ers and brokers, in their weekly market
letter. say OF cotton:
About Sl5,0J0.000 of fertilizers We're
sold IN 1884 sales this season thus
far are small; cold and snow have pre-
vented planters preparing the ground.
Some few sales Of fertilizers have been
contracted on the basis Of about $50 to
315 pounds Of cotton next fall for q ton or
fertilizer. Galveston has been sending
cotton to Boston by barge AZ about s.
per bale saving in freight. FAN river

goods manufactured in the south. Cheap
woods and imported supplies are Interior
ing with the sale Of cotton for some do
nestle Uses. Representative southern
papers claim there are now 40 mills and
30D0OO spindles IN the south Low
freights and cotton appear changing
manufacturing centres.
The stock Of cotton here is about 10000
bales, o0o0 being certiicatod and delV-
cradle on contracts. New orleans has
about $4,000 bales to be cared for BY the
bull clique, who are apparently trying 10
dictate values ana manipulate the marke IS
for cotton both In this country and abroad.
Our exports to thu continent have been
over So pcr cent. larger than last season,
and about So per cent. of Ell exports,
which were 492b315 bales to February Is.
against 3SiS,4i2 last season.

India crop grownand three times as much
as India and Egypt ever exported in one
season. Bombay's receipts and exports
recently are but about tWo-thirds Of past
seasons same time

Sumption Oct / to Feb as 1896. 626 90
pounds, against L25S.2l5000 pounds the

OF the amount consumed past four

followed by n large crop. and no worms
or pests occur after such weather. The
