to Have Been PigeonhOIed.
NEW YORK, Nov SO.-Frank Moss
has sent to Gov. Roosevelt, Mayor Van
Wyck, the. police board and the district
attorney, communications regarding the
late negro riots and the part taken by
the police, especially in the investigation
ordered by the mayor.

II. Brooks, president Of the Citizens Pro-
tective league, an organizatio Lof co,ored
people. With each communication is sent
copy of numerous witnesses testimony
of clubbings by the police during the
riots, The object is to have the police
who did the clubbing and the officials,
the league declares, who are shielding
them, prosecuted and driven off the po-
lice force.
MIR. Brooks writes to the governor that
the police commissioners have discontin-
ued their Investigations, pigeonho'ed the
complaints against higher officials, and
have not proceeded against a single Off
Ger. The governor is asked to Investigate
in order that he may take action.
The letters to the mayor, police board
and district attorney cover the same
ground.

Will BE Sent to Kentucky, Says Sec
rotary of War Root.
WASHINGTON, January 31.-Secre-
tary Root is authority for the state
ment that there is nothing in the sit
uation in Kentucky calling for federal
interference. He is credited with the
remark that the State authorities are
perfectly able to deal with the situation
and are not apt to call upon the gen.
eral government for assistance. Fed
eral troops will be ordered to Ken
lucky only as a last resort and only
then upon representations Of the State
authorities that they had exhausted
all their and were powerless
to deal with the situation.
Gen. Merritt, commanding the de-
partment of the East and Gen. Brooke,
lately governor general of Cuba, were
at the wal department to-day but
their visit was a mere coincidence and
there is the best authority for the
statement that their presence in the
city has no reference whatever to the
possibility of the use of the federal
troops in the settlement of the
troubles in Kentucky.

WOOL.

BOSTON, January 31.-The Ameri-
can Wool and Cotton Reporter will say
tomorrow:
Several of the large consumers of
wool have been in the market during
ed about all the medium and low
woods. especially quarter blood which
they could get at a reasonable price
especially f1eeces. AS a result of the
almost unprecedented demand for such
woods stocks of that grade in this
market must be reduced to a pretty
low point, but there are foreign woods
of the same grade on the way to this
country which will fill up the gap, and
it is needless to say that there are
more obtainable. as outside of the
United States supplies of such woods
are plentiful. Fine woods are firm but
quiet. Prices generally are steady
and as high as they have been at any
time, and the prevailing feeling in the
trade is one of confidence and
strength. Holders of wool will not
concede and consumers have to pay
full prices when they purchase.
The sales of the week in Boston
amounted to 4,204 900 pounds domestic
and 250, 900 pounds foreign, making a
total of 4,454, 900 against q total of s.
1900 0 for the previous week and a
total of 1896, 900 for the corresponding
week last year. The sales since Janu-
airy amount to 1869 500 pounds,
against II, 3 900 pounds for the COR
responding time last year.

slight irregularity in some directions
caused by sellers of unimportant

this not having affected the status of

Buyers are commencing to arrive in

the primary market will show decided
increase and in the meantime there
does not seem to be any anxiety on
the part of agents concerning the flu
