Inerea sed Cotton Acreage.

RALEIGH, N. c., March 18.-It has
been the impression for a year that
the farmers of this section would re-
duce the acreage of cotton this year
25 to 40 per cent. The rise in price a
few months ago, however, has served
to restore confidence and although all
declare there is no money in cotton
under 10 cents pound it is evident
the once premeditated reduction of
acreage will lot be as great as con-
templated.

Control the Turf.
New YORK March 1S.-It begins to
look as though the coming rulers of
the turf are Richard Croker and Nc
Hall f. Dryer. 1t is intimated that
the two men have formed partner
ship or combination or each will have
q powerful stable and will employ
talent to take charge of his valuable
charges. The big stakes appear to be
at their mercy, for ii their own horses
are not able to win they will buy
others that can win. Gossip say that
these two men will expend $500, 900 in
buying horses that are dangerous"
or which will interfere with the sue
cess of others. In this manner Croker
and Dryer expect to control the turf.
