The Wool Market.

Eastern advlces represent the wool
market steady, with fair demand
from manufacturers. In fine washed
ileeces the feeling seems to be some
what stronger than it it was in the
early part Of the month, from the fact
that wet and chilly weather has delayed
shearing in Ohio, Michigan, etc. The
probability is that all the fine fleece
now in the markets will be wanted be-
fore the new clip is available. We do
not, However, notice any appreciation
in quotations. Walter Brown Il Co.,
Boston, say in their latest circular that
the demand there is confined to fine
and the better medium grades of wool,
low medium and coarse being in light
request Tor the present wants of manu-
facturers. 1t is now clearly indicated
that this season the mills will run on
goods requiring finer grades of wool,
and these will doubtless meet with
quick sale at fair prices. The market is
closely sod up on unwashed woods of the
grades now general use among man.

from Kansas ld other western points
mention the tighter condition OF the
woods this year, and their averaging
some pounds less to the fleece than
they did last season. This falling of in
the weight, in a great measure, is
probably due to the high price OF grain
during the past winter, causing the
growers to feed less corn to their sheep
than usual. Corn feeding in winter
makes wool, but at the same time it
makes yolk as well, and adds to the
shrinkage Of the wool when cleaused
for working at the mill. Manufactu-
rers buy all woods en- an estimate Of
the cost clean, and in this respect are
already to give due credit to lots of

officials held conference to-day with
Postmaster-Gen Howe on the subject
of fast mail, The general drift o! the
talk was in the direction Of train be-
tween New York and Chicago in %
hours, Chicago and Omaha, II hours,
and other points in proportion, making
the saving in time in hours between
New York, and points named as fol.
lowe; Chicago, eight hours; Omaha,
twenty-one hours; Cheyenne, % hours;
Denver, 80; Salt Lake, %; San Fran
cisco, %. The train between New
York and Chicago is to be exclusively a
mail train; those further west to carry
passeng ers. 1t is discovered that the
three lines between Chicago and Oma-
ha might operate against fast tram in
that direction, rs the line chosen to
this advantage would get majority Of
the business. Another conference will
be held tomorrow or Monday.

There is probably no raw material in

In any given section or state all the

THE GREAT OIL WE'LL.

TTUsvILLE, Pa, May 26.-The won
derful new oil well at Gariield--as the
embryo town is called--is the greatest
sensation of the last decade. Five DAYS
ago the well was thrown open and the
rush OF oil that followed shook ali out.
doors, and the great exchanges also, to
the very center. Starting of at 500
barrels day, it has never ceased,
making its three flows of about twelve
barrels each every hour. The scenes
that followed can hardly be imagined
by one who has never witnessed the
rise and fall of an oil town, and even
the Oldest producers are surprised al
most beyond expression. Oil dropped
six cents and millions of barrels were
thrown on the exchanges next day.
MEN GREW WILD
and bought and sold as they have
never dealt before. But at the we'll the
greatest transformation has occurred.
Four days ago there was single house,
farmers residence, and few hun
dred acres of cleared land near the
well; now there are three large hotels,
scores of business places and houses,
hundreds of excited men thronging
through the muddy roads, derrlcks

merchants, drillers, spectators, adven-
turers, and prostitutes, everywhere.
And heard above all is the rush and
roar of "646"--the name of the well--a
mystery no longer; and over all hang
the black clouds of gas from this one
of the greatest wells ever struck. and
