BALTIMORE, Feb. 20.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter will tomorrow
say of the wool trade: At the close of the
fair volume of trade, a general demand
with steady prices. The sale for the past
the corresponding week of last year, while
the amount of wool moved since JAN /,
1893, exceeds that for the similar period
last year by more than 100000 pounds.
There is no doubt of a larger call for
stock, especially for fine Australian. The
demand for medium domestic feeces is
more inquiry for fine feeces, particularly
for fine unwashed. good inquiry exists
for fine and coarse pulled woods. OF course,
business is being done on close margins,
but about everybody deems it impossible
that wool values shall go any lower. Man
ufacturers are well employed. and if deal
ordinary wants it must be remembered that
the extent of this market is SO vast that
below 100000 pounds. The sales of the
week amount to 2,260500 lbs domestic and
$4,000 lbs foreign, making total of $780,
600 Tbs, against a total of 3.144,600 lbs for
the rtviouS week and a total of 19l8, OOO
lbs for the corresponding week last year.
The sales since JAN. /, 1895, amount to
% So6,550 lbs, against 16,734,600 lbs a year
ago.
