IHE WORLD OF TRADE
Reports By Wire From the
Great Markets.
tn the present day of Atlantic cables
jid ocean greyhounds the two contl-
tents are very closely connected, and
the smallest of items bearing on the
great crops ot the West and South are
cafclitd to England, and often have an
effect contrary to whnt la Intended or
desired. Some time since the burning
of cotton gin houses in the Mississippi
Valley by the so-called regulators was
‘wired to Europe as an Indication that
the crop fCnust be a short one, and that
the producer was only seeking time to
demonstrate the fact, but the foreigner
accepted It as Indicating a larger crop
of cotton than the accounts would point
to, and argued that It the crop was a
short one an advance would follow
from the simple holding of the cotton,
but It the crop Is a large one the adop
tion of violent means to prevent its
movement to market would be a natural
sequence.
It Is generally admitted the cause
of prices will depend on receipts, snd
it Is painfully apparent that they are
now running higher than the most
sanguine txur anticipated. For In
stance, they were 54,000 bales on Satur
day, against 19,000 bales last week, and
20.000 bales the same day last year,
while on Monday they are estimated
at 40,009, against 36,000 the s-.me time
last year, and the current estimate for
this week ending Friday nlgpt Is 226.000
bales agaln\t 199.009 last year, while
the receipts at ull the ports from Sep
tember 1 to Friday night were 339,084
bales, ugalnat 372.061 bales last year.
In the same time the exports are 144,-
400 against 118,006 the same time last
year.
A correepondent In New York saps no
matter whether the crop be large or
small, the present course of prices will
be governed by the receipts for het
next week or two; that Is. men who
are long or'short of futures will buy
to cover or sell to realise, as they
rosy form an opinion from day to day,
| bales In Alabama. Mississippi and 'Lou
I lsiana. being 20 per cent.; 200.000 bales
in Arkansas, being 33 per cent.; 240,000
bales In the two C.irollnas. Georgta.
and Florida, being 15 per cent.
The total of the gains Is 800,000 bsles.
The yield In Texas Is estimated at
1,760,000 bales, being a loss of 400,000
bales. This deducted from the esti
mated gains will leave a net gain of
400.000 bales upon last year's yield of
*.400.000 bales. Tennessee will probably
make about the same crop as last sea
son.
CORRESPONDENTS’ REPORTS.
Some of the correspondents, whose
facilities for obtaining information are
excellent, and whose standing are of
the highest, do not think the gain In
Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana
will be over 15 per cent., while I am
Informed the commissioner of agricul
ture of Georgia estimates the yield of
Georgia will not exceed that of last
year. The receipts at the ports for
the week just ended were 20.000 bales
more than for the corresponding week
of last year and U Is probable that
this week’s receipts will be liberal.
Early receipts are no Indication of
the crop for a small crop may mature
quickly and be promptly marketed.
The visible supply of cotton in the
world, which means the stock of the
Inside mills. Is about 400,000 bales less
than a year ago.
Tiie otwk iiriu uy Euixrpcuii nTm
Aanerloam spinners ia far below last
year's, while tfhe oon&umpti'on in Eu
rope w as great as at any time last
year,and many BrtoWh miCls have matte
contracts for their entiTe product for
several months ahead.
Owing to the financial troubles our
own spinners ore bifring very sparing
ly. European views of the market are
bawd upon an American crop of 7,500,-
000 hales or more.
Liverpool merchants of standing
think that with an American crop of
7,250.000 bales, cotton would easily be
worth 5 pence tn that market. In this
opinion one of our oldest and most es
teemed cotton merchants concur and I
not only agree with him, but think the
resulting speculative purchases might
easily carry the price half a penny
(higher. In the matter of cotton prices
N**w York follmvB Liverpool and sets
the gait for all American markets.
Much interest is felt on the report
at the condition of the cotton crop on
October 1. to 'be issued by the depart
ment of agriculture. While I have not
even an acquaintance with the statis
ticians who makes up the department
report of the crops, I ocn satisfied the
October report will uhow a lower oon-
dfcton of the crop than any October
report since 1883.
All things considered the statistical
position of cotton 1* a strong one, and
If congress settles the money question
soon, and confidence Is restored, the
American spinner would enter the
market for the raw material, and prices
would advance. If. in the meantime,
any friend of the paper can give good
reason for lower prices, I beg he will
point it out through these columns.
A. F. Parrott.
The Telegraph’s night dispatches show
that the bank statement In New York
showed a much heavier increase in re
serves than was expected, but failed to
extend any iniluence on the stock mar
ket.
In Chicago the markets show no new
features. Grain fluctuated within nar
row limits. On provisions the receipts
were light and shipments liberal.
In cotton the liberal movement of the
crop appears to have been discounted by
the recent decline and rumors m>m
Washington of the repeal bill are more
cheerful, and the idea prevails that if
this measure is passed it will help the
general trade, cotton included.

NEW YORK COTTON LETTER.
By Direct Wire to Lyon & James.
New York 8ept. 30.—The Impression is
that there in so much short interest In
the market to make further selling ad
visable, notwithstanding fhe large move
ment present and prospective, and as the
weak long interest lias been pretty well
liquidated, It will require a considerable
amount of original selling • to enable
those who are already short to cover
their contracts, and unless a very con
siderable selling movement takes place,
r .ne short interest is more likely to cover
at higher prices than the *owest of yes
terday and today. The basts of bearish
feelings lately has been the anticipated
large receipts, bur'from now until Oct.
10 the shadow 6t the bureau will hung
over the market nnd as the Georgi v state
report is very unfavorable, showing con
siderable loss in condition for September,
it indicates a percentage of condition
for the bureau even below the ligures
we estimated a few days ago, namely,
70 against 73.4 on s>ept. 10.
Our Atlanta correspondent ays Georgia’s
state report makes the condition 5.17
lower than last month, nnd that the crop
in the state will not exceed that of lu
year; also that there is a total absence
of lop crop. The main thing necessary
now Is to infuse life into Liverpool and
start them Into buying spots. This will
stimulate the Southern spot markets, as
well as the Liverpool market, and thus
create a greater reeling of strength for
near and distant futures than has been
for the last 10 days.
We think the next bureau will give the
key to the course of prices for some time
to come, and if the repeal bill should
pass the senate, it would enable the
South, through improved linauc.al condi
tion generally, to hold much of its cot
ton that Just now has to be shipped as
promptly as it is bought in. with conse
quent depression In price, as last week
has evidenced. There is nothing now ex
iting more inimical to the cotton inter
ests of the South than the halting legis
lation at Washington on this most vital
question.
We close 6 higher than last night.
