WOOL.

The New York Wool Record gives
the following review Of the situation
and prospects for wool: =
Wool is still good thing. twill
have it's fluctuations, like the weather
and a woman's temper, but the aver
age market price will be we'll mainl
tanned for some time to come. There
will probably occur occasional shadings
down and ub; even temporary de-
cline nay be recorded in certain grades
but wool will continue to he a good
investment,
It is undoubtedly true that wool
speculation has ceased for time, The
period of excitement is over. The
movement Of the market will be some
what slower, but the tone will be no
less firm. Few large sales have been
reported the past week. The note
worthy feature was the purchase of
nearly 100000 pounds Of Territories
by Charles Fletcher of Providence.
The short supply of domestic wool
may encourage the approach to the
importing point. In fact, it seems
that we have already reached that
interesting stage, as there is some imo
porting now in progress. A slight
advance in market will increase i'm
portations.
The Australian clip is also short,
and this may have retarding effect.
The offerings for the next London
sales. opening Nov. %, are said to
afford little promise in the way of
onIk or variety, The Liverpool sales,
open Nov Is, offered only about 81
600 baies.
From the conservative point
there Is no occasion for anxiety on the
the part of either sellers or buyers.
1t is safe to sell, and no purchaser
would run any risk as the market now
stands.

Mr.. TT. T Richards of Sonora, who
is at Iturbide, is completing his ar
raneements for the construction of a
large irrigating reservoir near Her
mosillo. 1t is intended to at least to
water 100000 acres of land. The
project is being carried out on large
scale and will be another one of those
substantial enterprises which Ameri-
oan capital is contributing to Mexico.
Speaking of the Yaqui gold6elds, Mr..
Richards says the gold is there, but in
most instances it will require large
capital to develop it, However he
considers it a profitable fold for the
prospector, in fact, gold placers are
found along the entire west coast. --

THE YAQUI GOLD FIELDS.

A Nogales dispatch of recent date
says: wv. P. Harlow, Of the well
known firm of Harlow q Cowen, OF
this city. Capt. T. O. Cox, noted
mining expert from California, W. b.
Pomeroy Of Phoenix and r. J. Hart
man, prominent attorney OF Presc OFT
have lust returned from visit to the
Bonancita placer mining region In the
country ceded by the Yaqui Indians
in their recent TIRE atty with the Mexi-
can government. These gentlemen
assert that none Of the accounts of
that region which have heretofore gone
out have half described what is to be
found in the Bonancita valley. The
ground is pay dirt from the grass roots
to the bed rock and varies in depth
from 1S inches to 40 feet, and wher-
ever beu rock is reached it is very
rich. In several places shovel full
of earth taken from bedrock and care
fully washed yielded nearly 50 IN
coarse gold. many of the pieces being
as large as buckshot. A party OF
Colorado citizens who are here have
offered Messrs. Harlow q Cowan more
than 100000 for the concession they
hold, they to retain an interest"

The great manufacturing city of
Manchester, England sent a commits
sion to Germany, in view Of the severe
and increasing competition Of German
manufactures, to discover and report
ou the cause of German superiority.
The commission finds it is because
Germany has technical schools and
England has not. O1.e of the mem
bers says. "The English workers are
half sa,ages when compared with the
intelligent artizans Of Germany. ="
The time is coming when every In
telligent nation will recognize tech
nical education as the foundation or

Dangers OF the Grip.

The greatest danger from La
Grippe is Of it's resulting in pnen-
monia. If reasonable care is used,
however, and Chamberiain's Cough
Remedy taken, all danger will be
avoided. Among the tens of thou
sands who have used this remedy
for la grippe, we have yet to learn
of single case having resulted in
pneumonia, which shows conclu-
sively that this remedy is certain
preventive OF that dread disease. It
will effect permanent cure in less
