Wool Market.

Boston, July l5.-The demand for
nearly all kinds of wool is steady, al
though some manufacturers are dis
posed to hold back and bear the mar
ket in anticipation of easier prices.
Large receipts tend to give the inn
preston to buyers that lower range
of prices may prevail, but stocks have
only begun to accumulate. As supplies
now arriving cost comparatively high
rates in the interior, receivers are
only willing to sell when fair profit
is realized. Combings and delaine
fieeces are sought after, all available
lots are readily taken at current rates,
Most of the large mills have o supply
for the present, but many of them
cannot keep out of the market for any
length of time. Foreign advices are
still quite favorable, and there is no
margin for shipments to this side.

Pacific Mail and the Panama Railroad.
NEW YORK, July 15.-The rally in
the stock market at its close to-day
was chiefly IN sympathy with the
rise in Pacific Mail to 44s, and in the
Panama road to l0s; which stocks ad-
vanced on rumor that the Pacific
Mail Company had leased the Panama
road. The facts in the case are as fol-
lows: The Directors of both compa-
nies have been talking over the sub
iect for months and committee APP
pointed by joint meeting of the Di-
rectors on Tuesday has the matter
in charge. The plan proposed is for
the Pacific Mail Company to make an
arrangement of some kind to operate
the Panama road, as neither company
can lease to each other, according to
their charters; besides this arrange
ment, it is proposed that the Pacific
Mail Company relay the Panama
road with steel rails, as the old iron
rails are worn out; pay interest on the
Panama Company's bonded debt; pro-
vide for sinking fund, and pay twelve
per cent. per annum for the Panama
stockholders in quarterly installments;
after this, give Panama Company half
of the net earnings. The plan will
probably be adopted.
