DRY GOODS.

New York, Nov. 10.-Eividences of con-
tinued weakness in the dry goods market
prevails. Concessions are being made
constantly in nearly all lines of cotton tex
tile fabrics. These reductions show a de-
sire on the part of both first and second
hand dealers to effect a movement in
stocks at as early a date as possible. The
unreasonable weather conditions are the
primary cause of depression in the market,
and these have continued to such an ex-
tent that Ii is doubtful whether a complete
recovery will be possible. The market is
by no means satisfactory. This is felt in
WOODEN and worsted fabrics both for mems
wear and in dress goods, to no small de-
gree. The supplementary demand is still
very light. and the requests for heavy
goods for next year are still withheld,
pending a settlement of the weather and
price problems. In staple cottons the bus
mess passing has been of very light pro-
portions. The export demand is still quite
light and there are, in fact. no really re-
assuring features in the market

stun that they had covered yesterday
Prices yielded at once, and until shortly
before, the close. the undertone was deci-
dedly soft. Receipts were quite full and
the outside business was small The bu-
reau report was delayed until Friday
noon, owing to lateness of returns from
important sections. In the last fifteen
minutes the execution of some large local
and New Orleans buying orders turned
the market firm again. January opened
at 5.6fc; advanced to $3.50; declined to
5.62c; rallied to $500, and closed at 5.654
5.66c, with the tone of the market steady.

APPARENTLY the Immigration bill,
which died under one of the las oil
Cleveland's long line OF vetofs, will be
y of the first important measures to
become law after the holidays. M
especial attempt has been made to OBJ.
viate the ingenious objections raised ir
the veto message, its sponsors seeming
to conide that Mr.. Mckinley will be
less critical. 1t Is perfectly true. as
Mr.. Cleveland said, that the educs-
tional qualification imposed upon i'm
migrants would keep out some OF the
best and let in some of the worst. 1t
would shut cut many a thrifty, hard
working, healthy peasant who could
not read and let IN many a noisy, loaf
ing anarchist who could. The best
thing about the bill is that it comm is
US to the policy OF discriminating
among immigrants. and that, imper-
feet as it lie. it will keep out soma un-
desirable ones.

LET the shoe maker stuck to bis last,
says an old proverd, thus reinforcing
the assurances that too many irons in
the FIRE leave some to burn, and that a
Jack at all trades Is good at none.
The failure Of two great banks in
Philadelphia. the other day, fully
emphasizes these statements. The
president OF these banks was engaged
10 all kinds of trades at the same time,
from politics to wood pulp, and from
banking to the milk business; while
he was owner of the Philadelphia
Record, one of the best paying news
papers In the United States.

THE strike of the engineers on the
Allan steamship line has brought out
the fact that the companies engaged in
transatlantic trade. have the policy of
putting none but Britons on guard in
the engine oom and. stoke hole. All
the Atlantic steamship companies
make two-thirds Of their money Out OF
Americans, but they man their ships
exclusively with British subjects and
buy their supplies in Britain. Even
one line that poses as American and
has received favors from the govern
ment discriminates against American
employees. II the Allans are going to
be stubborn with their men, they
would better hire some American en-
ginesrs.
