A special cablegrem to the Drovers'

During the past week BUYERS Of wool
have been very active throughout Michi-
gan. and sharp competition has been going
ON. and to great extent speculative
prices have ruled. Last year some money
was made in wool speculatlons, and, il is
claimed 10y the large BUYERS prices I'M
warranted are being paid for the clip by
interior buyers in hopes of reaping large
prohts on like good fortune this year.
Many of the eastern firms have found il
impossible TO compete with
these speculative buyers, and. conse-
quently,the wool is all going into the hands
of the inferior buyer. Prices started at
from %2Gn2ic per lb, but the speculative
spirit soon carried the price up TO 2Gc and
then 10 2,c. II Is claimed by dealers who
follow the market closely and base their
prices on actual information that even bic
and DC per lb for wool this year is more
than the legitimate situation warrants
On Wednesday, the 10th, the annual great
auction sale Of wool took place in Lon
don. England, when 49, coo bales OF wool
OF $50 lbs weight each were be
disposed Of This sale virtually
sets the price of wool for the world and
even should last years prices be sustained
the present price paid is thought 20
he too high, while if a slight break should
take place i'm the price there the Michigan
market will be demoralized.
II is estimated that fully three-quarters
OF the clip has already been purchased
and on the present out look farmers who
sell at i5c and upwards will have made ex.
trcmely good bargains
The Michigan clip is only moderately
large and not quite reaching last years
figures.
Absolute stagnation does not exist any
where IN the ocean, not even at the great
est depths.

The June Report.

Returns from SSl correspondents, repre-

townships in the southern four tiers OF

ed with the vitality and growth ofaverage
years, wheat in the southern four tiers OF
counties is "a per cent. indicating yield
of Az bushels per acre; and in northern
counties the condition is % per cent. in
dicating yield of 13 As bushels per acre.
Damage by Hessian fly is reported in
Berrien, Branch, Calhoun, Cass, Genesee,

The number of bushels reported market
ed in the same months of 1884 and 1885 is

A Fearful Holocaust.

The town of Vancouver has been com
pletely oblterated 10y II raging fire. The
fire was started from the brush clearing
fires on the Canadian Pacific railway.
The first building to burst out in flames
was a stable near the Colonial house The
alarm was given, but 50 skeptica were the
people that they paid no attention for
some time. The wind by this time had in
creased the gale and famed the flames to
n mass of raging fire. Building after build
ing was laid waste, and soon every
road had become an avenue of fire. the
falling timbers and stumps on each side OF
the road glowing with fire and proving as
serious menace to the fugitives as the
burning houses Of the doomed city. Moth
ing was to be seen but lurid, rollingoan
of smoke hanging over the ashes Of the
city from which stragglers could be seen
occasionally fleeing. The steamer Duns-
muir was at the wharf TO receive people,
and with several other steamers conveyed
II large number over TO Moodyvillc.
The dropping of the flames was as sudden
as their rise, and by Il p. M some adven-
turous spirits had already made their way
along the roads of the destroyed city, and
before dark the work of searching for the
bodies of those overtaken 10y the fiery ele-
ment had begun. In n short time the in
cinerated remains of several persons had
been discovered. Nine bodies. some of
which were burned beyond recognition,
have been found. There is some I'M
certainty about the exact number already
found, as in some cases a handful of char
red bones were the only indication of a
human life being lost One of the search
ers said he thought the number could be
truthfully estimated at twelve. The gen
eral sentiment of the people appears to be
one of hOpefuLness and determination at
once to begin reconstruction of the city.
Some have already got building material
ON the ground
