BOSTON WOOL MARKET.

BOSTON. June s.-The price of wool in
the local market continues to advance,
but trading is falling of slightly. due. it
is believed. to the high cost level. AS 1t
is estimated that 30 per cent OF the new
clip has been sold. very little weakening
in values is thought probable. Montana
woods are selling at 28 cents. and manu.
facturers are paying 35 cents for Ohio
three-eighths and "a cents for one-quarter
blood.
Both worsted and wooden mills In New
England are speeding up and are now

sion Of two years ago Combing and

pronounced strength and NUMBER OF
important issues scored noteworthy ad-

Southern Pacific was in all respects

somewhat irregular and the transactions
in the stock were upon a very large

a fairly steady tone prevailed in that

Light Dealings in London.
Transactions upon the London stock
exchange developed no special features
of interest and were in light volume in ad-
vance of the fortnightly settlement. For
eign houses were sellers here on balance,
although upon only small scale.
There was good deal of discussion
with regard to the showing to be made
in the government crop report, which was
not made public until late in the after
noon. but the figures were preceded by
very lively advance in the July wheat op-
tion in the Chicago market.
