Traders Holding OFF on Account Of hol-

Goods, Etc.
(By the Associated Press. }

New York, May 29.-The dry goods mar
ket has shown more willingness on the
part of buyers to accept the advances
which have been made during the week.
Sellers are more independent than ever
and advices from the mills are that un-
less the new schedule of prices is OBJ
tanned the mills will be- closed. COmpul-
sorry curtailment will be necessary IN
great many instances on account OF the
short supply of cotton.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, May 29.-The cotton mar
ket opened easy at decline of to II
points under rather disappointing cables
and sold still a little lower, reaching a
level 8 to / 6points below the closing
of yesterday with July selling at ll.OS
August at 1888 and September at 9.97
Almost Immediately, however, the market
was rallied sharply under too much ram
reported in oklahoma, small port receipts
for the day and an unfavOrable private
estimate of crop conditions which placed
the average condition at about 70 per
cent compared with 91.9 per cent conf
piled by Bradstreet from practically the
same source as that oil last year.
The same authority places the increase
is fresh apprehensions as 70 the proba- le
showing for government report on June
4th and shorts covering, July sold up &c
&c. August to 1867 and September to
1906. Then came a period of irregularitv
with fluctuations generally unimportant
and prices ranging from about 1 to 3
points under Thursdays close. Speculation
was very quiet and the trading was large
" Of an evening-up character in view
of the approaching holidays with the
Liverpool market which will be closed
on Monday and also on June 9Th and 9Th.
In the last hour there was a little more
activity and some further covering which
rallied prices to about the best of the
day but this was fol lowed by renewed
realizing and the market was finally quiet
at net unchanged prices to decline of
