New York Commercial: Upon the receipt of a fair volume of reorders from the cut- tlng-up trade on men's wear, dress goods and cotton dress goods nnd domestics, the market from end to end la stranger than It has la-eii during the past fortnight. The Incipient signs of weakness on cotton yarn* have developed Into a steady downward movement on most iiumtH-rs. and up to the opening of the new month there were signs Of tM < Itipw L-, _ however, la now noted nnd merchants lie- may lie avoided. lu the retail markets the reports *t hand state that Heptemlier sales hnve been above the average In practically alt department*. Thin has been especiallyi itrue of the movement In wooteu and I worsted dress goods, cotton dress good* nnd domestics, hosiery nnd underwenrj Iv-mnde clothing for women, inlsec* and klren and In the sale of household white lu ■nil lltixktia - Willi Ik. rat,nil Im.l.. .. — ... jelpH. Buyers of clothing wools are now lucllm-d to operate more freely In the matter of cor- ‘ gyur the spring, and on the medium ear, .... asking price, on lower grade--.M hold off and are satisfied to take their goods from hand to mouth. The actual sales nut through Tuesday on print cloths formed a small aggregate, but selling agents and cotton gmsts brokers declare the print cloth situation Impregnable. They declare that by the time mills have W’orked off their existing orders price* oil spot food* will lie higher thnn they are today, and that no contracts will tie acceptml on a lower totals •ven If cotton should touch a 10-ceut level. Print Cloths Move Slowlv, From day to day the present market Is making low-grade record* In sales of print cloth*. The majority of buyers are Inclined to hold off on placliiff contracts for 38%-inch standards at the 7-cout price, which Is cur rent. or on 39-Inch 68x73 at prices from 1% for s|H>ts down to 7%c on contract. It re quires considerable pressure to get print doth manufacturer* to accept business on narrow goods on anything below 4%c for 40x66. The elonned-up condition of the market cn 2S-luch standards which have sold at 5%c Is the determining factor In making principal* and largo cutter* up take the odd construction narrow good* nt the strong prices which weavers sre demand ing. During the Morning Session the Market Showed Little Recuperative Power. New York Oct. 2.—Th« evidence of hardening to the money market were renewed this morning. Call money opened under hid, of 7 per cent anil nulckly-advant-ed to 8 1-2. Along with thl, time money wd* reported aa In creasingly difficult to borrow around the quotation, recently reported. It waa true that sterling exchange prompt ly responded to these sign, of stringen cy with a drop of t-,c In the pound. Price, opened off eharply, following a decline In American .harea abroad, and continued to aag slowly during the first hour and n half. Then the pressure lightened, nnd the endeavor to covet* abort contract, In a moderate way forced etocke up 1-2 point or ,o from the loweet. The market appeared to be suffering more from the pnrnly»l* of the buying power than from any Im portant liquidation. While stock, wer. brought under prnfc.idonAI attack,, short-selling seemed to be more largely Instrumental In the decline. Cluittng Idd, follow: Hallway Stock,. tV. Iioltlinior and filiio .. ..
