The aggregate stocks of wheat held at Port- g | land, Or., and Tacoma and Seattle, Wash., show a gain of 166,000 bushels for the week. WOOL BOSTON, Jan. 1S.—The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow: While the wool markets have been quieter during the past week than for a long time, they have not been without some interesting features. One of the most important of these | is the pronounced inquiry for wools grading BOSTON MARKET. and this inguiry has extended to both domestic and foreign stocks of this description, Aus- tralian crossbreds in particular having been well sought for and firm in price. In fact, these wools are quoted fully a cent per pound higher than they were o manth ago. Cross- breds had been depressed disproportionately in comparison with merinos. says: | “In pulled wools there is a firmer feeling, to- | especially on ‘“‘B's” ahd combings, and the same may be said about carpet wools, which the buyers have shown more disposition to pur- chase. THe sales of the week in the Boston market amounted to 2,247,300 pounds domestic and 438,000 pounds foreign, making a total of 500, against a total of 3,210,500 for the pre ohi. | week and a total of 377,000 for the correspond- ‘- | ing week last year. 9 & | amounted to ced quality and prices declined 5@10c.
