FURTHER ADVANCE IN OIL.
Purchasing Agencies Announce In
creases in Crude Prices Today.

PITTSBURGH, January ga further
advance in the price of crude oil was

agencies here today, 10 cents being
added to the more important grades as
follows: Pennsylvania crude, s2.35;
cabell. $1.SS; Mercer black. Newcastle
and Corning. $1.s5: Somerset, $L.73.
Five cents was added to the price of
cents.
Successive advances over period of

Higher prices on hogs tended to
harden the provision market. Selling
by packers, however, acted as some
thing ofran Offset.
Finally all the gains were more than
wiped out The late weakness in the
wheat market had a depressing effect.
Gossip that exporters were taking
back wheat from foreigners and were
selling futures led subsequently to
sharp setback in wheat prices. The close
was heavy. Is to rs net lower, with May,
1851 and July 1.26a4.
Rumors were current that a foreign
government had made big purchase OF

influence. The close was easy at 7sa1

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK.

NEW YORK, January 2S-The cotton
market was active and unsettled early
today. Liverpool more than met yes
terday's local decline. and prices here
opened to 10 points lower. with all
the active months selling into new
low ground for the movement. There
was further trade buying at this de-
cline. as well as considerable cover
ing by shorts or buying for reaction.
and prices steadied up to within 3 or 4
points of last nights closing figures
right after the call, with May advance
ing from 1902 to 1910 and October
from 12.15 to 1222. but the tone was
very nervous. owing partly to conflict
ing views of the spot situation.
A private cable attributed the decline
in Liverpool to liquidation, straddle
selling and poor spot demand Houses
with Liverpool connections both bought
and sold in the local market.
Futures opened steady. March, 1882
May. 1902; July. 12.17; October, 1911;
1870.
Buying tapered off after the close Of
Liverpool. and fluctuations late in the
were somewhat irregular, but
setbacks og 6 and points were followed
by renewed steadiness around midday,
with May contracts selling up to 1913, or
about a point above yesterdays closing
quotations.
Offerings were light, and reports that
southern spot holders were not following
the decline in futures seemed to encourage
sentiment around the ring.

Weakness at Start Followed by Sub

ports Favor Bull Traders,

CHICAGO. January 2s.-Active buying
OF commission houses and pit traders
sent wheat up today despite weakness
at the start. Announcement that the
entire mercantile marine of Great
Britain had been taken under govern
ment control, in order to keep down
ocean freight rates. seemed first to in
dictate enlarged shipments from Argen-
tina and Australia. but later the view
prevailed that the outlook promised in
creased demand for exports from the
