DRY GOODS.

New York, May 5.--The dry goods
market to-day was quiet, following the
partially observed holiday of yester-
Day At first hands the market shows
no variation. Interest has centered in
print cloths recently, and the reported
sale Of $4,000 pieces outside the Fall
River market at II 5-16c has caused
some excitement among cotton goods
dealers. Other staple cottons are quiet
in all grades. Bleached goods show
no Improvement and pric conditions
are unaltered Brown sheetings and
shiTtings are still quiet Ducks and
Osnaburgs are strongly under the in
fiuence of government needs. Goods
for export show no change in any
grade. They are bought with some
activity Coarse colored goods where
unaffected by wa rneeds, are quiet.
Printed goods show no change. Stocks
are in some cases well cleared out.
Ginghams are strong and active.

Chicago, May 5.-Charles H. Sum

Telegraph Company, was interviewed
today concerning the interruption of
the cable between Hong Kong and Ma
Mia. Mr.. Summers said that the Hong
Kong Manila cable in direct line would
be six hundred and twenty-eight miles
long, but as there is undoubtedly some
slack, it is doubtless seven hundred
miles long. With delicate instruments,
such as cable companies have, the break
the cable could be located within half
mile. The test would undoubtedly

English government is supposed to

repairing cables To illustrate how
close these tests can be made by deli

cable at the Straits of Mackinaw. The
Macknaw cable is about five miles
lCng. From the southern shore a test

was located within three feet It is Mr.
summers opinion that tests have been
made correctly, locating within fifty
miles of Manila the break in the Hong
Kong cable The delay in repair may

graphing machinery for pulling up the
cable, which may be laid at a very
