Exports to date are well orer |L»00,000, and this feature la cansing some alarm among aptnnera on this sldo who have heavy commitments to till. The weather baa been moat unseasonable, in the At lantic states, all reports Indicate that the early cotton baa lieeu killed by the cold weather and that large areas will have to l»e replanted, and nt liest that the crop In that section will be late. Reports of poor seed aud scarcity of labor are nlao quite general. In the western belt, the lack of moisture hna done much to retard the prog ress of the cron, and, taking the crop as a whole, the conditions are far from aatlafnc- tory. The bull crowd apneara to lie making headway with 4helr manipulation of crop months, and we continue to cau- fiaire that traders shoul. _ . atlons on legitimate conditions, nnd not grow too enthusiastic on eltbVr side.
