RATES ADVANCE
v/ool sale at napier meets animated bidding BRADFORD BUYER ACTIVE NAPIER, Wednesday. The fourth wool sale of the season was held at Napier to-day, when the prices were better than anticipated, an advance being shown on the rates socured at the recent Wellington sale. Competiton was most animated within restricted limits. The selection generally was of poor quality. The bulk of the offering was lifted by Bradford, the next largest operator beiiig Japan. France was not so active as usual, and except for good lambs, necks and pieces, her operators were seldom heard. New Zealand scourefs secured several inferior lines at prices lacking competition. The highest price secured was 8|d for a line of A.A. hoggets under the brand of Tautuku, Gisborne., Compared with the Wellington sale, fleece wools were better by one halfpenny. Pieces showed dearer and others were unchanged.
