Dry Goods.

New York, Nov. 12-There have been nc
further changes In the dry goods market
the general tone of the market remaining
decidedly dull, with very few buyers pres
ent to consummate store trading. Mail or.
ders are also scanty and the general trend
is towards n continuation of the quietude
which has prevailed for the last few weeks
In woolen and worsted goods there is no
change. Supplementary buying for spring
demands is very light and there is little
encouragement in the market as it stands
to-day. In staple cottonS the market con-
tinues dull. with the demand for both
brown and bleached goods very small. even
at the low prices recently made by job
bers for leading lines of bleached cottons
Agents as yet have made no change to COR
respond with these new prices and in many
cases are in a position to Withstand the
pressure brought about by this means.
Print cloths are quiet at 25-16c. In prints
the market Is still very dull.
