THE WOOL SALES.

BEST CLIPS A TRIFLE EASIER. -

INFERIOR WOOLS SHOW A SLIGHT

INCREASE. The second wool sale of the season under the auspices of the Auckland Wool Brokers' Asociation was held at the Wool Exchange Rooms, Queen-street, yesterday, commencing about half-past nine in the morning and concluding at twenty minutes to four in the afternoon. There was a good attendance of buyers present,, including three or four visitors, the followiug being the names of the principal gentlemen competing for the various lots offered:—Messrs. Price, Murgatroyd, Colbeck, Ireland, Campbell, Slater, Hesketh, Sutherland, Waruock, Hellaby, Donald, Parker, McKenzie, and Mclnuis. The only notable absentee was Mr. Common, who purchased extensively at the December sale. The bidding at the commencement of the sale was somewhat: dull, but became more spirited as time wore on, a number of special lots presented resulting in keen competition. On the whole, the wool brought forward was somewhat inferior to that submitted in.December, on account of a large number of the superior clips being included on that occasion. There was a slight falling away in the prices realised for the best clips (the highest price being 81d), this being especially noticeable iu heavy longwools, which showed a decline of a farthing, but the inferior classes seemed a trifle firmer, showing occasional advances equal to about a tarthing, this being particularly noticeable on inferior crossbreds and meriuoß. The highest prices were paid for Lincoln and Leicester wools. The prices realised throughout the sales were, longwools, 6(1 to 8d; orossbreds, GJd to 81d; lambs, 6Jd to 7id; pieces, 4d to 6d. The catalogues of the four auctioneers totalled something like 3000 bales, of which about 2638 were sold, the number passed in and not offered, boing 365 bales. Several private sales subsequently reduced this number substantially. The Loan and Mercantile Company were the .first to sell, Mr. S. Clarke Johnson officiating as auctioneer. The company's catalogue (the largest of the day)," comprised 833 bales of which most were sold under-the hammer, whilst several lots passed in subsequently found purchasers at an advance in prices, leaving very little on hand. The most important clip was that of Mr. J. Taylor, of Cambridge, comprising 87 bales of crossbred wool, the leading lots of which realised $}d, a price subsequently realised for several other lots submitted. At 11 o'clock Mr. Buckland presented the catalogue on behalf of his firm, containing in-all 824 bales, of which 715 were sold, a number of tho lots passed findiug buyers during tho afternoon. Heavy longwools were slightly lower than in their previous sale, but the other lots maintained their values. Messrs. Hunter and Nolan, who were represented by Mr. J. Phiison, presented a catalogue containing 640 bales, all of which were sold with the exception of 27. Mr. T. Rosborough, Te Rori, topped the sale, his clip realising 81d. On the whole the firm consider the wool slightly inferior to that presented at their previous sale, and hardly as well got up, there being no advance in anything, whilst a slight falling away was noticeable in the better class. Mr. Kingswell, who sold on behalf of Messrs. G. W, Biuney and Co., submitted 705 bales, the majority of which were sold at satisfactory prices, and of those passed in several lots were afterwards sold. Tho lot was put through in about 40 minutes, and bidding was sustained throughout. Tho following are the details of tho sales, given in the order in which they took place, all the wool being in the grease
