Wool.

BOSTON. March 4.-The American Wool and
Cotton Reporter Will say to- morrow OF the wool
trade: The market has been very active the
past week. the Boston market receiving a gain
in sales of 20 per cent. compared with the cor
responding period of last year. Foreign woods
New York considerably exceeding those or
domestic. The sales of the week in Boston foot
ed up Il. 679. 600 pounds, 6,o59. 0J being domestic
and $3.50. 900 foreign. The trading in Boston has
been largely speculative. so much so that il has
been impossible to clearly make out how much
of the wool changing hands has actually gone
out of the market. The speculation in foreign
woods has been especially noteworthy. We know
of at least three sales of 5000 900 TO LOCO. coo pounds
each in Boston to the trade and of an offer to put
800. 900 pounds, which. however. was not accepted
These show conclusively how the outlook for
prices is generally regarded. Prices are eX-
tremely firm. although there has not been any
wrote. Still greater activity and higher prices
are looked for.
LONDON March 24.-The catalogues offered at
the wool auction sales to-day were large and
consisted OF 1917 bales. OF which Loco were
withdrawn. The attendance was good and the
bidding was spirited for all good wool. while
faulty stock ruled irregular. Good TasFnanian
woods sold well at full prices. The American
buyers purchased about 1900 bales. Merinos and
cross-breds retain their high level. The sale is
fixed 70 close April 8. Following are to-day
