WOOL Firm but riiiiot nt previous quotations. BOSTON. Julv 28. WOOL-Tho Bositon Commercial Bulletin tomorrow will say of the wool market ; Tin wtol market Is less ctlvo than the last two weeks and. If any thing , Htronger than before. The business < lone Is larger than the average , covering o\"ry grade of wool. Wool dealers nre ol- ready under contrnct for nil ithe staple wool they cnu sort out for Home time to come. The sales would bo miioh larger were It not that most dealers tire so busy on cl- llvcrlcs thnt they will not sell more wool except a.t . nn advance. The weakest point of the market Is strictly medium wool. This Is due to th ° fact that English wools nro at the lowest point known. English and Irish wool has 'beeti celling at 7d nnd 7'/4d ' nnd during tin last few weeks heavy purchases have neen niado of Irish and Shropshire wools for itho American market nt a scourM cost laid down of 36c for the Irish and 43o for Shropshire. These wools compete with tint lye quarter nnd three-eighths blood i-uiiiuiiiK" . .an wcois qi nner graae ro fully sustained by European markets , whro the tendency Is to even higher pikes. Sales oftho week are 6,180,000 pounds domestic nnd 437.000 pounds foreign , n total of G7,000 ! poundH. airajnst 10.165,000 pounds last week nnd 2,825,000 pounds for the same week Inst year.

Today's stock market wns strong early nnd traders gen erally ranged themselves on the long side. The shorts took alarm from yest-rdny's lire nnd the continued upward tendency this mornlni ! nnd covered rather extensive lines. London marked up prices before tlio op.nlng here and bought considerable amounts In this market. The sentimental cited of this buying was even mere pro nounced than the direct demand for stocks. The recovery In French rentes In Paris had a stimulating effect nnd part of London's buying of Americans wn reported to be for continental account. Taken all In till , there was sulllclent demand for stocks to run Ine forenoon's business up to within 20,000 shares of yesterday's total transactions and considerably over the total for semi days of this week. Business fell off , however , very notably In the afternoon. The public showed Itself still chary about coming forward and bull operators In consequence proceeded to take ithtlr profits on the advance. The stocks which advanced yesterday nnd the day be fore were especially affected nnd In u num ber of cases were carried below ln t night's level. St , Louis Southwestern stocks , Kan sas & Texas pre.ferred. ljuko Erlo & West ern and the trunk lines were examples. There was nevertheless an appreciable In crease In commission 'house ' business. These were conspicuous In grangers , Burlington leading on account of the bencllt to th-5 crops from rain. The coalers were notably strong on the approaching operation of a 'higher scale of prices nnd Lacknwanna , which in addition enjoyed the bone lit of n reported combina tion with New York , Chicago & St. Louis , rose nn extreme 4 paints. Louisville was the lender of the market , considered as to thj strength and activity. It closed nt the top prlco tit a e gain of 2 % over ester day. Slnco t'he dividend of 2 per corvt was taken off yesterday morning the stock has risen -l i points. There was an active de mand for Sugar all day and th > price went to 161 % . National Steel was strong on the reported acquirement of new property and Brooklyn Transit rose an extreme li. There was n belated upward movement In some of the southwestern stacks not here tofore affected , Denver & Jllo Grande pre ferred. Southern Pacific , St. Louis & San Francisco sscond preferred and the St. Joseph & Grand Island stocks gained from 1 to 0 points. The late realizing carried prices down from the 'best ' and the market closed dull and easy. Tomorrow's bank j statement is expected to show another loss In casli , owing lo opsratlons with the sub- treasury , though there 'has ' ibocn a net gain on the Interior movement. Sterling ex change was weak and lower on account of London buying stocks here and Increased supply of cotnnrirclal bills.

NEW YORK , July 28. COTTON The ex citement In the cotton market centered In the Issue of the largo number of August notices , followed today by extreme apathy and almost -insignificant fluctuations. The market opened steady at unchanged prices to a decline of 2 points and for a tlmo showed no particular leaning ono way or the other. Near midday several small lines of weakly held long stuff came out and sent prices off a point or two , but business failed to materially Improve. For the rest of the session scalpers were Jn control and operated Jn n straggling fashion on both sides of the market. The idea of the lead- era of the market seemed to favor a policy of neutrality pending the appearance of some radically now factor on which to base fresh conclusions' . The cables from , Liver pool were unchanged nnd crop Information , whllo generally favorable , had been dis counted. After a brief spurt of activity during the last few minutes the market closed steady and net unchanged to 2 point * lower.
