The Cotton Outlook.

A well known and we'll informed local
cotton buyer today said: ~
THE cotton situation at the moment
Is full of danger to the Southerner on &C
count of the effort being made from New
York to convince him that the growing
crop is irretrievably ruined and large
advance in prices is bound to ensue.
while opinions are much divided about
the probable out turn yet the most re-
liable information points to an increase
in North and South Carolina. Indian Ter
ritory, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louis
lana, while Texas Georgia and Alabama
are presumed to be about as poor as last
year. Under no circumstances can a
smaller crop be looked for and with a
late fall 100000 bales IL assured and a
much larger figure probable.
1.-THE leader OF the bull canqpaign Faf
some 5000 bales of futures winch he b
wishful to dispose of at present prices,
having bought the same at about 50 to IS
: bale cheaper. The question I wish to
put is this: After previous experiences is
the 6outherner anxious to pull the chest
nuts out Of the fire, or let the monkey
burn himself?
TT Is as nearly certain as can be that
with the whole weight of the coming
crop about to be marketed lower prices
win be seen. but 1t Is greatly to be hoped
that the South will not then be found
carrying cotton bought at a higher price
and on which a heavy loss has been
made"
