The Cotton Crop z stimate is Again Low
ered--What are the Figures ?

NEW ORLEANS. Nov. 23.-Henry M.
Neil has just issued his circular on the
condition of thecottOn crop He lowers
his estimate to $500, 600 bales, and
says:
During the last two weeks We have
received careful and complete reports
from aim )st the entire cotton area. and
the unanimous opinion is that the
shortage is so great as to amount to a
real calamity.
These reports do not come from the
planters only, but also from the people
who are looking for cotton for the pur.
pose of Ouying it, and whose interest it
is to exaggerate the prospect of the
supply. and not to underestimate il.
We have now reached a period when
, receipts are always found to be gov
erned principally by the size of the
crop, as the time has passed when the
lateness of maturity has any effect.
The weather generally has been
favorable for the transportation facili-
ties, which are, of course, greater
every year and prices have advanced
| have expected or been satisfied with
had they had good crops.
There is therefore, no possible ex-
PLANTATION of the light movement, but
one that the crop is very short.
Perhaps the planters are holding
back somewhat. They must be doing
so or the crop could not be eve 6. 5OO,-
600. But does any suppose that at
these prices the planters could hold
back if their crops were large, and yet
the port receipts to November 18th,
inclusive, are just equal to those of
| 1886-7-a $500, 600 crop-and 800, 0O0

NEWARK. N J Nov. 20.-KatIe Asst

Avenue. has just been swindled out of
$3.50 by q z, psy enchantress She
found out that Katie had an ambition
to marry a rich man, and she began to
play on her weakness. She promised,
If she we're welt paid, to produce the
wanted husband The girl agreed to
remunerate her handsomely, and the
gypsy gave her a charm" consisting
of a cheap ring, with a green stone. If
she wore that, carefully wrapped in
ribbon, in her left stocking tor four
days and placed it under her pillow for
four nights, the rich nan who was to
marry her would be revealed TO her
Katie gladly parted with $3.50 for the
charm and the promise, and ~lnnOcently
Obeyed instructions. OF course the eX-
pected revelation was rot made. At
the end of the fourth day the gypsy
was on hand again. She could not
understand why her charm had not
worked She would replace it with
one that never failed for $50. The
foolish hOusemaid handed over the
cash. and for 1t received a bottle of
cOlOred water and a red cotton bag.
For nine days she was to carry these
one in each stocking, to assure the
presence of the rich stranger, Katie
wore the new charms for three weeks,
bur, of course, without result.
Then she told her experience to some
friends. They opened her eye s for her,
and the police were notified to hunt
for the gypsy They have not found

SAN Francisco, Cal, Nov. 20
Dozens of policemen are on guard in
Chinatown to night to keep the high
binders societies from indulgiT e in
one of their periodical battles. Two
lives must be sacrificed to atone for
the two murders of last Friday and
Saturday.
The police this afternoon dispersed
an excited crowd and chased four men
into the headquarters of the Ong Yek
murder society. Each man carried
two navy revOlvers and a wicked
looking knife and wore a mail shirt
made of steel links The coats of mail
protected the wearers from their necks
to their knees, and weighed over twenty
pounds each.
Another Chinaman, wearing a

belonged to these societies and the feuo

fresh leaves, with the result of Danish
ing the last insect and enabling the
