Demand for Wool Still
Strong in Boston Market

BOSTON. Oct. 8.-With the great de-
mand for wool which has been prev
alent for the last four months the dues-
ton arises among dealers as to where
the supply Of material for use in the
manufacture of heavyweight goods is
coming from. Foreign woods are not
PLENTIFUL owing to tariff conditions.
and domestic woods have been heavily
drawn on so that & wool famine is
actually predicted unless some relief
comes before many weeks. When the
tariff rates are definitely known there
will be big rush for wool. With the
postDonement Of the settlement Of the
tariff matter the situation is aggra-
waited for the wool trade Conditions
will undoubtedly result in higher prices
all along tho line.
The scarcity or prospect OF 2 scarcity
has been produced largely by the de-
mand for knitting yarns, including
hand-knitting yarns, and dealers have
been ready TO take advantage Of the
fad which has 80 affected the goods and
the raw material markets. Durinr the
last week, too. there has been more
activity in wool tops and yarn for
weaving purposes.
The success Of the government AUG
ton sale is q general reflection of con-
d tions. although throughout the trade
there will probably be rejoicing when
TIE wool is ell gone. It was practically
no per cer+ sale, as only six lots out
of the 303 offered. continuing 100000
pounds, We're withdrawn because the
bids made were net high enough. The
sale showed, too, q need for coarse
woods in some quarters Of the market.
