New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, May 2.-Cotton futures opened steady, points down to 1 point up on the old crop months, and 3 points up on the new. Cables were favorable and the weather map was unfavorable, but the market was held down on the first call by heavy realizing sales Imme- diately after the call the market rose to a level 46 points over yesterdays close on a storm warning for the Texas coast. To all appearances, a storm off the mouth of the Rio Grande was headed for the south- ern portions of the cotton belt. On this small rise profit taking by longs became heavier than ever. and at the end of the first half hour of trading the active months were l to 3 points under yester- days close.

Be Raced by Contractors
Army of Men.

Although the thoroughfare has not
been closed to foot passengers who
nave n pass the work OF removing
Mayo's Bridge has been pressed rap
idly during the last two weeks. All
the wiring, cables and trimmings"
have been removed. and the way is
now open for the real work. 1t ia
probable that during the early part Of
this week even foot passengers Will
be forbidden the bridge. as the con.

So many thousands OF barrels of CO.
ment VIII be required in the building
OF the new bridge that 1t is a gigan.
tic undertaking in itself to haul IL
to the site. Many carloads have al
ready been brought to each sido of
the river. and as fast as 1t arrives.
the cement Is put under shelter In
temporary wooden shacks. Other ma
terial to be used In the structure Is
also being hauled. and the forerun-
ners of tho small army of men to be
engaged have arrived and are at work.
Given favorable conditions. and bar
ring unforeseen difficulties. the CON
tractor expects to have the site cleared
and ready to begin putting up the new
bridge within month or six weeks
and then the work will go with a
rush. By next summer the bridge
VIII be completed and open to travel.
