NAVAL STORES.

Spirits Turpentine-The past week in the
spirits turpentine market showed dispo-
sition on the part of buyers to bear prices
and they succeeded on several days in
getting the staple at their own price. The
market on Saturday rose to S012c, where it
remained until Tuesday, when decline Of
Ac took place. This was followed by an
other decline to soc on Wednesday, with
several buyers bidding only 2934c. Sales
were made at 294c on Thursday, and the
market closed at 29%4c bid. To-day the
market was firm at 29%c, with a good de-
mand, and reported sales of 1,572 casks.
Rosin-The rosn market was higher for
pale grades, and the demand was good dur
ing the entire week. Water white sold at
So co a barrel, or 45c above the quota ton
on that grade year ago. The market to-
day was firm, the only change being a
part advance of sc on F grade. The re-
ported sales were 3,547 barrels.

DRY GOODS.

New York, Oct 22.-The dry goods mar
ket is still without feature of moment
the only change in the situation being a
slight increase noticed in the bids for eX-
port goods This is not believed to be any
radical change in the wants of export buy
ers but simply a demand of the moment
which has TO be covered. Tips coming
from various sections of the country show
that distribution is somewhat freer than
1t has been for the last few days, but it IS
by no means active in any section. The
market still shows tendencies toward
weakness in all cotton lines, though no
openly avowed reductions in prices have
been noted. Concessions are, however
made quietly in many instances where the
stocks are still heavy, and the offerings
from buyers of weight enough to make
it an object of particular attention in the
bidding Wooden goods and worsteds In
both mems wear fabrics and dress goods
are strong feature of the market.

Awf'ully Mixed.

The editor of a Cleveland newspaper
lives in a house located between a
Methodist church and dance hall.
One evening recently there was a gath
ering in both places. 1t being too warm
for comfort indoors, the editor sat on
the veranda and took in the situation.
This is what he heard
"Let us pray-all salute-we beseech
thee to join hands and draw near-circle
to the left-listen to us-frst four for
ward and back-as we-all promenade
-kneel before the Ambulance all
present your petition grand right and
left-for Christ's sake-seat your part
ners." The editor was more than sad
dened at the degeneration of the village
and went and joined the base ball club
in order to be neutral.
