NBW YORK, March 22.—The Commerclal Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: The markets here were dull to-day, but firm on the rise in consols, due to sinking fund pur- chases and the African arrangement with France.

May opened %c to lc higher at 63@f%ec, and as several trad- ers who have been skeptical as to serious dam- age to winter wheat changed their minds and showed a sudden desire to become possessed of contracts for future supplies, the market con- tinued to maintain an upward tenden By the time the price got to §9%e, however, the most urgent buyers' wants had been satisfied, and as soon as this support was withdrawn the advance came to a halt. Then longs started to take profits and as there was a good deal of selling for the short account it did not take long for the price to recede to 68%c. Liverpool closed with a gain for the day of from 1d to 134d. This, together with fresh out- side buying orders that came in, which were more than sufficfent to absorb the offerings, started another upturn and at the close May wheat was bringing 695@65%e. The corn market was strong and the specu- lative business good. Receipts were very light and indications were dn favor of them running slim for some time to come, as the few accept- ances of bids amounted to almost nothing. May closed %c higher.

BOSTON, March 22.—The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say to-morrow: There is a better feeling in the wool trade than there was a week ago. Although it is generally admitted that the' formation of the worsted trust may bring about some change in cstablished methods of doing business, it is realized that even if the plans of the promoters of both the worsted and woolen trusts are car- ried to a successful consummation, they will be able to control less than a half of the machinery employed in manufacturing goods, so that it is-acknowledged generally that ths Dbulk of the wool consumed will continue to be purchased as it has been. Temporarily, how- ver, there |s more pressure to sell than there as, and prices are on the whole easy. The sales of the week in Boston amount to 1,621,000 pounds domestic and 469,500 pounds toreign, making a total of 2,390,500, against a total of 1,871,500 for the previous week, and a total of 1,299,600 for the corresponding week last year. Sales since January 1, 1899, amount to | 41,064,500 pounds, against 35,425,980 pounds last | vear ‘at this time. LONDON WOOL SALES. LONDON, March 22.—At the wool auction eales to-day 10,912 bales were offered. Scoured merinos showed a hardening tendency. There was an all-around competition for wool, with prices fully maintained.

HAY AND FEEDSTUFFS. There was no Hay market, owing to tha rain. Feedstuffs remained quiet and unchanged. The circular of Somers & Co. gays of Hay: “The weather has interfered with business to so great an extent during the last week that we have nothing much of interest to report concerning the hay market at the present time. The continued dryness and rather light receipts were causing a considerable movement with hay and prices were advancing rapidly. Rain always has a depressing effect on all produce markets, and as it Interferes with the hand- ling of hay we have found during the past two or three days that priees have dropped back a bit, more especially as receipts are run- ning somewhat heavier this week than last. “Many farmers who would not sell their hay at any figure ten days 8go are Now commenc- ing to unload. If all the holders of hay con- clude to get rid of thelr stocks immediately the market will probably be overcrowded and we will see z still further decline in prices, If, however, hay is sent to market slowly and evenly we will note a firm tone to the market and possibly an advance of from $1 to §2 per ton over the present range. “A careful estimate of the amount of hay in the country contributory to San Franclsco con- vinces us that there Is just about enough to supply us until the advent of the new crop. 1f a greater portion of the hay is marketed at once prices will decline temporarily, but when a shortage is noted, say In a month's time from now, hay may jump up $5 or $ per ton. We would not like to see this condition of affairs, but would advise all holders of hay to send In their goods in a moderate manner, thus insuring a healthy tone to the market and helping to hoid prices to an even range. Re- celpts for the past six days have been close to 2200 tons, 400 tons in excess of needs. “Oregon and Washington have about quit sending hay to this market, for they find a better market throughout thé southern portion of the State where stocks of hay are very low. An occasional straggling shipment of timothy comes to market, but it does not meet with much favor."’ BRAN—$10 50§20 50 per ton.
