THE WOOL SALES
Sydney, November 27. At the wool sales, competition was keen and strong fin all classes. Super greasy combings brought up to 18fd, a record for the season. • London, November 27. W 001.—7180 bales were offered, including 1188 from New Zealand. There was an excellent selection of merinos, but a poor selection of crossbreds. The attendance was unusually large. Competition was very brisk. Compared with October closing rates, merinos advanced 5 to 7\ per cent., shafty and light conditioned showing the greatest appreciation. Fine crossbreds advanced 5 per cent., and coarser 7J per cent.
