WOOL.-Business Is quiet, hut prices are nominally 
strong. Holders express themselves assured that 
there will he no pressure of stock and that business 
will open with a good support to as full If not better 
quotations than are now current. This mav not 
strictly apply to low grade wool, ns a long neglect 
mav Induce concessions. A good point of reliunce 
for holders Is the fact (hat foreign markets are high, 
and there is not much dauger of competing Importa¬ 
tions.

definitely revoked, anil CtmUucntul trade at the mo¬
