TUB POTTOX I HOI - HU.POUT. The government's monthly e-otton crop report, t .—ll*st ye-terelay, was som*'What of a surprise. It was thought thwt It would show a- small a crop a some of tits previous reports of th# season.* I showed a larger one, giving an estimate of 10,100.010 bales. There w.* a very con siderable *!*•* line In I lie prl' e of futures, and a light decline In the price e>f spot cotton. It r**ems that the government suceevel e,l In k* e|*tng its re-i*ort secret tin’ll the time for making tt public. It vmis sail than Ihe subs’.ance of the report was of fered on Saturday to ,p culators In N'-w York. It was doubtless offered by som one, who *ll.l not know whst tt was. If the rrfeurt had lte**n known the rnark* t would have been lower than It wa* when th*v report was made public. It is doubtful If the estlmat# of th# government as to the lie of the crop will he generally a .epte.l Hut few of the popular estimates have placed tho crop ataevo 9.75(1.009 hales. 11 V ,-ome of Ihe tiesl informed men In the e-otteai trade- It Is thought the crop will lav below Still, a good deal of confidence la felt In lit# government's r#|iort, and it will have a very bled iiiltucncc on 'he nur k#l for several iliys. Hut. a-lmlttlng that tlie crop Ir a iatge at, the gov.-rnment’* re|>ort mikes tt, the supply will hardly be equal to the demand. Owing to tho short crop tact year It would seem a* if Uie ib mand alintil 1 be sufficient to bring th# price up to 10 cent* a pound.

Hls no more than wha* t* duo them, therefore, that Savannah people should giv# them an opportunity of filling tnelr Chrlatm.it orders. Heretofore there has been too much of rending away to New Y'ork. Fhlladelphia. Boston and else where for holiday good* There is no good reason for It. Many of 4h#s# who send #0 other cttle* for their holiday sup plies are persons who practically get their living out of Ihe Savannah merchants and tradesmen.

Oov. Thomas of Colorado lias refused to honor a requi sition of Gov. Mount of Indiana, ostensi bly for the reason that there is some technical def#i t In (he requisition papers, but really because Oov. Mount refused to honor the requlstt.on of Ihe Governor of Keneucky for Mr Taylor, who 1* n refuge# from the latter state. This Is an unfortunate Mate of affairs, not only be cause It tends to defeat the end* of Jus tice tn tlie eases In question, but also be cause, us Oov. Thomas Intimates, other governors may follow the course pursue! by Gov. Thimiiis, If called upon by Gov- Mount to giv* up fugitives from Justice Gov. Mount is quoted as saying that the reason lie refused to give up Mr. Taylor was that h# dirt not believe thit the lat ter coukl have a fvlr trial In Kentucky But. what right has h* to ilecirte whether a man accused of crime In Kentucky, and who Is a fugitive in Indiana, can have 1 fair trial tn the former state or not? Is It not th# fact that Gov. Mount prot# ts Mr Taylor from arrest simply because the latter Is a Republican? If Mr Taylor were a Demo rat would there be any hes itation on the part of Indiana's chief ex e. utiv# to give him up to the officers of Ken tie ky when proper papers were pre sented for him? Mr Taylor 1- charged with being an *c. rejsory to th# murder of Gov. Goebel. Theri must be considerable proof against him or else he would not hesitate to re turn to Kentucky and face his a -cusers It is hardly probable that Ihe courts and Juries of Kentucky are so prejudiced 'ha* Mr. Taylor could not get a fair trial It Is true, th re Is great bitterness be ta-run the political parl.es In that t*4c. No rlouht there arc many Democrats there, who. believing Mr. Taylor gull y. would like to see him punished hut It Is doubtful If there are any I> moerat* who want him subjected to punishment of any kind if he Is not guilty. lint because Gov. Mount is doing w rong In not honoring Ihe requisition for Mr. Taylor. Il doesn't follow tisst O- v. Thomas is Justified In refu.-ltig to allow Indiana fu gitives from Justice found In Colorado. 10 I.# token ba. k to the slate tn which they were t ndi. led If Gov. Thomas’ example should bo gi nerally followed, it w ould not be neecssary for criminals to seek an asy lum in foreign states with which we have no treaty for the return of fugitives from Justice. They would be safe from arrest by simply crossing slate lines. Italian murderers and other criminals are safe In ihe United Stales, for the time being The Italian government has no money available with which to pay for the transportation of criminals from this country to that, hence extraditions or# temporarily of no avail. The other day a self-ooglfeased Hnllaa murderer walked scot-free out of a New York police sta tion because Ihc It illan government re fused to pay the expense of transporting him lo Italy (or trial.
