NV YORK AMBITIOUS
To Become the Headquarters Of the
Wool Business.
The Opening of the Wool Exchange
is Expected to Revolutionize the
Trade and Give Boston a BLACK
Eve as a Center of Buying and
Selling.

New York. December 1.-The Herald
to-day says:
The opening of the Wool Exchange
whose handsome new building at Beach
street and West Broadway is almost
completed. is expected to make New
York the wool market of the country,
and TO revolutionize the methods OF the
business both here and in the East.
It's asserted by those who are back
of this scheme that its effect will be to
city in a body. Already many Eastern
drive the wool trade of Boston to this
merchants and traders have taken Of
fees in the Wool Exchange building.
There has never before been
AN ESTABLISHED CENTER
for the marketing of wool in this coun-
try. Wool merchants and brokers in
this city. for example, were scattered
about from Canal to Pine street. There
was no concert among them, ana no
means of providing entertainment or
accommodations for the out OF town
trade.
Many merchants have long been con-
WINGED that New York, as the natural
port Of entry of the country, should De
provided with facilities for the sale OF
foreign wool. 1t was seen that II THIS
was done. merchants would no longer
be Obliged to go to London to bid on
their wool. as they do at present, but
could transact all their business IN New
York. The new Wool Exchange pro-
poses to provide these facilities. Aus
tralian wool will in the future De sofa 10
manufacturers direct.
ANOTHER IMPORTANT FEATURE
of this Capitalization Of the interests
will be that the manufacturers must De
attracted to the New York market more
frequently than to other markets, not
only because wool will be sold here at
auction, as It in London, but also be-
cause they are interested in pushing the
sale Of their goods through New York
commission houses. The frequency Of
these latter visits have always had
tendency to make of New York the nat
ural wool market of the country and
with Wool Exchange in active opera
ton to emphasize this fact, and located
in the centre Of the dry goods district
CT the city. the manufacturer will dis
cover little need Of pushing his inves-
LEGATIONS across the water. Importers
in New York will be thus inaugurating
a method of marketing wool shipped
direct from Australia and South Amer

tanning odorous or malodorouS substances,
are provided, and the contestants are re-
auired to determine what ach bottle con-

this sort of thing offers interesting oppor-
tunities.
A number of converts walked over the
shore ice, scrunched through the thin edge,
and waded out into the icy sea at Orr's

people bathe in 1t.
Ten thousand sheep in one herd were
driven across the plains from Bismarck To
Forest City, S. D.. last week, and 5000
head travelled ON in a bunch from that
