account on the assumption that fif
teen millions or about that is more
probable for the crop than the of
ficial figures recently issued. The re
ports are very aptly described as the
submarines of the cotton trade and
their forecasts have often in the past
been less close to final facts than
some private estimates but the in
formation on which they are based
is derived from more numerous and
presumably more reliable sources
than that of any private authority
and therefore possesses a correspond
ingly higher degree of nntcedent
probability. There is at least no solid

gested by the'report ais the'present
expectancy. For anything the aver
age seller can possibly know final
figures may* be half a million to a
million less and anyway a crop of
fourteen to fourteen and a half is
not likely to provide any burdensome
surplus after requirements have been
filled. The market looks and acts
Tower but the .trade continues to buy
in moderate quantity at different
stages of the decline and technically
the position is daily gaining strength.
