who had the misfurtune to be on with
their clips began to realize that such
was the case before the days sales
had hardly begun. They took their
hard luck rather philisophically, how
ever, and in most instances let their
clips go after they had been sampled.

inferior to that which had been Of
fered on previous days, but it was
evident that the buyers were not as
anxious after wool as they have been
heretofore. On several clips only one
