TURN OF TIDE IN
 COTTON MARKET Prices React and a Better Tone
 Is Developed
RAINS RETARD NEW CROP
Reports of Better Export Demand Cause More Active Interest In Market and Prices Close
 is To 17 Points Higher.

New York, April 15.-The cotton market recovered several points of it's recent loss during today's trading. with the close steady at a net advance of to 13 points. Sales were estimated at 250,00O bales.
 The market opened firm at an ad vance of to 13 points in response to better cables than expected and talk of too much rain in the south west. Right after the opening there seemed to be some more long cotton pressing for sale and during the early session prices eased off in consequence, with near months selling back to about the closing prices of last night while the new crop ruled relatively steady and about to 4 points net higher. But liquidation was not so heavy as the previous day and as soon as it had run it's course the market frmed up on reports of flood stages along the lower Mississippi, overf1ows in Texas, threat ening overhows in Arkansas and private advices reporting that rains were delaying crop preparations in the western belt. The covering was &C., celerated by private wires from the south claiming a better export de- mand for spot cotton, and in the late trading May sold at cents and Octo- Der at sos cents or IS to r points net higher. The close was off from the best under realizing by early buy CTS. A good part of the business was probably in the way of evening up in preparation for the Easter holidays as the market will be closed from Thurs day night until Monday morning.
 Receipts at the ports today II 1928 bales, against 20,55S last week and 20,- 344 last year. For the week, 90,000 bales, against 99.S99 last week, and 1895 last year.
