WILLIAMS AND KETTI REPORT. Williams and Kettle, Ltd., re under on Alonday’s wool t Napier:—We held the third the season yesterday when ihi ing of the combined woolbrok proximated 29,673 bales. Of tli our offering comprised 7""£ Little or no wool was of a nature, the bulk of the oat.iloi ing made up of late shorn, cm country clips. However, ther some very nice deep-grown li offer. There was the usual good anee of buyers, hut buying va or less restricted, as in tin p sale, the major portion of th petition coming from the ( ot closely followed by Bradford, rica and Japan appeared to hi out of the market, and Genual only mildly interested. Locali mills were not so active al they evinced an increased into lambs’ wool. There was one point in the I that rather upset calculation! that was the competition beta few buyers for deep 46/48 ’a < wools, for which their limits a cd to be very elastic, and som surprising prices were realised. As far as our catalogue it cerncd, it appears to us tha 1 wools are a shade dearer on H 1 toil, and average and inferior are from id to id cheaper. - deep wools are undoubtedly d Lambs’ wool and Soutlniow cheaper, and pieces and belhf about par. We sold a fraction over 87 pc under the hammer.
