PRICES ON UPGRADE
 AT CLOSE OF WEEK
Recovery Based On Belief Re.
 cent Reaction Overdone

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-stock and bond prices were headed upward as the week closed after having displayed a reactionary tone in the early part of the week. The recovery was reported to have been based on the speculative belief that the recent reaction had been overdone and on fresh buying inspired by favorable trade and business news.
 Time money rates were somewhat firmer, the market being on AZ. to 5 per cent basis, but call funds were plentiful, the exchange rate dropping 10 per cent and outside loans" be- ing quoted as low as 32t
 Extreme weakness of the foreign ex- changes, which sent French and Bel gian francs to the lowest prices in all time, was followed by a brisk recovery on the settlement of the British dock workers strike and the French Cham Der of Deputies decision to adopt the Poincare tax program. Argentine pesos touched new top for the year.

LESS ACTIVITY IN
 COTTON MARKET
Opening Is Steady, But Nervous ness Develops And Close Is
 Barely Steady

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-The cotton market was less active today, but showed continued nervousness, and, after selling at 30.55c at the opening, May contracts broke to 30.05c In the late trading. or 40 points net lower. market closing, barely steady, net 1G points higher to 35 points lower.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of seven points to a decline of two points. There may have been a little selling on reports that Lan- cashire spinners had adopted the or ganized short-time proposal and would reduce their working time from 4s to 26A hours per, week for the next three months. The sentimental effect of this, however, was offset to some extent by the relatively firm showing of the Liv- erpool cables, and the active months sold about 2 to IA points net higher during the early trading. The demand seemed to taper off around 30.f5c for March and 29.77c for July, however, and prices turned easier later in the morning under liquidation and mod crate selling for southern and local account. March declined to 29.70c and July to 2936c, or 25 to 40 points net lower; but the close was several points up from the lowest. particularly on the later deliveries. as a result of covering. New-crop months were relatively steady during the entire day, and, after sell ing off from 26.60c to 26.20c, October closed at 2S52c. Much of the business was attributed to switching between March and later deliveries in prepara- ton for possible notices next Tuesday
 The March discount under May mar rowed from 40 points at the close of Thursday to g points at the close to- day. The gossip was that large ten ders were likely Tuesday, but that they would probably be stopped by the trade on any widening of the differences be- tween the March and May positions. Private cables attributed the steadiness of Liverpool to continental buying and trade calling in a quiet market. Ac- cordlng to advices received from Wash ington, the looked-for statement re- garding the available supply figures of the census bureau was expected either late today or Monday. The amount of cotton on shipboard awaiting clearance at the end of the week was estimated at 75,000, against 116,000 last year. Part of the early buying was attributed to reports of rather a better demand for cotton goods.

WHEAT ASCENDS
 TO WEEKS TOP
Less Selling Pressure Met With Than Usual In Recent Advances

CHICAGO, Feb. 2s-Heiped upward by higher quotations at Liverpool, the wheat market here ascended today to the topmost prices of the week, and met with less selling pressure than has been usual on advances of late. There was firm close at Mc to &c net gain, with May. S1.1101.11h and July, $!ll%. Corn finished unchanged to Sc higher, visions unchanged to rise of Dc.
 In connection with the price advance in Europe, traders here showed inter est regarding surmises that the work of the Dswes commission might permit Germany to become large purchaser of bread grain on this side of the At lantic. Possibilities that domestic win ter wheat has met with damage throughout important areas were also given attention. complaints from dis tricts east of the Mississippi being rather numerous. Furthermore, bulls continued to dwell on prospects that the import duty on wheat would be raised, that the 1924 crop would be materially less than was the case last mate of reserves of wheat on farms would be small. There were predic- tions, too, that the United States visible supply total on Monday would show .A moderate decrease.
 With many traders looking for a falling-off In the volume of corn ar rivals next week and thereafter, bulls had the advantage in the corn market, and in oats as we'll. Messages from Iowa said the movement of corn in that state appeared to be largely at an end, and receivers here were generally of the opinion that everywhere the peak had been passed. Some improve ment in shipping demand was noted, and there was also more or less corn bought by seaboard exporters.
 Provisions were responsive to an up- turn in hog values.

 NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 2S.-After a ket today eased off 8 to Is points, mainly on cables from Liverpool report ing that Lancashire mills working American cotton had virtually gone on half time. Prices then rallied to a level of 30.14c for May and 29.34c for July. which was the high of the day, the incentive being a buiiish correction of stocks in Barcelona, Spain, helped by indications Of unsettled and rainy weather for over the weekend

This started lair rally whicn was helped bv tha map showing considerable rain in the pest and the forecast pointing to un- settled weather with more rain and warmer weather for over the weekend.
