New York Dry Goods Market.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-The day closed
with an exceedingly duh market in all de-
partments of trade. The activity noticed
in the earlier part Of the week has almost
subsidized and the tone of the market is
again feverish. A limited demand for
brown sheetings and shirtings, Of standard
weights, was met at current rates. Me-
dunn grades are almost neglected, Cotton
drills are not inquired for, and business in
this class of goods is of no moment.
Stripes and locks very dull and no transac-
tions OF any moment reported. Prints dull
and inactive and quotations remain firm.
Wooiens continue dult and firm with no
ANIMATION reported in any of the different
branches of trade. Foreign goods are
Withdrawn from warehouse in very large
amounts but the opening Of stocks is slow
and no features as yet in the market
worthy of note.
