DUNEDIN WOOL SALE.

FIRST OF SEASON. AN ENCOURAGING TONE. SLIGHT ADVANCE ON TIMARU. The first wool sale of the Dunedin series was opened at Burns Hall on Saturday afternoon and was concluded before midnight. The offering consisted of roughly 16,000 bales. Practically the whole of this quantity was sold under the hammer, a fact which affords an indication of the general briskness of the bidding and the M_emiess of the competition. All sections ol the tux tile industry and the trade—British, foreign and Dominion —were represented, unci competition from all quarters was general. , Bradford buyers operated on the largest scale, but the Continental operators wort, strong competitors all through. The largemajority of super pieces went to foreign representatives. The quality of the clip this year is a great improvement upon that ol last selling season. Such an excellent display has not beety seen here at a first sale for many years, 'and no doubt the prices wore favourably affected by the improvement. Compared with northern values, those ruling on Saturday showed an in crease which in some degree can be attri buted to a desire on the part of buyers to have a share of these excellent wools. The general condition of the wool was lighter than was the case last year, and it was better grown and sounder for this sale than it has been in Dunedin for years. This happy state of affairs augurs well for the remainder of the season’s wools which are now coming forward. In some classes of wool prices advanced from Id to 2d on last seasons’, values, but there were also instances of a similar fall ing off in other lines. The general opinion on Saturday was that, compared with the rates at the Timaru sale, prices were firmer to the extent of ffom id to per pound, RANGE OF PRICES.
