Wool.

BOSTON, Jan. 19-The Commercial Bull
letin tomorrow will say of the wool mar
ket: The American market has not re-
sponded to the recent drop of 12q1d in the
London sales of fine woods. American mar
kets had not advanced to a full equivalent
with the extreme height obtained abroad,
and there have therefore been no reasons,
beyond sentimental ones, for weakening. A
lot of 100000 pounds of venerable Utah fine
medium, strictly clothing wool, of 1898 clip.
was sold this week at 2011c, or over 6Oc
clean. 1t could not have been sold for
more two weeks ago. The drop in England
is caused, not by the wool situation, but
by the British defeats, which have shaken
business confidence abroad. Americans are
buying Irish and English woods freely
abroad i'm competition with American quar-
textbooks. The advance in carpet and
coarse woods has been followed by an ad-
vance of 219c on ingram carpets. The sales
for the week were: 3,1S3. 900 pounds domestic
and 200 pounds foreign, a total of 1856,
900 pounds for this week. against total of
2247,OO0 pounds last week and a total of
3,2O6, 900 pounds the corresponding week a
year ago. The receipts to date show an
increase of 7.45S pounds domestic, and an
increase of 1889 pounds foreign against last
year. The sales to date show decrease of
741 900 pounds domestic, and LIE. 900 pounds
foreign.
