 New Orleans Cotton Market
 New Orleans, September A.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at a decline of to points on unfavorable cables, English futures being lower than expected by ? to points. This hastened weekend sell ing out by longs on the first call, but the pressure to sell did not last long and soon after the call a partial recovery was made Shorts did not like the looks of the cold weather lowering about to the northwest and of the cotton belt al- though the official forecast did not say that temperatures would be lower in the western cotton belt over Saturday. Pri- yate cable messages explained the slump in Liverpool by stating that 1t was mere- ly the result of the putting out of hedges against heavy imports of actual cotton. This gave the market better feeling and at the end of the first half hour of trad ing prices were only to points under yesterdays closing.
 The market was very steady around the middle of the morning on the an- nouncement by freight brokers that an enormous export movement during Octo- Der was in sight. It was said by one of the largest ocean freight brokers in this port that the congestion in Calves ton. was getting so bad that one of the railroads having a terminus In that port had asked him for rates for October sail- ing out of this port for cotton originating in west Texas. Galveston rates were met and 1t may be that considerable Texas cotton will move through this port. The knowledge that all available October room to some European port out of Gal weston had been booked for cotton stim- ulated the market and the trading months wore put to 1 points over yes- terday's last quotations. The rise ~'o,''4 have been wider but for free liquidation
