STOCK MARKET TONE ACTIVE Vigorous Advances Made After Opening Declines. NEW YORK. Jan. 13—The trading element on the floor acted on the assumption that the. decreased borrowing demand that was-%noted in the stock loan market last night meant that the tipward movement was over and these traders sold stocks at the opening of the stock market today, causing declines of from fractions to 1 point. It was not long, however, before it became evident that the buying power was of unexpectedly large pro po' tions all the offerings being easily absorbed, and by the end of the first fifteen minutes vigorous advances were In order. Mexican Petroleum was most prominent and after yielding 1% points to 163% was bought in large blocks after the movement and had a quick advance to 167. The steel stocks acted in the same manner, opening losses being followed by gains. Republic Steel, after yielding 1% points to 70%, rose to 71%. Baldwin Locomotive was offered down V, of a point to 91% aud then rose to 92%. Steel common sold off % of a point to 82%, but rallied from that level. Caddo Oil developed activity, advancing 2 points to 171%. Crucible Steel yielded 2 points to 99 and then rose to above 100. The copper stocks did not share in the improvement and were generally in supply at concessions. Railroad stocks were quiet. The market displayed pronounced strength in many issues during the late forenoon, although prices moved in an irregular manner. Most interest was attached to the trade in Republic Steel, which rose 3 points to 73. Lnckawanun Steel responded to the ? lacing of a large rail order by the New ork Central, with an advance of over 1 point to 57%. There was steady accumulation also of Baldwin, which after its reaction to 91 Vi, advances to 924sSteel common rose from 82% to 83%. Southern Railway became prominent, advancing % of a point to 24%. Reading rose over 1 point to above 85. Mexican Petroleum was actively traded in and after selling up to 167%, reacted to 105%. Pan-American Petroleum was in supply, yielding from 78% to 75%. Trans-Continenta! Oil on announcement of new financing, fell 1% points to 10%. Studebnker yielded 1% point to 52%, and General Asphalt dropped 1% point to 57%. (By Thomson & McKinnon. —Jan. 13 — Yesterday's market was at times very confusing. There wns some selling of long stocks during the early part of the session and fair reactions were established in many leading issues. But renewed buying appeared in sufficient volume by some of the local professionals and the market thereafter gave a very good account of itself. There was a renewed demand for railroad shares, buying being credited both to public as well as professional accounts. Considering the extent of the recovery and the reduction of the short in terests there can be little doubt but that the market is in a much weaker technical position. Nevertheless, there are certain factors which tend to counterbalance this and aid in the advance of the market. The one is the undoubted charge that Is taking place in the business, not yet important, but the tendency is unmis- | takable. The other is the ease in money condl- ' tions and a reduction of the rediscount rate in the near future is not at all impossible. It is thought that there will ultimately be a further recovery in values, but that It will Ue well to proceed with a little more caution than wul evidenced the past Ywo weeks.

In the Cotton Market
NEW YORK, Jon. 13.—The cotton market was active and firm at the opening today, with Initial prices up 20 to 40 points, January reaching IStt In the face of heavy profit taking by Wail street, the list was well sustained after the start by trade buying and further covering of shorts, partly due to strong cables and better advices from Manchester. ♦ Private messages from Liverpool reported a good export demand for low grades. At the end of the first twenty minutes dealings were still active, with late deliveries about 35 poiuts above the previous close. < LIVERPOOL, Jnn. 18.—Spot cotton opened at good dernund at the openlnf of the market today, with prices steady nnd sales at close to 10,000 bales.

Good light bogs were generally steady, but there was a considerable number or that grade that brought $10.25, which i* 25 cents higher than the top of the Wednesday market. Mixed and medium hogs were steady, but heavies were fully 25 cents higher, with no sales at less than $9.20, and a considerable number at $9.50. There was but little demand for pigs nnd that market was generally fully 2.> cents lower at around $9. while roughs were fullv 25 cents higher at $7.75®8.25, with the bulk of the sales at around SB. Receipts for the day approximated 17.000 hogs, including approximately 1.000 left over from Wednesday. Indications were that there would tie a fairly large holdover for the Friday market. The cattle market was fairly active, and waR anticipated higher, but prices held bnrely steady to steady, with some of the buyers bidding lower nnd largo receipts at close to 1.700. Steers nnd bulls were steady, but some of the poorer grades of butcher stuff was n shade lower. There were but few good cattle among the receipts, and if the receipts are kept as high for the next few days as they have been the past few days it is no more than reasonable to deduct that there will be a falling off in prices. With close to 600 calves on the mar ket. prices were fairly steady, but there were less choice calves sold st sls than there were on the Wednesday mnrket. However, there was a top of $15.60 on that grade, which was the same as the top of the Wednesday market. The bulk of the good calves sold at sl3® 14. nnd of the mediums, slo® lk. With less than 300 sheep and lambs on the market, prices held steady to 25c lower, with sheep at sl®3, and iambs ss®9. with a large number of sales of lambs at $8.75. HOGS.

GRAIN PRICES SLIGHTLY OFF Declines in Foreign Exchange Effects Market. CHICAGO, Jan. 13.—Grain prices dropped slightly in trading on the Chicago Board of Trade today due to lack - ; of buying power nnd considerable selling I pressure. Declines in foreign exchange also affected the mnrket. Trade was not large. Provisions were also lower. March wheat opened at $1.82%, unchn ged nnd subsequently dropped l%c. May wheat, after opening up %c at $1.73%, lost I%<\ May corn opened unchanged at 75%c, gaining %e later. July corn, off %c at 76c, dropped nn additional %e before the close. May oats opened up %e nt 49c, dropping %c before the close. July oats was t.p %c at the opening at 48%c and lost %c additional later. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Jan. 13Wheat—Fair Euroncan buying of wheat and a brisk nemana fur rye. together with a broadening of the field of purchases by spring wheat millers characterized today's market. It is notable that the advance has been brought about un der a rather moderate demand for the deferred deliveries, there being at no time any important selling, nor anything In the way of hedging sales. Estimates of Argentine surplus are numerous, but offerings of the actual wheat are scarce. Ocean freight rates from Atlantic ports are weak nnd declining, which fact, in itself, will help maintain the demand from foreign sources. The appearance of Minneapolis millers In the bard wheat territory if continued may have a radical effect on values for the reason that the foreign demand has largely cleaned up the ntnouut available. The mnrket may have moderate recessions, from time to time, under minor influences, but so long as North America is called upon to supply European needs, the trend of prices should be upward. Corn—Never, at any time, hus there been sufficient exportation of corn to be a real factor in fixing the commercial price, but at the present moment there Is sufficient demand from abroad together with the demand for foods to affect the market, at least to the extent that weakness does not appear, lu case previous sellers are further Influenced by the foreign demand, It will probably make a favorable spot in the market for new selling for the reason that the offerings from the country show inclination to Increase as prices advance. Oats—The only element of strength In oats is gathered from the action of the superior grains. There is no foreign^demand and a slow domestic demand. Cash interests are seen on the selling side ot the market. Provisions —There Is a rather brisk shipping demand for hogs in addition to which the larger packers are filling their cellars with products as rapidly as possible. Products arc probably dragging around an investment level. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —Jan. 13WIIEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.
