Over Private Wires
Over W. I. Phelts & Co.'S Wire,

New orleans March S.-Seared shorts put prices up on themselves in the cot ton market today. The opening was at the advance and the improvement was constantly widened untiL late in the ses- sion, it amounted tg 47 to 107 points on the old contract months and to 59 to S2 points on the new. One of the results of the days trading was to materially mar row differences between the two styles of contracts.
 The buying movement appeared to have its inception in a belated recognition of the value of the old contract. at present discounts on the low spot grades. Shorts grew more fearful of demands for actual cotton on contract and they started to cover on the opening. They found little cotton for sale. Short selling, of course. was not permissible in old contracts but there was little evidence of it in the new contract. The narrowing of differneces between the two contracts was due to the pressure to buy old contracts rather than any pressure to sell the new.
 In many respects the market wore a more normal look and there was less of the uncertainty which has been on dis play during the two preceding sessions and this leads to the hope that the mar |ket will find itself this coming week.
 Weather conditions are extremely bad.

New York Futures
a. New York, March S-Cotton close
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, March S-Decided strength developed in cotton today, the market feeling pressure to buy from the open ing to the close as the result of grow ing nervousness. among old contract shorts. Their efforts to cover created a demand which the ring could not sup ply except at higher levels. The rise or 75 points in spot prices, which car ried middling up to 2675c, and the con tinued wet weather in the cotton re- zion, together with the storm warning for the east Gulf coast, were features which increased the buying power of the mar ket. Opening higher, the improvement continued until it amounted to 47 to 12i points on the old contracts and 65 to S2 points on the new; the close showed net gains of 32 to PA points on the old and 54 to 62 points on the new
 With increased pressure to buy in the old contract market and no pressure to sell in the new the tendency was for differences between the two to narrow. One element in the spot department claimed that the old contract was more valuable than the new at present dis co,fnts on the low grades and predicted that many old contract longs would de- mand actual cotton for their contracts.
 At the highest levels old May traded at 23 45c and new May at 23.G0c.

IMPROVED TONE ID
 COTTON SITUATION
General List Was Steady to Firm at Net Advance of
 g to 12 Points
By Associated Prcu

New York. March S.-The cotton mar ket showed an improved tone today with indications of broadening inter- est in the new style contracts. The bulk of the business. however, was still attributed to liquidation or switch ing from the old to the new style de- liveries and the difference between the two showed 8 tendency to narrow, with old style May closing at 224ee. and the new style at 22T5c or only 35 points apart. The general ruling of the mar ket was steady to firm and the close was steady at 8 net advance of 52 to l2 points on the old and of 35 to 50 points on the new style contract.
 The market opened steady at un- changed prices to an advance of 27 points on old and 12 to 20 points higher on new style months in response to bullish overnight spot advicss from the south and reports of better tone in the goods trade. Spot interests were buy CTS of old and sellers of new contracts to transfer short hedges and there was fresh wire and commission house buy ing of new style months, which ab sorbed offerings. It seemed, however. that some of the old longs who were liquidating on the advance were not i'm mediately replacing In the new style months, and the switching by trade in- terest, consequently had tendency to bring the two contracts nearer together. The late months were relatively firm in the new style contract with Octo- Der selling up from 20.15c to 20.65c and closing at 2Q.60c, while old style Oc- toberN ranged between 19.75c and 20.36c Closing at 20.30c. There was scattered realizing in the late trading. but last prices were within few points of the best.
 It was reported around the ring the steadiness of futures was leading to firmer holding of spot cotton in the south. Fall River sales of print cloths for the Week were estimated at 10000 pieces and the c9rtailment of produc- tion of 240,0O0 pieces The business included deliveries as far as next June and according to some authorities there are indications of gradually reviving domestic demand for textiles.
