Cotton Breaks Heavily—The Bureau Report Indicates a Yield Much Above Expectations. Cotton was quite active, but ruled very weak. With the exception of a small spurt on Monday morning, due to the changed front of certain large speculative interests in New York commented on here last week, and a quick spurt of about 30 points on Wed nesday caused by the completed cen sus report, the market tended heav ily downwards. The decline, had amounted to about 90 points before the appearance of the bureau report on Saturday. When this came out and was found to entirely confirm the larg est run of crop estimates, the mar ket went into a panic, and in the remaining forty-five minutes of trad ing prices fell 50 points more. At the close, January had gotten down to Bc, the net loss for the week, be ing about 135 to 140 points. A decline in cotton of nearly 2c a pound in two weeks and amounts to a great disaster to the South. As only about 6,000.000 bales have so far come into sight, and, much of that is yet unsold, evidently more than one-half of the crop remains to be marketed, and that cotton is now worth about $lO a bale less than it was in the middle of November. At the opening of 'the season, when comparatively few people, looked for much, if any, over 11,000,000 bales, the writer ventur ed the prediction that by the first part of December, when the bureau report should come out. hardly anyone would be estimating the yield below 12,000,- 000, and that something like a panic in the market must necessarily en sue. If these views have not been unremittingly insisted upon during the intervening three months, it was due to a reluctance to even appear to be enacting the role of a would-be wreck er of the South’s greatest market. During the last two or three weeks, however, the writer, in this weekly review as well as in many private let ters, has repeatedly and clearly stat ed the assured conviction of an im minent big move in the market. The move has come, and none of those who followed the advice given has any cause to regret having done so. For some time now the market is going to be very active, with speculation fast and furious, and there are abundant opportunities for very satisfactory re sults from wise and cautious invest ments. Grain and provisions worked firmer, and close somewhat higher, but with out any very decided movement. There is soon going to be something much more lively going on in these mar kets, also: but just at present cotton is the cynosure of all eyes, especially in this part of the world. Wm. T. Williams. Savannah, Dec. 5, 1904. GROSS EARNINGS OF SOUTHERN ROADS. The following figures give the gross earnings to latest report of the rail- COTTON. New York, Dec. 3.—The Agricul tural Department estimates this year’s cotton crop at 12,162,000 bales. It is officially stated that this estimate does not include the production of linters, which is probably not less than 3,000,- 000 bales. The figures, therefore, may be accepted as indicating a minimum of 12,500,000 and as in the case of rec ord-breaking yields the department has never failed to underestimate crop by from 10 per cent, to 15 per cent., it is my opinion that for practical purposes to-day’s crop estimate may be taken as Indicating a commercial crop of at least 12,750,000 bales, and possibly 13,- 000,000. With such a supply it is hard to say how low cotton will go. It in dicates a visible surplus at the end of the year of at least 2,000,000 bales of American cotton, and such a supply has never failed in the past to carry prices considerably below 7 cents, and sometimes as low as SV& cents. I see no reason why history should not re peat itself, and advise holders to sell as promptly as possible and before spinners fully appreciate the tremen dous advantage they now occupy in being able to nfake practically theii* own prices for such cotton as they may have yet to purchase.

While the contents generally cannot be said to relate specifically to Christmas, the Christmas spirit per vades the magazine from cover to cover. An article of an odd type is concern ed with the work being done by Mr. Louis Akin, an artist who for many months has dwelt among the Hopi In dians in Arizona. The illustrations of this article are among the most strik ing the Pilgrim has ever published. In fiction the Christmas number df the Pilgrim is especialy rich. A strik ingly illustrated and swiftly interest ing railroad story Is entitled, “The Flight of 999,” and Hopkins J. Moore house, its author, proves himself to be a writer of quite unusual power. The Pilgrim Magazine Company, Bat tle Creek, Mich. The December number of Town Topics has for its leading story “A Fifth Avenue Incident” by Edgar Sal tus. It is a story that will be read with considerable interest. Saltus is an attractive writer and has many ad mirers. There are a number of other stories, several poems of merit and a lot of other bright things. Town Top ics Publishing Company, 452 Fifth avenue, New York. The special features of the Ameri can Review of Reviews for December, are an article by Walter Wellman on “The United States and the World’s Peace Movement;” an account of the work of the Merchant Marine Com mission, by Winthrop L. Marvin; brief character sketches of four men of the month, —William Barclay Parsons, by Nicholas Murray Butler; David Row land Francis, by Frederick M. Crun den; George B. Cortelyou, by Louis A. Ooolidge; and William L. Douglas, by H. L. Wood; an account of the re cent movement for the betterment of rural conditions In North Carolina, by Clarence H. Poe; a forecast of the com ing Forestry Congress at Washington, by H. M. Suter; "Modern Picture- Book Children,” by Earnest Krfauftt, with reproductions of the work of re cent illustrators of childhood, and an account of the remarkable trials In November of the electric locomotive built for the New York Central Rail road. The departments are up to their usual high standard of merit. Avery attractive number is the Hol iday Book number of the Outlook. Even the cover and advertisements are attractive. Its articles are of a high standard of merit. Those who read it will get some interesting 1 informa tion about books and the writers of them. The pictures of the writers mentioned are an additional attraction, as people like to know about authors whose books they read. The Outlook Company, 287 Fourth Ave., New York. The December number of the World's Work makes a wide sweep of the activities of the United States for the past year, covering not only the most significant facts in our develop ment, but showing further our rela tions with other countries, and the re gard in which we are held by them. The Illustrations for this number have been chosen with exceptional care, and are among the finest that have ever appeared in any magazine. The hope ful financial outlook is summed up in "The Sound Revival of Business.” The Secretary of the Navy, the Sec retary of the Treasury, the Secretary of the Department of Agriculture, and the Postmaster General have each con tributed a resume of the work of his department for the past year. Lord Curzon, Viceroy of India, describes the enormous difficulties encountered by his administration, and paints a brilliant future for the British Eastern Empire In the "Future of British India." "The Universal Spirit of Christmas" consid ers In its larger aspects the signifi cance of the Christmas gift, and Mr. H. W. Lanier's notable series of arti cles on Insurance Is continued with a discussion of industrial life Insur ance, entitled "Billions In Ten Cent Insurance." Doubleday, Page & Cos., 133-137 East Sixteenth street, New York. It Is doubtful if among the Christ mas magazines there Is one more at tractive than McClure's. Its cover ar rests attention and its articles and Illustrations are Just about as good as they can be. In looking over this number It Is easy to understand why McClure's bas secured such a large circulation. The reason is it merits the confidence and patronage of the public. Some of Its articles have un doubtedly helped to raise the country to a higher plane of morality. 8. 8. McClure Cos., Twenty-third street and Fourth avenue. New York city. CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RAILWAY.

A well known cotton buyer, who rep resents one of the largest cotton houses of this city in Georgia, South Carolina, Florida and parts of Alabama, was in Savannah yesterday, and talked inter estingly of the crop estimate and of the conditions as he has found them in the country districts of his terri tory. He believes that the interior holders are not only in a position to take care of their cotton until the effect of the recent slump in prices has been over come, but that they also are alive to the advisability of so doing and will take steps to prevent the market being flooded with the staple just now, which would have the effect of maintaining the present basis of prices or sending them even lower. He thinks that the remainder of the crop will be marketed in a way that will maintain prices somewhere In the vicinity of 8 cents for good middling. Referring to the probable crop of Geor gia he said that in his opinion it will be something like 1,800,000 bales. Sa vannah, he thinks, will receive fully 1,750,000 bales before the season is over.
