A NATIONAL WOOL MARKET.
Philadelphia May Be Chosen as the Place
for Great Auction Sales.

Philadelphia. Apri. CspeciaD There is \ moss
bility that Philadelphia may become the greatest
wool market in the world The Wool Auction Sales
Company OF America. which is now being organ
ized. has for its object the establishment Of M
uonal wool auction market in the United States
similar to the one in London, England The choice,
lies between Philadelphia. New York and Boston
+. J Primrose. Of No. 1874 Chestnut street Phila-
dephia. is 1T the head Of the organization Already
a membership of wool growers has been obtained
representing production of 10000 pounds of
wool annually. The proposition is receiving cordial
support among the textile trades generally and it
is hoped that the first sales under the new pIan
will be made within the next six months
What such enterprise will mean to the CITY
which IS selected may be seen by a glance at the
statistics Of the London auction sales, which will
eventually be ecipsed by the American sales If
the plan proves successful These sales are held
sixteen times a year-in January March Nav
July, September and November. Each sale lasts
two weeks, and on an average between 100000
and 100000 pounds Of wool are disposed of daily
At American prices this means sales of about
81 .0ooO"5 a day. The years sales total , bout
81, ,0eoogl Wool growers and textile manufacturers
from all parts Of the country would attend the
sales The project unanimously indorsed by
the National Wool Growers Association at a re
cent meeting in Hclena, Mont.
The question OF location is vital one said
AIr. Primrose, discussing the subject. The sales
must be held in a place convenient 10 the buyers
and where shipping and hotel accommodations are
ample. ] haV" been inclined TO favor New York
the most practical place. hut I would be very
glad 10 Philadelphia chosen. It is a matter
that business and trade associations ought TO
look into"
OF the t150 textile mills that use wool in tho
United States, SOL within a few hours ride
of Philadelphia. At present manufacturers are
obliged TO maintain buyers in Western markets
deal with commission merchants The growers
must procure the best prices they can by individual
bargaining. Tho auction sales would establish a
regular market under the control of the growers
themselves
