WOOL IN NEW YORK.
The local wool market continues
dormant. The bulk of buyers' in
terest appears to be confined to
sample bale parcels. Of oourBe,
dealers are clinging to the hope
that tne sample bales that nave
gone forward give promise of early
oraers or more or lees importance.
Uealeis' dissatisfaction at the con-
tinned dullness in the market is
tempered by the feeling that the
time is steadily drawing nearer
when manufacturers will be com
pelled to increase the volume of
their purchases. The wool trade
is hoping and waiting on the de
velopments in the goods market.
They have felt that as soon as
manufacturers get seme fair or
ders on their, books .'they would
purchase some sizable parcels of
wool. As a matter of faot, the
possibilities of the manufacturers'
fall season have not yet been
sufficiently demonstrated to lead
them to depart from their previous
conservatively-timed buying meth
ods. A good many overcoating
lines have not yet been on the
market long enough to make a
showing as regards orders, but
some lines are not yet open. Con
sequently manufacturers find their
attention too closely held by ac
cumulating- developments in the
goods market to allow them the
replenishing of raw material sup
plies. Wool dealers have no basis
for the expectation of a bis spurt
in the wool business simultaneous
ly with the opening of the fall
lines, for the buyers of woolens
and worsteds are anything but
speculatively inclined. Large
orders will probably be the excep
tion and tne improvement in the
business situation will be all the
more healthy and lasting on that
account. There is nothing to in
duce hurried action on the part of
the manufacturer in the matter of
wool purchases. Prices, he feels,
are not likely to go against him.

AN AUTOMOBILE 8HEEPF0LD.
"Of recent years nearly everv
town is supplied with an electric
generating plant, and frequently
tne wires are strung along country
roads from town to town. This
fact," says "Electricity," "has led
a man named McNaair to attempt
the use of electricity on the farm.
Be has devised a curious pen some
15 feet square, built of wire and
mounted on broad, flat wheels.
This pen is designed to run in any
pasture, even thoogb it be billy.
Wires connect it with a small
motor stationed at one side of the
pasture, this in turn being connect
ed with the eleotrio wires from
which power is derived. A turn
of the button and the pen slowly
creaps aoross the field. That is the
essence of the invention, and sim
ple enough it seems. A. machine
of this type is being experimented
with at the Agricultural Experi
ment Station of Michigan, at Lans
ing. Two lambs and part of the
time an old ewe have been pas
tured in the pen during the sum
mer. The field is planted with
lucerne, growing thick and heavy.
The pea is so arranged that it
crawls the full length of the pas
ture in one month, traveling about
two feet an hour; at the end of
this time it is switched around and
travels back again. Aa it moves,
the sheep eat every bit of the
fodder, eagerly cropping next the
forward side of the pen as it runs
over new ground. A bit of canvas
duck is hung over the corner of
the pen oo that the sheep may be
well sheltered, and, curious as it
may seem, they have become so
accustomed to the movirjg of the
pen that when they lie down to
sleep they snuggle up close to the
forward end of the pen so that
they may lie as long as possible
without being disturbed by the
rear end of the pen as it creaps to
ward them. When the pen has
passed, of course, the luoerne that
has been cropped by the sheep im
mediately grows up again, and by
the time the pen has made its
monthly cirouit the pasture is
again in good condition. The ad
vantages of this electrical pen lie
in the fact that the sheep are kept
from running over, half eating and
tramping down a large amount of
pasture, and it keeps the sheep
quiet, so that they lay on flesh
rapidly."
WHEAT TALK.
Oregonian, 20th, says:
The wheat market was weak all
around for the past six days, and
the close yesterday was around the
lowest for the week. The Bitty
option in San Francisco sold down
to $1.03 per cental, the lowest
price of the season, and in the east
there was a dull session, with low
prices. Locally, exporters are
proceeding under' shortened sail.
The dooks are groaning with car
goes for ships long overdue, and
some of them have tonnage covered
ahead as far as next April. Under
such conditions, exporters are
more inolined to hold off for either
the farmer or the shipowner to
give way. The latter is showing
some weakness, but as yet it is
not reflected in any actual trans
actions, and the only disengaged
grain ship in the Pacifio North
west is still holding firm at 42
shillings, a figure which is at least
a shilling above what she could
secure.
The ruling quotations for Walla
Walla wheat yesterday were 54
and 54 cents, but some offers of
55 cento were reported. There was
but little business done during
the week, and unless the market
shows a radical improvement, a
slow movement will be in evidence
for the next few weeks. January
shipments will be much smaller
than those of December, on ac
count of a shortage of tonnage, but
(flour included) will run pretty
well up to the 2,000,000 bushel
mark.

On bis recent visit to his old home
town of Jefferson, Geo. Conger found"
that the place had picked op consider
ably, and now had 500 people, with a
new and commodious institute. The
neighbor farmers have bnilt better
honses and made nice homes, and a
good deal of brnsh land has been
cleaned np and set to work making a
living.

BOSTON WOOL MARKET.
Boston, Jan. 16. The American
Wool & Cotton Reporter, will shv:
The past week in the wool trade
has been as quiet as possible.
There has been no material chaDge
in business here. Mills have not
shown any great tendency to come
around to the dealers' terms, and
on his part the dealer feels that he
is not so pushed that he must come
to the buyer and beg him to re
lieve him of his load. An impres
sion has gone around that the
American Woolen Company has
been making good-sized and fre
quent purchases of wool since Jan.
1, ' some dealers estimating the
oompany's purchases in the mil
lions. One report has been current
around the market that 1.000,000
pounds changed hands last week,
with the combine as the purchasers.
This can be denied in the strong
est terms and on the best author
ity. The American Woolen Com
pany did buy a considerable
amount of wool a month or so ago,
ana bought it for delivery after
Jan. 1. Henoe it is very easy to
soe why it should have been mov?
ing a considerable quantity of late.
It has been taking up, not buying
up, a considerable quantity ol
wool. The fact is that the buyers
of the company did not make a
single purchase during the latter
nail of the week, and their total
purchases for the week would not
amount to 500,000 pounds. The
sales for the week in Boston
amounted to 1,520,000 pounds do
mestic and 190,000 pounds foreign,
making a total of 1,715.000 pounds.
against a total of 1,710,000 pounds
tor the previous week and a total
of 2,965,000 for the corresponding
week last year. The sales since
Jan. 1 amount to 4,874,000 pounds,
against 8,035,600 pounds for the
corresponding time last year.
POOR OLD LADY.
A cablegram from London says :
Facts now being brought out show
that the queen's mind has been failing
tor many months. Before ber visit to
Ireland she bad been a mental wreck
for months. Whenever it was. officially
announced that she made felicitous re
sponses to speeches at public functions
it Is a matter of cold fact that the poor -
old Queen was in such a daze that all
she could say to her companions was:
"Where ana I?" Several times when
she appeared in public during the past
six or eight months she has fallen
asleep.
Had it been any one else but the
Queen of England it would have been
plain long ago that the malady was
senile decay. And that truthfully is
what afilicts Victoria. But for her
physical breaking up of the past week,
an attaok of paralysis in the left side, it
would have been possible for the court
and the royal household to have kept
from the people knowledge of her
mental decay for an indefinite period.
For the Queen had lajmes of intellectual
vigor, but these were more distressing
to her than her periods of mental den
sity. When her brain was clear she
immediately reverted to the horrors of
the war in South Africa. Again and
again she harped upon the war. This
war which she strove with all her
power to avert, made the last hours of
England's Queen, who has reigned
happily longer than most men live,
most wretched and miserable. In her
lucid intervals it haunted her Inces
santly.
The Queen's strong constitution mani
fested the first symptoms of serious de
cay duriog the stay of the court at
Windsor in November, 18H9, when evil
tidings of the South African war began
to arrive in rapid succession. The Queen
did not look for any serious disaster to
her array. She expected nothing but a
series of quick, easy victories. She felt
that she bad been deceived.
It was at this time that the Queen had
the fits of crying In an aggravated form
which immediately preceded ber pres
ent critical illness.
In December her feebleness rapidly
increased, with the characteristics of
senile decay.
The public, however, was hoodwinked
by the accounts ot Her Majesty's doings
and utterances given to tha newspapers
by her household. Unusual care was
taken to have ber alleged replies to
addresses and other evidences of mental
activity set before the public, In re
ality the Queen lived as in a dream.
rihe was reported to have made an
animated reply to an address presented
to her at the Mount Anville Cenvent, in
Dublin, whereas all she said was the
dazed inqoiry, "Where am I?"
The Tweatleth Ccatorr.
We now stand at the threshold ot tha
twentieth century, and the nineteenth is
a thing of the past. It will, however,
always be known as the oentury ot inven
tion and discovery, and among some of
the greatest ot these we can truthfully
mention Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, tho
oelebrated remedy tor all ailments aris
ing from a disordered stomach, such as
kyspepsia, indigestion, flatulency, oon
stipation, nervousness and bilionsoess.
It bas been one ot the greatest blessings
to mankind dnring the past fifty years ts
health builder. Many prominent phy
sician prescribe and reoomment it.
Take their advice, try a bottle and be
convinced, but be sure to get the genu
ine, with onr private revenue stamp
over tbe nsok ot the bottle.
