DRY GOODS.

New York. Dec. 27.-The market for dcy
goods reopened after the holidays with
quiet sDot business in progress in cot
ton goods and moderate business through
mail orders. This had no effect upon the
general tone, which continued strong.
Stocks are in such excellent shape as a
rule, that sellers are under no
pressure to look for orders. Regu-
la print cloths are strong at 2$8c, and wide
odds have advanced to the basis of 3Ac
for 3S12-inch, 81 squares. Lightweight
woolens for mems wear are in fair re-
quest. Cotton hosiery duh and irregular.

January A movement this way will oc-
cur if merchants continue TO buy the i'm
mediate deliveries. In short, the local
trade as YET pays no attention to the move
ment, considering that as the crop does
not press, its effect has been discontinued
New York, Dec 27-Paine. Murphy &
Co say of cotton: Cotton was the only
duh market Of the day. The local crowd
were more interested in the great stock
market, and virtually neglected cotton.
Liverpool sent cables half point lower for

ing here was a. Fridays prices, but what
trading was done was on the long side,
>and prices advanced about points. To-
morrow is notice day on January, ana
may cause some activity in other months.
Receipts were fairly liberal, for holidays
and the market looks like a waiting enc
with probability favoring dizziness IN New

Spanish Troops in Cuba Mutiny.

Reports from Puerto Principe and
Nuevitas, Cuba, say that 1000 regular
soldiers mutinied, demanding their
pay before embarking Spain. About
1000 armed soldiers presented them
selves in front of the palace, calling on
the military governor, Emilio March,
for their overdue pay. Thereupon,
Gen. March drew his sword and ordered
them to disband. The soldiers, how
ever, refused to obey, and some of
them threatened the life of Gen.
March, who returned his sword to its
scabbard and told them to kill him if
that was their purpose. The soldiers
then Gained down somewhat and said
they only wanted their money before
embarking. Gen. March promised
them that they would be paid and the
soldiers returned to their quarters.
The cruiser Alfonso XIII, and the gun
boats Condo de Venadito and Infanta
Isabel have proceeded from Havana for
Nuevitas to compel the soldiers to en-
bark, after which they will proceed to
Gibara for like purpose
more serious affair was that at
Havana where the soldiers of the Orden
Publico started a revolt because of ar
rearages and for two days a serious
outbreak was threatened. Gen. Blanco,
however, pacihed them with portion
of the money due them and promised
the rest as soon as possible. Gen.
Blanco then ordered all the foot and
mounted regiments of the Orden Pub
leo to be disbandcd. AS originally
planned, it was intended that the
mutiny should have extended to the
Gardia Civil and the artillery regulars,
and it would in that event have as.
sumcd much graver Importance and
might perhaps have inaugurated
reign Of terror and bloodshcd in the
island.
