NEW YORK COTTON FUTURES
NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS. April 26.-First notice day for. the May position brought no ten- ders with 1t in the local cotton market today and prices were higher from the opening in consequence. Reports of still better spot demand and the further un- favorable weather in the belt were sup ports of the strongest kind. and the mar ket went to It's highest In the afternoon following private messages from Texas telling of rains heavy enough to cause serious and damaging overflows along some river systems Highest prices came late in the day. when May reached up to 26. o7c . pound and the active months were at gains of 7s to 1o4 points: old crops were stronger than the new. Oc- tober traded up to 24.77c at its best. The close was at net gains of 62 to 90 points. with May at 27 SC and October at 24 6sc
 Much better cables than due and the wet weather map helped to cause the higher opening. Not single May notice appeared in this market and reports from New York estimating May tenders there at only 5000 bales increased the effect of lack of tenders here. Forecast for the western belt was unfavorable predicting more unsettled weather and increased the uneasiness of snorts. out short covering did not reach its largest proportions un- til around and after mid session, when Texas was wiring in its most alarming re- ports.
 The weekly crop returns from the gov ernment were hardly as unfavorable as expected. but they were entirely offset by the daily weather returns from Texas where. out of 49 weather stations report ing, 43 wet

EXCITED ADVANCE TAKES PLACE IN COTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, April 25-The prompt stopping of May notices and reports of very unfavorable weather for the new crop start in the Southwest caused an excited advance in the cot ton market today. Old crop months sold approximately a cent above the closing quotations of yesterday. May contracts advancing to 2S93. or 1O? points net higher and more than two cents a pound above the low level of late last week. That delivery closed at 2S.75, with the general mark ct closing barely steady, 42 to s1 points net higher.
 points higher on relatively steady cables. an unfavorable weather map and reports of an improving spot de- mand in the south. There was some scattering near month liquidation owing to the issuance of notices against May contracts representing 7.6o0 bales. but trade interests were good buyers of May and the market became firmer on reports that they were prepared to take up deliveries May was little more firmer when 1t reached a premium. of 100 points over July and after showing net advances of about 40 to 63 points prices react ed several points under realizing trade interests continued buying on this decline, however, and the mar ket 1lrmed up again during the aft- ernoon on bullish southern spot ad- vances, the detailed weather report showing heavy rains in Texas and Oklahoma.
 Shorts seemed to become very nervous on an idea that unfavorab,e crop reports were stimulating de- mand for both futures and spots and the market reached the highest prices of the day in the late trading with July selling at 27.90 and Oc- tober at 25.30. At these prices the market showed net advances of 9S to 109 points on the old crop and 8 to Il points on the new. The close was some 12 to 20 points off from the best under realizing.
 Nervousness over the new crop start probably was increased by un- favorable features in the weekly weather bureau. Port receipts to- day were 4501 bales port stocks 175,717. Exports 10,460, making 4,- 23S.570 so far this season.
