WOOL SALES.

LOW PRICES STILL RULING.

The second wool sale of the season, under the auspices of the Auckland Woolbrokeis Association, was held at the Wool Exchange (Central Mission Hall), Albertyesterday, when both sellers and buyers were well,represented, the latter including Messrs. Price, Murgatroyd {representing Southern firms), War nock Brothers, Parker (Onehunga Woollen Mills), Ireland Brothers, C. Wood, Donald, and Dittos. It was anticipated in some quarters that there would be a slight advance in prices as cornpared with the opening sale, held early in December, but when the catalogues were brought under the notice of buyers, it was soon seen that tho figures all round ruled much the same, though the market presented a somewhat firmer tone, bidding being more keen and prompt, throughout than at the first sale. Inferior cotted and dingy wools showed a slight upward tendency, the sales effected in this class averaging 3|d to 4d per lb, as against 3-Ad to 3|d in December, while coarse wools were much the same, running from 4d to 4£d. Crossbred wool averaged 5d to s£d, showing no change, and the finer wools being barely up to the quality of the clips brought forward earlier in the season, were slightly lower, the to}) price being 7d, as against tire 7£d obtained last month. About 4000 bales were catalogued by the three auctioneering firms interested, and a greater proportion of the wool brought under the hammer was disposed of, than was the case in December. Mr. J. Seagcr Buckland opened proceedings on behalf of Messrs. Alfred Buckland and Sons, and when he vacated the rostrum, the bulk of the wool had found purchasers. The top price realised by the firm was s£d per lb, paid for four bales of crossbred from Kawau, while other dots of cross and half-bred brought s|d, and lambs' wool touched sd. The New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency Company followed with a catalogue, showing 2600 bales, but a portion of this had to be withdrawn without being offered, the wool having been injured at the recent fire in Custom-street East. Mr. H. O. Nolan officiated, and was successful in placing the greater part of the wool offered, two bales of crossbred reaching 6d, while other lots were withdrawn, sellers placing a higher reserve on the clips than the price mentioned. Fine crossbreds and crossbreds went to 5J,d, and merino to s|d. The sale was concluded with Messrs. G. W. Binney and Sons' catalogue, comprising upwards of 850 bales, and Mr. Kings well, who sold for the firm, topped the market with 7d, which price was paid for 25 bales of the H.D.M.I. brand. A similar price was declined for another well-known clip, while among other lots offered 6d was reached for half-bred wool.
