RABBITSKIN MARKET
* SALE AT DUNEDIN, GOOD DEMAND FOR WINTER SKINS. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) DUNEDIN. May 7. An offering of 58 tons at today's rabbitskin sale met a market in the throes of adjusting itself to the newly-fixed sterling-dollar exchange rate on the one hand and to the large proportion of heavily spotted pelts offered for sale on the other. Resulting irregularity in competition revealed a drop of Id to 6d in lower grade hatters, Id on heavily spotted autumn grades, but a rise in clean pelted lots for the overseas furrier trade. New grades of winter skins' mot with a very good demand. 86d being paid for early winter bucks and 90d for first bucks.
