New York Dry Goods Market.
From the Commercial Bulletin, April l3.
Domestic DRY GooDs.-Thc market
for cotton goods presents no features Of
special interest. There is well sus-
tained demand for all leading brands of
brown. bleached and colored cOttOns, and
with the exception Of low priced bleach
ed shirtlngs, which are in little request,
prices are maintained with trmness in
first hands, but jobbing rates are irregu-
lar and several brands of brown and
bleached cottons are selling by the piece
for less than agents package prices. This
system of "cutting' prices has become
necessary, in order to meet the brisk
competition of Western houses, who are
competing to a greater extent than ever
for the New York jobbing trade, by
quoting by circular and otherwise excep-
tionally low figures.
PRGNTs.-There is a continuous and
brisk demand for plaid prints, desirable
STYLES of which are freely taken by the
trade. Fancy and sideband prints in
medium light colorings are in fair re-
quest, and shirting are again more active
Prices are generally unchanged in first
hands, but Aliens double pinks have
been subjected TO Il reduction of Ic, and
are now quoted at &c less than the regular
trade discount, at which price they are
very good purchase.
GINGHAMs OF the best standard makes
are still closely sold up in first hands. but
the lower grades are beginning to accu-
mulate somewhat, although prices are
unchanged.
DRESS GOODS are in moderate request
from first hands, in both worsted and
cotton makes, plaid styles of the latter
being most active.
/ WooLES GOODS continue quiet with
the agents but a fair jobbing trade in
fancy cassimeres, suitings and worstea
coatings is progressing. Medium grade
Kentucky jeans are fairly active.
