outlook for the buslnees ot cotton manufacturing In this country excellent that tho stocks of cotton goods on hand have been greatly reduced and that but hi known as the statistical position of cot ton is very strong Tho worlds vUlble supply of cotton as compiled last week by the Financial Chronicle wns 763479 bale less tbtin on the same week in October 180C 091616 bales less than on the tore sponding date In 1896 and 807j7C bates less than In 1891 As the United Stntes produce nearly all the cotton in the world about sixsevenths of this defieliiuy la lobe credited to tho American stocks The decllna In the price ot cotton has been caused primarily by tbo belief that tho crop which will come Into sight during tho cotton yoar begun em Soptjuibir 1 will be an enormous one It Is known that tbo land devoted to cotton growing In this country this year Is 21000000 aero an lncpcase of 1000000 acres over last year While the weather conditions have not been entirely favorable during the Beason they have been generally so Nearly three fourths ot tho crop hisj been picked tho operation having been facilitated by the unusual wxsrmth and dryness of tho fall months and there Is no doubt whatever that a very largo amount of cotton will come upon tho market before the 1st of September 1898 The cstlnnto cf ltt euan tlty now wiving the greatot Influence vpOn the trade is Uut of Mr Henry Neill tto head of a prominent cotton exporting llim In Liverpool who has been rcma iably fortunate In his crop estimates for he Inst two or threo years Mr Nellls house Is nn English one having brunches in Liverpool and London and his estimates hiivo weight with Bpgllsh buyers of cotton Ho declares that this years cotton crop will be at leasf 10300000 bales and mny run Into something like 11500000 bales If any such unprecedented figures aro to bo realized the present low price ot cotton Is rfusorable Another depressing Influence equally as great Is tho hnrd times ttat have come upon tho English spinners this being duo to the plague famine and financial troubles In India and other countries whero tho product of English locmt Is sold As twothirds of tho American cot that tho crop will bo a largo one conservative men In the cotton Undo arc skeptical about Ho reaching nny such vast quantity as Mr Ncllt predicts Tho amount of cot ten ttat can ho raised from a given quantity of land varies with the character of the soil In some bottom lands of exceptional fertility In Louisiana und Texas a bale of cotton to tho aero cin bo grown This Is practically the maximum amount per acre the minimum being very remote froi this It Is cstablshcd that tha nvcrago growth throughout the whole of our cotton bolt varies between a bale to two and fourtenths acres and a halo to three acres of land the first named figure being that of a year when tho weather conditions wore uniformly favorable Assuming that tho nvcrsgu rnto of production this year will bo the highest on iccord a crop would bo gathered of barely 10000 000 bales Ellison a Liverpool statistician of great prestige who In a lending authority on tho consumption of cotton nnd tho worlds cotton stocks estimates tho American crop this year at 1410000 talcs other estimates on this de of tho water being from 8000000 to 10000000 bales If tho crop moots Mr Nellls expectations It will not only bo the grtatest of cottcn crops but will havo been produced with a far greater avcragu yield to tho aero than htis been shown In the pisl It must bo sild nisi that the amount of cotton which has come Into 6 ght during tho present vear thus far docs not Justify the prophecy of a yield from 10000000 to 11000000 bales Since tho beginning of the cotton year 323000 fewcir balca ot cotton havo rome Into sight than last year in the samo period when tho whole years crpp reached but 8750000 bales though It should b6 added thit the early movement is often decep tive and that tho movement of this year Is about equal to that cf 1S31 whon 9100 000 bales ot cotton tho record crop waa grown There Is no doubt that tho movement has been retarded by tho yellow fever quarantining at New Orleans and In many other Southern cities Frosts will probably end tho yellow fever however with in a month from now and then If tho amount of cotton coming forward does not Increaso corMderably and remain Increased wo bellevo that thero will be general discredit fMr Nellls estimate Sooner or later tho lucky crop guessers at tho beginning of tho harvest whether of cotton wheat corn or nny other staplo whatever their conservatism
