English cloth mills arc talking about clos ing for a week, breads? the spinners are behind In the tilling of order* for yarn. A reader of The Manchester Guardian sends to that paper the following coiimiunl cation: It will lie admitted. 1 think, thu. Neill Bros, are entitled to respect, but were not even they out of their reckoning only ...J HJ not worth while to exam ine carefully their most recent forecast? Accuracy in au estimate depends on the acreage planted and the estimated yield |H*r acre, and the question la. are they justi fied .In taking 31,000,000 os the former and .45 as the latter? Was there not a consensus of opinion trlde their own circular of June Inst) that thjt acreage planted was 30,ooo.- 000, nnd Is not .45 bales per acre pructleslly a record yield? Was not .41 the highest yield per acre In the Are years between I he n unrrvicu mtnunir v* *»» mn ge planted nnd took £8,003,000 a* the age yield of-.40 bales per acre would gi over 11,000,000 bnles, while u Imd yield .35 would give 9,750,000. The soundness of their conclusions Is seen In the netuul crop figures, but assuming they are now right In * “ *“ ‘ tlie acreage planted, " taking 31,000.000 os the acreage pluntfri. why do they take .45 hales as the yield per acre this year and .40 last? Apply the lat ter to their own estimate of the acreage and 13,960,000 becomes 12,400,000—n most se rious difference In view of the present consumption.” New Orleans, Nov. 13.—Liverpool at Stip 8% up Is not a full response to our ad- vaneo.

Extreme re sults, no matter the manner In which they accrue, ore frequently tho point at which reverse conditions have their beginning. To many Intimately con nected with the cotton, trade such a belief carries deep-rooted conviction, and they view tho present advance rather In the light of a reactionary movement than as a direct result of a pressing demand for actual cotton. The reckless selling of contracts that has previously resulted so profitably, es|M»- claily when improvement* occur, has almost become n habit, and the spent- latlve interest tentatively resist any change of policy until they become un- de- NANE OF STOCK. ans&< Americas Sugar Anaconda. ...
