RABBITSKIN SALE.

Dalgety & Co. Dunedin, report that large quantities were again catalogued at their sale on June 21st. The American demand, which was so keen before last sale, has fallen off almost entirely except at prices considerably below those whichjiave been ruling. The latter have been well above London parity, so, with the cessation of American orders, buyers have had to fall back on London values, with the result that a further decline took place at to-day’s sale. Autumns were again lower by 6d lb, and winter bucks which have been selling at extreme prices and had not previously suffered any decline to-day were lower by approximately yd Winter does, however were keenly sought after, and these if anything were slightly firmer than at last sale. Although prices at the last two sales have now suffered a considerable drop it must be remembered that they had reached a very dangerous level Runners & Suckers to 18d; (Summers 30|d, Light racks 42d, Prime Hacks 44^cl.
