New York, March 23.-Riordan & Co.
say of cotton: This has been lively week
in cotton. August sold at soc on Mon
day advanced to 637c on Wednesday and
TINS morning, influenced by the sharp
break in Liverpool, had reacted to 6.12c.
The decline over, however, the market
had good support, and the close was very
steady with 6.17c bid for August. The
receipts continue very heavy, but 1t is
hardly too much to say that they are
completely overshadowed in interest by
the udtngs coming in as to the outlook for
the new crop. Conservative opinions now
agree that the present crop will be be-
tween 9,750000 and 100000 bales but the
low prices have greatly stimulated con-
sumption and there will be no such sur
plus as might have been expected from
so enormous yield. As to the extent to
which acreage viii be reduced for the
coming season, opinions differ widely but
all agree that there must be some reduce
tion and that not more than about one
half the ordinary quantity of commercial
fertilizers viii be used This last consid-
GRAFTON is likely to effect the yield far
more than many people suppose. The
absence of fertilizers will not only dimin-
ish the vigor and fruitfulness of the
plant, but viii postpone it's maturity to
so late a period in the fall as to expose
1t TO many accidents of the season. which
ought to be avoided. The extreme prob
ability Of so phenomenally favorable a
season as the last one being followed bv
another equally fine is another thing
upon which the bulls naturally point with
good deal Of confidence; We. our
selves. think that all the chances point
toa much smaller crop this year than last
year II this be conceded, there is GER
tainly room for a far greater reaction
from the extreme low prices than we
