New Orleans. La.. Feb. 17.— After reactin#
from prolonged advance In the 4hoorfttnff
hours today, the i^otton market here recov-
ered In the afternoon and w»»nt to a slight
net ad\ \nce ea the ^trenc**eC months. The
mnu» influences workiaff Cor lower prices
were the ivlee fixing bin introduced in con-
grv»e yesterday and private fareca»ts ef
raine for Texas. l*h^ m. rket came hack e«
trade buying and reports ef largti purchases
of spots by eastern mills.
The opening wae at the advance and the
most active uionthe were S to t point* up
on the first call, baying betug based on the
abeence of rain In Texa**. Immediately after
the call, preeeare to sell appeared and the
market sagged. TU.% atunn ai-ea juet enter-
ing the belt by way of Texas wae taken by
bearish tnriere to mean that the extreme
western belt wae altout to get much needed
rain and selling orders increased. The close
was unchanged to « points off. compared
with yesterday's final quotations.
New \ ork.
New York, Feb." 27.- Heavy reallilng was
encouraged on an advance at the opening ef
the cotton market today hut after breaking
from 81.25 to 30 88 for May. prices rallied
Mth that delivery closing at II 06. The
gvuerul list closed steady, net 1& points
higher to 7 points low er, new crop poult ions
b«ing relatively easier on prospects for rain
In the southwest
The upemug advance ef C to 1? points re-
flected the firmness of Liverpool and re-
newal of yesterday's buying movement, but
sentiment seemed to be somewhat unsettled
by reuewed talk ef government price regu-
lation aud there was a good deal of preflt
taking.
At auy rate, there was scattered local AUd
southern selling and after the close of
Uverpool. the market broke to 11.1? for
March and 30.Su for July, while October
sold eft to 29 86, or 3& to 82 points net
lower ou tho more active positions. The
volume of liquidation then subsided end the
market turned firmed durlug the after-
noon on reports of a good demand for spots
out of the local stock.
Trade Interests were buyers both on the
esrly decline and afternoon tally, ahich waa
accompanied by reports that lame orders
for cotUm duek aere pending in the do-
mestic goods markets. March led tbo rally,
selling at 81 4&, or into n«w high ground fur
the day In tho late tiadiug, while other eld |
crop months recovered to about or a shade
over last sight's closing figures.

Chicago, HI., Feb. 27.- Hardening of grain
values today accompanied a cessation of
peace gossip. Corn closed steady ut a net
advance of a shade, with March $1.27%
and May $1.24ft«t 1.27, Oats gained
Provision, fluished 20c ta 27c down.
Subsidence of talk about a possibility of
th. Von Hertling address affording some
prospect of an early end of hostilities put
the bears at a disadvantage In the corn
market throughout the day. In the late
dealings, however, the fact that the weather
was excellent for a heavy movement of
corn from rural sources to primary centers
acted as a weight on prices. Likelihood
of a falling off in receipts tended to stimu-
late demand for oats. - It was said pro-
ducer. and rnlironda were both given pref- j
erenre to th. handling of com.
Sharp breaks in the price of hog. wealc*
ened provisions, much selling was also cann-
ed by the report that the government al-
lotment of March contracts bad been of less
volume "than expected.
