THIRD WOOL SALE

REDUCED PRICK. LARGE NUMBER OF BALES I'ASSKD IN. The third Dnnodin wool sale of tho series opened yesterday morning in tho Early Settlors' Hall at 9 o'clock, when practically the whole of the buyors wero present, who attended the previous salre, or else wero represented by, agents acting on their behalf. Included in this number were buyers from Now Zealand mills, ami also from German, French, and American firms. The following are the nmnliei-s of k-iles offered by tho various agents, together with |.he ouanliiiu" forward at. the corresponding sale last year, tho tablo bo.ing given in tho order of silos:— 1912. 1911. Otago I'arninrs' Co-opera-tive Association (T.td.) ... 955 909 Sironaeh, Morris, and Co. J Lid.) 594 501 Wright. Stephenson, nnd Co. (Ltd.) 3.107 2.031 Donalil Rcid and Co.

I,o,'in and Morcantilo Agency Company (Ltd.)... 1,083 597 Totals 11,188 9,158 As is usual at this series, the wools offered did not include many lots of outstanding quality, the wools forward consisting largely of medium to good crossbreds and halfbreds. Thoro was also a very considerable ipiantitv of merinos on ofl'ci. Tho s:ilo was most erratic, but taking it all round tlio prices realised were quite up to expectations, for a lower raii?u of values was anticipated in sympathy with tho easier feeling in foreign market-. Decrejised values wero also forecasted by reports from tho northern centres, prices tl'ieio showing a dcclino in nearly all classes of wool. Buyors, liowovor. wore out to buy at their limits, for tho demand for all classcs of wool, with tho exception of merinoe, vtas very keen. It is considered that fully 25 per cent- of tho catalogues offered was passed in, sellers sliowing a disinclination to accopt tho reduced values as compared with those ruling at tho last falc. Several lots, however, wore afterwards disposed of privately, at slightly increased values on those bid during tho coursa of tlio sale. Prices as compared with thoso brought at last salo may bo quoted as follows:— Super morinos, ltl lomr; interior to medium, {d lower; super halfbreds, Jd to jiJ lower; good halfbreds, par to id lower; inferior to medium, {d to jd lower; super crossbreds, jd to Jd lower; good crcssbreds, J,d lower; inferior to medium, id to jd lower; pieces, Jd lower. The following is tho rango of prices:— -Medium to good merino, to 9jd; inferior merino, 7d to 7jd; super halfbred, lid to 12d; medium to good, Old to lOJd; inferior, ?jd to 8il; super crossbreds, lOJil to lljd; medium to good, Bjd to 10(1; inferior, 63d to 7'd. At tho January salo tho highest price was 13jd, for nino bales of morino wetlior. When asked his opinion as to what le considered tho reason for the lower trend of values, ono seller said it was very difficult to account for. It wns tho general opinion, however, amongst sellers that tho unocrlainly of tlio lalxiur conditions at lloino must liavo affected tho market, Personally, ho could not advanco any other reason, Messrs Stronoch, Morris and Co.
