NEW YORK COTTON NEW YORK — The cotton mar ket oi>encd steady at an advance of 7 to 14 points. This was not a full response to tho over holiday strength of Liverpool, and there appeared to be considerable sell ing for Wall Street and Southern account. These early offerings were readily absorbed, however, by commission house and scatter ed trade buying and prices soon worked up to 28.40 for May and 25.35 for October or about ten to 15 points net hlghor. Private ca bles said the strength In Liverpool was due to moderate trade calling and light offerings. Rouses with Liverpool connections were buy ers here df'tho opening probably on the differences and over holi day reporta of a* firm spot situa tion were reflected by the relative firm ruling of March contracts The weather map showed consider able rain In the south with preci pitation heavy In parts of Missis sippi and Georgia. Reports of an active demand in the local markef for cotton goods for deliveries extending into May at the ton prices for the season probably helped the tone of the early market. After selling up to 28.41 for May however, the volume of buisne8s tapered off and trading became comparatively quiet liter In the morning. The early realiz ing by Wall Street traders, com bined by southern selling appear ed to have supplied the Immediate demand and prices sagged off un der scattering liquidation.

Tho market was easier during the middle of the afternoon unden a renewal of scattering liquida tion with May selling off to 28.08 and with the more active months showing net losses of about 6 to 17 points around 2 o'clock.
