DRY GOODS MARKET.

NEW YORK OF. lO.-ln consequence OF
a rain storm of great severity until late in
the day aud the Hebrew fast day. exclud-
ing many sellers aud buyers from the
market, the demand has been very light
aud so was new business by spot purchss-
ers. The order demand was also OF limited
proportions. On the other hand very large
sales were reached through forwarding of
all descriptions of goods from the mills
direct TO the markets of purchase. where
by many current wants are being supplied
vet such shipments are not going forward
in the quantities desired by many mar
kets. There are no stocks OF moment with
agents and the tone of the market Is very
steady. Printing cloths quiet at 3 cents
and no sales reported.

tents last night by fire. About twilight
several persons saw there was a light in
the house, but thinking it was a lantern
paid little attention until the flames
burst through the comb of the roof, when
il was too late to attempt to save any
thing. The house contained syrup. grain,
a barrel of wine, some cotton seed and
fertilizer and $500 worth of washing ma
chimes. EVERYTHING consumed was worth
at least $500. 1t was formerly used as a

left in it, among which no doubt there
were some matches, and it is believed

Tenants Bill to Be Introduced.

The Ministers Approve It 49, Evicted
Tenants Bill to Be Introduced.
London, April 12.-The budget was APP
proved by the ministers at the cabinet
meeting to-day.
1t is stated that Mr.. Gladstone will
make his appearance in the House on
Monday, and will be present while the
budget is being introduced by Sir Will
liam Harcourt.
Sir William Harcourt announced in the
House of Commons today that the gov
ernment would introduce the evicted ten
ants bin in the House next Tues
day. This announcement has angered
the Welsh radicals, as it gives the
evicted tenants bill precedence over the
bill for the disestablishment of the
church in Wales. II is reported that sew
eral of them threaten to withdraw their
support from the government, and thus
reduce its already waning ma5ority.
At the political clubs this evening
David Lloyd George and David Alfred
Thomas were said to have given the
liberals notice to-day of their detection.
