WOOL SALES
IN NEW SOUTH WALES KEEN RUSSIAN COMPETITION. CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES. [By Cable — Press Assn. — Copyright.) (Received 23, 8.25 a.m.) Sydney, Feb. 23. One of the factors contributing towards the keen competition and high prices at the wool sales, especially for the freer type of locks, is the Russian demand. Buyers from elsewhere are compelled to stretch their limits to the utmost to secure this class from the Russian buyers. The Russian activity, however, has not been confined to locks, of late finer quality wools also having benefited considerably from their activity. The advent of the Russians as direct buyers has certainly been an appreciable factor in keeping rates at their present buoyant level.
