New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, March 27.-Higher prices prevailed in cotton today from the opening to the close. There was much short covering but also good fresh demand for long account, due, at the start, to better cables than expected and later to the unfavorable weather over the Delta and to a more bullish interpretation of the foreign situation. Highest prices were reached late in the day. Last prices were 7S to 98 points up net on the new contract and 50 to 90 points up net on the old.
 LiverpooPs strength and the lar ger spot transactions were taken to mean that better business was being done in Manchester. Early buy CTS found little for sale and the con- tinued rains in the belt made sellers all the more wary, especially after reports commenced to come in from Texas claiming large reductions in acreage. Italy's new military move caused a slight reaction from the ad- vance but late in the day, the mar ket appeared to regard reports of French military activity as bullish rather than bearish.
 Cotton closed old steady at an ad- vance of 50 to 90 points and new very steady at an advance of 7S to 92 ,,Cir,fc

New York Cotton.

New York, March 27.-A more fla vorable view of European political conditions with reports of more rapid progress in the peace conference and unfavorable weather for farm work i'll the south were considered respon- sible for an advance of approximate ly five dollars bale in the cotton market today. New style May con tracts sold up to 24.60, or 93 points above last nights closing prices and closed at 24.56 with the general list closing strong at a net gain of 89 to 115 points on the new and of 90 to 105 points on the old style con- tracts.
 The market opened firm in respon- SC to higher Liverpool cables. Liver pool was good buyer here, while there was active covering by recent sellers and also some southern buy ing of new crop months accompan- jed by continued complaints of de- layed farm work. Realizing caused slight reactions during the middle of the day but the offerings were we'll absorbed and the market show ed increasing strength late in the afternoon on continued buying for Liverpool account and the news from Paris concerning the adoption of the amended covenant for the league of nations.
 It was reported that one of the To- cal houses had received cable from a Hamburg firm Via Rotterdam ask ing for information concerning fu- lures. Private cables from Liverpool
