Owing to the continued absorbing In

amount Of the exchange against recent
purchases OF securities for foreign ac-
count has not as yet been disposed OF.
Some comment was made over the
withdrawal to-day of many banking
Institutions from the commercial paper

the prevailing financial uncertainty.
The offerings OF prime paper moderate.

London market closed frm jan
uary 30 on the basis OF the full
advance. American purchases at tho
sale were 1000 bales. largely fine merl-
no Australian. The next wool sale
commences March 3. Australian woods
on this side have sold better in sympa-
thy with London. but most sales here
have been below the parity OF cost In
that market. Domestic woods are
quoted firm on the strength or the for
eign market, but they sell slowly. Fine
washed Ohio fleeceE continue quoted ut

Ohio, with dcl1ines at 2lc No. CLOTH
Ing and combing washed Ohio fleeces
thrown together sell at 22c, with Michl-

slow. although quoted much lower in
comparison than fine flceces or Austria
liam. The secured basis for fine me-
dium and fino Is yet about S3dS5e, with
medium at s2c. Carpet woods are
