WOOL MARKET

WINTER SALE AT WELLINGTON. PRICES MUCH BETTER THAN EXPECTED. (By Telegraph-Press Associate n.) WELLINGTON, This Day. Prices realised at the first of the winter wool sales, which was held at Wellington yesterday, were much better than had been expected. The total quantity catalogued was 2808 bales, of which about 2400 bales were crutchings, the remainder being fleece wool. There was a good bench of buyers and competition was keen for all good average lots. One broker said the market was about one penny better than had been expected. Super crossbred crutchings made from 83d to 91d, and in a few cases as high as 93d, and good average sorts from 73 d to Bid. The range of prices was generally as follows: —

Bradford and the Continent were the principal operators and it was reported that some good orders were filled for Canada and Australia. Dominion mills and local buyers also filled their requirements. Passings were infrequent and of the total offering, fully 90 per cent was sold at auction. BROKERS’ REPORTS. DALGETY & CO., LTD.
