NEM YORK nRY GOOns.

New York. Dec. 24.-The cotton goods market was on the dull side for the day. idence two weeks back. Converters and cut ters will take goods in small lots. but they mills are in no hurry to make. The jobbers will begin their clearance sales Thursday morning The event will offer retailers special opportunities for their January and February business.
 The impression is found in some guar ters of the print cloth market that low prices have been over discounted in the sales between second hands and that In another week 1t will be apparent that mills cannot accept new business on the terms now offered unless there is a very radical change Tn the cost of production.

NEW YORK COTTON.


 New York. Dec. 24.-IThe cotton market was very tame affair with trading of a pre- holiday character. and sales estimated for the day at only 125.000 bales.
 The close was steady at net decline of one toN four points in response to lower European cables and reports that Mem phis Savings bank had failed: but after the first few minutes prices rallied to about a shade over the closing figures of the pre- vious day on covering and cable to the exchange from Liverpool stating that the government estimated the Indian crop at 2,s00, 900 bales, against 4S0o.oo0 bales last year. Subsequent fluctuations were very narrow and irregular and during the afternoon business was practically at standstill. There was very little news as to spot conditions in the South and there appeared to be no change in the general situation
 The Indian crop estimate was in line with recent advices and had no important effect on sentiment. The markets at New Or leans. Liverpool and New York will be clos ed for Wednesday and Thursday.
 Receipts at the ports today 94. 240 bales, against 97,7aS last week and b6,225 last year. For the week (estimated) 350.000 bales. against 40o,215 last week and 3l1.50o last year.
 Today's receipts at New Orleans 32,s1s bales. against 24.9s2 last year. and at Hous- ton 2s,2S9 bales, against 14.s71 last year.
