London Wool Sales NZPA—Copyright Rec. 9 p.m. LONDON, Oct. 7. Tire close of the present series of London sales yesterday confirmed the easing prices for dominion wools, says the Finnacial Times. Prices dropped sharply for New Zealand greasy crossbreds, and better style Australian greasy merinos, which previously received good support, were lower.
