Dry Goods,

Matters were quiet in this line to-day
nothing of importance having
.ranspired in the way of sales or fluctuations
prices. Late New York advices say; "The
trade for the season Is about over, and few
ord re- are being taken. Most of the houses
are busy making preparations for the fal
trade. They feel fairly satisfied with the
spring business, and there Is u hopeful tone
among the trade as elections are generally
good and the outlook for the future favor
able.'

Congressman Page Interviewed.

New YoRx. May l6. - Tribune
reporter yesterday interviewed Congress
man PsRe, who said that the delay In
the ratification Of the Chinese treaty
had not caused much angry feeling
among the people Of Caliiornia because
they believed that the Senate would rat
lily In time to have 1t reach China before
the November limit. Now that Il had
been passed be thought the agitation
against the Chinese would quiet down to
allow a fair trial Of the treaty. When
urged to express his opinion upon the
recent action OF the President, Page
said the people Of the Pacific coast are
warm admirers OF Garfield, Blaine and
Conkling. They do not care for the
local issues which are foremost In New
York State. but judge the men from .
national point OF view sooner. The
feeling Is one Of regret rather than Of
judgment on the acts OF either.
What verdict do you think the peo-
Pile OF your State would pronounce u
the name OF Robertson should either be
defeated or Withdrawn ?"
1t 10 not my intention to pass judg.
ment upon what might be-. know and
admire Garfield and Conkling. and all I
can say 10 I regret very much that the
issue has been raised. As . Republican
/ want what 10 best for the success Of the
Republican party. What 10 best under
the circumstances 10 hard to say. II
has now gone to that point, however,
that whatever the result may be. some
body 10 going to get hurt"
