tralian exports now promise to increase the 
quantity on passage. The week’s decline of 
domestic stocks officially regarded in sight, 
promises to equal 750,000 bushels. 
Wool has sold more freely at steady prices. 
Mr. Lynch’s annual estimate of the domestic 
clip is 333,5000,000 pounds, heavily in excess 
of previous statements, a larger product than 
ever before, except in 1384. This heavy crop 
may help explain the depression in wool prices. 
Sales of wool contine liberal in the various 
Eastern markets and prices are steady. 
For Coughs, Sore Throat, .Asthma, Cat- 
ai li and Diseases of the Bronchial Tubes, no better 
remedy can be found than “Brown’s Bronchial 1'roch- 
es." sold everywhere. 25 cents a box.— Adv.
