There was an ad vance of approximately a cent a pound in the market for coffee futures here Friday.

Reports of a very spot situation served to stimu late the advance, which carried July up to $22.00, and December to $21.35, or about 85 to 105 points above Thursday night's closing figures on the active months. Reactions of several points fol lowed under realizing, with the market closing 65 to 70 points net higher.
