Drv Goods.

New York, June 1.-The week has shown gradual gain in the market for dry goods. There has been added strength in print cloths and this has a benifcial effect on the staple cotton market, particularly in the better prices which are quoted all around. Export goods on the other hand are attracting less interest than formerly and the weeks sales have been light. Other staple cottons show unchanged results. Bleached goods are quiet and without fea- ture.

R., which continued to advance under large purchases. Houseman has been buyer all around, followed by Moore & Schley and Bell and London. London bought and sold about the same amount Great confidence Is expressed that the quick recovery from yesterdays decline means a much higher range of prices for-e.ie general market. While earnings of the prominent roads keep up to such phenomenal figures we can have but small reactions, which advantage should be taken to buy good securities.

Near delivery improved to points shortly after the. call on a few scattering buying orders and scarcity of sellers, but traders soon deserted the pit, leaving the market fin a nerveless condition.

Paine, Murphy & Co.'S Grain Letter

Birmingham, June 4.-After the advance in the price on curb last night. there was feeling that cables would be onsiderably higher this morning owing to unfavo able reports on the Russian crop and the bad weather in France and the advance in prices in Berlin. Liverpool showed only a nominal advance. Shipments from beth coasts for the week were 5 500,O00 and worlds shipments increased about Ii ,50l ,000. causing our market to open 12c lower. Crop news will continue to be the factor now at home and abroad. We feel confident that up to the present time most of the reports have been little exaggerated but in the near future we will have reports that are mere reliable. Shorts have covered freely in July the last few days, and the trade seems very leary of putting out any ex- tended lines of that month. Corn continues dull. with light trade.

he said, come to recognize this aues-
ton as one of constitutional construc-
ton, but he felt that the senate was

such decision as would accord with
the facts presented. In conclusion Mr.
Teller declared his intention to stand
in this case by the decision reached by
the senate in the Mantle case III 1892
Mr.. Allen of Nebraska maintained
that in view of precedents which he
cited the fact was established that aft
err the Legislature had been in session
