MARKET REPORT,
Messrs Edward Thomas and Co., Bond street, Dunedin, wool, skin, hair, and hide, merchants and exporters report : — Rabbitskins. — Despite tho hopeful news recently received from London, the market here on Monday last declined again. This is probably owing to the direct demand from English and American houses falling off, making it not improbable that a reaction will occur in the foreign markets and values here decline. Good mixed winters were sold at from lGd to 16\d ; extra prime does worth up to 18Jd ; mconuiig winters, lid to 12d; autumns, 9d to lid; summers, 4Jd to 7d; small and broken, Id to 4*d.
Sheepskins. — We have a fair demand for best quality present time skins. Horsehair. — Good, clean tail (no mane), 14£ d; good mixed up to l'ld; inferior and medium is worth now about 12d.
Beeswax. — There is little if any in town, with a good demand.
