The Wool Market.

Boston, MASS, January 23.-The Amer
lean Wool and Cotton Reporter will say
tomorrow Of the wool trade: Nearly
three and half million pounds of wool
have been sold this week. There is visi-
BILE Improvement IN breadth of demand.
An improved feeling IS quite mani
fest. Manufacturers are taking right
along moderate quantities of various
kinds of wool according to the
kind of fabric they are making. II is be-
lieved when one considers that January,
1895, importations of foreign cloths include
three months consignment delivered in one
month that the bulk of il, and the descrip-
ton of il thus far, is such as to confirm the
appreheusions which were excited last fall
concerning the effect of these goods being
brought into competition with our domes-
tic manufacturers.
Except for fine woods, which are not in
excessive supply, the demand for domestic
.fieeces continues in about the same degree
as in the last quarter of 1894. There mas
been recently more call for territorial
wool than hitherto since the middle of De-
cember. Pulled woods have had another
good week, the price OF some grades has
materially strengthened since last writing;
Australian has sold well. and there has
been increased inquiries for South Ameri-
can crossbreds.

IL OF the latter material, it would DE
as much OF protection as are many
theatre capes, though these same small
affairs are extremely elaborate. Chin
chilla in the softest and finest quality
IS much used because it is lighter than
other furS. 1t Is made up with mount
ing OF velvet aud often with Insertions
OF heavy lace. Such garments are
short, standing out on the shoulders
and reaching 10 about the elbow. For
short women, they reach only 10 the
elbow on the sides and are made longer
in = point back aud front This
is much more becoming 10 the fuH
figure. The SWEETEST black velvet coats
are lined with ivory satin, the tails OF
the coats fare prettily, permitting the
white 20 show, and the wearer's rival
inst back Of her rejOicss because she
the plackst is open and showing white
through, and then is green with envy

Glsce kid is the thing sgaln for
cloves, though IL never does and never
can make q hand look so well. 1t does
not cleanse as thoroughly as the un-
dressed kid, but on the other hand, the
dressed skin wears longer. Dull tans
ard mode shades are in special vogue,
AZ fsnev effects ir coloring have been
discarded by women Of correct taste.
