RAILS LEAD MOVEMENT Tre -wool nill be handled in Portland this season than ever before, in spite of the strong prices being paid In the coun-f try, according to present indications. With the stock now in storage and the ship ments in transit, the Portland Wool Ware bouse Company ill have 0O.00O pounds on hand by the close of next week. TVltlt wool-prices climbing In all parts of the country and Eastern authorities pre dicting stiH hieher values, Oregon grow e-rs this season snow a disposition to hold their clius and await developments. Their bullish enthusiasm is naturally increased by the efforts buyers are making east of the mountains to get possession of choice wool. A spirit of speculation has taken hold of growers iu many sections of th' country and tliey believe thir chances ot profiting by not selling early were never better than this year. In the Willamette Valley, where country merchants and other buyers have been offering prices on a rising Hcale, they have found the farmers unusually slow sellers. The tendency in the Valley this year is to fft the wool together in larger quantities. either m pools t-r in consolidated lots, as this method Is more attractive to buyers and nets better results to the sellers. l'rojects of this sort are now under way In Yamhill, Linn, Lane and Douglas coun lies.

There are 1103 man ufacturing concerns using wool In the United States, and up to this time only a half doaen or so bavo come West to get their wool. If a larc rart of the North Pacific clip csn be gathered here for sale it will attract a larger number of Kastern buyers nnt the growers will get the benefit of the Increased competition.

BV YORK. May 12. With few note worthy exceptions stocks of ai roost all de scriptions moved to higher levels in today's broad market. Dealings embraced far more than the usual number of issues and extended from 1 to more than tf points in 1 standard shades, being trebled or quad rupled in aomo of tue highly speculative sp-iaitlcs. Tne movement derived much of its im pulse from an early rise in rails, Canadian Pacific leading that division with an ex- 1 treme gain of 7i points on very large trad ing. New Haven was next in point of strength, gaining 4 points largely at the ex pense of a short interest, while other eastern lines, as well as coalers and Southern is sues, improved 1 to U points. Further ac tivity in Big Four common and preferred, which advanced 6 and a points, respectively, pointed to DoasibllitiHs of increases in the dividends in issues controlled by the larger railway systems.

U00J prices aro being paid by wool buyera in all parts of the West. One of the active sections ia around Rawlins, Wye, on the line of tho Union Pacific, where one clip of 300,000 to 400.000 pounds has been obtained by a Boston house at cent a and other business is noted at 30 to SI ' cents for medium clips. Some interest is noticeable in Central Utah, on the basis of 24 to cents for fine clips. Eastern houses are get ting medium wools on the Utah-Colorado border et 32 to 155 cents, but these high rates are not significant, as the wools are so much lighter than other sections offer. From Billings, Mont., it is reported that a representative of Hallowell, Jones & Don ald, of Boston, has purchased 250,000 pounds of wool at 30 to 31 cents. Other business In medium clips is being done at 31 to -cents. A few fine clips have been taken In the section around 20 to 27 cents. Sheer ing has Just commenced in Texas. A few clips of the state have bean consigned. The shearing of the 300,000 sheep of Te hama County, Cal., is practically all com pleted. The yield this year is below thi average, due to the cold, hard Winter, but the 1.650,000 pounds of wool will bring top prices, according to advices. It is reported that Boston buyers in the state have been l'aying 24 to -3 cents for the short eight mouths' wools and -Q ta 27 cents for the best twelve months.
