changed. The recent cecline in Eastera markets
cannot ct present affect the local situation the
range of prices at Eastern points is still too hgh to

| WooL-The position of the market has not ma
terially changed since last report Stocks are
| rapidly accommodating both here and at shipping
| points in the interior In fact, several commission
houses find difficulty in securing suitable storage
! commodation. The looked for improvement from
! consuming points does not come The past weeks
transactions in Boston show failing off in demand,
With downward tendency in values. This is not
! surprising when the large 'taking5" Of leading
manufacturers during the preceding week or two
| are considered. Holders must either give way or
buyers must be liberal before the present stag
nation is removed. Prices are nominal at quota
| tons annexed. Three Eastern buyers here,
but as yet Their operations have been confined to an
examination of the several offerings. Stock now
in local warehouses is estimated at between S000,
