HOfolN-IIG COnGit1On OF the HOS
III market was not SO satisfactory this
week as it vas when we last wrote.
There have been some important chang
es in prices and the tendency of the
market throughout the week up to the
close of Wednesdays business was
rather'toward lower figures. The effect
which has produced the reaction of
the market here, was the weakening of
the foreign and Northern markets,
while buyers here did not care to sus-
tain there prices in the face of the de-
clines. SO they quietly dropped out Of
the market to let it take its natural
course. At The close of the week the
prces have reached 81 10, these fig
ures show decline of 20 cents per
which now prevail there is an eager
enquiry and it is our opinion that the
reaction, should one take place shortly,
otherwise. Strained continues to be
the principal grade desired in pur-
chases. Finer resins have not been
in much demand. For quotations to-
day see table below. The following

every instance where Juvenile wearing

that we have to consider when fabrics
are purchased from which this depart
nlcl1 Is supplied, is color and dura-

workmanship. II either Of these points
are neglected, the critical eye Of a
woman detects the omission at once.
She knows colcrs, she understands
fabrics, she is practically versed in
the construction If clothing, and will
yield nothing where her excellent
judgment is questioned. She knows
and that IS enough. And II she is
sometimes more am1able if permitted
to have her own way about 1t, facts
are stubborn things" and if careless
ness in the cut or make is apparent,
the manufacturer cannot defend his
work, nor can the salesman do away
with a damaging impression, even II
his employer appreciates his DISPOSE
ton to do SO.
This, then, is the case plainly
stated, and we shall never waste time
trying to fight adverse criticisms
where facts and figures are against us.

The statistics of the Texas cattle
trade show a rapid increase in that
very important branch of business;
The total amount of cattle shipped
over the Atkinson, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railroad for the first seven months
of the present year was 5000, as com
pared with a, 8O0 for the same period
in 1878, showing an increase of more
than II, 900 in that time. September
and October, two of the best months
in the year for cattle shipments, are
not included in these figures, and if
the same ratio is maintained this will
be the heaviest cattle year ON record.
