On the wholesale streets and on Commission
row thus far this week trade has been quite &C

In price changes few. Receipts of straw
berries the last three days have been very large
and considerable quantities have been shipped to
markets further north. Cherries are coming in
freely and backberries are being shipped in here
in large quantities for so early in the season.
Red plums in good supply. Few green apples
are offered Old Irish potatoes are in good re-
quest and selling better than at any time in the
last two years. Poultry, eggs and butter are
not quotably changed but on large receipts are
easy in price. The dry goods houses have had
a very fair trade this week and some bargains
have been given to dispose of stock. Grocers are
quite busy Sugar is firm at the advance Of
Monday.

Wool.

BOSTON, June 9.-The American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow of the wool
trade: Tine market is decidedly more active.
Buyers for of the large mills, both worsted
and wooden, have come in during the past week
and have taken a considerable amount of wool,
and negotiations other lines are reported to be
in progress which may result in additional sales
before the end of the week The increased ac-
tjvty has been principally noticeable in Aus
tralian woods, the inquiry being for all kinds at
prices ranging anywhere from 26c down to loo.
There has been more inquiry for fine Australian
than formerly, with considerable business trans
acted around 20n21c. Large sales of South Amer
lean woods also continue to be reported In
domestic wools while some houses report a little
doing, trade generally has ruled very quiet. Sales
in Boston for the week aggregate 100000 pounds,
OF which $4,000 were domestic and $4,000 for
a.

hands and 1obbing markets there was little ac-
tivity shown Mail orders, too were few and
far between in all lines. The most marked effect
OF the backward is shown, OF course, in
tie jobbing houses, in the poor returns made by
retailers for all departments of summer goods.
Staple cCttOns show no change of moment in any
grade Bleached goods again duh and brown
goods show no increase Of buying. Coarse colored
cOttons in all grades quiet, with proportion
ately heavier buying in denms than in any other
single line. Print cloths are still higher. Printed

Contrary to expectation, the governors of

decisive action on the question of renewing

was not denied that the matter was freely
discussed at the meeting. The special com

night ago to receive suggestions regarding
the matter from members of the exchange
