LONDON, Jan. 23.-It is rumor-
ed that Senator Wolcott, of Coiora-

quite satisfied with the progress of

MIR. Wolcott finds that the posi-

remains unchanged. from the time
of the Brussels conference; namely ,
that the British government and
House of Commons Is committed to
do all in their power to secure by
international agreement stable

COTTON CONDITIONS FAVORABLE.

Still at the Bottom Notch.

Latham, Alexander & Co., in their

We have the pleasure of submit

the past four years:

From this statement, the total Wis,
ible supply Of cotton in the world is
126,179 bales more than last year,
789,990 bales less than in 1895, and
47S, ,745 bales less than in 1894.
The amount Of cotton that has
been marketed to date is 1,456,10
bales more than last year, 947,054

400 bales more than in 1894.
The exports this year are 1,415,

632 bales less than III 1895, and
625, ,65S bales more than IN 1894.
The stock in United States Ports
is 90 542 bales more than last year,
44,44S bales more than in 1895, aud
and $3.50 bales more than in 1894
The price of cotton is low 0.90
cents cheaper than last year, 1G0
cents dearer than in 1895, and O.64
cents cheaper than in 1894 for
| March contracts.
The statistical position Of cotton
is favorable, and the price has de-
clined SO materially that 4 l. 32d
for middiing uplands in Liverpool
and 7 5 l6 cts. in New York appear
cheap, particularly as the great bulk
of the crop has been marketed, and
any addition to the supply from the
new crop is impossible for eight
months.
The enormous export to Europe
4,005, ,l59 bales, is a substantial evi-
deuce Of the foreign demand, and
our advices from abroad justify the
belief that large consumption and
active trade are likely to continue.
At home, many cotton mills that
have been idle for d considerable
time, have revived operations, thus
increasing the demand for the raw
material, and a better and improv-
ing market for cotton goods can bt
confidently expected. For the pas
three years rigid economy and I
elimination in the consumption Of
manufactured goods has been prac
tissd by the people all over th'
world, and the belief in a speedy re
turn to normal conditions Is not un
reasonable.
