ltrndburn Interests Attracted by Lower
Level Here Than Abroad Wool
Market Stronger Than Growers
Realize.
Every day that passes brings fresh
vidence of the fact the wool market
is stronger and that northwest grow
ers are not yet being offered .prices
really Justified by the eastern market
and by the English market Prices
are advancing, however, and the mar
ket Is firmer than some growers re
alize as the buyers are making efforts
to minimize prices.
The most startling news today is
that foreign interests are taking an
interest in Pacific coast wool, attract
ed by the fact the price level is lower
here than abroad. A story in last
evening's Journal said:
Indications are pointing rather
strongly to business in wool with for
eign interests in American markets be
fore long. Already there are reports
that Bradford. England, firms are in
quiring regarding supplies on the Pa
cific coast, and it is said to be the in
tention of the foreigners to purchase
wool on the Pacific coast In compe
tition with the Boston, Philadelphia
and Xew York interests.
"With English woolen prices still
considerably above the American par
ity, even though quite liberal advanc
es have been made here to date this
season, the foreign interests Intend to
go after American offerings.
While no confirmed sales are' re
ported as yet to English interests to
date this season, the fact that Brad
ford houses are inquiring leads to the
conclusion that they are very, much
interested. This Is the first time
known that English interests have
even inquired regarding the Pacific
coast woolen trade.
