CO Disaster

CO Disaster
San Francisco, April 26.-Fifteen
minutes after the earthquake in San
Francisco last Wednesday morning
the cruiser Boston put to sea with the
Pacific coast squadron under COM
mand of Admiral Goodrich. Not a man
on board of any of the four vessels
that composed the fleet was aware
of the disturbance.
At II o'clock on the morning of the
same day, while many miles from
shore, a wireless message from one
of the southern California stations
was received and Admiral Goodrich
was apprised of the disaster in this
city. The Boston returned immedi
ately to San Pedro harbor and re
manned long enough to take aboard
many tons of supplies from Los An
geles.
Lieutenant Commander Brand, of the
Boston, said: Had it not been for
the wireless service the squadron
would have known nothing of the
earthquake and fire. Needless to say
we are delighted to have been of any
assistance

Eastern Wool Market.
Following is Dun's current review
of the wool market:
Quiet conditions prevail in eastern
wool markets, chiefly because of the
strength of prices which prevents
much business offered at concessions.
Manufacturers continually seek raw
material, but fear to stock up at pres
ent quotations in view of the POSSIBLE.
ity of cancellations of part of the
orders for goods now on the books.
Yet there is no evidence of greater
ease in the situation, especially as
western ranch owners are holding
even above the eastern parity in some
cases. Foreign news is also of a sus.
tanning nature, although liberal re.
ceipts are arriving for the next Lon.
don auction sale.
"Boston-The wool market is quiet.
Some large sales of foreign crossbreds
made late last week are announced,
but the demand from manufacturers
has been light this week and few
buyers have been on the market. Do
nestle grades are comparatively neg
lected The undertone of the market
is firm, but prices are no higher and
there is no prospect of an advance,
Notwithstanding the strength of for
eign markets and the high prices paid
to growers in the interior. Sales of
crossbreds are at Al to AZ cents and
80 cents is the highest that can be OBJ
tanned for domestic one-quarter blood.
These grades showed the most adj
vance in London and yet sold here at
the old figures. Receipts for the week
were S,25O,11S pounds and deliveries
4,10O,S0O pounds.
Fort Wayne.-Adams county re-
ports the marketing of the first clip
Of this season; the quality is good,
price paid 20 cents.
"Milwaukee.-The cold weather is
retarding shearing, but in some sec
tons some progress has been made.
Farmers are generally holding at &c.
Offerings Of 25c are made, and an &C.
casional trade is reported at 2Gc.
There are still about 100000 pounds
of old wool in the state held at 29c
to soc.
la Crosse.-No sales have been re-
ported, and there seems no DISPOSE
ton on part OF ranchmen to make
contracts in advance. There are no
contagious diseases in any part of the
state, and prospects for good crop
are favorable.
Portland Ore.-Many eastern buy
ers are in Oregon awaiting orders to
purchase wool, but views of buyers
and sellers are from two to three cents
apart and no contracting has yet been
done. Shearing is now almost gen.
eral Mohair is moving more freely
at an advance of one cent over the
opening quotations"
