Boston Wool Market.

Boston, Aug. II. 1909.
The receipts of wool for the week were
2. 707 726 bales of foreign and IA 564, 1854 bales
domestic against 1895, $50 bales foreign
ard II, 855 bales domestic for the same
time last year.
REMARKS-The market has not only
been very active. but the demand has been
broad and prices continue to show
hardening tendency both on this side of
the water and abroad. The latter fact
undoubtedly has had much to do with
the activity of the market. as 1T has
been well-known for several weeks that
the manufacturers did not have nearly as
much raw material as their orders for
finished goods indicated they would need.
They have held back with an idea that
prices might have a reaction from the
heights TO which they have climbed from
the low level of year ago. But as local
unsold stocks Of wool are down now to the
size they usually are about the first of
November, theresis much confidence that
a greater part of the wool now owned by
the merchants will be needed long before
the foreign woods offer much Compel
