DRY GOODS MARKET.

New York, May 16.-There were fair
sales reported in several departments of
the dry goods market today and the gen.
eral tone seemed improved in consequence
The market for print cloths in particular
shows stronger conditions. Bids made at
the previous quotation are refused by the
manufacturers. In staple cottons the fea-
ture of the market is the export demand,
which has taken on considerable activity
within the last few days. There is also
a strong market for sheetings and drills
suitable for foreign consumption and
some sellers are holding goods at d stinct
advance. At l 15-16c regular print cloths
are not easily obtainable. Ordered goods
are said to be even stronger Print cot
tons show no particular strength.

MRS. KENNA OF WEST VIRGINIA.

How she Came to BE Postmistress at
Charieston--The Selection of Her
Successor in Office.
Mrs. kenna, widow of United
States Senator John E. Kenna, was
appointed postmistress at Charleston
by President Cleveland soon after her
husbands death. At the same time
Congress voted her the usual $4,000
allowed to the widows of members.
Outside of these two favors Mrs.
Kenna's fortune was modest one,
for her brilliant husband was one of
these open-handed princes of good
fellows whose ear was never deaf TO
the appeal of suffering friend. and
on whose generosity many preyed who
had no license whatever to do SO.
Senator Kenna was the beau ideal
OF every mountaineer in West Virgin
ia. Big and strong, daring and fear
less, gifted with a flow of oratory
which, combined with the natural
poetry in the man, made him veri-
table ''spell- binder" the men Of the
mountains would flock for miles when
1t was known that he was to speak.
And then he could handle 9'f1ddle, T"
and more than once he ''fiddled" his
way into legislative halls, the Senate
of the United States included. Ken
Ma was just as much at home in So
ciety'S innermost circles as he was in
the mountains, and just as welcome,
too, for he made himself a favorite
wherever he went, and it will be a
long day before he is excluded from
the lisf OF heroes worshiped by West
Virginians
Senator Kenna's wife was Anna
Benninghaus, of Wheeling a gradu-
ate Of Monde Chantal academy, near
Wheeling where Kenna first met her in
her younger days, and she had never
lost her attractiveness. Sheshared at
Washington her husbands popularity,
and when it came to confirming her
as posJnistress at Charleston there
was not a moments delay. Most of
the Senators knew their dead col
leagues widow personally, and if
they did not the affection they had
for him actuated them to act quickly
That was something like five years
ago. Civil service, its scope of ac-
ton materially widened by President
Cleveland, leaves but a small amount
of patronage compared with what it
used to be, and the Charleston post
office is plum. Sentiment has been
made to disappear by practical poll
tics, and A. o. Petty, a Republican
worker, will be appointed to the place
Mrs. Kenna has held. 1t is said that
Mrs. Kenna will again take up her
residence at Washington to educate
her children. -Pittsburg Times.
