DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK, July 2.--The tone Of
the market shows more firmness in
brown cottons in some quarters, manu-
facturers being influenced by the con-
tinued rise in the price of cotton. There
is no better demand than before in any
direction, business being on limited
scale throughout. Print cloths are ne
elected. The woollen goods division
is dull, without special feature.

FINANCE IND TRADE.

NEW YORK, July 2.-The CONNER

gram is as follows.
The markets here were depressed and
nervous to-day under the influence OF
the news from China, and dealings were
on small scale and altogether in the
hands of professionals.
Americans were sold in the belief that
Berlin would unload on account Of the
German Lloyd fire, which, 1t was
thought, would disturb German indus
trials anew. When it was discovered
that Germany was not inclined TO sell
much the market rallied, stimulated by
the news that the drought in the north
western wheat fields of America had
been broken.
The bank sold 6 IS, 900 gold in French
coin and lost 100000 to Roumania
Money was very easy, considering the
half yearly settlements and the large
amount due the bank was entirely re-
paid. Silver was weak. Bazaar prices
declining. The exchange will be closed
on Saturday.
The fortnightly statistics of copper
show that there has been virtually no
change since the last report.

SIGNALING AT NIGHT.
Successful Experiment with Kite
and Search Light, at Bayonne,
New Jersey.

A system Of night signaling with
flags held up by kites and lighted by
suspended search-light was tried
some time ago at Bayonne, N. j.,
says Electricity.
The search-light was of about 100
candle power, and was suspended
within a few feet Of the flags. The
light was sent up at quarter to
seven o'clock, hung two feet below the
flags, each of which was two feet
square. Both light and flags were
supported by one nine-toot and one
seven-foot kite The flags were fas-
tened 10 the kite cable by perpendicu-
lar staffs. To light the flags the
search-light was rigidly braced on
the kite cable in such a position that
1t pointed straight slSyward AS the
kites carried the cable upward, the
glare Of the fiery pencil passed be-
meath the flying kites and upward into
space. The rapid futtering Of the
