PACKING OF WOOL AND ALLEGED CLASHING OF SALES.
faT TELEGBAPH—I-EESS ASSOCIATION 1 CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. A reporter called on a prominent woolbroker this morning with reference to the report from Auckland that wool was badly packed, and that sales in that city and Christchuwh clashed. The broker said that bad packing of wool did not apply to Canterbury, where wool was always well got up, buyers being satisfied with the packing. It might have been bad twenty years ago, but growers were educated nowadays. Clashing of sales could hardly be avoided. In New Zealand there were many small sales, and buyers had to arrange sales so that they would fit in with each other in the best manner possible. None of-the sales in the North Island clashed, neither did those in the South; the clashing was only between the'far North and the South. The buyers were busy men, and were rushing at top speed all the time. They arranged the sales and informed the brokers, who approved of the dates. If there vras any clafh, it was almost certainly unavoidable.
