NEW YORK. Sept. 13. —Mixed senti rnent was reflected in the cotton market at the opening today, first prices being unchanged to 2 points higher to 1 to 3 points lower. Within a few minutes, however, scattered realizing brought quo tations down froni 4 to 5 points. The active months were hardest hit. After nearly three-quarters of an hour's trad ing. weather predictions caused buying, which resulted in prices moving up 10 to 15 points. During the forenoon trading, the bujls began to liquidate, which was believed to be profit taking, and prices quickly receded 9 to 10 points, losing almost all the gain recorded during the early trad ing. 'Phe market did not respond to the ad vance in Liverpool until the larger spot interests wore noticeable buyers, which started a short covering by the ring, which was evidently short. There was very, lit tie cotton for sale, only from the bulls taking profit. During the after noon trading renewed buying started prices on an upward movement, and they regained the 10 to 15 points decline, and the entire list aggregated 11 to 21 points over the opening range. Sentiment continues very bullish and shorts are very nervous. Cordill’s report on Texas and Oklahoma was taken very seriously, as reports from* that section until recently were very favorable. It is believed that a short Interest is still in the market and anticipations are for 12c by next week. At the close the market was firm with prices ranging from 11 tn 24 points high er than the final quotations of Thursday.

Oklahoma and Arkansas: scattered showers in central belt: fair in Atlantics. Advisory disturbance central southwest of Pensacola wl'l probably move north, northwest and pass inland tonight or Sat urday, attended by strong shifting winds in northwest Florida. Alabama. Missis sippi coast and Louisiana coast. The New Orleans Times-Democrat says: Another storm warning for the gulf coast, following a higher market in Liverpool, encouraged American operators to buv contracts, and later In the day higher spot quotations at Savannah. Augusta, Houston. Galveston and Dallas made them feel safer. The weather over the belt as a whole, seems almost Ideal. Rains have fallen day after day in the eastern I states and no trace of the recent dry spell I should remain. Yesterday good rains I were officially reported in portions of the west, and after the close of the official record private advices brought reports of further good rains in Texas and in Okla- | homa. Nevertheless unfavorable crop re ports continued to come both from Texas and from the Atlantic states, and the talent's uncertainty as to the extent of the deterioration during August made the market very sensitive. In Alabama and Georgia, where thf new crop movement is very much later than last year, sellers of early supplies are probably encountering some difficulty in estimating the action they need. This would account for the apparent strength of the Savannah and Augusta spot mar kets. though such strength. if really predicated on this cause, is no guide to the future and particularly so in view of the fact that some export cotton is being offered by Alabama and Georgia on a very low basis.
