NEW ORLEANS COTTON
New Orleans, Sept S.-The move
ments of the tropical storm in the West
Indies and the extremely small ginning
returns to the first of September were
responsible for buying wave on the
opening of the cotton market today. In
the first half hour of business the trad
ing months gained 81 to 80 points.
Very heavy offerings from the short
side met the hard spot, and a slump
of 81 bale resulted. Late in the morn
ing the market was 4S to So points
under the closing levels of last week.
The storm warning, stating that the
center of the tropical disturbance
should be over Florida, caused a sharp
bulge and at l O'Clock the market stood
~ to 20 points higher than Saturdays
close.

sion here. today of cotton growers, fac
