Of the mills will be sufficient to absorb
enormous quantities Of wool during

the depleted stocks, which are all the

than lower prices are likely to be

simply have no other alternative than

BOSTON WOOL MARKET ACTIVE
AND FIRM.
A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
Holders and Buyers View Situation
from Widely Different Point
as to Future.

The weeks sales of wool on the
Boston market totaled 6,34O, OOO
pounds, including $4,000 pounds ter.
ritory at from IA to 20 cents per
pound.
The market continues firm, and not
w~ithstanding the holiday feeling that
pervades the trade, more business has
been done the past week than during
the previous week, says the Ameri-
can Wool and Cotton Reporter.
A considerable portion of this in
creased business consists of the pur-
chasing of some large lines of quar-
ter, three-eights and half-blood un-
Washed feeces, mostly quarter-bloods
and about t~hree-quarters of a million
pounds of spring Texas woods These
sales, combined with quite a steady
movement in territories and pulled
woods, foot up a very good-sized ag-
gregate.
The large mills have been more con-
spicuous in the buyings, although the
smaller mills have been in evidence.
They have been especially DESTROYS of
securing medium stock, which is still
low relatively compared with the
price Of foreign stock Of correspond
ing grade. Domestic medium woods
are getting scarce, and they r be-
ing consumed very freely. the com.
paratively high price Of fine woolsf

having naturally exerted an influence
in the direction of a freer consumption
Of a lower grade. This increased de-
mand for medium stock not only ex-
tends to 1eeces and territories and
pulled woods, but also to foreign stock.
There has also been a better demand
for low stock, and English and Irish
woods have figured more conspicuous
ly in the weeks business.
While the demand base been more
pronounced for medium woods, it must
not be inferred that the finer woods
have been neglected. Consumers
have been looking after these woods,
also, although no very large transac-
lions of this class of woods have been
put through, but the inquiry extends
to everything. and the week as a whole
has been characterized by a good gem
eral business, larger in volume than
is usually consummated at this time
Of the year.
Two Views Of the Situation.
While prices are strong, it is not
easy for holders to secure further
advances than those previously noted,
and some large are not
slow to express their opinion that the
danger, point has been nearly reached.
They argue that wool cannot sci: for
more money on the present basis of
the goods market. The people,, with
the advanced prices established OF
the n-ecessaries Of life, are not in a
position to pay any higher prices for
clothing, and buyers of wool point to
the fact that it is the low-priced over
coatipgs that have sold, and it re-
mains to be seen whether the new
heavy weights, if they are opened at
a substantial advance over last years
prices, will be taken very freely by
the clothing trade. Attention is also
called to the fact that the worsted
yarn mills have been running very
LUZ loI d ioHS time, n the result is
a good supply of noils, and that the
latter will be a factor in the manufac-
ture of goods for next year.

Three Years Ahead.

The anthracite strike was practically
a repetition on a much larger scale OF
the suspension here nearly three years
ago.
The operators assumed the same attl-
tude toward organized labor, the latter
for while insisting upon recognition.
The anthracite people, however, led by
John Mitchell, were far more power
full moral force than the Georges Creek
miners, headed by William Warner.
Nevertheless, i'll every issue OF the
JOURNAL from April to July !, 1900,
there was an editorial plea to the COM
panies to meet their men i'll their or
ganized capacity. Single and alone
among newspapers, it took and held TINS
position-this for the reason that 1t fore
saw a time soon coming when they
would be comp"iied to do this.
That time has about come.
Say what you please, gentlemen, to
the contrary, mining union labor,
whether rightfully or wrongfully, is
present business force that cannot longer
be ignored by business men.
But the JOURNAL ; main purpose here
in is to remind its readers that all the
recent criticisms by hundreds of news
papers of the policy of the anthracite
operators are but elaborated echoes OF
JOURNAL editorials nearly three years
ago.
Not only so. but the most notable of
utterances in the National Civic Fedora
ton convention, held i'll New York dur
ing this week. completely verify the
wisdom of JOURNAL contentious during
the trouble of 1900 here.

One or the Other.

The Pittsburg pa Post, speaking OF
railroad movements across the ALE
ghanies hereabont, says ''Meyersdale
will be on the end of a spur'-a simile
indicating that the town named is to be
largely given the go-by.
The JOURNAL mentions the matter
only to show that if the Electric Railroad
company is allowed to do as it pleases
here Frostburg will also be located ION
the end of spur"
When, therefore, the time for action
comes Council should have that road
extend Hr0ngh town, or drive it out.
