Eggs are active and in demand at new
prices.
Butter has declined to l0@15c for ordI-
nary, and 25c for creamery. The market
Is largely overstocked. J
While prices on poultry remain un-
changed, stocks are heavy, and with add
honal offerings prices will decline. There
is but little sale for turkeys, even the best.
A STEADY WOOL MARKET.
The wool markets are somewhat quleter
than for week or two past, but retain
in full the strength which has been devel- |
oped since midsummer. Not a little of |
the staple Is held above present values,
while there is no pressure to sell on the
part Of dealers. Holders are, without |
exception, confident that the present quo
tahons will be sustained, and many
look for further advance. Manu-
facturers, however, are not an
ticipating future wants to any
noteworthy extent. Their practice Ia TO |
bny often and in small lots 60 cover their |
contracts. Most of the mills are fully
supplied with material for the light |
weight goods on which they are at work,
but comparatively few have stocked up,
except in part, for the heavyweight
season. This win come on some time in
November. No small portion of the &C
tivity and excitement which characterized
the greater part OF September was the re-
suit of speculative operations by dealers.
Nevertheless the business naturally
has firm tone, in view of the fact
that domestic woods have not advanced as
rapidly or as for foreign. This fact is one
that the manufacturers cannot escape
from. Next seasons production of wool
ems viii unquestlonably have to command
higher prices than last year, unless the
raw material weakens greatly all over the
world, and of this there is no prospect.
The demand for fine wool is steady and
strong. Combing and delaine show
special activity. A fair amount OF bust
ness in Texas, California and territory
supplies is in progress, and there is q lib
eral movement OF carpet stock.
The London sales closed with con-
siderable quantity of low and undesirable
WOO ofteredS and prices were weaker
than at the outset. The depression did
not extend to choice stock, which con-
tinued firm. Cross-breds sold at the
close even higher than the week before.
On the whole, however, the market was
shade easier Advices from Australia
are to the effect that the sales at Mel
bourne have opened with great ANNA
ton, and with prices some 20 per cent.
above last seasons.
In the Boston market trade has been
Quieter than last week, but prices are
steady. No. combing Is worth more
than week ago. Manufacturers are
looking around good deal, but are not
disposed to stock up, save In anticipation
OF nearby wants. Holders are generally
