Wool Market Conditions.

The movement in wool is of a ioboing
character in all markets. Manufacturers
are apparently well supplied, and those
who are IN need Of wool find considerable
difficulty in securing what they want. De-
sirable woods. except in few grades, are
not to be had Prices are very firm and
steady. New California woods will begin
to come forward by May l, and then the
market will be more active. Last year s
stocks OF California wool are about cleaned
mn. Pulled woods are in large supply and
selling slowly. a light trade is reported
in Australian. The next London sales will
open April ). Advices from London oroY:
ers to American dealers are that prices will
be very firm, il not higher than the last
sales. Offerings will not De heavy. OWING
to light stocks here American buyers will
probably take woods freely. Competition
will undoubtedly be very strong. There is
less doing in carpet woods, but prices hold
very firm, owing TO the light supplies.

OF Barbour All Right.
To ths Editor Of the Register:
PH1IIPPI, w. VA, April 1, es95.-My
attention has been called to commu-
pication from this place, under date OF
March 31st, which does our town and
county a great injustice There has not
been a recent assignment made In this
county by any business man. There is
no boom town in the county by the
name Of Wilmoth, or any other name
G.. W. Gall, Jr., has resigned as cash
Ter OF the Tygart's Valley Bank, and
Inc hank is in good condition. Mr.. Gall,
IL is claimed, Is temporarily financially
embarrassed, but it is conceded that no
man will lose a dollar by him.
w. p. Scott has met all the demands
against him and is still doing business
at the old stand.
3. ID. Gall is not doing business al
Belllngton, but is a practising physician
OF this place.
G.. w. Gall, ST.. farmer, may have
10 pay some security money for his sons,
but has made no assignment, neither
will he have TO.
There is more fuss than feathers In
the reports being sent out from here,
and Il seems that men do not observe
the Golden Rule to any great extent in
such matters. Everything is quiet, and
no,man will lose a dollar by any fnan-
ciaN embarrassment Of citizens OF this
town.
