BOSTON WOOL, MARKET

BOSTON, JAM 13.-The American Woo!
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow
As a rule dealers in wool report the volume
OF business as about the same as in the
previous week but in few quarters in
business large sales are reported. Among
the sales In Boston Is a lot of one million
pounds Of Australian and q rumor is that
also picked up at least 500 900 hounds of
fleeces and one million Montana and that
another 'well-known mill is rumored to
have picked up 100000 pounds of wool
has been a very fair movement of Austria
Han. Prices are nominally the same as a
week ago. The sales for the week in the
three principal markets aggregate 6,625 900
pounds, 3,1S0.900 pounds being foreign.
Sales since January 1st have been TO- 10, 300
pounds. as compared with 1858, 100 in the
same period of 1896

THE CITRUS CROP.
Prices Fair and the Market Reasonably
Well Maintained.

The orange market for the current
season has been fairly we'll maintained
and early shipments have realized sat
shipped systematically. But little can
be known of average conditions outside
of exchange circles, owing to the fact
that all such transactions are on
individual basis and of private char
acter. While exchange people are sat
isfiedl with past conditions, there Is more
or less uneasiness among outside grow
ers, with tendency to a lowering of
prices In fact. this condition of affairs
has already made itself felt in serious
cuts at the other end of the line, for
which there would seem to be no cause
except an over anxiety on the part of
outside shippers to move present hold
ings promptly in order to make room for
future shipments of purchases to be
made on the basis of the reduced price,
and with measure of profit in sight.
1t is difficult to maintain uniformity
of price in the absence of uniform and
systematic methods of marketing, and
until growers come to realize this fact
they must expect fuctuating and uncer-
tain conditions In the markets, with q
constant tendency downward. Prces are
now ranging at about SIPS per box for
navels and 80 cents per box for seedlings
on board cars. This is probably 25 cents
per box less than the markets would
justify under other conditions.
The total shipments for the season ag-
gregate about HOO carloads, of which
the exchanges have shipped somewhat
less than 300. Had the exchange pro-
norton of ShipnpntS and. condition of
fruit been maintained throughout, there
can be no question that the present
would have seen a more active demand
at better prices. Conservative, syste-
matte methods must tell in the shipment
of fruit, as in everything else.

WALL STREET SPECULATION
Dealings Limited and Mostly Confined to
Sugar Stock
Government Bonds Show an Upward

Certificates Neglected and Low.

NEW YORK. Jan. 13.-Today's extreme
ly limited speculation was fairly we'll dis
tributed aside from sugar. which figured
for nearly ore-quarter of the aggregate
dealings and the tone was In the main
strong. The movement was irregular,
periods of mi-stagnation alternating
with spurts of comparative activity. In
the early session the market was spirited
and higher prices were recorded on London
purchases and moderate local commission
house buying eked out by covering of
shorts. The improvement was considered
due to the pressure of idle money, which,
In the absence of the recent prevailing
disturbing rumors and reports. is inducing
Investments in bonds and stocks of in
trinsic merit. The traders generally APP
peared disposed to play the bull side, owing
to the failure OF the long stock to come
out In recent raids. In addition to stocks
the trade and the contingent bought roll
way bonds. The specialties were again
conspicuous. Very little interest attached
to the annual meeting of the stockholders
Of the American Sugar company. as moth

be transacted. The stock sold up q frac-
ton early but in the later hours declined

general dullness after midday and aside
from the decline In sugar the late move
ments in prices were relatively unimport-
ant Realizations caused slight fractional
recessions. but in the final dealings the
selling pressure was more pronounced and
the market closed heavy at unimportant
net changes. The demand for prime bonds
was I'm excess of the amount offered and
issues which have been long inactive are
now prominent in dealings at subst antially
advanced prices. The sales were 81. .556, 600.
Government bonds improved slightly on

tinued neglect. were dealt in at 64H for

READ THIS LETTER

LOS ANGELES. January !, 1895
10 the public: L was seriously affiicted
Tor about ten years with lung, liver anu
kidney troubles Tongue could never ev-
press the misery I endured during those
years. 1 was reduced in flesh until / was
a mere skeleton. My sight and hearing
troubled with constipation and piles, and
had a. severe chronic cough. In short, life
was burden and death would have been
welcome. l was treated by various spec
ialists with out avail I finally resolved to
give DR.. Wong Him, of No. 639 Upper Main
street. trial. OF course, like many others,
l had no faith in Chinese doctor, but it
took only. few doses of his life-giving
herbs to knock all the skepticism out of
me. In Just five weeks the doctor pronoun-
ced me cured. and now.I can truthfully say
better in my life. My sight and hearing
are both fully restored; that obnoxious
cough, constipation and piles are entirely
cured, and I am rapidly gaiAing in flesh
l earnestly recommend all sufferers and
skeptics to give the doctor a trial and be
convinced Of his superior skill as ply
sician.
JOHN M. STEVENSON.
620 Bellevue avenue, Los Angeles, Cal.
To the Public: / take pleasure in tes-
tifying to my marvellous recovery under
Upper Main St, Los Angeles. from a num-
Der of stubborn ailments, among which
were chr1nic sick-headaches, dyspepsia
and kindred stomach troubles, heart affec-
tion and kidney disease. But what con-
slider this physician execlled in. so far as
my case is concerned. was in the restora-
tion of my eye service. Astigmatism
coupled with other disorders, was my af-
Fiction in this respect, and. although a
number of we'll known skilled oculsts in
some of the larger cities of this country
advised me l should always have to de-
pend upon glasses. and receive but poor
service even then, DR.. Wong Hm's rem
edies have enabled me to abandon totally
the use of any artificial help to sight, and
my eyes continue to give such service,
both for near work and distant, as is truly
wonderful To the skill and remedies of
the physician named can alone be attrib-
uted a revolution in my physical condition
throughout that puzzles those who knew
of the ''incurable'' character of my ar
fictions. Respectfully,
G. L. PLOWMAN.

against any possible future labor troubles.
Americans were better but there was little
doing In them. Mines were also better and
copper shares were strong. The India
council is increasing the amount OF its
weekly drafts offered. The Paris and Ber-
lin markets were steady.
