OIL PRICE TANGLE
STILL UNSOLVED
Mid Continent Chiefs Show
Disposition to Make Light
of Situation.
b the Associated Press.

b the Associated Press.
TULSA, Okla, January 28.-Having
muddled along for nearly month
with an incongruous price situation,
Mid Continent oil operators showed a
disposition today to make light Of the
situation.
Your guess is as good as mine,"
was the inevitable answer around the
oil ofices to the query of what likely
would be the way out Of the quandry
which finds Continental and Barnsdall
paying II cents more for crude oil
than the rest Of the majors.
There was no more indication Of
what the majors eventually would do
than there was December when
Continental announced the advance,
effective January 4.
Production hit a new peak Of $780,
900 barrels daily but there was no no
ticeable slackening in the demand for
crude. The Bureau Of Mines estimate
Of market demand for February of
$685. 800 barrels daily, 10000 barrels
udly ulBIltT IILhIl lIlC 6CGCuIbCI CStl-
mate, was taken as an indication OF
continued good business.
A further weakening in the demand
for motor fuel was expected to result
from the floods in the Ohio and Miss
lssippi valleys. There was no change
in the gasoline prize structure. A
brisk demand for kerosene resulted in
fractional increases in the tank car
price.
In the Mid Continent, drilling work
was held up by bad weather, but
number Of new pools were opened in
Texas.
Oklahoma had an active leasing
campaign in progress In western and
northwestern counties.
The Oil and Gas Journals survey
showed al wells were completed dur
ing the week, II more than the week
before.

boosted its discount rate from to 4

MAJOR MONEY
ACTION DUE
NEXT MONTH
BY ERIC FRIEDHEIM
International News Service

Strong indications that the Gov
ernment will engage in another
large financing operation next
month were seen today in Treas
ury circles.
Possibility that the demand for
funds to aid in flood relief and
rehabilitation may disrupt budget
calculations for the current fiscal
year was conceded by officials.
At the same time, the Treasury
became apprehensive over whether
Federal rvenus would reach expec-
tations.
Relies on Increase
President Roosevelt is relying on
a 9O0-million-dollar increase in in
come tax returns over last year
because of better business condi.
tlons and initial payments under
the new corporate surplus tax law.
A balance of 1886 million dol.
lars must be received if the Presi.
dents estimate is to be attained.
Mr., Roosevelt predicted income
tax payments would total $2,372,
100000. At the close Of January,
revenue from this source
amounted to only STAB, ,165, 900,
leaving $1,524,735, 900 still to be
collected by July /.
Relief Fund Low
BY January, 1886, the Treasury
had realized $590,000, 900 from in.
come levieS. winGing up the fiscal
year with $1,426, 100000 from this
source. This represented income
tax collections of 1926, 900 900 be.
tween January and July.
Relief officials concede that the
new $789 900, 900 deficiency appro-
priation will not meet relief needs
for the next five months. They
anticipate at least 5000, ,000, 900
more will be required because Of
the flood disaster.

CURB MARKET
HIGHER, BUT
IRREGULAR

NEW YORK. Feb. 9 U.N.S0.
Although continuing generally
higher with only scattered irregu.
larity in later trading today,
curb stocks failed to extend open.
ing gains materially.
A few issues, notably machine
tool stocks and mining shares
were strong. Trading was at a
fair price.
While the metals list as a whole
was not making much headway
a few issues advanced sharply.
Evans Wallower Lead preferred
climber 212 points to 341a, and
New Jersey Zinc advanced almost
2 points.
Reed Roller Bit, Chicago Rivet
and Pittsburgh ForgingS stood out
in the miscellaneous shares with
the latter climbing more than ~
points in good demand. Rub
ber shares showed fair gains with
General Tire and Fisk partici-
pating. New Haven Clock netted
more than a point. Fractional
declines in Lakey Foundry and
Jones Laughlin were among the
few losses suffered.
Fractiona1ly higher levels pre-.
vailed throughout the oils with
Creole and Exception at mod.
erately lower levels. Humble ano
Ashland Oil made fair headway.
The power shares were rela.
lively quiet with only a limited
number of issues appearing on
the tape. Prices were irregular
with Arkansas Natural Gas issues
down fractionally on fairly heavy
profit-taking and Eastern Gas,
American Gas and Columbia Gas
preferred also losing ground. Nj

COTTON PRICES
TURN EASIER

NEW YORK, Feb. 9 QN.SO.
After a steady opening, cotton
turned easier in early trading as
pressure on old crop months In
creased following talk OF an al
formation of differentials estab-
Iished on low grades of loan cot
ton by the Commodity Credit
Corporation.
Fairly heavy inquiry for the
distant months came from the
Far East, however, and the list
received good support.
Far Eastern brokers, the traoe'
spot houses and commission
houses led the buyers, while local
traders, Liverpool, the South, and
New Orleans sold. There was a
little hedging in July against loan
cotton coming into markets.
The discounts of about Is points
for the new crop months under the
nearest active option have at
tracted foreign buying in those po-
sitions. Recently the spread was
as much as 80 points, but month
ago it was nearer so, and with
commodity prices still apparently
On an up-trend, foreign consum-
,rs find it advisable to get into
he 1897 crop now. Bullishness IN
these contracts was probably
strengthened by prospects OF a re-
vival of the AAA, and SECRETARY
Wallace's proposal yesterday to
embark on a four-fold program OF
crop control.
Notwithstanding favorable reac-
tionS to the December world con-
sumption report, near months were
weaker, as rumorS circulated in
the Exchange that the differen-
tials discriminating" against low
grade cotton held by the Com.
modify Credit Corporation would
be altered to facilitate movement
of these grades.
