A prominent reason
for the improvement in, the latter particular is the

As to crops some points are now assured.

food products which the South is this season everywhere
reaping ; should the year prove a successful one for cotton

Another event now almost cer¬

Reports of spring wheat are likewise favor¬

conditions added to the continuance, with but slight inter¬

any uneasiness

in the financial situation which need

for the year to come.
The stock market has been

generally strong this week,
but closes dull, though firm.
In addition to favorable
accounts of the growing crops and the action of the House,
on
the Bank Tax bill, other influences operating to
strengthen prices have been the speculative position of the
leaders as shown by the manner in which specialties have
been sustained, the declaration of the usual quarterly divi¬
dend of 2 per cent on Lake Shore, the order advancing
freight rates on and after July 1st, the weakening of the
labor movement, and the expectation that the strike will
extend no further among railroad employes.
The market
has not had any special adverse influence—though there
were one or two flurries in
money, unimportant in their
effect—and for the past few days until yesterday it was
dull, speculatorsappearing to prefer to wait until after the
Fourth of July holiday before operating to any extent.
Yesterday, however, there was at one time some improve¬
ment here based upon London dispatches of activity there
in American securities.
It was reported that a panic in
Alexandria had led to the sale in London of European
securities and the purchase of Americans. Prices of
American stocks in the London market have followed

closely this week, as will be seen by the fol¬
lowing, showing relative prices in London and New York
at the opening each day.
To-day London made an

A fact which has had a very favorable influence in finan¬

A carpenter who has

Banks are the merchants’ tools ; they can do nothing with¬

last week, has been decreasing while the work to be done
by it has increased many fold.

Money has shown a tendency to increased activity this
week, as is natural at this period when banks and other
corporations having dividends or interest falling due on
the 1st of

July, curtail their loans and call in some of those
outstanding. On Tuesday certain brokers in the stock
market took advantage of a temporary scarcity of funds
and bid the rate up to 10 per cent, this rate being made
possiole by the removal of the restrictions imposed until
May 30 (when the new act went into effect) by the Usury
law of this State.
Since Tuesday the supply while not
excessive has been sufficient to meet daily requirements,
though yesterday call loans at the Stock Exchange were
bid up to 8 per cent.
It is expected that after to-day
money will become abundant again, for the Treasury will
begin to disburse over 11£ millions for interest and about
12 millions for bonds, a call for which falls due on the

in brief, the influences that are responsible for the
present small earnings. An interesting fact, however, is
that with these roads, as with the Pennsylvania and other

companies, the tendency towards a higher ratio of expenses
to earnings is quite marked.
It was supposed that though,
on account of the
lower rate received, the ordinary
expenses this year would absorb a larger proportion of
earnings, this would, as compared with the previous year,
be offset by the smaller amount of extraordinary expenses
incurred which last year were very large because of the
heavy snow and ice and the generally severe winter
weather.

How extraordinary this is will appear when we

of the worst railroad war ever known) the percentage
was but 62f, while in 1880 it was only
55J, and in 1879
58-J. During the last twelve calendar years as high a
percentage as 67 has been reached only three times. On
the Michigan Central the percentage for the six months
this year is 77*8, against 70-16 in the six months of 1881 ;
but this is not so surprising, since the percentage is
always much higher on this road, and, moreover, fluctu¬

London, Saturday, June 17, 1882.
The money market has continued in a very easy condition,
and in consequence of the low point to which the rates of dis¬
count have fallen, the directors of the discount houses have
lowered their rates of interest for deposits to the extent of one-

half per cent.

The

money

market is almost always

easy

at this

year, as trade i3 kept greatly in check, owing to
the obvious want of definite information regarding the crops

period of the

and the

probable result of the harvest. Trade bills

scarce,

and any immediate increase in the supply is very im¬

are

decidedly

probable. The position of the Bank of England continues to
improve, the proportion of reserve to liabilities having risen
from 4314 to 44% per cent, which compares with 47 per cent
last year. The total supply of bullion is now £23,640,700,
against £26,522,419, while the total reserve is £13,591,760,
against £15,971,259 last year. The financial position of the
Bank may be regarded, therefore, as satisfactory, and a con¬
tinuance of the present easy condition of things almost certain.
The following are the present rates of discount.

net decrease in 1882 to date of 222.
receipts of the 14 principal railway companies of
England since January 1 now amount to £22,181,550, against
£21,346,912 last year, showing an increase of £834,638, or 3 90
per cent. On the three principal Scotch lines, since February 1,
they have been £2,322,796, against £2,249,743, being an increase
of £7J,053, or 3*24 per cent.
At the public sales of Colonial wool, which are still in prog¬
ress, competition is well sustained, the demand being fairly
distributed between the foreign and home sections of the trade.
The better grades of combing merino produce command, as dis¬
tinguished from the middle and lower classes, an increasingly
deciled preference. These descriptions, together witji the
finer grades of crossbred (both of which have gained an
advance on the opening rates of the series of about %d. to Id.
per lb., and in some cases even more), alone show a really
appreciable improvement upon the prices of the FebruaryMarch auctions, while the coarser types of crossbred staple are
somewhat below the level of that period. In the market for
home grown wools and in the worsted trade, of which the Brad¬
ford district is the chief centre, but little change for the better
can be reported.
The new clip, which is now beginning to be
offered, is said to be light in quantity, and rather better than
an average in point of quality.
The industrial condition of
Western Europe has shown recently no important indication of
variation ; in all directions, as for some time past, the produc¬
tive power has more than equaled the requirements of con¬
sumption, but this disproportion in the relations of supply and
demand would, no doubt, be to some extent redressed by the
realization of fortunate harvests. The present sales will close

quarters in the corresponding period of last season and 4,953,000
quarters in 1880-81.
Without reckoning the supplies of
produce furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the
season,it is estimated that the following quantities of wheat
and flour have been placed on the British markets since harvest.

satisfactory trade reports continue to pro¬
duce much quietness in the trade for wheat, as well as for other
cereals, and sales have become difficult, except by making some
concession as regards price. The decline has not, however,
been great, as supplies are not abundant, and are not likely to
be increased until the new crops are available for transmission
to market. Millers continue to buy very sparingly.
The
quantity of produce now afloat to the United Kingdom is esti¬
mated as follows : Wheat, 2,050,000 quarters; flour, equal to
220,000 quarters ; Indian corn, 373,000 quarters.
During the week ended June 10 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 23,609 quarters, against 21,831 quarters last year
and 28,458 quarters in 1880; while it is computed that they
were in the whole kingdom 94,440 quarters, against
87,330
quarters and 113,850 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the

during the past week has been favorable for
growing crops. Some rain has fallen, but it is now consider¬
ed that the fall has been sufficiently copious for all require¬
ments. With but few exceptions, the crops are very promising.
The hay harvest has been commenced, and it is expected that
the yield will be one of the heaveist known for many years.
The fruit crop does not promise to be an abundant one, and
there are complaints from the hop plantations. The wheat
plant is now commencing to bloom, and should the weather be
bright and summer-like, harvesting is expected to be commenced
imabout six weeks time.
The accounts from most parts of the
Continent are also encouraging, so that, taken as a whole,

P.

United States Bonds.—There has been

high state of excellence.
There is quite a point made in some
quarters of the circum¬
stance that many railroads are
showing in June a decrease in
their gross earnings, compared with the
corresponding month
of last year: but there is really
very little in this, from the
fact that in June, 1881, the
earnings were enormous, and the
traffic which had been kept back by the
severity of the weather
in the spring months then added
largely
to the receipts. It
is very plain that the smaller
supply of grain for export has
reduced railroad earnings, but
leaving out of view that single
-item of freight, and the general business, west-bound
freight,
and passenger traffic, have been
large beyond expectations. The
statements of the Lake Shore &
Michigan Southern and the
Michigan Central companies, for the six months, are probably
not worse than had been
anticipated; but the policy of declaring
a quarterly dividend on Lake Shore
when it had not been
earned, meets with various comments on the
Street, and it is
.certainly against what has heretofore been considered the
Vanderbilt polic.y in railroad management. The
Pennsylvania
Railroad makes a good report for May, and
this, coming at the
same time with the advance in
freights and the expiration of
the old unprofitable contracts which ran till
July 1, gives a
general impression of a better state of affairs on the tr ink-line
roads, and a much better prospect for earning dividends in the

The Money Market and Financial Sitnation.—The
export
of gold from New York this week has been about
$1,400,000,

and for Saturday’s steamers
nothing more is reported. At
the Stock Exchange business has not shown
great activity,
but the undertone is, upon the whole,
strong. The great
export crop among the cereals is wheat, and this is now con¬
sidered to be secure in most of the winter wheat
region, so
that the first of the grain crops to ripen, as well as the
hay
crop, which is quite as important, have reache .1 maturity in

bond measure in Washington was at first
regarded here as
rather a joke than otherwise, but there seem to be members
of the House who regard it seriously.
The main results to be

accomplished would seem to be one more unsettling of the
banks, and one more chance for bankers and brokers to make
their commissions by changing off one issue for another.
The closing prices at the N. Y. Board have been as follows:

The coal road stocks are supported
by the strength oi the
anthracite coal trade and the slight advance in
prices on account
of the moderate stocks of coal on hand.
It is also reported
that a strike among the miners has been averted
by a
advance in wages, which will be made from the first voluntary
of

July.
In tlie money market there has been a little
flurry in call
loans once or twice, in consequence of the
shifting of money
incident to first of July payments. The
working of the new

State and Railroad Bonds.—In State bonds, Louisiana con¬
sols have sold more freely on orders to purchase for New
Orleans account,

probably on the expectation that a new com¬
promise law will be passed. The Tennessee Committee report
having received over $2,000,000 bonds to be exchanged for
the new bonds lately authorized.
Railroad bonds have been rather stronger on a good invest¬
ment demand.

and

Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
variable, and closed to-day dull and rather
weak than otherwise.
But this was merely the phase of the
moment, and, taken altogether, the otitlook for a fair market
after the Fourth of July seems to be very good.
It is gener¬
ally believed that the strikes of the railroad hands will he set¬
tled and further strikes will be averted; but if there should be
serious troubles, it is hardly necessary to say that railroad
Railroad

has been somewhat

business might suffer therefrom.
This afternoon Reading was one of the weakest stocks, as
there has been no announcement that the payments which

were to take place to-morrow under Mr. Gowen’s
plan of ad¬
justment will be made. The absence of any definite informa¬
tion, too, in regard to the subscriptions to the 5 per cent bonds
is quite prejudicial to public confidence in the success of the
loan.
There have been some rumors of a special meet¬
ing to be called to vote a scrip dividend on the CMcagp
&
Northwestern
stocks, but we do not know that
they have any foundation in fact. Possibly the circum¬
stance
that
the road made
such Jlarge
earnings in
1881-2, with prospects for larger in 1882-3, together with the
fact that this company is exceptional among the leading corpo¬
rations of the Northwest in having made no sort of stock dis¬
tribution to its stockholders, have suggested the above rumor.
The Mutual Union Telegraph Company stock will soon
appear
on the Exchange list, and under the control of Mr. Gould, this
stock, instead of going out of sight, will b? a new candidate for
dividends, perhaps by a future lease to Western Union on a
guarantee of 5 or 6 per cent per annum. The country may yet
have to bear a great deal more telegraph tax. Erie stock hangs
along at or near the same figures, closing to-day about 36; but
with its new combinations, Erie ought to show some activity
before another six months has passed.

Boston & Maine—Eastern.—The Transcript publishes the
terms of the propositions regarding a lease made between the
Eastern and Boston & Maine Railroads : The Boston & Maine
proposed to the Eastern that the earnings of both companies be
treated as a whole ; that out of the net earnings, the interest
upon the bonded debt of both roads be first paid ; then 8 per
cent upon the stock of the Boston & Maine Railroad Company,
and then any surplus divided in equal per cent upon both the
Eastern and Boston & Maine stocks.
This proposition was
satisfactory to the bondholders of the Eastern Railroad Com¬
pany, but has been rejected by reason of the opposition of the
Eastern Railroad Company stockholders. The Eastern Rail¬
road Company offers to lease to the Boston & Maine Railroad
Company upon like terms, save that after Boston & Maine Rail¬
road Company stock has paid 8 per cent dividends, Eastern
Railroad Company shall be entitled to 6 per cent dividends be¬

elected by a stock vote of 876 to 346 and a bond vote of 1,421 to

published

on

last Sunday, stated

that Russell Sage had obtained a judgment against the Memphis &
Little Rock Rail way Company for $1,259,213. E. K. Sibley, General
Manager of the road, was appointed receiver. The judgment was

obtained in the Chancery Court of Pulaski County.

Large bondholders

of the company said yesterday that the judgment obtained
by Mr. Sage
was for only $126,000.
Mr. Sage, when spoken to, said that he sup¬
posed the smaller was the correct sum. He added that he had nothing
to say about the matter ; it was on record in Little
Rock; all he wanted
was to get his monej".
“A prominent bondholder of the company
said: ‘The stock of the

Memphis & Little Rock is controlled by the Missouri Pacific Railway
Company and its friends. The Gould party has been endeavoring for

some time to “ freeze out” the bondholders and
get them to reduce
the rate of interest on their bonds. The general mortgage bonds of the
company have been drawing 4 per cent. After July 1 next they will
draw 8 per cent. The bonds run until 1907, so that bondholders are
not to be easily induced to cut down their interest. When the old stock¬
holders sold out to the Gould party, about two
years ago, Henry G.
Marquand, President of the company, gave his bond to satisfy a claim
of the State of Arkansas against the road for about $240,000,
advanced
to it in 1861, should the claim be pressed to a successful issue. The
State, on March 4 la^t, obtained a judgmentfor that amount. The road
was advertised on March 6 to be sold to
satisfy this claim on March 30.
The bondholders united to pay the State the $240,000, and
they obtained
an assignment of the State’s judgment.
They then began proceedings
in-the United States Circuit Court for the appointment of a receiver.
Meantime, on January 1 last, the company defaulted on its interest.
We claim that the earnings of the road were sufficient to meet the inter¬
est. That is shown by its own statements.
Before the sixty days
expired during which the default had t# continue to justify foreclosure

Wi:

proceedings, the company paid its interest, on February 28. After the
January default the company, through Mr. Marquand, ottered a new 5
per cent bond in place of the existing general mortgage. The offer was
declined by the bondholders. The next step taken
by the company was
to confess judgment on a note for $126,000 held by Mr. Sage, and the
receiver was appointed, although
proceedings in the United States
Court arc still pending. We do not know what the note wa-.i
given for.
But the
judgment was confessed only four days after the note was

with others similarly situated, this line was

adversely affected by the extremely low prices caused by the

warfare of the trunk lines during a*part of the
half-year, and
the marked Jailing off in the volume of business which
occurred
almost simultaneously with the settlement of the issues
and
the restoration of substantially fair rates.
“
Besides the general deficiency in the
crops of last year, to
which this last effect was due, this line was

affected, independ¬
ently and especially, by a deficiency in the crops of Michigan,
relatively greater than that in the other States, and the crops
of Michigan are ordinarily carried to a
very great extent upon
this line. 2
“
The facilities of the line and its

equipment have been mater¬
ially increased and improved, and is all in complete condition.
With veiy encouraging indications for the
general crops of this
year those for that of Michigan are particularly so, and it is
believed that the disputes which so affected the result of
the
present half-year have been adjusted upon a basis
practically
permanent.

act of Assembly, the bondholders surrender $240 of accrued
interest on each bond, and receive a new bond for the face
value of the old one, running 40 years at 6 per cent, with an

EPITOME,

Friday Night, June 30, 1882.

General trade continues to be greatly retarded
by the strikes
freight handlers at the railroad stations. The delay in

of the

forwarding and delivering merchandise has worked great
injury to perishable products. The weather continues almost
uniformly favorable to the growing crops, and they are reported
as making
rapid progress ; but violent wind and rain storms
have continued in various
parts of the Ohio

valley and in the
Northwest, doing much local injury and causing some loss of
life. Vegetation in northern latitudes has suffered some
from
Rio Grande & Pecos.—At Austin, Texas, June 25, this com¬

A good speculation has been
reported in pork and lard, and

new directors have taken advantage of this
provision and have

projected branches from Bolivar, on the main line, to Kansas
City, passing through Clinton; a continuation of the branch
from Clinton passes through Tuscumbia, where it is joined
by
another branch from Bolivar, and goes thence to St. Louis.

From Bolivar there is also

a

branch to extend

Carthage, thus giving

through Lamar to

a more direct line to the southwest por¬
tion of the State than even that of ’Frisco.
The ’Frisco line

through Lebanon and Springfield—at the first making a
another
projected from Lebanon
to a point opposite Chester, III., where it can make connections
with the great trunk lines south from Chicago. The arrange¬
ment of the system is such as to give the
company a road from
Kansas City to St. Louis, and from either of those points to the
southwestern part of the State going via Bolivar. Upwards of
ten years ago between $300,000 and $400,000 was expended
upon
the road building from Lebanon west, and also a short
strip of
seventeen miles from Nevada City towards Fort Scott. The road
being in the hands of a receiver after the panic, the Missouri
Kansas & Texas squatted upon this seventeen miles of road¬
bed, and has been using it ever since. On June 19 the stock¬
holders met in Nevada City, and placed the first mortgage
passes

with the main road, and at the second with
function
branch from Bolivar. A branch is also

upon the charter.
This was for the sum of $12,000,000, which
it is computed will be sufficient to build the six hundred miles of
road which is to compose the system. The bonds are to be
issued only as the road is built and according to the
mileage,
the amount being arbitrary.” * * * “Work will be pushed
on the main line
immediately, both from the east and west end.

This completed, the branches which promise the most will be

constructed. Ties and rails are being received at Lebanon now,
and it is expected that the main line will be completed during
the present year.
The stockholders, while at Nevada City,
elected the following directors and officers : J. N. B. Dodson
and W. W. Prewitt of Nevada City, B. F. Helper of Fort Scott,

speculation in cotton for future delivery has been more
during the past week, and there has been
an
important advance in prices for this crop, with some,
improvement in the next. The speculation for the rise has
gained strength from the probable interruption of supplies
from or through Egypt, the reduced stocks of American cotton,
with probable large drafts and small accessions to them for
many weeks to come, and the growth of a considerable “ short
interest” since the crop accounts have begun to improve. All
these have given the advantage to the operators for a rise,
which they employed with vigor throughout Monday and
Wednesday, and on Thursday morning, when the highest
prices of the week were made. The close on Thursday was
irregular ; the present crop showing an advance and the next
a decline.
There was considerable discussion of the proba¬
bilities of a “corner” on August contracts.
Notices for July
delivery were issued pretty freely early in the week, but by
Thursday they were nearly all stopped. To-day the market

were disposed to close accounts, in view of the adjournment of
the Cotton Exchange from to-morrow night to Thursday
morning next. Cotton on the spot has advanced materially,
with the offerings very small at any approximate price. There
was an advance of %c. on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
The limited business has been mainly for export. To-day the
market was quiet and unchanged, middling uplands closing at

State.—The Jacksonville Union has received
past week the following advices in relation to the con¬
dition of the cotton crops in Florida :

receipts June 30

Leon County— Acreage about the same, perhaps a little les
than last year ; condition of crop very good.
“E. A. C.” writes us from Tallahassee : “Crops of all kinds
in this section are earlier and better than last year.
Leon

County is ‘0. K.’ ”
“J. 'H. P.” writes from Miccosuski, giving substantially the
same report as above, and adds : “The recent rains were
very
improving to the corn, cane, potato and cotton crops.”
Wakulla County -Acreage 25 per cent less ; condition good.
W. T. Duval writes from Crawfordville : “I have been a resi¬
dent of this county for more than forty years. I have never
seen our present crop surpassed.
There has been a great
falling off in the acreage of cotton and a corresponding increase
in corn and ot her food crops.
Mr. W. W. Walker writes from Crawfordville : “The crops of
this county are generally good—above an average. Should
nothing intervene between this and harvesting time to damage
the crop, this county will pioduce much more corn than it will
require for holme use.
Cotton is also looking well—in fact, all
the crops.

First Sea Island Bloom.—From the Charleston News and

take the following:
“Mr. T. J. Hamlin, of Christ Church, has sent to Mr. Eiias
Venning, his factor in this city, a sea island cotton bloom picked
from the centre of

Jcte Butts, Bagging, Etc.—Business is not active

and the

quiet look. Manufacturers are still busy filling old
orders, but few new ones are being received. The sales making
are to fill present requirements, and
only a moderate amount
of stock has been moved. - Prices show no
change, and the feel¬
ing is easy, with holders quoting 8c. for 1% lbs., 8/f>e. for 1%
lbs., 9;2C. for 2 lbs. and lO^c. for standard grad- s. Butts
are
moving only in small parcels as wanted, and we do
not hear of any inquiry for
large lots. There have been sales
of several hundred bales, in
parcels, at full rates, and at the
close quotations are 2>i@2^ac. for paper grades, while
bagging
qualities are held at 2 11-1(5@2%c., as to quantity.

The market has advanced somewhat,
frequent, as the clique having
the corner in charge have been endeavoring to shake out the
holdings of the smaller speculators, who they think are too
eager to unload when prices begin to rise, and thus embarrass
the larger operators. Very little export trade has been done,
and the speculation has been less active latterly. To-day
prices advanced ^c.; No. 2 mixed sold moderately at 81 %c.

irregular.

Some of the spring wheat flour has turned sour,
and a strike at the railroad freight depots has prevented hold¬
ers from disposing of even the sound grades.
It is said that
much of that ground daring March and April has spoiled.
Wheat early in the week was very active and excited at an
advance of 6 cents per bushel in June options in two days,
owing to a scare among the shorts, both here and in Chicago,
largely due, originally, to an important reduction in the stock
at the latter market and the intimation that the

It has been noticeable that the

clique have not shown a disposition to extend their vigorous
methods to exporters.
Sales at times being reported for
foreign account at eight or ten cents under the prices exacted
from speculators ; millers also seem to have been exempted in
certain cases at least. The later options have shown only a
moderate advance. The speculative transactions for the week
have reached a fair aggregate, but otherwise the trade has
been on quite a moderate scale.
To-day, after the settlement
of the June short contracts, the market fell 14^c. for cash
wheat and 12/£c. for June, while the later options were slightly
lower as well; speculation was fairly active, but export trade
was very dull.
The highest price latterly paid for No. 2 red on
on the spot in elevator has been $1
50%, while sales were made
to-day at $135. The crop prospects are in the main very

THE

DRY

GOODS

TRADE.

Friday, P. M., June 30, 1S82.

past week has witnessed a fairly satisfactory movement
in a few of the most staple cotton and woolen goods, prints,
&c., in spite of the difficulty in securing transportation to the
West and Southwest, because of the continued strike of the
freight handlers. Many of the shipments were made direct
from the mills, and by circuitous routes; but freights were
rather more freely taken toward the close of the week by the
regular companies, and there are indications that increased'
transportation facilities will be offered in the near future. The
season has so far advanced that the demand for summer goods
was comparatively light at first bands; but a fair business was
done by jobbers, the late activity of the retail trade having
caused a more frequent call for small reassortments of ging¬
hams, light prints, lawns, dress fabrics, &c.
Domestic Cotton Goods.—The exports of cotton goods for
the week we're 3,014 packages, including 1,639 to China, 347 to

U. S. of Colombia, 162 to Hamburg, 118
to Brazil, 79 to Venezuela, &c.
There was a fair business in
plain and colored cottons, with most relative activity in the
best corporation makes. Fine brown sheetings continued in
good request, and stocks have been greatly reduced within the
past fortnight. Medium bleached goods were fairly active, and
there was a slight improvement in the lower grades. Wide
sheetings were in improved request at a small concession from
former prices, and cotton flannels continued to move in liberal
quantities. Colored cottons were in moderate demand and
steady, and grain bags were decidedly more active in both first
and second hands. Print cloths w-re in fair demand, and
closed firm with an upward tendency, at 3 13-16c. cash bid to
3 13-16c. plus
per cent and 3%c. asked for 61x64s, and
3 7-16c. bid to 3/£c. asked for 56x60s.
Dark prints were fairly
active, and there was a steady business in ginghams and wash
fabrics, although selections were chiefly confined to small par¬
cels of leading makes.
Domestic Woolen Goods.—There was a continuation of the
improved demand lately noticed for wool flannels,and while plain
and twilled scarlets and other colored flannels were distributed
with a good deal of freedom, there was also a satisfactory busi¬
ness in dress flannels and sackings, some makes of which are
largely sold to arrive. Colored blankets were in fair request,
and there was more inquiry for white blankets, resulting in
considerable transactions.
For clothing woolens the demand
was comparatively light, and mostly confined to small dupli¬
cate parcels of medium and fine cassimeres, suitings, worsteds
and overcoatings, the best makes of which are well sold up
and steady in price. Cloakings have received a fair share of
attention, and there was a better demand for repellents. Ken¬
tucky jeans ruled quiet, but doevSkins were in steady request,
and there was a limited business in satinets; worsted dress
goods were slow of sale, and shawls were lightly dealt in.
Foreign Dry Goods have remained in the quiet condition
noticed of late, and no material increase in the demaud is
looked for until importers are prepared to open new fabrics
adapted to the fall trade. Jobbers have d me a fair business
for the time of year, owing to the constant demand for small
reassortments by local and interior retailers. Prices are un¬
changed, and generally steady ou the most staple fabrics.
