London. Dec. 20-The continued adj

their Arab allies have withdrawn to the

IN BOSTON MARKETS
Butter Prices Rising Again, Egg Market
Firmer, but Prices No Higher.

Boston, Dec. 20.-The price of butter
Is ON the rise once more in the local
market, as a result of a strongly upward
tendency in other markets. In New
York the market has advanced &c from
wher it left off last week, while in Chi
cago an advance Of cent is noted
These advances mean that the local
dealers win have to pay more for sup
plies and encourage the asking Of more
money for the goods on hand. For fancy
northern creamery in tubs 36isc is quite
generally asked and had these prices
represent an advance OF about 1sc on a
pound over recent quotations
The egg market also is frmer, though
not quotably higher, as receipts are not
as large as expected and the demand is
rather brisk. resulting in a closely sold
up market The movement of cheese has
often been liYelier, but the lack of activ-
ity Is not an element of weakness, owing
to small stocks and high replacing costs
in other markets.
