New Orleans, March 26.—The census department of the government has given ua tta flguren on the crop, uml the record mode by this department st erna to wnrrunt tt great deal of can* fldence In the estimate published on Wednesday. There Is no question but that this lius been one of the most dif ficult years In cotton history in which to arrive nt definite conclusions, or to maintain for any length of time a de cided opinion on the market; the situ ation has been so full of paradoxes; however, with the alxe of the crop pret ty well determined, when we consider nil the existing facts concerning the rot ton goods trade of the world, so far as the present crop Is concerned, we can see nothing on which to base low- price Ideas. It seems Impossible that the cotton manufacturers of* tl»F world will be content to allow their reserve* to sink below what they were at the beginning of the year. In the face of the rapid Increase of splndlen and with the enormous amount of unaptnabte stuff In our present supply. We do not believe the present crop Is more than sufficient to meet requirements At the present rate of spinners' takings we believe our visible supply will be culled of everything that can be used before the end of the season, and If .this should »>e the case extreme high prlc.ea would be certain to follow. The prog- ress made with the next crop will have much to do with the course of prices, but as we have polntetl out l>efi»re. should any accident happen to the new crop, the situation would become the most acute In history, and we, there fore. regard It a* extremely haxardous to sell cotton at present prices. aUlt# MRS.

New York, Mureh 26.—The census bureau tins ttdd ue what the crop amounts to, and that Influence has be come a negligible quantity. Our atten tion must now he fixed on Itn distribu tion. ami on the lessons that may be drawn from the manner In which the trade absorbs It. Comparisons are necessarily made with the bumper crop of two years ago. and the first thing that strikes ua Is that Europe has taken to date, that Is. within less than seven months of this season. 650,000 bales more than In the big year The next feature, and a more striking oqe. Is that American mills have taken during the same period 650.000 more than two years ago 8uch figures are little known, and need to be studied well to underatatul their meaning. Within seven months, the trade hus absorbed 1,300.000 bales more than taken out of the biggest crop ever grow n No won der the wisest people In the market predict much higher prices before the end of the season, especially If any danger shoulfl threaten the new crop almut to be planted. The figures we have given may startle you, but pon der them well, and kindly let us know whut you think of them. Ci-EARANCEt. iram-T-a— Wheat busbrle. «..ni bushels, rum 7<* <*«j bushel*. <«f* * -Is.
