DRY GOODS MARKET.

New York, Jan. 26.-Returns showed
comparatively fair results in all lines Of
dry goods today. The market for staple
cottons is still featureiess, but there is n
decided strength about all branches Of
cotton goods, which SUBSTANCES sellers in
their opinion that better things are TO be
expected. The market for print cloths
holds it's own well. The sales of odd
goods are of very fair proportions and
prices are well sustained. These are the
encouraging points in the market. The
most discouraging feature is the back
Wardness of buyers.

EXCLUDING THE PUBLIC
From Trials Because Naughty
Things are in Evidence.
HAS ANOTHER SIDE TO 1T
involves a Constitutional
Right of Defendants.

Buffalo. n. Y, Jan. 26.-The right Of
court TO exclude the general public from
a trial because of the obscene or indecent
character Of the evidence expected was
today treated in an opinion handed down
by Justice Titus of the supreme court,
in the case of the people against William
z. Hall. Hall was tried in Rochester for
extortion. and the county judge shut out
the newspaper reporters and every one
but the witnesses. holding that the public
good required that this be done on ac-
count of the disgusting and revolving
nature o fthe testimony.
An application was made to Justice IT,
tus for certifcation OF reasonable doubt
of the guilt of Hall, the argument being
made that he had been denied his consti-
tutional right of a speedy and public
trial"
Justice Titus granted the certification.
