WOOL MARKETS. 

 ENGLISH WOOL MARKET. 

 LONDON, Monday, Oct. 25.— Since our last report a few 

 parcels of short wools have cliai)£;ed bauds at very full prices, 

 but ia lo)ig wools next to nothing has been pas'sing, on former 

 terms. The supply on offer is very moderate; but dealers act 

 cautiously, owing to the approaching public sales of colonial 

 wools.

BRADFORD WOOL MARKET.— There has been more 

 inquiry than for some weeks past, and some few sales have 

 been effected where any inducement has been offered. Prices 

 keep firm, and for bright-haired wools no ease is obtainable. 

 Noils and brnkes continue firm at the rates current a few 

 weeks a2;o. Yarns : There has been more inquiry amongst 

 the Delaine manufacturers of L:»nca3hire than for some time, 

 and several heavy orders are offering, but the rates are such 

 that the present price of wool compels tiie spinner to decline 

 them. Spinners continue busy, especially iu the spool trade, 

 where the demand is fully equal to the supply. The export 

 houses are not doing much just now. Tieces ; There is a 

 fair business passing, and manufacturers keep their looms 

 fully employed on order at more remunerative rates than have 

 been current for some time. Prices grow stiffer week by 

 week, an the manufacturers find warps and wefts worse to do. 

 — Bradford Obnercer. 



LEEDS (English and Foreign Wool Markets), 

 Oct. 23. — There has been a slight improvement in the demand 

 for combing wool, end prices are unaltered. There is no new 

 feature with regard to colonial, which is light iu stock. Prices 

 are well sustained ; but there is no disposition to speculate on 

 the part of manufacturers. 



LIVERPOOL WOOL MARKET, Oct. 23. 

 Scotch Wool. — There is a better inquiry for Laid Wool; 

 still late sales have been iu favour of the buyers. While is iu 

 fair demand. Cheviots and Crossed are still in limited de- 

 mand.
