COTTON MAKES GAIN
 OF ONE-TH|RD OF ITS RECENT B|G DIPS
General Staple List Closed Steady at a Net Advance of One Twenty-Five to One
 Forty-tWo Points
By Associated Press

New York, September 19.--The cot- ton market recovered about one- third of it's recent losses during to- days trading. offerings were much smaller after the heavy liquida tion of last week and revival of bullish confidence on the ultimate effect ot small crop figures sent the price ot December contracts up to 19.80 or go points above Saturdays closing quo- tation.
 Some of the later months showed even greater gains and the market closed strong at net advances of 125 to 142 points
 Liverpoo1 was relatively easy early but reported a good trade demand on which there Tlrmed up before the To- cal opening. The market here start ed firm at an advance of 30 to 3S points in consequence and after some little irregularlty, showed increasing strength on reports that offerings ot spot cotton were being withdrawn on the decline of late last week. There was a good demand which tended to color these reports, while the active selling of last week had left con- paratively little speculative selling power In the market here.
 At times the buying was urgent enough to suggest that something of a short interest had accumulated on the recent declines of about 5 cents a pound from the high prices touche ed on the last government report, and there were rumors late in the day that some of the larger Wall Street interests were placing long lines on which they had taken profits recent ly. October contracts sold up to l9.45 and January to 19,S0, with ac- tive months generally showing net advances of 130 to 142 points in the late trading. Except for the talk of smaller spot offerings, there was no fresh factor connected with the ad- vance. Weather conditions in the south were considered more favor able than otherwise, while there was little or no change in the news from the goods trade Local brokers at tributed the advance largely to the improvement in the technical position of the market as result of last weeks decline and growing belief that southern spot holders would market their cotton gradually in the hope of securing higher prices be- fore the end of the season.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-09-20
NEW ORLEANS COTTON

A
 New Orleans, September 19.-Ad- vances approximating hc & pound were made by cotton today on re- vulsion of the speculative feeling of last week. Better cables than due, reports that growers were refusing to sell at prevailing prices, and in many points in the western belt, were hauling cotton back home, claims of trade improvement in the English market and the rumor that a large brokerage firm was coming out with condition report of .35, the lowest condition per centage ever talked Of in connection with the cotton crop, were tho main buying influences of the day.
 A most healthy technical condition, resulting from the heavy and pro longed selling of last week, was in- dicated by the action of the market in the early trading. Throughout the session it responded readily to buying. and the demand constantly strengthened, some of it coming from new buyers just entering the market and some of it from shorts who were hurrying to cover. The initial bulge amounted to about 90 points and sub seouently, with only small reactions, the gain was widened to IA to 1o1 points, highest prices being reached in the late trading, when October rose to 1934c. October closed at the highest and the list on the close showed net gains of 142 to 15l points.
 Claims that the crop gathering was nearing completion in many sections of the belt aroused a considerable outside demand, especially in the carly part of the trading,
