ORLEANS COTTON
RANGES HIGHER
Effect of Favorable Opinion of Politi-
cal Outlook in Europe is Felt.

NEW ORLEANS, May 10.-A favor
able opinion Of the political outlook in
Europe and bad weather in the belt
put the price Of cotton higher in a mild
sort of way today, following small de-
clines around the opening, when the
market was under the influence Of
poor cables. At the highest the trad
ing months were IL to 10 points over
the close Of yesterday, with July up to
1890, and the close was at net gains
of to IL points, with July at 1888.
In the early trading the failure of
Liverpool to make good the gains on
this side Of the water yesterday after
noon and pessimistic talk concern
ing the British coal strike, and more or
less hedge selling held the market down
and forced losses of to s points. but
when July touched 1911. a better de-
mand began to be felt, although hedge
selling was held in moderate way
during practically the entire session.
The weather map showed much rain
in the western and central divisions
Of the belt, with the rainfall heavy in
many localities, Waco, Texas, report
ing 4.26 inches, and many points re-
porting from to inches. Private mes
sages said that the weather would i'm
pede further planting. The rain had
the effect Of causing most traders to
anticipate bullish weekly crop reports

REACTION AGAIN
I'm STOCK MARKET
Sentiment in Financial District Was
increasingly Bearish.

NEW YORK, May 10.-Sentiment in
the financial district today was in
crea singly bearish and this feeling
found free expression in the stock mar
ket, where shares of almost every de-
scription were subjected to renewed
selling pressure.
The reaction again was most pro-
nounced in issues of the automobile
companies and their subsidiaries, which
sustained further losses of to A points
and recent exhibits of poor earnings,
more price cutting and persistent ru-
mors of unfavorab1e trade prospects
were factors in the additional offerings
Of these shares.
Other stocks, notably those Of the
tobacco, food and utility groups, were
extensively traded in. Rails. which rose
almost buoyantly in yesterdays final
hour, cancelled the greater part of their
gains when rumors circulated on the
exchange that no immediate settlement
of wages and freight rates was prob
able.
Almost the only stock'of which bears
were cautious was Mexican petroleum,
which made an extreme advance of
3 IA points in the last hour, when the
cessions to the rise of call money from
6 IL to per cent.
