Wool Market.

The wool market has been ex-
tremely dull during the week
ending Jan. 1st and almost devoid
of feature. Few manufactures
have been on the market and sales
reported are consequently small.
Sales of the week in Boston, Philia-
deIphia and New. York aggregate
2.285, 600 pounds, 1912, 100 being
domestic and 1851, ,952 foreign.
Manufactures are still extremely
uncertain as to the characrer of
their orders.
The year 1895 is destined to :
stand out prominently in the
annals cf the wool trade, sales of
wool in the three principal markets
Of the country to Dec. 81, aggre-
eating 2+4, 211,3OO as compared
with 347, 600. 1O5 pounds Dec. 81.
1895, and 261, ,e67, 229 pounds Dec.
Is, 1892.
The leading event OF the year
has been the closing down of
large part of the wooien and
worsted machinery of the country.
This movement began early in the
year and it is conservative 20 esti-
mate that during midsummer at
least IS per cent of the machinery
was idle. A noteworthy feature of
the II months just closing has
been the speculative character of
the market. Prices have been
lower on most grades of domestic
wool than during the late summer
and early fall of 1896.
Receipts of domestic wool in
Boston for the year aggregate
13l, ,766, 800 pounds. To this must
be added 80, SO, ,797pounds carried
over from the previous year, max
ing a total of 212,5O7 179. Sales
of domestic an ounted to Ill, ,7OO,-
200 pounds. and in addition to this
at least 1900, 1000 pounds were
shipped abroad Receipts of
foreign amour ted to 90,916, 500
pounds, to which must be added
about Is, 173, 300 pounds brought
over from 1895.
Sales of foreign aggregated
~, 039, $50 pounds. Besides this
amount 6,625, 600 pounds of
Australian went directly to mills,
and 5, 329, 900 pounds of Australian
were resbipped. Adding to the
above the amount of carpet and
other woods which went direct to
mills there was left on hand at the
end of the year foreign wool to the
amount of 15,045 900 pounds.
The stock of wool in Boston, not
including wool in store owned by
manufacturers, is 99,906,577
pounds domestic and Is, ,045, 900
pounds foreign, as compared with
so, ,730,07S pounds domestic and

Wamsley. We doubt if the doctor
will plead guilty 10 the charge.
There are good many amusing
incidents III connection with the
efforts of applicants for the minor
offices. Yesterday as DR.. Wamsley,
populist member-elect from Teton,
was crossing one Of the downtown
streets, bicycle rider circled
around him as only good rider
can do, and just as the gentleman
expected to see him light on his
head, the rider gracefully alighted,
and right in front of the doctor.
81 have been looking" SAID the
rider, for populist member from
one of the northern coun ties, and
| cannot find him anywhere. l
have forgotten his name, also.
Can you inform me where l would
be likely to find him?'
"a populist you want, is its
queried the doctor.
Yes sir.
"Then, if he is enough pop
ulist, you want to look in the livery
stables If he is simon>pure, YOU
will find him eating hay"
The bicycle rider looked a little
stunned, and before he could
recover, the populist member from
Teton had escaped.

THE EXTRA SESSION.

The Oregonion, evidently speak
ing with a full knowledge of the
subject, disposes of the talk of an
extra session of the legislature as
follows:
"a good deal Of idle talk is be-
ing INDUCED in, and many rumors
are af1oat to the effect that there is
soon to be an extra session of the
legislature. Some persons affect to
speak authoritatively on this sub
ject, but, as a matter of fact, all
such talk is idle speculation. Gov
ernor Lord is the only man who re-
ally would know whether or not
such a course will be pursued, and
the great majority of the citizens
do not now believe that he will do
so. There is less public interest
in a demand for an extra session,
bu should the time for such action
10 DC taken on his part, in his judg-
ment, occur, then it is possible that
an extraordinary legislative session
session will be called
Governor Lord is not the kind
of a man TO be influenced by polit-
ical efforts, gotten up to effect a
purpose, irrespective of public opin-
ion and public interest. He is keep
ing his own counsels, evidently
holding in mind the best interests
of the state, and TO be guided ac-
cordingly. No one has ascertaircd
from Governor Lord an opinion mp
on the subject of calling an extra
session of the legislature, nor is it
believed that one will be called, I'M
the public interests so require"

THE YAQUINA IMPROVEMENTS.
Delegation Undecided Whether to
Press the natter.

The following dispatch from the
Otegonian's Washington cores
pondent is Of much interest to
a considerable portion of Oregon:
Washington, Get. I4.-It is not
yet known whether another at
tempt will be made to have 81, ooo,-
900 expended at Yaquina bay. AS
IS we'll known, congress appropri-
ated the money tor the improve
ment there, aud said that the Sec
rotary of war may" contract for
whole amount of the improvement.
An opinion, ore of those conven-
lent opinions which are obtained
when wanted, was rendered by the
encouragement, in which he held
that the word may" did not mean
"shall," and that i, was not man
datory on the part of the secretary
to make the contract. Secretary
Lamont then decided not to make
the contract, although the Oregon
delegation made considerable stir
about it. Resolutions were intro
duced calling on the secretary to
give reason" why he turned va
quina down. The secretary sent
replies which did not give the real,
true reason, which was that he, the
secretary, believed that the Yaquiua
improvement was a job, and a bad
one, and the government ought not
to expend money upon ii. When
the new administration came
into power, it vas thought that the
delegation would be able to induce
the new secretary to go ahead with
the improvement, but Secretary
Alger also refused to make the con
tract. 1t appears that all the engi'
neers of the army who say anything
about Yaquina have advised the
the secretary that it ought not {
be improved to the extent o
100000
Possibly the coming session o
congress will take some action, anC
the engineers are looking forward
to the incorporation in the rive
and harbor bill of a provision max
ing the letting of the contract 70
