Heradd Barton Bureau
BOSTON, Mas.. July 11. There
hss been a fair bualness In wool In
the eastern markets during the past
week1, although It has been by no
means equally distributed, some
houses, as has been truo for some
weeks now, getting a fairly good
business, whllo others have had a
very email trade.
Thus, the market keepe fairly
firm, sofar prices are concerned,
although were It not tor the large
supplies of wool which are available
for the manufacturer to draw from,
It la quite likely that value might
strengthen somewhat. While the
manufacturer knows that the atocka
of wool in the markets of tho coun
try are amplo for hla needs he will
naturally enough continue to buy
only aa he actually need the raw
material. Meantime, the dealers, on
the other hand, are not disposed to
lower prices very. much. On a few des
criptions, with hitherto have been
held relatively high, prices havo eaa
ed a little, but except for these par
ticular descriptions, tbo market haa
been firm.
New Tariff of Interest
Of chief Interest to the wool trade
naturally, has been the reporting of
the proposed permanent tariff to tho
house of representatives by the
ways and means committee. Tho
wool achedule, called "schedule 11"
thla time, instead of "schedulo K,"
is a radical departure from any other
tariff ever proposed or enacted. At
flrat glance, the schedulo is very
contusing and evon after analysis, it
Is no means simple. Of course, as
soon as the tariff was announced,
the manufacturers and dealers com
menced to flguro what It would mean
to the trade. It Is, noedlesa to say
too early yet to declaro with any fin
ality Just how it 'will affect the
American manufacturer, upon whose
welfare deepnds, In tbo. laat analysis,
that of tho wool grower and wool
dealer, as well. Unless the manufac
turer can work to advantage under
the terms of the tariff, the wool
grower will find the market more
difficult in proportion and likewise
tho dealer.
Raoed on Scoured Content
One dt the radical departures of
tho wool tariff Is that It Is based on
the scoured content of tho wool. It
had been supposed that tho original
proposition of 26. centa per pound
scoured content would be the bill
reported finally' by the committee
on woola suitable for .clothing pur

poses and so thero waa considerable
surprise when the bill finally waa
