How we are lessening in our foreign
dry goods import is shown by the returns
for the port of New York. At the same
time our export of products indispensable
to Europe is largely increased. The dry
goods imports at New York the past month
foot up So, 6,0l2, showing decrease as
compared with the same month last year OF
about five hundred thousand dollars. The
amount Of goods thrown upon the market
shows a decrease of SO ,000, 900 as COM
pared with October, 1872, and about $1,-
500. 900 less than in 1871. For the last
ten months the total importations were
$107 ,l10, ,l95, agains $l27 ,401, 1896 for the
corresponding period last year, and $llS,.
537 ,43l in 1871. These figures are a good
indication.
