Compared with closing rates at Liverpool, greasy Merino, market irregular; wool suitable for Yorkshire, par to 5 per cent, decline; wool suitable for Continent, par to 5 per cent, advance. Scoured Merino advanced 5 per cent. Crossbred (greasy): Fine, market shows no material change. Crossbred (greasy): Coarse to medium advanced 5 to 7£ per cent.
