NEW ORLEANS COTTON


NEW ORLEANS, March 29.--The
cotton market was quite active for the
short session of q Saturday; and, al
though there was. selling pressure at
times, the general trend was upward.
The high points Of the day were made
near the opening, with May trading up
to 2Sc, July at 26.S0c and October at
2s.71c, or 80 to s6 points above the
previous close. Later profit-taking and
some short selling forced May down to
N.61c. July to 26.57c and October to
23.39c. or % to SO points off from the
high; but the close showed net gains
for the day of 80 to 80 points on old
crop months and 10 to 20 points on
neW-crop positions.
The start was extremely bouyant in
sympathy with good cables and stimu-
lated by very unfavorable weather
map. Storms were reported from Okla
homa, Arkansas and northern Missis-
sippi and the weather map showed
quite general rains In the western por-
ton OF the belt and in the northern
half Of the central belt. Liverpool re-
ported heavy trade calling and shorts
covering, and the early firmness of the
market was added to by decidedly more
favorable, dry goods reports. Worth
street traders wired that they believed
that the turn for better had come In
the goods market and there was broad
er buying At the recent cut in prices,
and exports for the week of piece goods
had been rather liberal.
Profit-taking and evening up for over
weekend were responsible for the reac-
tion from the early advance, and some
selling was also due to the forecast of
clearer weather In the western half
of the belt. There was also short COW
ering, 1t being reported that a good
sized short line was covered In the To-
cal market. Good trade buying alb
sorbed the offerings promptly; and,
although prices did not rally much
from the lows, net results showed SUBJ
stantial gains for the day.
Private advices indicated a growing
demand for spots, and the Japanese
were credited with absorbing a good
amount to be taken out of the New
York stock, already ear-marked for
considerable reductions by exports dur
ing April.
