Dry Goods.

NEW YORK jan 22.-The week closes with a
quiet market in nearly all classes of cotton
goods Woolens show no change Of moment. The
number of buyers in the market through the
week has been a fair They were fairly
liberal buyers too. In jobbing circles the re-
suit has been generally satisfactory good
movement of goods having taken place. Strike
troubles have had disquietng effect on the
local market but the final effect has been to
add strength to the demand for all staple lines
and to sustain prices. The advance in print
cloths has helped the general market. Brown
and bIeached goods are firm at the quoted prices
prevailing and colored coarse cottons show no
weakening. Prints have gained in interest dur
ing the week the latter part OF it showing much
better results than the early part. Print cloths
are firm. The bids for extras at 2lsc plus l per
cent are refused by manufacturers. Odd grades
are selling on basis of 3-16c for extras, and
the demand is of fair proportions.

LONDON. Jan 22.-While events are
moving with somewhat dramatic rapidity
in the far East and complications may any
mentous dangers, when the known facts
and the position of affairs analysed.
there is really not much reason at tie
present moment to suppose that solution
of the crisis will be found in a resort to
war. There is reason to believe that dipio-
matte circles do not fear that it will be
necessary to appeal to arms unless Japan
precipitates trouble. SO far the Euro
pean powers are concerned the diplomats
throughout are satisfied that the Chinese
question will not break the peace of the
world but they have always feared that
Japan would prove firebrand. Unless she
can be restrained from impetuous action,
the departure of her fleet from Yokohama
to-day FOR Chinese waters may prove to
be the striking of the match which may
lead to q dreaded confiagration.
