shown by the fact that, although less number cattle

to hold on to them rather than to consent to sell
them at the prices butchers willing to pay At
the present time, when grass is plenty, and stock

lHE WOOL TRADE-Ne,o York, Ady2.-We have to
report quiet market during April especially up to the
2lst at which date large sale foreign and
domestic wools was announced The sale however has
been subject, and deservedy to much censure it was
decided failure A small quantity only was offered and
that mostly bid in balance was Withdrawn In fact
the sale has had bad effect this months business and
clearly proved that similar auctions will not do for
great market like this Liberal auction sales only will
give satisfaction to both sellers and buyers.
Since the date above mentioned there has been more
Golns out at decline from previous rates of about
10 per cent Domestic fleece will all be taken before
the new clip the stock of which being very light the
Pulled wool is in better supply vet there is little de-
nahd Tor 1t at even the reduced rates. California and
Texas woods have been selling freely at considerably
lower prices in consequence of the large stock in mar
ket and limited inquiry Buyers of wool in these States
VIII DO well to operate cautiously during new cp
The prospect Of a in Europe seems to have much
influence in the Wool market there the prices of fine
and medium wool have receded somewhat Should the
war actually occur it will be felt and have its bear
ing on our market for domestic Wool the clip which is
approaching and We have but little doubt that prices will
not rule as high the farmers have been expecting The
events oil this year will fluctuations and there
fore deserve attention.
Fine foreign Wool has been but little sought for during
cp and in good condition the prices from to 10 per
cent lower There is good supply compared to that of
last winter.
Low foreign Wool remains about the same as before so
lar as the stock is concerned but prices easier at least
per cent for desirable kinds and to 10 per cent
for neglected qualities
Trade being considered in healthy state and the i'm
poraton of wool not larger than necessary we may look
for a fair business during the next season.
