DRY GOODS

Bradstreet's.
The Boston market continues active,
with general conditions strong. Cot
ton goods are in very strong position
because of the advance in the cost of
raw cotton and the fact that the mills
are heavily sold ahead on brown and
gray goods. Most Of the mills on
brown and gray goods are contract
ed ahead for a good part of the first
half of next year, and it looks as though
there will be a shortage of goods on
the spring trade. Printed fabrics are
going well. with staple ginghams
steady. Dress woolens are jobbing
spring orders have been booked by
mill agents. Values tend higher Mems
wear woolens are heavily ordered for
spring and values are working higher
on some kinds. The outlook is very
strong.
NEW YORK, October THE mark
ct closes the week very strong in all
lines of staple cottons, and without
open advances prices are steadily
tending upward. The demand for brown
bleached and coarse colored cottons is
in excess of what sellers are disposed TO
accommodate. Sales of print cloths
this week were very large, probably
1000, 600 pieces regulars and odds. Mar
ket closing with strong upwawrd ten
dency. Staple prints advancing, but
fancies irregular and dull. Ginghams
strong. Cotton yarns very strong in
all numbers and advanced 14G15c on
the week without checking buyers
Mems wear worsteds tending upward.
Dress goods selling at firm prices.

and California woods were taken, while
good call for secured lots is noted.
The latter are selling at about so cents
for fine medium and fine territory and
Texas woods, while lots sold in cAe
grease will cost the buyer nearer $50
SO cents, with staple woods at 56@60
cents. The recent demand has been for
lots containing a good proportion OF
staple, and strictly clothing grades are
quiet. The London sale has shown
some weakness owing to the South Afri-
can war trouble, but the close is again
firIler. The sale closed in London Oc-
tober 6. Americans bought some cross
bred woods at the sale. Carpet woods
are quiet but steady.
