Dry Goods.

New York Feb. u.-Tomorrow being holiday in the dry goods market, sellers hastened to close up the weeks trading to- day. Mail orders were quite steady in all branches of the trade.
 The strong tone of goods is well sus- tained. In cotton this is due, no doubt to the firm prices of raw cotton. With woolens there is continued strength in spite of the weakness in the wool market
 Dress goods are irregular, though the demand for staples on the line of Henri- ettas and the like is fairly well developed. With cotton goods the tone remains un- changed. Higher cotton prices have made ctton goods more valuable and sellers are not given to granting concessions under the present conditions. Print cloths are firm at unchanged quotations.

Cotton Letter

By Private Wire to T. G. Hewlett Agt.
 New York. Feb 11.-There was a steady feeling prevalent in cotton and initial sales were accomplished at prices 1 point in de- cline to to points higher. Trading ruled fairly active for quite a time, With fiuc- tuations restricted to range Of to noints. English was about as anticipated and had little influence, and it appeared to be discounted before its arrival. Liverpool representatives were the most extensive sellers throughout the forenoon, but their offerings were absorbed by local bulls ana continental interests considerable DOT lion of the transactions was for the even- ening up of outstanding obligations In view of the two days adjournment The south sold at the start, but later orders while scattered, were chiefly for the pur- chase of cotton. New England advices were of the usual character ana ports re- ceipts were up to expectations.

not wish to get more there until the
disposition of some is settled.
