New Orleans Cotton Market
New Orleanss September 23.-Cotton fu-
lures opened steady at decline of l to
l3 points Cables were better than ex-
pected but commission houses had many
selling orders from realizing longs to
fill and offerings exceeded the demand
on the first call and Immediately after.
The weather map was favorable as 1t
Indicated fair and dry weather all over
the cotton county, but this as bearish
feature was balanced by private cable
messages from Liverpool which stated
that a meeting of the Lancashire mill
operatives had just adjourned and that
there were strong hopes of arbitration
of the labor troubles among the mills. AS
soon as the selling orders from longs were
filled the market commenced to do better
and at the end of the first half-hour OF
trading prices were to points over
Yesterdays closing.
The advance continued until the more
active months were I to points up. AT
this level scalping longs took profits on
rather large scale and prices eased off
under the selling until at noon they
were down to or within a point of the
lowest levels of the morning again.
Bears were not aggressive on the decline
but seemed disposed to buy for covers
some of the cotton being offered by the
longs. This was apparently due to the
prediction by the weather bureau OF UNI
settled weather in some portions of the
cotton belt tonight and tomorrow. Tole-
grams from Texas stating that the crop
was not turning out as large as expected
| In many counties also had some effect.
| In the afternoon session the market
was quiet and rather easy under offer
ings from both sides. At o'clock prices
were 8 to points under yesterdays final
quotations. The close was steady at
net decline of to 8 points.
