NEW YORK DRY-GOODS MARKET.
NEW YORK, November 20.-The week
closed without any change for the better
In the situation for dry-goods, in either
cotton or woollen goods. The demand
ruled light all through the week, both IN
store-dealings and in mail-orders. 1t is
rumored that bcling on some lines is
a little freer than in the early part or
the week. but evidences Of this fact are
hard to run 10 earth, sellers Delng very
conservative in all their statements with
regard TO the market in any branch: Job,
hers continued to do the small scattered
business of last week. sales or small
amounts variously distributed being re-
ported In nearly all departments. Coliec-
lions were reported fair. The demand for
woollens was heightened by the reluctance
OF sellers to fix prices for the new goods.
In staples there was no change In the de-
mand.
