SOUTHERN GLEANINGS.
The Cotton Outlook.


The New Orleans Picayune, comment
ing on the cotton situation and outlook,
says:
- The existing low price is based on
the belief entertained by spinners that the
present supply is sufficient for all needs, and
that acreage for the next season promises to be
so increased to remove all anxiety as to the
future supply.
Win the producers substantiate the predic-
tions OF spinners with respect to the future
supply by increasing the area devoted to cot
ton. or will they profit by the lessons of past
seasons and refrain from increasing the acre
age until the improvement in the value
of cotton warrants such course, 1t
must be admitted that the advices from
Texas rather point 10 an increase
in the area to be planted in cotton. and as the
Lone Star state produces very large proper
tion Of the crop, an increase there can not fail
to have an important influence on the total
yield. With respect to the other states, the
Information is rather conflicting, with the ad-
vices at hand not sufficiently definite to war
rant any settled views on the subject until the
government report is received in June.
With the knowledge of good supply ahead.
and with the prospect OF increased acreage for
the coming crop, the spinners feel that they
have it in their power to dictate prices, the
more particularly as the fear OF the passage OF
the Hatch antioption bill has driven the
SPECTATORS out OF the market as COM
petitors. In this condition Of affairs
the cotton producers of the country have
an object lesson OF the experiences they will
have to go through annually should the Hatch
bill become law. The spinners would tn en- be
the only buyers, and naturally they would seek
to purchase the crop as cheaply as possible,
and, having no competition from spectators,
they would have 1t in their power to dictate
prices,
