PRICES DISPOSED
TO WORK HIGHER
Quiet Session on Exchange
With the General Tone
Very Steady

New Orleans, January 26.-It was a quiet
session on the cotton exchange TODAY. hut
the general tone was very steady and
prices were disposed to work higher. Ex-
cept at the opening no great activity
was in evidence and neither side was ag-
gressive for any great length of time.
The dullness held prices down in the face
OF much bullish gossip.
The good tone was based on a favorable
view of the Mexican situation, reports of
easier money in the dig markets. i'm
provement in the steel trade and state
ments from the interior of the belt that
banks We're eager to renew loans against
cotton Bulls advanced the claim that
the remainder of the crop in the south
was financed for\ the season. and that
holders We're in an exceptionally strong
position.
In the afternoon, toward the close. the
market was helped by the rise of one
eighth in the local spot department and
the report that factors were asking an
advance of one-quarter over Saturday s
prices for choice lines.
The opening was steady at an advance
of 2 to points In the early trading
the rise was widened to 8 to points.
but this early gain was wiped out by
determined selling on the part of shorts
Later the market went ur again and in
the afternoon the more active options
we're to 8 points over Saturdays last
quotations. The close was at a net gain
of l to points.
