THE HORSE AND CARRIAGE TRADE
Both Industries Arc Very Dull and Abso-
1uteiy Featureless.
The horse market is dull and absolutely
without feature and dealers In East Twenty
fourth and Thirteenth streets are correspond
ingly sad In consequence. The holiday sea-
son is bad one for horse dealers. as there are
few persons who drive much during the win
ter season. all the horses not needed for abso-
lutte use being turned out for a few months.
The veteran Isaac H. Dahlman, In East
Twenty fourth street, said yesterday that
there was absolutely nothing doing. and that
he could scarcely recall an occasion when
there was less demand for horses. Tho weekly
auction sales conducted by Messrs. Van Tas-
sell & Kcarney on Tuesday and Friday OF
last week were not attended as we'll rs
usual. and few horses changed hands. The
following are standard quotations in the local
market: Pairs Of matched carriage horses.
$500 to S1.750; teams OF truck or express
horses. 5000 to $500: saddlers. with all the
gaits. $3.50 to $500 each: good drivers. $500
to $3.50: business horses. S175 to $3.50 each I;
and streeters. 500 to $3.50 each.
