COTTON N NEW YORK, March 8.—Old crop de liveries made new high records for the season In the cotton market here this morning but heavy realising sales were encountered around 81.47 for May con tracts and there were sharp reactions In the later trading. May sold off to 30.88 or 69 points from the high level of the morning and closed at 30.90 with the general market closing easy at net declines of 26 to 87 points. The market opened steady at an ad vance of 3 points on July but generally 7 to 14 points lotfer, under overnight selling orders which were supposed to represent realizing and the little hedg ing from the south. These Initial off erings were very readily absorbed, and the market soon sol'd about 5 to 20 points net higher on renewed covering by old crop shorts. Trade buying was also reported on the advance which carried March contracts up to 31,05 and July to 30.50 while October sold at 28.93. There was a good deal of scattered southern selling of the early new crop deliveries and reactionary sentiment became more general during the mid dle of the day owing to a less favorable view of the near eastern political situ ation, less bullish reports from the southern spot markets and a bearish In terpretation of a statement on boll weevil emergency from hibernation. According to figures published here only 19 boll weevils have survived the winter to the ton of moss compared with 127 last year at the Tullulah ex perimental station. This promoted sell ing of new crop months and probably increased the disposition to liquidate old crop contracts on the decline which extended to' 30.65 for March, 30.05 for July and 26.52 for October. Last prices were within a few points of the lowest. Southern spot advices were conflicting, btit a number of reports were received Indicating a less active demand and somewhat freer offerings In the in High Low Close March . 31.05 30.65 30.75 May .31.48 30.87 30.90 July .30.60 80.06 30.07 October ............26.93 26.52 26.52 December . .26.36 26.00 26.00 \F,W ORLEANS COTTON. NEW ORLEANS, March 8.—While new high levels for the season were made in the early trading in cotton to day, the market turned easy around the middle of the morning, felt consid erable selling pressure in the after noon and closed at the lowest of the day at net losses of 17 to 38 points, new crops being weaker than the old, May closed at 30.58 and October at 26.00 cents a pound. The opening was higher In sympathy with a better Liverpool than due, furth er claims that holders of March long contracts, were determined to force delivery of cotton and the unofficial statement by a government cotton spe cialist that there were no indications prices had reached the point where consumption was being checked. March rose to 31.18 and May to 30.97, all old crops making new high records. Octo ber at Its best traded at 26.42 or 6 points net higher. Old crops stood 18 to 24 points net higher at their best. The rise was checked by the report from Constantinople that the Turks were calling all Moslems to the colors and liquidation of March was caused by the circulation of a few notices, es timated at not over 1,000 bales. Better weather over the belt caused consider able selling but the greatest pressure was induced by telegrams from Tallu lah, La., to local brokers, stating that the boll weevil laboratory there had issued a statement that the ratio < live to dead weevils per one of Span ish moss examined was 19 against 127 a year ago. This was considered high ly favorable in connection with the new crop. DAILY COTTON TABLE. Port Movement.

NEW YORK, March 8.—Re-adjust ment of a weakened technical position was the reason generally given for to day's reaction in the stock pnarket. The recent sustained rise of prices, partic ularly ( in certain individuals invited profit taking and short selling which the fnarket was unable to digest except at a sacrifice of quoted values. Other influences, which are believed to have aided the decline, were the withdrawal of a stock exchange house from the Fay Taxicabs, Inc., promotion, marking up of the call money rate* from .4 % to 5 per cent., just before the close, and a sharp break in the Durant issues on the curb: * .... The recession of prices was checked by the bidding up of the independent steel shares, which is now about 82.75 above the 1922 high: established last September. Equipments enjoyed a temporary pe riod of strength but they soon yielded to selling pressure. American and Baldwin Locomotives dropped. Some of the other pouplar industrials which had been strong recently but which yield ed to pressure today were American Woolen, Stewart Warner Speedometer, Studebaker, Bosch Magneto, American Smelting, Kelly Springfield Tire, Unit ed States Rubber, Houston Oil, General Asphalt, Pacific Oil and California Pe- j troleum. j Rails were again sluggish and reac tionary, New York Central, Pere Mar quette, Great Northern preferred Lack awanna, Delaware and Hudson and Union Pacific dropping. Trading in foreign exchanges was quiet and irregular, demand sterling selling slightly above 84.70 and French francs hovering around 6.05 cents. The Norwegian kronen was under pressure, yielding 11 points to 18.-0 cents. ^ Day’s total sales, 1,302,000 shOTes. Twenty industrials averaged 104.70; net loss .53. H}gh 1923, 105.23; low 96.96.
