In the Wool trade there is no change since our re-
port of l9t week. The new clip Is at hand and
the market appears to be free from the usual excite
ment and comparatively few BUYERS turning their
at ention to the West the belief is quite prevalent
that supplies can be purchased in Eastern markets
ing large contracts at the West \ lot Of new Ohio
fleece has already been received, but no considerable
supplies can be looked IT until e,rly in July.
In New York, for domestic very fair demand Is
noticed, with prices hrmly maintained. The stock
has not heen increased, but remains light with the
assortment very poor. The amount of feeces at
present in stock Is lower than tor many years past
and the frequent large sales of pulled have greatly
reduced the supply of that descrip ion.
In Philadelphia the general outlook is pretty much
the previously reported. There is no materi-
though the Transactions have been on a somewhat
smaller SCALE owing. apparently, to the decreasing
stock of desirable grades of old and the yet scanty
receipts OF new. The manufacturers very bare
of supplies, and only purchasing from han to
mouth. The new clip is beginning to come forward.
Several lots of Jersey fleece sold at 40c and through
out the West the current rates are 38 q 45c.

NEW YORK, June 11.-Details of the disas-
tsr at the Henry Clay mine, state that af.er the
ke, other men got in and brought out four dead
bodies Shortly after. three more dead were
