The boston Wool Market.

Bradstreet's.
There has been a large amount of
wool sold in this market dufing the
past two weeks, the bulk of it being ia
ken by manufacturers. At the close
the market is no higher, but the tone
is more steady. The feeling is more
confident that the bottom has been
reached. Considerable bankrupt wool
has been sold both here and in Phila-
delphia during the past two months,
and with this wool out of the way the
tone is stronger. For territory woods
the secured basis for fine medium
and fine is about 40@43 cents, with sta
pie woods at 44@46 cents and shorter
and defective lots at 35@3S cents down.
as to quality. Fleece woods are quiet,
but held steady. For quarter and three
-eighths blood unwashed fieeces the
range is about 21@23 cents. About O.
coo bales old Australian wool cleaned
up on the market at 33 cents, the clean
cost being about 65@66 cents. The
London auction sale of wool opened
March II with wool of 60 quality and
above firm, quarter-blood crossbeds
steady and fine ~crossbreds about 5 per
cent. below the close of the previous
London sale.

frmness this week. The quotations
for bars in London advanced from

New York figures were correspondingly
strengthened, rising from 607c to

NEW YORK, March 16.-Stocks.-
The remarkable demonstration made
by the Burlington stock in to-day
stock market had a decisive effect in
lifting prices generally to a higher
level. The persistent and growing
strength of Burlington overcame the
tendency towards heaviness which was
manifest at some points in the first
hour of the trading. But the taking
or speculative profits, which was ap-
parently the cause of this h~eaviness,
continued all through the late squirt in
Burlington. IL was Offset to a sufn-
cient extent by the new buying which
came in through commission houses
to lift prices in the majority of cases
through the realizing offerings. There
were exceptions on the side of weak
ness. ST. Louis & San francisco
dropped sharply two points under yes
terday in the midst of the buoyancy OF
the market. Ihe coalers made no not
able response to the rise, seemingly
on account of the possibility still re-
naming of a clash with the miners.
st. Paul was a notable laggard in the
granger group and got as much
as a point over last night.
Pacific Coast gained 3as; New York,
Chicago & st. Louis first preferred and
American Tobacco 2, and the newly
listed american Snuff preferred 2k.
The steel stocks turned strong at the
last, and Amalgamated Copper rallied
sharply from early weakness. The
closing was confused by the break on
profit-taking on the extreme advance,
and the undertone was strong. Deal
ings in low grade bonds, especially in
Wabash debenture BIS and Mexican
Central incomes, were on an enormous
scale. Fort Worth & Denver City
firsts rose 4 points. The loan contrac-
ton and the consequent small shrink
age in surplus reserves caused the
bank statement to be favorably inter-
preted.
There has been a very active demand
for railroad bonds during the week.
Southwestern railroad issues and low
grade speculative mortgages have been
most largely dealt in.

It has long been supposed that
France. or at least a Frenchman, is
necessary for the acquisition of a prop
err French accent. This is no longer so,
now that an economical substitute for
the Frenchman has been found In the
monograph. II Is understood that a
corps of French professors are spend

Is to fill thirty Photographic cylinders.
These cylinders are destined to go forth
bearing precious French accents into
thousands of happy English homes. A
book has been prepared called THE
Pictorial French Course" 1t contains
thirty lessons, each illustrated by a
picture inCeniously portraying the OBJ.
jects alluded TO In the lesson. Each
lesson corresponds. word for word. with
one of the photographic d-iscourses. All
that the student has to do. therefore.
is TO set his phonograph going. The
