WOOL PRICE HOLDS
DESPITE AUCTIONS

For some time ii has been conceded
that the Boston wool market Is the
cheapest market in the world, and
Frank NJ. Eshleman now states in an
interview with The Street that 1t is
the largest. Eshleman says it ap-
pears that more wool has been han
died through Boston during the last
few years than through London, for
merly the worlds premier wool mar
ket, as eighty per cent of the wool
Icgp of the United States passes
through Boston, and, in addition, that
port receives large imports. The rea-
son for Boston's priority is attributed
to the large consumption of wool by
the New England mills and to the en-
terprise Of the wool merchants of this
city, assisted by the banks.
Little new business is reported in
the wool market and dealers do not
anticipate that there will be much
doing now until the new year. AL
though the holiday feeling reduces
the amount of business, it has no eff
feet on prices, which remain strong,
with an upward tendency.
January bids fair to be a good
month for the wool trade as, in addi-
tion to the government auctions, the
Australian and New Zealand woods
owned by the British government will
be offered. The regular government
sales are to take place from January
Ito Ianuary 10 the nIIrnOSe at ures-
ent being to offer secured woods on
Saturday morning, January 10.
About 25,000 bales arrived on the
steamship Masula at the end of last
week and is now awaiting transporta-
tion from pier to the warehouse of
j.. Koshland & Co. on Summer street,
where samples will be exhibited about
January 18. The latest plan is to
hold the auction on January 81
