WOOL.

BOSTON, July 25.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-
morrow:
The wool market has shown a dis
tinct improvement during the past
week. There have been manufacturers
in the market looking around. More
inquiries for sample bags have been
received by mail and more wool has
been actually sold including some good
sized lines of territory Texas and
quarter and three-eighth blood fleeces.
One large wooden mill is reported to
have taken on a considerable line of
territory and California woois Most
of the woods, of course, were old woods
but they reduced considerably the
amount of such stock which has been
hanging over the market awaiting pur-
chasers. Holders are not now SO ur-
gent in forcing the wool as they were
and better feeling exists. Manufac-
turers in many instances are talking
quite encouragingiy and it is felt that
just as soon as orders are placed for
Light weight goods there was more bus

sales and reduction in the estimated
French yield came to the aid of the
previously weak wheat market to-day
and September closed A@$sc over yes
telday. Corn closed Zee lower and oats
1sc down. At the close the previous
market showed 21a to 15c decline.
September wheat started out B@Ac
over the previous close at 753a to 1850,
scalpers buying on a half-hearted hope
OF a rally following the recent heavy
decline. Their hopes were blasted in
short order, however, for there was no
support at that time. Gables were
weak, weather in the northwest was IA
vorable for harvesting and outside peo-
pie apparently did not know there was
such thing as as wheat market in
this city. The market naturally began
to decline and as it went down stop
loss orders We're caught and the liQui-
dation thus induced helped the slump
along. Liverpool said that Argentine
wheat was being offered cheap and that
the English talent expected liberal ar
rivals from Russia. Not till September
bumped up against 743s, the bottom OF
the present decline, did the market re-
ceive much support. Soon after the
cash part OF the market began TO at
tract attention. Cash people had sold
between 100000 and 100000 bushels,
most of it hard Kansas, and were COW
ering in the pit. Shorts were further
jolted by cable announcing reduc-
ton in the estimate of the French
crop from 310000000 bushels to $780,
100000. Trade became active and
September rallied steadily to 753sc and
closed soon after in firm condition,
September AG% over yesterday at
751a@5sc. New York reported 81 loads
taken for export and of the cash sales
here 10000 bushels were reported di-
rect to the other side. Seaboard clear
ances in wheat and flour were equal to
100000 bushels. Primary receipts ag-
gregated 1877 900 bushels compared
with 10000 last year. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported 251 cars against
1S1 last week and 3S5 a year ago. Lo-
cal receipts numbered $50 cars, "a of
contract grade. Fine growing weather
over the largest area ever planted Civ
ing promise of bumper crop caused
a further decline in corn although weak
Liverpool cables were also an infiu-
ence in this direction. Liquidatlo-l
was renewed early and the price fell
off over a cent. There was still good
cash demand, but the smallness of
country offerings made it hard to find
sellers and this, together with the re-
action in wheat caused a partial re-
covery later. Trade was quiet. Sep

The shipping demand for product was

ferent. Packers were not buying and

METAL.

. NEW YORK, July 25.-The feature
of the operations in the metal market
to-day was a sensational drop in tin
of about cent and half. due almost
entirely to the utter collapse of the
spot corner. At the close, spot tin was
very weak at 3275@33.00. Futures
were entirely nominal. Copper in
London declined los, but ruled quiet
with nothing doing here at $3.50.
Lead and spelter were dull and un-
changed at sS.97kQ402ik and s2.25@
4.30. Only a small jobbing business
was in progress for iron and steel at
the lowest figures. Old material was
again somewhat lower. The brokers
price for lead was 1895 and for copper
$3.50.
