Wool.

BOSTON. May 1.-THE American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow: There Is
little moro activity to be noted in the wool
market without. however. any Improvement in
prices yet. 1t is felt that prices have at least
sagged down to working basis; that Is, they
have reached a level at which consumers are
willing to operate. One consumer Is quoted as
saying, in fact. that prices which manufacturers
are paying for wool will enable them TO
make light weights which be sold at nearly
last years prices. From this time on. there
fore. the trade are inclined to look for more
business in the wool market The deadlock be-
tween the growers and the buyer continues in
the Territories, and the bids made at the public
sales In Casper and Rawlins were generally re-
jected. In some instances, however. growers
are more inclined to make concessions. The
sales of the week in Boston amounted to III. 900
lbs domestic and 520. 900 lbs foreign, making a
tota. of 2631000 lbs. against total of 1,652,00
lbs for the previous week. and total or 3,3l5 800
lbs for the corresponding week last year. The
sales since Jan. 1 amount to 57,963, 900 lbs,
against 49, 500 lbs for the corresponding time
last year.

ton sales to-day numbered 900 bales Compe-

Horses.

UNION STOCKYAKDS, lNDIANAP-
OILS. May 16.-As a natural result of the
exceedingly liberal receipts OF horses last
week, the marketing this week has been
of small volume. Shippers probably antici-
pated a limited demand. and evidently
there has been no effort to get stock on
the market. The different stables did not
receive enough to warrant them holding a
separate sale. and the supplies were all
thrown together and disposed of in one
sale. Around 100 head were offered. consist
ing principally of chunks and heavy horses.
The attendance of buyers was small but
large enough to exhaust the supply. and,
with the quality generally satisfactory. the
offerings were disposed of at quotably
steady prices. There was rather quiet
feeling In the market from the beginning
to the close. and the bidding was not as
free as usual. but a good clearance was
made, and the last sales did not show any
quotable change in prices compared with
the opening. Draft horses sold as high as
slsO. and other sales were reported as low
as $65.

May 6.-Cattle-Receipts, 800; shipments,
100. The receipts of cattle were unusually
large for this time in the week. and larger
than at any time since the last Of March.
A large proportion of the arrivals were
steers. including quite a number of good
export grades. but no strictly fancy kinds.
The market opened with statesmen asking
steady prices, and later, with good compe-
tition between buyers, especially local
killers, the offerings were changing hands
promptly and good clearance was made
