New York Dry Goods Market.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE extreme
heat has had it effect on the dry goods
market for to-day. No new features are
reported in any of the departments of the
trade, and but few transactions have occur
red worthy of note. Brown sheetings and
shirtings were in moderate request, and es-
pecially for standard weights, which were
supplied at full. Medium grades were I
without much enquiry, and dull Of sale.
Bleached goods were without much anima-
ton, yet some fair sales are reported in GER
tain fayorite works. Cotton drills remain
dull and inactive, but firm al quotations.
Ticks, stripes and checks are in better re-
quest, and more business is being done in
these goods at late revised quotations.
WoOlens are without much activity for the
moment, but fancy cashmere OF decided
character and pattern are being picked up
in small lots by city jobbers. Flannels con-
tinue fairly active at a new schedule of
prices.
