WELLINGTON WOOL SALES

ANIMATED BIDDING. The wool salo held in thfj Coriccrt Ciaiaher of the Town ilall yestcrdaj , was remarkable lor the cheerful tone ef the market, and tho animated bid.-dine. Therewas a full u'tendanoe of buyers, more being present than at the Decomber sale, and from tho wtret biddini? was bri3k, buyers sho-vving a licen dssiro to secure a? much wool a» po!C-lble. Tlw Centincii-t-al representatives exhibited a nartialttr for. fine wools, and their limits were higher than at the December Side. Price" were on n. parity with December, and cilanid if any wn-s in favour of sell'-'rs; t-h's aaplies more particularly to coarse, medium, and fine c.rostbrcds.. Toe reports of the several r.elling firms aro eiven . DALGETf AND CO, LTD, -3 The -occ/iid local vr.iol sale of the season was hold in tho Town flali yesterday, licforo a. lar?o attendance of buyers, representing American, liradtora, and Continental, buying houses, Jien Zealand woollen mills, aud local buyers. At t-hi' outset' it was noticeable thai buyers wero lieen *.o get oil the wool possible, and animfi.teii bidding was a. feature of tie sale. Tlisrc were more buj-ers oiieratiat;. than at. the December «ale, thoea from Bradford beins more in evideuce, whilo the Continent wa'a well to the front wjih hisher limits for finer wools. Compolitjon from America was slightly better than at the Ve-ember sale. Tho total, quantity cataloged by ali brokers wd£ approximately !2,'.C0 bales, as against 55.E55 bales, at the "January .3aTe of 1913, thi) diffcrenoe beins' caused msinly owiajj to the serious delay in shcarinE operations caused by the excessively wflfc weather throughout tho district, and soljio wool heiusr fiiippcd to London because of the recent drop in prices. Our nroportion of yesterday's offerines was 5689 bales. There was very little diiterence jn the condition of the wool when compared with the December sale, and some was carrying a fair amouut of seed. The majority of tho clips were carefully cat up, and some of the Romncy woo! opened out attraetivc.ly. The bnlk of our catalogue comprised good to fair crossbred -wool. Ho? jet wool wa-s in fair condition, apd was not so tender as that offered in December sals, a.lthoii2h tick stain was noticeable throughout. Since tho December' sale growers luvo prepared thcmselvc3 to face tho drop in tiio market, and the prices rulint; in December have now been considered as satisfactory, and the net returns have bec-u BCod. ■ Advices from London contiuue to prove that tho woollen trade in Bradford is dull and dragging, while America- seem 3 unlikely to operate to .".ny great extent before probably next season. The 0011tinent'il demand, however, i? {rood, &urt they are holding up tho market* Yesterday thero was a. better tone in tho market, which can bo described s≤ firmer, and showing an advance on December rates of from par to a farthlntr on coarse Eicdium and fine crossbrods. Half-breds were, if anything, inclined to be in buyers' favour. Tho following is a comparison of prices:— Dec, 1193. Jan., 1?«. d. d. d. d.
