o. to the Trade-Yeserday's Market.

Yesterday the cotton season of 1sss-1soo
eamc To q close. and II was one Of the most
remarkable years in the history OF the cot
ton trade, Numerous anomalous conditions
at times prevailed. One day cotton futures
In New Orleans were quoted at prices in
cents 6. 7. s and 8, with. OF course. dsclmals
added. Again, we find that the current de-
livery month would be half TO three-quarters
OF cent above the spot quotation and in a
few more days spots would command half a
cent premium over the spot delivery.
When The season opened on September
last the visible supply was 2,149 s6i bales and
this was ON an American crop of 11,2s55s3
bales. The present crop can not exceed in
round figures 100000 :alas, and the visible
has dwindled down TO less than 100000 bales
American.
Never has there been such dearth OF
cotton as at present. In 1897 the visible on
September / was only sS77ei, which was
then regarded as being small. but 1t was
followed by crop of n.1SOe6O bales, SO
that the spinner had nothing to fear
This season opens up entirely different
Not only are visible stocks the lowest in
