WO0L--Boston. June 12-The AmerJ-
can Wool and Cotton Reporter will say
tomorrow of the wool trade: There is a
slightly better feeling in the trade as tbe
result of the improved conditions noted in
the goods market. The demand has been
more more general sS, this week than for some
time The purchasing, however, has been
m very small lots, which in the aggrr-
gate makes a fair average volume Of bust
ness The feeling in the trade is that
business is going to grow broader stead
NY For fine woods there is a good IN :
curry and the statistical position of such
stock is strong. Territories therefore ara
hrmly held. Coarse and low woods are
also rather steady. There has been no
decline as far as can be learned AS to

down to such low point that the foreign
carpet mills are coming in and taking
them in great quantities. which demand
appears to have steadied the market
temporarily at any rate. There are manv
who believe that the lowest prices on
these grades have been seen. The earl,
shorn woods In Wyoming have been prett,,
well cleaned up and many of the huyers
nave left there. Montana will be the nexf
scene of operations. The sales of the
