WHEAT AVERAGES LOWER IN PRICE

CHICAGO, Nov 24.-Whest aver aged lower in price today largely as result of Washington reports that the administration was opposing new schemes of government aid to finance American exports to Ger many. The market closed unsettled at a range varying from Ss net de- cline to 1s to A advance, with De- cember s1.03@1.031s and May s1.0S 34 @1.0S3s. Corn finished unchanged to 3-4 lower, oats unchanged to 1-4 high CT, and provisions unchanged to rise of 15 cents.
 Lower quotations at Liverpool, as well as selling here by house with foreign connections were bearlsh factors in wheat and emphasized the initial downward tendency which prices were given by the news from Washington. As the day progressed offerings of December and May were more readily absorbed, and major ity of dealers appeared to be less disposed to operate on the selling side in those months, notwithstand- ing that the domestic visible supply total Monday promised to be double the figures of a year ago. Selling of Juiysa however, continued free, ana that month finished at the days bot tom level
 Primary receipts of wheat today included 100000 bushels or duty-palo Canadian wheat at Toledo but the weeks total arrivals at United States primary centers were to material extent less than for the previous week or for the corresponding time last year On the other hand, no domestic wheat whatever cleared from United States ports yesterday, whereas a year back the amount for the day was 1,153,000 bushels. Do mestic milling demand was reported today as of a hand mouth charac- ter.
 With receipts of corn here reaching good volume, liquidating sales of De- cember delivery were heavy in the corn market, but May and July held about steady. Oats were scarce ana the market grew firm.
 Provisions tended upward with hogs.

Pig Iron Sales Jump
 But Steel Is Quiet

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-The demand for copper has remained light dur ing the past week and sellers have made further concessions with quota tions for electrolytic now ranging from 12 7-s to 13 Is for spot or near by delivery. although producers are asking from 13 to 13 1-4 for forward shipments. Iron was firm.
 The volume of new buying in steel was again disappointing. with pur- chases mostly limited~to small lots for immediate delivery. While buy CTS appeared to anticipate reduced prices. the list was well maintained except for little shading here and there, as producers consider the pros poets for new business very favor able and expect broader buying movement in the first quarter of the new year. In pig iron, sales were the largest in several months. as prices appear to have declined to a level where buyers could operate with con- fidence.
 Copper ruled easier, with demand slow. Buyers for domestic consump- tion have either covered their inn mediate needs or withdrawn with the falling off in export demand which was due to the violent fluctuations in exchange. Rumors that small lots were offering at shade under the 13 cent leVel lacked confirmation and some of the larger producers were still holding for IS Is to 13 1-4 cents on the idea that the supply available at the lower prices was compara- lively limited.
 Tin advanced quite sharply on the London improvement but the upturn was checked by profit taking sales,
 Lead was firm owing to a large movement into consumption and a at
 Zinc showed steadiness with fair consuming demand from sheet mills and rather less pressure to sell
 Antimony was quiet and steady. Only moderate supply is available for the balance of the year.

Irregular Declines
 In Butter Marekts

CHICAGO. Nov 24.-An irregular decline in values featured the weak and unsettled butter market during the wee.,. Boston alone maintained a steady price level and Chicago, aft CT mid-week advance, declined to former prIces
 An increase in visible supplies ana a decrease in consumptive demand were considered responsible.
 A tendency on the part. of the pub lc to lse less butter at the higher level of prices is reflected in the quiet condition of the wholesale market. distributors report.
 Imports, which were heavier, eX- erted an influence on the visible supply. Arrivals at New York ln- cluded 250 casks of Holland, 6l2 boxes of Irish, 1,131 casks of Si- berian, 5.567 casks of Danish and SOu boxes of Irish. 1,131 casks of Si- in addition 312,S67 pounds of Ca nadian direct from Canada.
 Closing wholesale prices and range, 92 score butter at the prin- cipal markets follow: Chicago un- changed at 51 E; New York, l la less at 52; Boston, unchanged at 51l2 Philadelphia. 1 less at 53.

Dry Goods Markets Quiet During Week

NEW YORK, Nov. 24,-Trading in primary cotton goods markets has been generally light although the rise in cotton has been very sharp. The slow response of cloth markets to the cotto advance is puzzling mer- chants and is leading to further talk of curtailment of production in mill centers. Prices have held generally firm. There have been some conces- sions obtainable on goods for delivery from stocks, but on contracts mills ask full prices or decline business of- fered at old figures.
 There has been some improvement in the sales of colored and brown cot tons for export to the smaller mar kets. Flannels and blankets are in better and steadier demand than other lines.
 Percales and gingham are being bought in small quantities. Wash fabrics of a novelty character are selling for advance shipment in fair quantities some houses doing well on specialties and most sellers find ing it difficult to secure business in volume on staples
 There has been a great deal or business placed below the cost of re- placement and trade channels, both iobbing and retail are still well filled with merchandise obtained below the high costs now prevailing. Winter weight Knit S0ouS are SeitlhS Wei in the jobbing trade, but the spring business has quieted down since ad- vances were asked for further de- liveries. Towels, bed spreads, da- masks and other miscellaneous cloths move slowly when prices ar ad- vanced. Yarns have hen advanced sharply by ,he mills yet business is being done below asking prices in mill channels.
 Prices current for cloths in pri- mary markets are as fell S:

Stock Prices Rise As Cotton Jumps Up


 NEW YORK. Nov. 24.--A further rise in stock prices, establishment of the highest quotations on cotton fu- lures in three and one-half years, declaration of a number of increased or extra dividends and a sharp break in sterling and other foreign eX- changes followed by brisk recovery were the features of this weeks financial markets.
 Operators on the long side of the stock market found little difficulty in bringing forward new leaders when the old favorites showed signs of halting on profit taking and a re- newal of bear selling, Despite the steady increase in stock prices since October 1, brokers loans are report ed to have held relatively steady around Sl,300, ,000 900.
 Money rates continued easy, the flow of funds back to New York. as reflected in the weekly banks state ment, giving pomise of a continuance of that condition.

Wheat Advances On European Agreement

CHICAGO, Nov 24-Renewal Of accord between Great Britain and France as to Germany has furnished basis for higher prices this week in the wheat market. and so, too, has strength of securities in Wall street. Compared to a week ago, wheat this morning showed s~9sc to l ss 41 1sc gain, corn at 7s01c decline to A ad- vance, oats varying from 1sc off to 7s c 1c up. and provisions unchanged to 25c lower.
 Free selling and lack of support wiped out some of the enhancement of wheat values. Disturbed condi- tions in Germany led again to more or less unsettlinG Of confidence on the part of many holders of wheat. and so likewise did predictions that the United States visible supply total on Monday next might exceed 75,- 0G0,000 bushels.
 Fine weather and increasing ar rivals of corn pulled down prices for nearby deliveries of that cereal. Meanwhile, receipts of oats were scanty and the market advanced.
 Packers selling acted as something of a weight on provisions.
