New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans October s31.-Heavy selling made It's appearance in cotton here today, following a period of higher prices around the opening. Prices gave way under the pressure and the close showed net loss of IS to 21 points. At the low est of the session the market stood 2l to 32 points down. The early rise carried prices S4 to 37 points above the level of yesterdays last quotations.
 Early buying was based on cold weather over the belt and the rise of penny a pound in the price of Liverpool spots. For awhile the demand was hard to supply but finally liquidating sales came from the long side. and this sort of selling increased. evidently encour- aged by the holiday here tomorrow in observance of All Saints Day.
 Rumors of an important rise in ocean freight rates were among the most im- portant bear influences of the session and their effect was intensified by the lack of foreign clearances of cotton from any pert during the day Because of the pressure to sell which developed be- fore the middle of the morning the er- feet of the bullish weekly crop and weather accounts from the government, the last of the season, was completely offset Bulls claimed these reports fully confirmed their contentious that cold weather had cut the yield to material extent.
