t,re'tcd in the raw material A few mill. ar,
meeting with fair success in Obtaining orders
that Will Keep them busy for some time. Lu.
the great majority of manufacturers have to
contemplate the possibility Ola acCumula-
ton OF their goods with perhaps future sac
rlitcial distribution under the hammer as
shown by the recent large auctions in New
York, or stop their machinery until Il rcvivH.
~ business ensures better prospect Of sue
rr'r. ia reviewing tn" situation as presented
nnahly he so SnguinC rs 20 expect an i'm
provcmcnt in values within the near
future aud to meet the probable
course Of the market, we reduce
our quotations l,g2 cents from those of our
last issue. However, rs July Is the month
when the larger mills usually lay in ample
supplies ana prices are already comparatively
low, il /, not improbable that the next few
weeks Will record a large aggregate OF trans.
actions Ofall class OfwoOl. Western uuwashed
and Territory woods are arriving freely ana
soon II large and desirable assortment will be
offered for the consideration of buyers. Sales
nave been made 10 II moderate amount, but
the prOSpcctiEely low prices Ct washed ficpcrS
leads manufacturers TO make very low offers
for these UnWaShcd woods, and values are
likely To rule 9d1 cents lower than last
fall But little Wyoming and no Montana
wool has yet come upon the market. The
samples received show a condition better
than last year, which may, to II certain cX-
tent, offset the decline in clcHnsed value.
az. ,uuN i'l have ithvn thc most prominent
place IN the sales of new clip. Prices how
ever, have been in sympathy with the cOndi-
| ton Of trade, and the eases are few where any
| nrotlt is made by the shipper. For bright
Waco woods, especially Of twelve months
| growth there has been n good enquiry, and il
| is probable that the receipts will be promptly
| disposed of within the range of quotations.
| For other classes the demand has been
sluggish, with values somewhat weak. Wool

| railroad show rather more shrinkGgc than
usual from sand. and the prices Obtninnblc
| are Of Il wide range. At the suggestion Of
several correspondents from Texas, we make
| the following changes ana additions 10 our
classification OF these woods. II Is our wish
| 90 adopt form HAT will he most cumprchcn-
| size ~ ana easily understood by those int, r.
cStcd, hence We shall h, thankful for any
! communications on the subject. To the Waco
| district We add the following counties: Travis,
