WOOL TRADE REVIEW .

Boston. Mass, Oct. 16, 1901.
The inquiry for wool has shown

though the business is still ir.
regularly distributed among

ume of business actually done
has increased slightly. however,
and there are not wanting indi.
cations that before long some
good. sized lines Of wool will be
moved, Prices have rnled firm,
and on some lines, notably
choice fine woods, positively
strong. The strong closing of
the London sales, and the add
vance in prices established
there have strengthened percep.
tibly the tone of the market here.
The mills as a whole are very
busily employed, and few com
plants are now heard from the
manufacturers as they come into
the market. Nearly all Of them
have got all the orders which
they can attend to.
The receipts of wool in Boston
this week amounted to 1898
bales, against 9.841 bales last
week and 6,314 bales year ago.
The sales of the week in Bos.
ton amounted to 4,430,300
pounds domestic and 415,000
pounds foreign, making total
