CHICAGO CAR LOT9.
Today. Tomor.
New Orleans, March 26.—The census
department of the government has
given ua tta flguren on the crop, uml
the record mode by this department
st erna to wnrrunt tt great deal of can*
fldence In the estimate published on
Wednesday. There Is no question but
that this lius been one of the most dif
ficult years In cotton history in which
to arrive nt definite conclusions, or to
maintain for any length of time a de
cided opinion on the market; the situ
ation has been so full of paradoxes;
however, with the alxe of the crop pret
ty well determined, when we consider
nil the existing facts concerning the
rot ton goods trade of the world, so far
as the present crop Is concerned, we
can see nothing on which to base low-
price Ideas. It seems Impossible that
the cotton manufacturers of* tl»F world
will be content to allow their reserve*
to sink below what they were at the
beginning of the year. In the face of
the rapid Increase of splndlen and with
the enormous amount of unaptnabte
stuff In our present supply. We do not
believe the present crop Is more than
sufficient to meet requirements At the
present rate of spinners' takings we
believe our visible supply will be culled
of everything that can be used before
the end of the season, and If .this
should »>e the case extreme high prlc.ea
would be certain to follow. The prog-
ress made with the next crop will have
much to do with the course of prices,
but as we have polntetl out l>efi»re.
should any accident happen to the new
crop, the situation would become the
most acute In history, and we, there
fore. regard It a* extremely haxardous
to sell cotton at present prices.

The Chicago Record Herald: Out of the

that many who were skeptical of hut dam

The testimony, however, was by no means

scouting the Idea that bugs were doing

yesterday that the damaga had been se

COTTON TALK FROM
EDWARD MOY8E A CO.
New York, Mureh 26.—The census
bureau tins ttdd ue what the crop
amounts to, and that Influence has be
come a negligible quantity. Our atten
tion must now he fixed on Itn distribu
tion. ami on the lessons that may be
drawn from the manner In which the
trade absorbs It. Comparisons are
necessarily made with the bumper crop
of two years ago. and the first thing
that strikes ua Is that Europe has taken
to date, that Is. within less than seven
months of this season. 650,000 bales
more than In the big year The next
feature, and a more striking oqe. Is
that American mills have taken during
the same period 650.000 more than two
years ago 8uch figures are little
known, and need to be studied well to
underatatul their meaning. Within
seven months, the trade hus absorbed
1,300.000 bales more than taken out of
the biggest crop ever grow n No won
der the wisest people In the market
predict much higher prices before the
end of the season, especially If any
danger shoulfl threaten the new crop
almut to be planted. The figures we
have given may startle you, but pon
der them well, and kindly let us know
whut you think of them.
