New York Dry Goods Market.
NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The transactions
| for the day for most classes of domestic

nd fI1o
activity. Standard sheetings are still held
by agents at former quotations, but sales
continue to be made in the street through
brokers at q slight concession. Medium
grades continue in fair request at asking
rates. Bleached goods are IN better demand
and some fair transactions are reported for
the day. Cotton drills; little more activi-
ty has been developed in these goods, but
sales are unimportant. Cotton fannels are
doing better, but sales are light, and they
still lack animation. Wool fannels are
more active, Blu domestics are without
much enquiry. Ticks, stripes and checks
are in better request, and this market is
improving in demand. Prints continue &C
tive at current rates. Woolens dull without
any special features.
