Washington--Nov 5--US non-farm payrolls rose 310,000 in October, close to the market expectation of an increase of 300,000. Analysts widely expected a rebound from the job losses caused by Hurricane Floyd last month, but a Labor Department aide said the only effect was the addition of about 7,000 construction jobs for cleaning up storm damage. Average hourly earnings rose only 0.1%, below the consensus estimate of a 0.3% increase. The jobless rate fell to 4.1% in October, below the consensus for it to be unchanged at 4.2%.
