WOOL MARKET.

Boston. July 20.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter viii say tomorrow
Of the wool trade:
The market is improving, not very fast
as regards prices, but with more or less
speed as regards the number OF inquiries
The fact appears 20 be that some OF the
mills have sold a good deal OF yarns, per-
haPs AZ some reductions. though al a good
profit. being rather anxious TO take their
hands on good lots OF wool before there
are material advances. There have been
very good-sied transactions since our
last report. a feature in the market has
been an increase OF the selling. Tn
washed heeces have been unremicting and
there has also been quite movement in
medium and washed aeeces. Business is

All Markets Break and Local

TOPS GLUED TO 1878
Quality Just Fair and Receipts
Light.

The live stock markets everywhere ex-
perienced a slump yesterday ranging
from TO 10 cents. The carry provision
market acting in consort with the lower
tendency OF hogs, also went off on the
opening and remained so for most Of the
trading, later hrming up on professional
buying OF lard, and authentic denials of
the yellow fever scare, The local hog mar
ket. in natural sympathy with all other
live stock centers. early exhibited signs
of weakness and the bulk of the sales
for the light run of hogs received went at
Z ices generally to 10 cents lower. The
top price, nevertheless, was not in the
least affected, and $375 again represents
the top for the best load of the day. II
begins to look like no sort of d break
could change the top price any from
what for two weeks It has been. with
only one or two days exception. Be the
bulk what 1t may, or the quotations what
they may. 1915 still remains day after
day the top price. 1t was taken yester-
day by car load OF very good medium
weight butcher hogs. sold to the Dold
company as soon as received. The run
was light yesterday In both thu wagon
trade and car lots, the rains nearly every
where in this belt probably making IL
difficult TO market hogs or reach = ship
ping point with them. Only about 100
hogs came in and all save one very light
load were easily disposed of. the shipping
demand being especially good. AS TO quail
ity. the stuff received yesterday was only
fair in the main, with a few fair to good
lots and one little extra. The bulk Of
the hogs were light, the average weigh
being only 21S, Il pounds under that OF
the day previous Six cars were weighed
up and the weight of these ran from
192 pounds to 81, the minimum being also
the low point of the range of the bulk.
The demand was good, and all sorts and
conditions OF hogs sold without any trou-
bic, pigs. thin stock, roUghs and the bet
ter grades all selling easily. The trade
was active at the lower prices, and more
hogs would have been equally well ia
ken care OF, and a more choice lot would
readily have taken the premium. The
shippers IN were all iGbilant over the
better outlook since the rain of Tuesday
night and stock hogs will as a result be
better property.
