January broke and March, sold at 8.41. Each op tion sold a point lower than before this month. Wall St conditions are Sgainst the market and the strike continues' The strike Is now the main factor, If it was not for this, cotton would sell higher. As long as this lasts It will tend to prevent purchasing by consdnv ers, as well as by speculators, as there Is little Inducement to bay and take the risk. The market will be here all the season and we think that theVe Wlll be more advantageous times to trtj than ue present, onoura tae striae oe sewsu there would bean Immediate advance Ot coarse the fine weather Is helping the crop Immensely. ; The Chronicle states, that in a special Investigation Us correspondents report better condition! than prevailing In early September, and taken a a whole, better than last year. Many people from the 'Sooth say the crop will be larger than ' last year with late frosts. We are also Inclined to take this view. We are likely to have a crop of 10,500,000 this year, bat while this makes for uncertainty this Fall a crop of that size will not meet consump tion demands. For this reason we ad here to oar position on tho market la the long ran, bat regard immediate such an uncertain quantity that we would only bay on breaks. , i Crop Estimate. State Charter.

Raines, Oct It-Waile It to the view of such democratic leaden as Chalimia Simmons that the negro vote this year will be perhaps 11,000 Of t0,000, some persons express a very positive belief that It will not exceed 10,000. In some sections of the Bute some registrars are following what maybe termed a policy of exclusion of negro voters. This Is reprehended by Chairman Blnunons,who says it is really very rare. Ha says more negroes "wlH register under the grand father clause than Was expected. Those who can thus register are the deoeadentt of free negroes who could vote prior to 1835, those who have white mothers and those who are descended from negroes who prior to 1807 ia which they were qualified to vote. Chairman Simmons says the registration will be fairly heavy It will of be coarse larger than the vote. He urge Democrat to get as full a reg istration as possible and after that Is done to get as large a vote as possible There are persons who say that the smartest thing the negroes could do would be not to register or vote at all; that this would allay practically all the feeling against them, which arises oat of politics and their use of the franchise. It Is said by some cotton growers that the crop In this section will be as much 80 per cent. John 8. Cunningham says the tobacco crop will reach tnat figure. A charter Is granted by the State to the Atlas Table Company ot Lexington capital $10,000. - The Supreme Gonrt will this week hear arguments In appeals from the 8th dls. trlct.

It begins to look as though factors oatslde of the sit uation were of more Importance for the time being, than the cotton factor, Itself. One mast recognize this fact and make the best of It. However bullish we may be there Is no getting around the fact, that the coal strike grows more and more serious each day. If coal cannot be had to run mills, and mills are obliged to shot down In a great many cases, it Is manifestly oat of the ques tion to expect mills to bay cotton, that cannot bo used.
