NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, August 29.-The cotton market started out today with moderate decline which during the early part of the morning carried prices down about $1.60 bale, mainly owing to weaker Liverpool cables than due. Later prices rallied quite sharply on covering by shorts, advancing $350 bale from the low and nearly g over the close of yesterday. After opening IT to IS points down prices continued to ease off until around the end of the first hour Oc- tober traded at 23.70c and December at 23.S5c, or 2S to 32 points below the previ- ous close. The market strengthened later in the morning and continued to advance, reaching the highest of the day in the last half hour of trading, with October at 24.40c and December at 24.53c, or 6S to 70 points above the lows of the morning. There was a slight re- cession near the end, the close showing net gains for the day of 29 to 35 points.
 The early decline was due mainly to Liverpool coming in much lower than due, it being stated that the foreign market was depressed by reports of a lower basis in southern markets. After the weather map had been posted, showing little rain in the cotton region, and the official forecast had shown no immediate prospect for a change in the weather, the market rallied on the great number of deterioration reports which reached traders from practically all parts of the belt.
 The second tropical storm of the sea- son, first reported yesterday, was a source of uneasiness to shorts.
 A prominent southern authority made the condition 62.9 and the indicated crop Il, ,s5O,725 bales.

 MODERATE GAIN Recovery Due To Short Covering Prompted By
 Reichstag Action

NEW YORK, August 29.-Short cov- ering, prompted by the German reich stag's passage of legislation necessary to put the Dawes plan into effect, brought apout a moderate rally of prices in today's stock market after . nearly period of irregularity. Trad ing was again of pre-holiday char acter, total sales slightly exceeding 100000 shares. ..
 Industrial shares led the recovery, net gains of 1h to 3h points being record ed by United States Steel common, Baldwin, American Can, Marine pre- ferred, United States Cast Iron Pipe and many others.
 Pan-American issues, which recorded an extreme break of points each, were the outstanding weak spots. Sell ing of these stocks undoubtedly reflect cd speculative disappointment. The seu1i-annual report which showed earn ings of $2.93 a share on the common against earlier estimates of a least $4 a share. 3 Copper shares were the first to re- gpond to the favorable foreign news, buying of these issues being predicted on the belief that Germany will be heavy buyer of raw materials in the American market soon after the flota- tion of the $2o0, 100000 loan to that country. Shipping shares, which were
  ly when the reichstag's action become known in the financial district.
 Weekly mercantile reviews testified to the slow but steady improvement in most lines of trade. Spectators for the advance construed the weekly fed eral reserve statements as indicating continued ease in the money situa- tion.
 New high prices for the year were recorded by Associated Dry Goods, which jumped more than points, to 121h, and by Maxwell Motor issues, North American company and Cush- mans Bakery. Union Bag and Paper touched a new low at ASA.
 Heavy selling of Superior Oil, which dropped points, to Sh, and then re- covered half of its loss, was attributed to the final disposition by the bond syn dicate of large blocks of stocks ac- quired through warrants attached to the bonds. Tidewater Oil was run up more than 8 points. Most of the other Speculative interest in the railroad group was confined largely to the Frisco issues, Pittsburg and West Vir- ginia, Nickel Plate preferred and North ern Pacific up 1 to 2 points, and in Rutland preferred, which established another new top at 56N, and then slipped back to 54N, up 1%. The Pere Marquette issues made no response to the directors ratification of the Nickel Plate merger plan.
 Call money continued to hold at 2 per cent. Time money and commercial paper rates were unchanged, although a growing scarcity of time funds at 8 per cent.
 Foreign exchanges made a quick re- sponse to the favorable separations developments, demand sterling moved up more than cents above $4.50 and French francs were again quoted above 51S cents. Other European rates irn- proved in sympathy.

CURR EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, August 29.-Curb prices displayed a, decidedly better tone in to- days market, although trading was again relatively light in character. Oils stlffened on short covering, which was inspired by Germany's acceptance of the Dawes report. South Penn jumped 2 points in reflection of reports that the Tidewater oil company had offered producers in the Bradford district a premium of 25 cents a barrel of posted prices on a five-year contract, while Let gains of 1 to 2 points were recorded by Cities Service, Mutual, Imperial oil of Canada, Ohio Oil, Vacuum and Prairie Oil and Gas.
 Radio shares showed mixed changes, Dubilier rallying 2 points above yester- days close, Jones touching a new high att Sss and Thompson, Hazeltine and Rova showing moderate recessions. Further accumulation of Commonweath Power sent it up to 10s, up 1h points.
 The feature of the bond market was a break of nearly points in Consoli- dated Textile ss of 1941, reflecting the uncertainty over the payment of Sep tember 1 interest on the per cent bonds of B. B. and R. Knight, Inc, com mon stock, which is owned by the Consolidated.
