ESTIMATES OF TlfE CROP

; .1 and t'lgnres. - .. '
We hare been famished eith the
following extremely interesting nrtlele
upon tbe condition of the eottoa erop
and consumption, prepared especially
for the Fbess-tisitob by one or tbe
best posted students of the subject:
The present state of the future mar
ket is featureless. v. The small receipts
would have at a ay other time caused
a considerable advance. At present
ther are Ignored.
Bo. rope buys very Invle, export are
far behind as compared, with previous
years.-' Northern spinners have bees
taking lets cotton than last year, only
Southern spinners have increased their
taklnga. - Evidently they , did rigkt.
Sentiment has to do a lot,, but In tha
Ions run faota will be triumphant. A
great mistake has been the advance
daring the last uotoDer, . to marsat
advsnred too rapidly. Most of the
speoalatorc, but chiefly outsiders,
were bullish aad , dreaming oi tea
cents for January. , Bears idled the
balls up with cotton and made thea a
most successful attack. Thea tne po
litieal complications In Europe 'pre
vented the; market Jtom Improving,
Msnehester, whi was buying largrir
during the laat fes weeks, reports
bow a alower business. , ! i
Oontlnentsl spinners are, as it seems,
disposed to use their laet bale before
they bay again In . America. No
doubt they had filled up their ware
houses with 8 cent cotton laat year. ;i :
Every bearish point is brought to
tha sorfaoe at present. ' Let us have a
look, over the statistical position of
cotton. ' Neill estimates the crop
6,o00,000, the Einakcial Chronicle
7,000,000. Let ns say the crop will
turn out 0,750, (XX) btles. Bo- rar aaa
been marketed 8,550,000, Taking the
average percentage of the. crop mar
keted up to November 80, daring the
laet . twelve year the present crop
would be 6.800,000. A leading hoose
tn New York claima that a much
greater percentage of the current crop
hat been marketed than tha average
amount of tha eropc for the laat ten
fears up to thi date. ..

called Invisible supply. Atf
Ea recum. I wish to point oat mat
the visible supply at ths end of ths

spinners only 8,050.000 bales, whilst
li.it year they need B.OUO.UUU bales
It is estimated that America will nta
8,000,000 bales sgala. This means.
that onlr 8.700.000 balea could be si
ported, Ther has aster beea a de
crease of 48 per seat ia the exports
Cotton will be exported, be it oa
direct orders from European apinners,
be it as hedges aa-ainstsalea ia futures.
Should tha srop not cteeed tne ngur
of 8.750,000, (for which there are ao
indications) there wilt be a- very keea
cOmpctltloa between- exporter aad
domestic spinnsrs for th last 1,000,000
of this crop. ;v .'v
It I quite natural that splaaera are
keeping aloof from the market wbea
tha pries is above 8 cents, they will
us all their atocks ap to make tha
bolder of eottoa weak, butoaaliy taey
will be eompelled to boy aad if the
holder is la a position to wait, thaa he
will be able to dictate th prloe. .
The iadlcatioac are that the demand
will iacreaae after aextr year. It la
good that at preeent thi pries does
not advaao eonslderabjy, otherwise
the farmer would rush fihelr last bale
to market and we would ae a collapse
a oa October 81st.' W need 8 gradual
steady improvement,' ao boom, the
outsider will lway pay th bill la a
loaa aad th speculator puts Ms money
in his pocket. j. v'-
Another noteworthy matter is tbe
following: North Carolina will pro
duce thla saasoa about 838,000 (average
of the two estimates, Lsthm,Aleisader
Co. and Nelll), The mllla la this
State will use about 375,030 bales.
Thla would leave 50,000 for export.
North Carolina,: however.; "exports at
least 135,000 bales, flach a 8nrc
would leave the State silaners 75,000
bales short, and they wil be compelled
to boy their cotton elsewhere. , K.
