peoples struggling for independence
and unity, should be associated with
an expedition against the small but
valiant champion of Balkan independ=

THE PRINT CLOTH MARKET.
[By telegraph TO The Tribune

Fall River, March 23.-The amount of
business put through In the New England
cloth markets last week was the smallest
In six months. 1t being stated by brokers
that the total sales for the week reached
only $1,000 pieces. With mills turning out
their fullest weekly production, this total
would be only about fourth of the out
put. Mills are 30 situated that they have
very few spots on hand, and this ~
healthy condition IN itself. for If agents
and treasurers had large supplies on
hand IL would work greatly to their dis
advantage in the payment Of dividends
TO shareholders I'm a number Of instances.
The embarrassments reported last week
have had some effect OH business, In spite
Of what may be stated to the contrary.
and some of the largest manufacturers
Of cotton cloths in New England have
looked upon these instances with some
little alarm, for such failures naturally
arouse fear In the minds of agents and
treasurers who do a considerable amount
OF business with New York factors. The
presence of Good Friday contributed TO
the weeks quiet, although brokers and
others report that conditions in the cloth
market for the last several weeks have
been apathetic and buyers have shown
little interest in trading Early In the
week fair demand for certain wide
styles showed itself. but this petered out
as the week proceeded While things are
generally quiet, manufacturers view the
situation with composurc, they feeling
that 1t is only Il question Of short time
before business will revive and trading
will be on an expansive basis. \
The cotton yarn markets ruled rather
quiet in common with the cloth markets.
and ii Is reported In New York, Chicago.
Providence. Boston and other places that
prices were reduced on some counts, this
being the result of reduced demand for
cotton yarns in general. There are some
spinners IN the South and North who are
well situated I'm respect To future business
and the current quiet i'm yarns concerns
them but little. The raw cotton market
was rather weak last week, and this ac-
counted I'm some degree for the limited
business which was put through In yarns
The week closed with the demand for all
styles moderate. with manufacturers
loath to grant concessions and buyers
assuming a waiting attitude.

week: 28-lnch, 6l-6i, &c; 2S-nch. G4-60 37sc
