CORN ADVANCES :
 TO NEW LEVEL
Buying By Commission Houses Due To Let Up In Move
 ment Responsible

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Corn advanced today to new high price records for the season, although the previous top level was reached only 24 hours before. Per sistent commission house buying based tQ a great extent on the decreasing movement from rural holders appeared to be chiefly responsible. Closing quo- tations were. firm, ssc to hQNc net higher, with May at s2c. Wheat finished %@Kc up, May $1.1oA @1.10H to H10ss, and July. $1.1o% @1.101k. with oats showing Nc to Ec gain, and provi- sions varying from sc decline to rise of 2c.
 Activity characterized the corn mar ket during the entire day, general de- mand being broader as wellsa commis- sion house buying, whereas offerings except to realize profits were of a scat tered character. Rural dissatisfaction with the current prices continued to re- ceive much attention as Q bulfish fac tor, but the breaking up of country roads appeared also to have more or less to do with curtailing receipts. Be- sides, bull leaders were inclined to em- phasize the nearness of the time when farm deliveries usually halt until after planting. Gossip, too, was dwelt upon that feeding of hogs this season has exceeded last years total, both as to number and weight.
 The highest closing level for the crop was witnessed in the corn market. What little corn was booked today to arrive here was promptly taken by shippers. who paid a premium for some of it. This circumstance was a late bullish influence, and so likewise was a report that the farmer holding back movement had reached Minnesota, in addition to states heretofore named.
 Wheat and oats sympathized with corn strength. Wheat was likewise af- fected by bullish estimate of farm re- serves.
 Lower quotations on hogs tended to ease the provision market.

COTTON MARKET
 SHOWS STRENGTH Fresh Buying Reported On
 Reports Of Strong Spot Demand

NEW YORK, Feb. 27-There were recoveries in the cotton market today on covering by recent sellers and some fresh buying on reports of better spot demand in the south and rather more hopeful view of the cotton goods trade outlook. After selling at 2935c at the start, May broke to 29.S3c under liquidation of contracts, which had been held over yesterdays decline; but later advanced to 29.70c and closed at 29.66c. The general market closed very steady at net advances of 57 to 67 points on the oid-crop positions, and of 27 to 40 points on the new.
 The opening was firm at an advance of IA to 33 points in response to rela- lively steady Liverpool cables and private reports that the threatened lockout of Lancashire operatives were unlikely to occur. This opening ad- vance was checked by overnight sell ing orders, and the market eased off right after the call under renewed liquidation. A few stop orders were uncovered just below 200 for May, which sent prices off to 2S.50c for March and 2S.15c for July, or IT to 21 points net lower on old-crop positions. After their execution, offerings were com paratively light, and the market firmed up during the middle of the day on more favorable southern spot advices and talk of an increased inquiry for cotton goods. TheEe was buying by trade interests as we'll as covering by shorts on the advance, which carried the price of March up to 29. 9.2Sc and July to 29c in the late trading, or 5S to 70 points net higher on present crop posi- tions. New-crop months were relative ly quiet, and there was some selling of October against purchases of July; but, after declining to 25.80c during the early trading, October rallied to 26.25c, and there was some buying of both October and December on the unfavor- able weekly report of the weather bu- reau. Private advices received here said that Japanese interests had been buyers in the Atlantics late yesterday and were in the market today for a considerable block. Reports of an in creased spot demand were also received from New Orleans. Additional March notices. estimated at about 10000 bales, were reported this morning, but seemed without any particular effect on the market. Exports were 1O,725 bales. making 4,2ss,ssO so far this season Port receipts today, s,6s1. United States port stocks, 805,177.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON FUTURES
 NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 27-The cot ton market displayed a more cheerful aspect today than for some time, al- though there continued to be periods Of selling on bulges which at one time caused leading old crop months to trade II to 15 points below yesterdays close. The general trend was upward, however. and at the highest around the close, active old crop months reached level 63 to 7s points net higher, com pared with the previous day, with May at 2S.oOc and July at 28.66c. The net gain for the day was 59 to 75 points on old crop months and 26 to 3S on new crop positions.
 The market opened at a moderate gain and with generally more cheer iui tone, and prices were advanced 20 10 Sz points above the previous close on better cables than due, an impress sion that the threatened Lancashire lockout would not materialize and on the bad weather shown by the map. The weekly weather report was also constructive, as it showed that farm work mad been greatly hampered by bad weather. South Texas also re- ported all cotton already up had been' Killed by the freeze. Northern dry goods reports were also better,
 The market eased off during the mid dle or the season on the renewed sell Ing encouraged by the bulge said to be passed on renewed fears of labor trou- pie In Lancashire. A forecast for more favorable weather in the belt helped the reaction which carried values 43 to 47 points down from the early high to what proved to be the low of the day.
 The market turned decidedly firmer during the afternoon, and although there were temporary setbacks. prices generally rallied well and all months made new highs in the final trading. the close being at practically the high point of the day. The final rally was que to reported better demand for spots. rather active covering by speculative shorts and a general feeling fhat ths market has seen the worst and Is in shape for good recovery.
