NEW YORK COTTON
>NEW YORK.—There was a con
tinuation of the upward movement
of prices in the opening cotton
jmarket. Between the apparently
ig strength of the Liver
pool market, the reported basis
for settlement of the coal strike, a
more favorable view of the Italian
news, and reports of unfavorable,
weather in the south, the buying
was active and general. First
preies were firm at an advance of
36 to 45 points and October con
tracts soon sold at 27.00 while
December touched 26.85 or net
advances of 46 to 48 points with
all months making'new high rec
ords for the season. The advance

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS. — New high
levels for the season again made!
in the cotton market Saturday on
a buying movement that started
ori the opening and which at the
end of the first hour of business
had prices 32 to* 36 points up.
October was sent to 26 cents a
pound. Rains in Texas that were
not expected, ns well as moisture
in Oklahoma and in central and
eastern portions of belt, caused
much of buying. Liverpool, open
on a Saturday simultaneously with
the American markets for the first
time in years, was better than
due and the effect of other bullish
influences was Increased by* the
favorable tone of week-end re
views of the country’s general
comments. . .
v The first effect of the ginning
report, placing the total output of
the nouth tfb the 'first of September
nt 1,141,337 bales and breaking all
high records, was to cause enough
selling to practically wipe out the
early gains. A little later the most
determined buying came into the
market, apparently based on the
fact that nearly all of the ginning
was done in Texas, the total for
