Market News
New York Cotton.


New York, May l2-An early de-
cline was followed by recoveries IN
the cotton market today on contn-
ued buying and reports of unfavorable
weather in the south October sold
up from $24S5 to $685. and closed
at $25.16, with the general list clos
ing steady at a net advance of to
IL points.
The market opened steady at a de-
cline in response to lower cables and
scattered southern selling. The early
offerings were absorbed within two or
three points of the opening figures by
trade buying and moderate COM
mission house demand which was
promoted by the wet weather map
and the continued bullish news from
the goods trade.
The market eased off again with
May relatively weak under scattering
liquidation accompanied by reports
that several thousand bales of cot
ton were coming here from South
Carolina and Georgia for delivery on
contract. Later months held very
steady, however, reaching the best
prices of the day in the late trading
on apDrehensions that grass would
get Roadway in the southern cotton
fields because OF the wet weather.
Private cables attributed the decline
in Liverpool to increased hedge sell
ing.
Part of the trade buying here was
believed to be against the forward
business of domestic mills, while there
was also some buying of July and
October supposed to represent COW
ering of hedges by exporters.
Cotton spot quiet; middling $3.50
