Several hundred people were attracted
20 the rive. side this afternoon by the
report thas the wreck of the Inflated

rumor. and II Is not likely that the old
hull win be blown up within the next

DO nothing with the vessel. and II haf
been abandoned by the Old Dominion

The Dry-Goods Market.

NEW YORK, July 25.-Business was
brought TO an early close to-day. There
was nothing to improve ths previously
prevailing dulness. II can hardly be said
that the week has been of a disappoint-
ing character In the primary market. as
few sellers were looking for an spprecia-
bic Improvement in demand. but In the
jobbing trade II closed with some unful-
filled expectations. There has been no
appreolable change In prices.
