anything definite; but we IN
derstand the Erie road has modified the
rates somewhat, and we look for a general
revision of the tariff ere long, for until
this occurs we cannot expect any life in
business. The following changes in the
prices of staple goods have come unds-
our observation to-day: Nevada A. brown
