The past week in the veneer market has heen
marked by the receipt of a considerable number
of large orders pretty evenly divided up among
the various dealers. The piano trade paid par-
ticular attention to the well figured wood, and,
as a whole, the prices received were satisfactory
to the dealers. Several new importations of logs
have been received at the various yards, and
more is reported in transit. Most of (he new
wood coming in is reported as of very good
quality, and judging from the exterior, promises
a good figure. The demand by the out-of-town
trade continues good, and New York manufactur-
ers continue to buy freely when they see any-
thing like a bargain.

BONNEAU'S CHOICE LINE.
J. J. Bonneau Co. have added several hand-
somely figured mahogany logs to their large stock
in their warerooms at foot of Bast Seventh street,
New York, during the past week, but say that
from the present conditions of the trade, with
the great demand from all quarters it is almost
impossible to keep a full stock on hand. They
have been favored with some very large orders
from the piano trade of late, including several
from the West.

Garrett Gordon has just secured another large
consignment of black walnut butts, which he had
cut, and is now displaying at his warerooms at
116-118 Avenue D, New York. At this time,
when good walnut is considered a rare wood, Mr.
Gordon was very fortunate in securing such a
fine stock. The Mexican mahogany logs recently
opened by him have been proving attractive to
the piano trade.
COLE'S CHOICE COLLECTION.
The warerooms of I. I. Cole & Son, at foot of
East Eighth street, have contained in them at

present one of the choicest collections of rare
to any Piano, Old or New
hardwood veneers that has been seen in this city
for a long time. To give the details of all of the
flitches shown would be almost impossible. In
African and San Domingo mahogany the collec-
tion is particularly choice, showing many logs
of extremely rare and unique figures. One of
the striking features of this exhibit is the uni-
form soundness of the logs shown, as well as
their extraordinary size. Several logs of rose-
wood and a quantity of extremely fine walnut
have attracted considerable attention from the
piano trade. Manufacturers of piano cases will
<=> s
see some very fine illustrations of these veneers

The fine display of choicely figured mahogany
veneers at the yards of William Booth & Bro., at

on account of the remarkable figures that they
show and on account of their freedom from
blemishes. They are finding an extremely strong
demand for veneering of all kinds, and are book-
ing some big orders from the piano trade for fu-
ture deliveries.
