BOSTON WOOL MARKET. sl AT BOSTON, June L—The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow of the Wool market: Considering that we have had one Bboliday the past week and that Satuiday as a Jhalf holiday is always a dull period, the market has been fully as active since our last report as it was the week previous. The situation is 'dominated by the West. Growers and dealers are now at loggerheads over the new clip, and while they are fighting it out Wool is being shipped East on consign- ment. Wool is held very firmly in the West, but there are not a few buyers who expect to see Western holders ‘weaken In their prices eventually, and they are deferring action in anticipation of this. The sales of the week in Boston amount to 1,640,000 pounds domestic and 495,000 pounds for- eign, making a total of 2,135,000 pounds, against 2,340,000 for the previous waek and 4,782,000 for the corresponding week last year. Sales since January 1, 188, amount to 30,483,810 pounds, against 21,147,288 last year. CALIFORNIA FRUIT SALES.
