e<Mt«Mt.ws.us.t«Mt«i*i<Sw<a.t<aw<s«nswB*uswa«na«isw*«i»u»naw<a«,«a.r :
Briefly, I am a bull on cotton
present for the following reasons:
First—The figures of spinners’ tak
ings now being published from week
to week Indicate a rate of consumption
far larger than I had previously antici
pated, and so large as to insure al
most a complete exhaustion of exist
ing supplies by the end of the season,
unless, Indeed, the consumption' shall
be checked by a radical advance in
prices.
Second — Because during the past
five years the South Jias only onee pro
duced a crop of over 11,000,000 bales,
which was fn a sense a “freak of na
ture," resulting in the most marvel
ous concentration of favorable condi
tlons ever known In the history ol the
trade.
Third—Because It is becoming more
and more evident that the advance in
the price of labor and its diversion
from agriculture to manufacturing and
Industrial pursuits Is rendering It al
most Impossible for the South much
to Increase Its acreage next year.
Under these circumstances, inas
much as there seems but a slim possi
bility of any such crop, I believe cot
ton must either go to a price that will
check consumption or Induce an ulti
mate Increase in production. The
lateness of the crop, consequent upon
the bad weather recently reported, is
but an incident In the situation which
will serve still further to intensify the
action of the influences above men
tioned. THEO. H. PRICE.
Interest in cotton is rapidly shift
ing to the new crop positions. Trad
ing in October and December is now
quite active. If the market is a pur
chase, these are the months to buy.
Liverpool closed 7 dywn on near po
sitions and 6 lower on distant ones.
The new crop promises to get off
badly.
Reports from Texas say the balance
of the crop there 1b stubbornly held at
a half-dent above the market. May
not be sold at all.
Watch the weather In May. It is
Impossible to make a big crop on a
wet May.
A good deal of talk is still heai£ of
incorporating East Albany. The City
Council left the burg across the Flint
out of the fold when the limits were
extended last year, and the matter<waB
considered definitely settled, though it
may be reopened In the not distant fu
ture. It seems to be definitely under
stood that EaBt Albany will Incorpor
ate on her own hoolj: If not taken In
by this city. t
