BosToS, April 25.-The Adpeftiser in its
weekly review of the wool market says:
The market has been fairly active for de-
nestle wools, and the total sales, which
are 80 large, are due 70 extensive transac-
sions in foreign carpet woods, mostly Cor.
doya. Some oftlie wool has been sold for
some little time, but has not been report
ed until now. The war news had some.
thing to do with the extensive transac-
Itions, but prices were generally low and
thought by many great bargain, as in
the event OF q war between England and
Russia, wool from the latter country will
be obtained with great difficulty and must
rise higher. The bulk Of tho wool sold is
TO Eastern manufacturers. All the Cor
.doya wool has now been cleared up onthe
spot. While carpet woods may possibly
find q way out Of Russia, 1t must be more
costly, with war premiums and additional
transportation expenses. The eprices made
upon the wool are private, but it Is com.
mon talk that low figures tempted the
