Current, Of the LIST inst, thus retersjto the
forthcoming crop Of sugar:
q "With respect to the crop, it is quite certa in
that the grinding season, on the whole, has
been very uniayorable one thus far, the wea-
thsr during large portion OF the time having
been showery, with IA unseasonably low tenn
perature, and these drawbacks, added to the
disadvantages which the crop labvred under in
the early part Of the season, and which have
heretofore been referred to have tended 10 re-
duce the estimates much below the product of
last year, which product was less than that Of
the year previous in the large amount of 1922
900 hhds."
A correspondent Of the New Orleans Delta
at st. james, La, writes under date of Novom-
her 90:
awe are having most unfayorabls weather
for sugar making, and consequently many
planters have stopped. There is so little cane
left in the fslds that we do not fear the cold

CosaRKss STILL UNoReAsIzEp,-Tbe Baltimore
qua Of yesterday remarks in regard to Congress that
the house OF Representatives Tuesday, after six
more ballotings, had again to adjourn without elect.
ing Speaker There still seems to be desire with
some to Introduce the plurality principle in the cleo
uon put others Of the same party appear fear it,
though their candidate, Mr.. Banks, free SOIL of
Mass.,) still holds his los 10B votss In 1910 tks
plurality rule was not adopted until the 22d of De.
cember, when the Democratic vote OF Mr.. Cobb had
dWindled down from l03 votes 10 2, while Mr.. VIM
throps had gone up to 1902; but ON the first vote af
tor the adoption Of this rule, Cobb took the lead
and was elected on the fourth ballot afterwards by
100 votes against 90 for Mr. Winthrop. IL is TO be
hoped that the parties will have devised some way
Tor ending the controversy on coming together to-
day.
A telegraphic dispatch on the night of tho nth
Inst, says ;-rhe conferences held tonight are un-
derstood to be unsuccessful in securing additional
votes for Mr., Banks. The impression now is that
he has reached tho highest psnt OF support for the
speakership, and that Mr.. Pennington or Mr. Fuller
will loom up In larger proportions tomorrow Twelve
or more Pcnningtonian members held their meet =
ing tonight to arrange their programme for
row. Matters relating to the contest are now yerv
much confused, nor can the most distant idea bs
formed respecting the Ultimate result.
