NEW YORK DRY-GooDs MARKET


NEW YORK, Dec. 15-The market Tor
dry goods shows no Improvement Store
trading and shipping are very light, ana
Judging from appearances in the dry goods
district the market is a very uninteresting
one. Mail orders do not help out much
In any line Spring buying has not set
in vet to any appreciate extent. Jobbers
report an intermittent call for actual ne
cessIties and the only department which
shows anything like a fair degree OF ac-
tivity is that of holiday goods. which are
bought with considerable freedom, al
though II IS a question whether they are
selling as actively as has been the case
for several years back In staple cottons
at first hands the feature has been the
reduction Of Hill Al bleached cottons and
half-bleachcd cottons to 5Ac. per yard.
This is the first of the promised reduc-
lions I'm beached cOttons, and Is liable
to be followed in various quarters by
further slumps in prices. In print cloths
there has been o movement of extras at
PIC.

than anticipated. The percentage Of
black nuts is about 30 per cent, which
keeps the price down.
