Chicago, H., Jan. 25-Armour's buying of wheat today was the feature of that mar ket. The purchases for the big packer were made through brokers and SurmSes were very near correct as to the principal. Be- fore the close the brokers gave up Armour S name on the transa ctions. The opening was easy as compared with yesterdays closing, the war rumors. on which prices had ad- vanced. proving groundless. but about the expiration of the first hour the tendency became upward. and it took but few min utes for prices to rise cent The addi- tional gain was achieved during the last half hour, with much talk of manipula tion indulged in, but the bulls expressed the be- lief that the improvement was legitimate. May wheat opened at 6S1a@63aic. advanced to 657sc, closing at 653sc 11sa11ac higher than higher than yesterday.
 N Corn advanced very nearly as much as much as the situation in this grain Is gen. orally conceded to be lacking in some of the conditions necessary to render an ad- vance probable.

Cotton Letter.

Cotton Letter
 New York, Jan. 25.-(Special )-The tone of the cotton market this week has been somewhat more hopeful, the feature of the trading being the pronounced weakness of the fall months in comparison with the nearby positions, caused of course, by the general belief that planting operations this spring will be upon a largely increased scale. Liverpool today fully maintained quotations, disappointing the hopes of the bears. Our opening was at an advance of few points, March selling on the call at sos, and advancing to 8.10. But there were heavy offerings at the improvement, and the demand being limited prices fell away The close was quiet with 8.05 for March AS to the course of prices of the spring and summer months there is just now a wide difference of opinion. The bulls talk very confidently of cents and higher for May as soon as spinners begin to feel the pinch resulting from a scarce supply and a specu- lative twist The bears, on the other hand appear serenely satisfied that there is go- ing to be plenty of cotton to fill all require ments, and say that they expect to see May cotton gradually decline below cents Neither side considers it's expectations at all extravagant, and both rely upon the re- ceipts to help in making their predictions good. The January movement has so far proved favorable to the bulls. Their oppo- nents say that the bad weather and bad roads have delayed receipts, but that the cotton is there and will yet come with a rush. Everybody, however, seems agreed that the outlook is for lower prices In the fall, unless the spring season should be exceedingly unpropitious for planting The traders here would like the next crop to be moderate one, so that high prices would rule, but they have slender faith in organ ized movements for the restriction of acre. believe bar farmer, acting for himself, will plant to make as many bales, irrespective of price, as he possibly can.

cal operators turned buyers again, and in a little while, under the influence of these purchases the entire list moved up rapidly; A trader who in the past has been credited with important movements in the indus trials was said to be at work again on the bull side of the account and this led to covering of short contracts all along the line. There was little afloat to affect values although the bank statement in some quar- ters was accepted as an indication of the success Of the new government loan.
