COTTON IS STEADY
IN TODAY'S TRADING
Market Rallies After Slight
Early Drop-CabIeS and
Weather Factors.


NEW YORK. January 1S.-The cot
ton market opened today at decline
of to points under renewed lidui'
dalton, coupled with some Southern
and local selling. The latter probably
was promoted by reports of falling
off in spot demand after the compile
ton Of mid-January enga gements, but
early offerings were readily absorbed
by covering or buying on continued
favorable reports from Liverpool and
predictions for another cold wave in
the South.
March steadied after easing off to
1928 and rallied to 1892 by the end
of the first hour. when the general
market was within point or two of
yesterdays closing quotations.
Private cables said hedging had
been absorbed by trade calling and
Manchester buying in Liverpool, and
there was large inquiry for cotton
cloths from India,
New Orleans Market.
NEW ORLEANS, La. January IS
CPD.-Better Liverpool cables than
due and the continued good spot de.
mand on the Liverpool market sent
prices up l to points in the
opening trades here today. Failure
Of the New York market to r. spond
10 the Liverpool firmness caused the
market to ease off, however, until
March reached 1925, May l3.44 and
from the high and / to points
under the previous close. The
weather map showed rain and snow
in the cotton belt. however, and the
market again Steadied at the end of
the first half hour.
