The sales as reported, show considerable in
crease over the week previous, amounting 10 ,
larger aggregate than for any week since the be
ginning of the year The most noticeable feat
ure of this increase is the heavy transactions il
spring Calif,rn woods, viz: l,20i,40 pounds
| as against only 75 Os0 pounds last week.
Although the transactions have been large
| there has been no excitement in the market. and
the general tone has been quiet, with u steady

The wooden goods market also eviuces NOR,
activity and the opening Of new lines of fan
nels, dress goods, etc, has been quite success
full, offering considerable encouragement TO man
ufactureis in the prospects for the next few
months
The continued favorable report regardin,
the grain crops throughout the country is be
ginning 10 have its influence upon general bust
ness, and the outlook for the fall trade cannot
fail to produce cheerful view Of the future t
all interested in wool.
We cannot however, anticipate any immedi
ate Improvement in values as the large accumu
latiOns of wool now at the senboard and to Arriy,
the coming mon tn, will offer too large an assert
ment seeking sale on the market, TO reasona
bly, expect any advance during the next few
weeks.
