to Import on a 72-cent basis clean
wool for which the speculator on this
side wan demanding more money. If
ho paid the speculator 74 cents this
week, the latter promptly advanced
his price the next.
An Impression exists that the
market Is being manipulated by the
American Woolen Co., which contracts
about r.O per cent of the loom capn-
city of the United States, and many
growers are declaiming lliut a bear

nt shearing time. This is entirely er
roneous as last year shearing time
witnessed n boom. The present bad
market Is not of recent development,
a:- symptoms of demoralization were
detected late last summer ond con
ditions have been growing worse ever
since. I regret that Mr. rinchot, In
his recent speech at St. Paul, attack
ed the American Woolen Co. in such
scathing terms, declaring the tariff
worthless to the grower and consumer
alike. Men of Mr. Pinrhot's class are
doubtless well-intentioned but their
enthusiasm runs away with their
Judgment. Modern conditions necessi
tate vast aggregations of capital, such
as the American Woolen Co., nnd
such aggregations need curbing, but
wholesale and unqualified denunci
ation Is questionable at best. As I
look at It the American Woolen Co. Is
controlled bv the brightest talent in
the trade and thnt talent, surveying
present and prospective market con
ditions, concluded to apply a little
trade pressure. It wos realized thai
wool could be bought high at any
time and that good judgment dictated
a policy of playing for lower prices.
But for the boom a year ago this .YS
would probably not have been ne
cessary. Mlllmen inaugurated n
hand-to-mouth policy last summer
and have been pursuing it ever since
simply because, In their judgment,
speculators who got control of the
1909 clip overplayed the game.
"While there Is plenty of wool In I

j THREATEN 10 EXPORT AMERICAN WOOL
4 IVo-iou Dculcrs Disgruntled at Conditions on Tills Side of Atlantic.
The follow ing interesting account of j
w market conditions In America
j-nii Europe is taken from a recent
Nsue of th; Breeder' Gazette, pub
lished in Chicago:
Imagine a nation raising about 60
jcr cent of the wool it consumes pro
posing to export us a relief measure!
Vet this is what Boston dealers are
: r.-;it ninp News from that wool
center Is that owing to a stagnated
market this side of the Atlantic con
signments of domestic staple are to
he made to London where periodical
wiles are active and prices higher
than here obviously an abnormal
situation.
Trade experts are diagnosing the
.-iluatlon variously. They all agree,
however, that presenl wool market
depression Is the natural sequence of
rhe boom of the first half of 1909.
Just a year ago the man with a clip
of unsold wool was courted by the
dealer who was then in highly specu
lative humor. The Incidental boom
was short-lived. Manufacturers re
fused to permit speculators to hold
them up and went abroad for staple
tc keep their looms running, the re
sult being displacement of a consid
erable proportion of the domestic clip
of 1909. The American market- be
gan falling when manufacturers be
gan Importing and has been getting
worse ever since. The trouble with
the wool market now Is that specu
lators are carrying a lot of last year's
staple, acquired at high prices, and
manufacturers are gunning strenu
ously for them.
Will the exportation of American
staple reach any considerable vol
ume? A. J. Knollln, of Idaho, thinks
not. "It Is an unnatural trade move
ment and such movements are ephe.
meral," he said to The Gazette rep
resentative. American mlllmen will
not permit much domestic staple to
go to London sales for the reason that
they cannot fetch It back as cheaply
as they can buy It here. The threat
to export was doubtless conceived to
force trading on this side of the At
lantic. My own opinion Is that a
trading basis for the season will soon
be established. That It will be lower
than last year goes without saying.
I notice some activity In the West.
Already I have been wired a bid of
17 1-2 cents for my clip. Unless I get
19 cents I shall order It Into storage
at Chicago. Some sales have already
been made in Idaho at 18 cents
against 23'i.24 cents a year ago."
Describing present conditions Mr,
Knollln said: "A year ago middle
men were buying wool at almost liny
pi Ice within reason the grower saw
fli to ask. Xow eastern concerns have
a swarm of solicitors In the field
seeking consignments on which they
can arrange advances of 10(8)12 cents.
This is good policy on the part of
eatscrn dealers who have everything
to gain by getting control of the clip,
as with the new season's staple In his
possession he will be in better shape
to put a price on the wool, ho carried
over, which must be sold nt a loss
In any event. The dealer gets the
commission on consignments anyhow
and that Is so much money to the
good. Meanwhile co-operative ware
houses are filling up and If the mar
ket picks up as the season advances
an era of warehouse construction will
he Inaugurated In the West. The
Chicago warehouse, which received
only 7,000,000 pounds last year, Is
getting 25,000,000 pounds this rea
son, taxing Its capacity, and the co
operative warehouse Idea Is getting a
good try-out."
"Manufacturers will soon begin to
show Interest In the market," pre
dicted Mr. Knollln, "for the reason
that they have been buying sparingly
and the same policy has been pursued
by wholesalers, cutters and retailers.
This is the bright spot on the market
horizon. Everybody In the trade
