Cotton.

Further advance ir the cotton mar
ket during yesterdays early trading
was based on hopes Of increasing
efforts. Business was less active than
recently, and new high records were
confined to January and March de-
liveries. January sold at 28.03. or i
points above Tuesdays closing figures
and closed at 27.s7. with the general
list showing net declines Of l to o
points.
According to Liverpool advices, the
British government has allotted 10000
tons Of shipping to the cotton trade
for use during December. The allot-
ment for November was $4,000 tons,
and this comparison on its face would
suggest increased exports next month.
The relatively easy showing OF the
Iiverpool market was attributed TO the
moro ontimistic view OF shipping con
di-ions. which was also promoted by

sbinvards. It was calculated by people

Coffee Futures market was
more active yesterday, with the price
movement rather irregular, although 1t
seemed that the lower level was at
tracing better demand and that a
somewhat steadier tone had developed.
European buying orders were reported
around the ring, believed to be for
French account, which attracted con
siderable interest, while there was COW
ering By recent local sellers and per
hans little trade buying. The market
opened points higher 70 2 points low
or and sold about 3 70 6 points net
higher during the morning. Offerings
increased slightly at this level and re
actions followed, with the close net l
point lower TO 3 points higher.

Wheat.-For one reason or another
the movement Of wheat at Western
points is falling of and receipts yes
terday were little more than half Of
last years movement. 1t is said, how
ever. trat wheat is moving 70 the mills

streets visible showed an increase east
Of the Rockies Of 2,06l 900 bushels,
while west Of the Rockies there was
an increase Of $4,000 bushels. The
acreage of fall-sown wheat in Canada
was said 20 be per cent smaller than
last year.
Corn.-Thc market was apparently
ovcrsoid on Monday and prices ycstcr-
day rallied sharply on covering, clos

kct was a narrow affair. Cash corn n
the country made a sharp advance in

Disagreed Over Prices

Two prices for the ships were und
consideration. One was for the ships
already built and those 20 be built. The
negotiators could not agree upon the
price for either kind of ships. The
United States demanded new tottoms
but Japan maintained that she could
not supply these without designating
her trade. The price offered by the
United States was far below ne pre-
vailing prices for tonnage in Japan.
The United States also desired de-
liveries az dates far in advance of the
time in which Japan felt that she
could deliver them, and so declined
70 comply with this demand
Japan maintained that the price
which the United States would require
for steel would directly affect the
price Of new ships which the United
States government might contract for
through the Japanese government with
the Japanese yards.
One of the difficulties on the Ameri-
can side OF the negotiations was not
only the amount Of steel which Japan
was TO obtain, but also the sources
from which this steel was to come
Japan had outstanding contracts for
American steel on which the embargo
was put, and it was intimated that the
United States desired to limit the
amount of steel which Japan might
export 10 the amount contracted for,
while Japan desired not only the exc
cution of all outstanding contracts,
hut also additional steel
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-11-21
Wanted Standardized Steel

Another point emphasized by Japan
was the desirability Of standardizing
the steel to be obtained, so that the
construction Of new tonnage might
not only be facilitated, but also that
prices for new ships might be fixed
in advance of their completion.
The japanese negotiators are under
stood 10 have taken the position that
in the proposed transaction Japan does
not desire 70 obtain undue profits. and
entered the discussions in a spirit Of
assisting the United States TO solve
its ocean transportation problem and
as an indication Of Japan's wish 10
cooperate with America in the war.
