tied and fiat, with buyers showing no
inclination to name a price that they
will pay. The general talk is that it is
not safe to attempt to handle this clip
above the free wool basis for raw mater
ial. This sounds well, but no two per-
sons appear able to agree as to what the
free wool basis will be. Some claim
that the free wool point has already
been reached, while others figure on
several cents more decline. The fact of
the matter is that owing to the dull
position of goods, but very little wool is
wanted at any price, and until buyers
get to the point where they feel that
they need supplies, it is very unprofit-
able business attempting to induce them
to operate.
Territory woods have met with larger
sales, but it is yet mostly sample lots
that are being taken. Buyers are all at
sea as regards the price they are willing
to stock up at, and will only pick over
the market and try sample lots.
Dealers are putting out sample lots
wherever they can, and hoping for bids
that they can accept. Where a buyer
happens to strike low test, he is more
disposed to make bid that win be ac-
cepted, and in this way some moderate
lots have been cleaned out. No one can
say what the secured basis of wools is
at present, and two buyers have been
known to purchase from the same pile of
wool with their views fully to cents
apart as to what they were willing to

getting the wool at their own price, the
test secured by each party being SO much
different. Texas woods are, quiet with
California woods dull and nominal.
Australian woods are quiet, for with
domestic woods on such low basis man
ufacturers are doing little with the
foreign after the 11-cent duty is paid.
Domestic fieeces have fallen away from
Australians, and left the latter suspended
as it were, so that until the duty is re-
moved or domestic grades are advanced
the foreign supplies can do but little in
competition. The market here is well
stocked, but the bulk of the supplies are
held in bond, where it can either be
held until wanted or else be shipped
back to Europe for market. Some
holders are talking strongly of sending
their supplies back to London, and this
may be done to some extent, although it
will be wanted when the tariff has been
changed. Carpet woods are dull, but
values hold steady. The cholera in
different sections of Asia and Europe
where these woods are grown Is liable to
make great changes in this years i'm
portations. Prices abroad hold very
firm.

FIVE MONTHS COMMITTED.

The Governor Takes Cognizance Of the
Time Frank Brady Was in Jail.
Frank Brady was convicted in Butte on
Jan. 26, 1891. OF grand larceny, and pend
ing m otion for q new trial lay in the
county Jail until June 20 following. when,
tho motion for a new trial being Withdrawn,
he was sentenced TO three years in the rem
itentiary. With good behavior his entence
has besn reduced six months. which would
make hmm free man on Jan. 20, 1894. Re-
GENTLY Brady wrote personal letter to
Gov. Richards asking that the FIVE months
that he Law in Jail after being convicted
and before being sentenced be deducted
from his term. as the delay was occasioned
by his counsel holding out hopes of now
trial. Gov. Richards, before leaving for
the east. took favorable action on Brady's
application and the matter is now before
the board of pardons for ratification. The
governor. in his letter to the board. says:
''lt is clear to my mind that the i've
m onths' incarceration suffered after oon-
viction and before sentence should, as a
matter Of justioe. be deducted from his
term of i'm mpyisonmsnt in the penitentiarv."
With tho communication Brady will be re-
leased on the 9th of this month.
