The Toronto Globe of Wednesday of this week has the following comment on the wool trade :—There ie no change in the situation al home except perhaps that brought about by the closer proximity of holders of last eeaeon's olip to the new Clip of Optario wool. A great deal of the last olip Is still held by large dealers in the country and at primes above an export basis. Dealers here have knowledge of at least 800,000 lbs. of the 1900 olip which is offering, but it is impossible at the moment to work any for export at a profit- able price— a price whioh let out many holders flat, to say nothing of a margin for interest, expense and a small profit. A letter from the largest mill in Mane - (Anisette received a few days ago by E. T. Garter, commenting on market conditions said :—"I have been offered Canada fleece wool in Beaton for the past month at 26o —60 daye—and have not bought it bemuse I do not want it. I have bought adeal of bankrupt wool in Philadelphia and Boa. ton—Kente 25e, seleoted Irish hogs. Ole, sop. Irish hogs 27o and sup. Shropehire bogs 27c, all delivered Beaton, and 00 days. I cannot buy Canada wool," These prices are equal to considerably less than 15a Toronto. Another letter from a well- known American batter quoted a price for Canada liens which would require the exporter Mere to get the wool for 131 or less to show any profit. A marked change has soma over the wool trade in Anetralia, Argentina and in Montana and other territorial sections where large hum. here of sheep are raised. Formerly the sheep were raised primarily for the wool, and a email grade of animate yielding fine wool were grown, the mutton being a eeoondary consideration. Now the sheep 000 raised for export, whioh line been stimulated by the refrigerator trade, and the wool ie ooneidered ae a sort of bye - product. The sheep raised for the mut. 100 export trade are large, being erode- brede, end the wool is worse. Thue the amount of wool grown in the aountriee mentioned ie now entering more directly into competition with Canadian aorta, and our wool ie feeling the ol7eote of the obange in the situation. A firm in Liver. poor, writing to Mr. Carter recently, said : "The London auotion of colonial wools opened firm for merinos and floe arose- brede, but coarse oroaabrede showed a de - aline of 5 to 74 per cent. Since the open• ing there has been keen competition for the liner grade!' at prices which show a Alight advanoe, but medium and coarse Cash 1011 Wool !
