NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Overnight
selling in large volume, in which was CON
siderable mixture of hedge offerings, weighed
against prices in the cotton market on the
opening today and caused declines OF Y 10
81 points. Following this initial break good
support was rendered and recovery carried
the most active months upward until they
were points higher than the close of yes
terday The market turned very irregular
and softened under a private bureau report
on condition of 42.5 per cent of normal in
dicating crop of about 6,547 900 bales, ana
at the end of the first hour of business &C.
tober was % points under yesterday close
October at its best sold at 10 81.
Liquidation of long contracts became
rather extensive and this sort OF selnns
was heaviest in October, apparently pc
cause of the nearness of first notice day for
tat month. Toward II o'clock October fell
off to 1870, or "a points under the close
of yesterday. .
Heaviest selling pressure of the session
developed IN the late trading when the &C
tive months were forced 40 to 80 points
under the close Of yesterday. October fell
to 10. 90 cents toward the close.
