NEW ^ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS — VWlth the
government’s crop estimate due In
tho early afternoon, tho cotton
market In the early session Tues
day was a waiting affair. Poor
cables caused recessions of 2 to 7
points around the opening after
which a small raly carried the
most active months 1 to 2 points
over the close of yesterday, but
at tho end of the. first half hour it
business enough llqu'datlon was
coming on the market. to depress
It again, and prices fell off to net
declines of 7 to 11 points. Janu
ary traded at high as 24.63 and as
low as 24.55 cents a pound.
A small volume of liquidation
continued from the long side and
kept the market at moderate de
pressions. Toward noon prices
were 17 to 19 points down on the
most active months, with January
at 24.43.
Just before the government’s
estimate at one o’clock the market
stood at 24.40 for January. The
period of depression was short and
during it, when active months
broke 20. points to 24.20 for Janu
ary, the market stood 38 to 44
points under the close of yester
day, its lowest level for 'the day.
Heavy buying appeared, carrying
everything before it and strength
ening prices to the extent nf more
than $3 a bale. In the trading up
to 1:30 o’clock January was sent
to 24.84, where the list showed
net gains over yesterday's close
of 19 to 27 points.

grading stations. The government
could provide tho necessary per
sonnel and facilities, but the cost
of grading, which probably would
not amount to more than 30 or 40
.ents a bale, should be paid by the
owner of the cotton.
“With uniform grading thus,
provided for throughout the cotton
growing region, it would *bo pos
sible to obtain from the grading
stations the numbers of bnles of
the several classes graded, and
from consumers and exporters the
numbers of bales of the several
grades consumed and exported.”
