for settlement. The good governments are

will go solidly for Gambler and Senator

Hubbard Bros & Co.'s Circular.


New York, Dec 2S.-Hubbard Bros &
Co. say of cotton: "With the meeting of
the Cotton Growers Association at At
lanta and Memphis, the question of the
acreage for the coming crop becomes
subject for discussion in the trade. Res
oiutions looking towards a reduction of
area were adopted al these conventions,
as had been expected. but the trade is not
yet confident that they will be carried into
effect by the vast number of planters who
produce the cotton crop. Each planter
will, it is thought, be governed more by
his individual surroundings than by these
resolutions, and the question, therefore is
one of actual or prospective
profit. There can be little
profit in raising cotton at present
prices. and In many localities there is
doubtless a positive loss, but will not each
planter think that his neighbor will de-
crease his acreage and that, therefore, he
himself can plant the full extent of his
edrea. Usually this policy has been fol-
1owed but in several years the planters
have actually decreased the acreage with
the result of establishing higher prices
for some succeeding years. II is evident
that the high prices for wheat and tobacco
Will lead TO the planting of these staples
wherever they can be raised upon
voted to cotton will probably be determin-
ed by the prices ruling at the time the
crop Is planted.
IF the world did not expect smaller
crop next season they would not be buyers
of the cotton now coming to market as.
with consumption of 9.50O000 bales an
addition of Loco, 900 bales to the supply
would stop this demand and lead to lower
and stagnant markets. Our American
spinners are suffering from the general be-
lief in large crop of cotton, rather than
from an overproduction of goods as the
tendency of modern trade is to throw the
weight of large crops upon the producer
and manufacturer. The consumer and
merchant feels that there Will be no scare
ity of goods, and, therefore buys as we
therefore said last week, from hand to
mouth which makes the supply of goods
and cotton seem larger than it really is at
any given time.
There are buyers on declining markets
who base their operations on the belief in
smaller crop next year, but there are
none as yet buying on the belief in a bull
market. If there were, they would buy
upon advances, which, as yet they have
not commenced to do. An advance also
seems to check the demand from spinners
but 1t is evident that the southern short
interest for shipments abroad was under
estimated, as the southern markets are
not Yet on a basis with either Liverpool
or New York. In Liverpool the view Is
held that the last of this large crop will
weigh heavily upon prices, as holders be-
come discouraged at the lack of vitality
