NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-r-I increase my
estimate of this year’s American cot
ton crop to 13,000.000 bales. Including
llnters. I believe this quantity to havo
been certainly grown, although possibly
It may not be marketed. I believe that
the forthcoming ginners* ‘report, which
will show the quantity of cotton gin
ned up to the 13th of December, will
fully sustain this view. There was
ginned In the twenty-two working days
between the 18th of October and 14th
of November, 1904, approximately
3.300,000 bales. This Is at the rate of
150,000 bales a day. During the same
period last year there was ginned
3,100.000 from the 14th of November to
the 13th of December. There are twen
ty-four working days, allowing, for
Thanksgiving. If during these twenty-
four working days there shall be- gin
ned only half as much per (ttetn as
during the previous period the apunint
ginned would be 1,800,000 which added
to tho amount previously ginned name
ly, 9,786,000, would give us approti
mately 11,690,000 bales ginned up to the
13th of December. This, I think, will
prove to be conservative and possibly
an underestimate of the actual figures
and If this Is 90 per cent of the crop
the indicated yield is 12,873,333 bales,
without allowing anything for the lint-
ers. Last year only 86.8 per cent had
been ginned by December 11th and the
year previous 84 per cent The Chron
icle of last Saturday say* that picking
is still In progress in many sections
and I nm supplied with photographs
of a number of unpicked fields In the
South which I shall shortly publish nnd
which give indisputable evidence of
the fact that a lurge amount of cotton
is still unpicked.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK, Dec. Until the after
ion there wns a disposition on the part
the local trade to buy cotton for a sub
stantial rcnctfori, based on the small of
ferings and the belief that the Southern
market would not weaken. By that, time
they had accumulated a considerable line
long cotton nnd when the selling came
from the bear brokers, there whs littlo
resisting powrtr. At tho same time, tho
Southern markets showed a sharp reduc
tion In quotations and selling orders came
In from Wall street houses. This combi
nation was too much for the small buying
power, though the New England “*
bought slowly, on a scale _..
purchases were only on h moderate scale,
not being sufficient to absorb tho heavy
selling under this pressure, tho market
slowly declined. It wns. however, notine-
able that there was very little distressed
long cotton on the market.

NEW YORK. Dee. 6.—While the loeol
