NEW York DRY GOODS.
NEW YORK. March 16.-The dry goods
market is decidedly irregular. Business Is
done by spurts and jerks In most cotton goods
lines and conditionsl are such that the market
is liable to show almost ANY turn within the
near future, without astonishing operators.
Jobbers In all grades continue to report fair
business. Print cloths are quoted at 21sc, but
the bids for extras are at only 2 1-16 and there
are not many of them at that

Frontier Trouble,

NANCY, March ia German captain of
customs guards and one of his subordinates
crossed the fontier on Monday, advancing
fifteen yards beyond the boundary line. A
body of French workmen attempted to ar
rest the Germans, and one of the workmen
struck the German officer with a stick The
officer drew his sword, and ordered his su-
coordinate to load his rifle. Both of the Ger
mans then retreated to the boundary, where
they stopped and confronted the Frenchmen.
The affair is being investigated.

CALIFORNIA CROPS.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 16.-Reports from
all sections of California show that the crop
conditions throughout the state are critical.
A heavy rain within the next few days would
save the grain on thousands of acres of
wheat and barley and insure good crops in
many places, where otherwise there will be
scant harvests.
The Sacramento valley seems to be the
most favored portion Of the northern part
of the state, and the outlook for large yields
of fruit and grain is good. Recent showers
in the San Joaquin valley and southern coun-
ties have improved conditions greatly. The
damage to fruit by the frosts Of last Sun
day is less than was first feared.

Nearly two years ago Colonel ]. B. Hughes

tobacco manufacturers. have devoted al
most their entire tirue to the work OF per-
feeling this organization and bringing the
manufacturers together.
A month before the declaration OF war
against Spain s2S, 10000 in cash, the
amount necessary to begin the transfer OF
the properties, was maize ready, but the
prospect OF war frustrated all plans. Two
OF the largest life insurance companies In
New York City at one time contracted to
take upwards OF $40, O00O 900 in the first
ciates had arranged to place half as much
more. Coionel Hughes and MIR. Fletcher
