Woois-The local market IS less influ-
enced BY the situation at Eastern manufacturing
eenters Late Boston adviees state that fine heeces
were more sought after, and an offer for round
lots had been declined that would have been
accepted week or two ago. Holders were conf
dent OF more active market aud higher prices
at an early day. The drought in New England
had retarded business considerably, manuiac-
turers would be free buyers if they could start
up some Of the machinery idle During the
