BOSTON WOOL MARKET

Trading in wool has broa1ened out
quite suddenly this week, and prices
are materially stronger, though the
actual advances obtained are not
large, except possibly for the best
Ohio delaines. Speculative feeling is
running high for fleeces, both here
and in the middle west. Very little is
being done in the territory wool Sec
tions, as the growers are showing a
disposition to consign rather than ac
cept current bids. Buyers represent
ing eastern houses are finding much
difficulty in filling orders owing to
this unwillingness of the growers to
trade The Texas season was opened
this week, with the first sealed bid
sale at Kerrville, and this was ex-
pected to set the keynote for the sea-
son. Foreign woods are doing rather
better in the Boston market, owing to
the growing strength in fleeces, and
somewhat higher prices are being OBJ
tained. There was a continued heavy
movement in woods suitable for the
wooden mills, including secured terri
tories, pulled and cheap foreign
grades, as we'll as noils and wastes Of
all kinds. Prices for such wcols are
advancing.
There are evidences that some Of
the manufacturers have been caught
mapping, and Summer street says that
they have overstayed the market.
Woolen goods continue to sell freely,
and the woolen mills are running full
and are buying wool steadily. The
worsted mills are doing little bet
ter than previously reported, tut the
imnr0Yement is slow.
