The sword cost $500, and is said to
be as handsome as the one manufae-
tured by Tiffany for Admiral Dewey.

worlds visible supply.

New Orleans. Sept. 1-secretary Hester's
statement of the worlds visible supply
of cotton shows a decrease for the week
just closed of 550S1 bales, against de-
crease of 41,00O last year, and decrease
Of rs, $50 year before last.
The total visible Is 2,6079i5, against q
e62, 1853 last week, and 2Oi5,47 last year.
OF this, the total of American cotton Is
/, 1872, 945 against 2003, 963 last week, and l.
434,477 last year. and of all other kinds
including Egypt, Brazil, india etc, 635,-
900, against $4,000 last week, and 6ll,OOO
last year.
Note.-Hereafter, the New Orleans cot
ton Exchange worlds visible supply of
cotton will contain, in addition to the US
ual items. the stocks at Alexandria, Egypt,
and Bombay, India and the stock aioat in
Bombay harbor These items which
have been hitherto ignored in all state
ments of visible supply issued In America
amount at this date to $4,000 against
4l4,OOO last year and $4,000 the year be-
fore. There has been no reason for ig-
noring this amount of cotton, which was
actually visible, and was counted in state
ments of that kind by Liverpool; hence
hereafter the worlds visible supply will
actually consist OF al cotton in sight at
all centera in America, Europe and else
where.
