New York, Sept. 24.—Trade buy
ing and further covering absorbed
hedge and local selling during the
morning.
There was hedge selling in Liver
pool and Liverpool sold here. The
best prices for the day were made
around noon on Wall street buying
due to reports of a tropical storm
and heavy rain at Brownsville, but
the bulge met plenty of offerings.
The weekly weather was unfavor
able as to the Carolinas and Geor
gia but not so bad elsewhere.
Comment turned bearish again in
the afternoon and included a pre
diction that if frost is delayed they
■will be picking cotton in January.
It was also reported that mills in
Alabama had no room for new cot
ton because their storehouses were
stocked up with unsold goods. It
may be a trading affair for a while
but the general prospective supply
and demand situation appears to be
such that easier markets may be
expected.
