Boston Wool Market.

-, Boston, April 2.
Tho receipts OF wool for this week were
J,61 bales domestic and 1874 bales for
eign against 1883 bales domestic and
430I bales foreign for the same time last
year.
RF.AIARkS-It has been a dull and m
interesting week in the local wool mar
ket. There has been fairly active
movement Of Australian and New Zca-
appears to end. There have been some
sales of domestic woods, but not many,
and 1t is safe to say that individual con-
Germs have often sold as much wool in 81
week as the entire trade has succeeded
in moving during the past week. But
there is n reason for the duf.ness. Home
WOO woods OF al sorts are !, pretty scarce in
r p i' aIc5 ,a1,n al; The worstad
here. There seems to be & fairly good
supply OF short-stapleG, or clothing woods
but the best of them passed some time
ago from the lhards Of the dealers, and
what Is now available is heavy and not
az all desirable. Quartcr-blood fleeceg
also remain fairly plenty, but for some
reason or ether they have not been very
much wanted during this season. They
nave been he'd at pretty stiff prices all
along; that fact may explain why they
nave nave not gone more readily; but it is
true also that they have Tot been used
much in, the fabrics now offered. Prices
% lot change much from week TO week
but under the bulish adviccs from
abroad, the market has a firm tone

and the supporters of William
H. Taft, Secretary Of War.
These are great men, but For
aker has been defending corpo-
rations and railroads so long, he
is not alive to the interests of
'the people" as he is to the great
corporations from which he has
grown rich. Secretary Taft be-
lieves in making the corpora
lions "obey the law" and treat
all alike. The people of Ohio will
see to it that the great Secretary
triumphs over his honest, but
undesirable Presidential aspi-
rant.
