PRESENT CROP.
FirSt-

In special report published yesterday,
the New York Journal of Commerce says
that it has endeavored to collect data
that would throw some light upon the
existing uncertainties of the cotton crop
estimates. With this object in view we
have addressed our special correspond
ents in the South who served us so we'll
last year and many carefully selected
ones in addition, asking them to give us
the stocks of cotton in their localities now
as compared with the same time last
year; also, the amount yet expected to
come into sight.
We have received over eleven hundred
replies to date. Our correspondents re-
marks, which have been published from
day TO day, bear such a uniform tone
that we nave refraned from republishing
them in this main report. The unanimity
of opinion that stocks are small as COM
pared with the same last year; that farm
ers are holding little or no cotton, and
that the crop is sold and gone to mar
ket unusually early, are facts distinctly
brought out. Below we present a statis-
teal summary, follwed by the table of
detailed reports. This report is only in
tended to show the facts as we have re-
CtlNeu IieHl anu we ledN0 our readers 10
make their own deductions. 1t is neces-
sarily an indication only of the crop
movement, and does not pretend to be
definite statement regarding the whole
crop.
In abulating the reports those replies
which gave mo stocks" this year or last
year and none to come into sight have
been omitted. Unless especially noted
mill stocks are not included. The towns
reporting show a stock of 226, $50 bales,
against 502,923 bales last year, a decrease
of SIS per cent. Estimates vary as to the
proportion of crop to come in sight from
0.9 per cent. in Texas to SIS per cent. in
North Carolina. Following are the details

SILK CULTURE IN THE SOUTH.

The South is destined to add silk Gull
ture to it's other large industries. 1T has
been demonstrated on small scale
that silk culture can be made a success
in North Carolina. BY taking prompt
action, this State may secure colony of
Italians who are to be brought South to
raise silk. Mr.. Louis E. Magid. New
York banker, has been travelling through
the South for several weeks investi-
eating the country for the introduction
of silk culture. In an !, interview in
Washington he is quoted by the Wash
ington Post as, saying:
"The climate of the Piedmont section,
which 1 call that between Washington.
Atlanta and Columbus, is the ideal
place to begin, but there is no reason
why the native farmers of every State
in the Union should not engage in the
silk culture, and my company offers to
give them any and all information in
connection with the matter, as we want
every farmer to produce silk, and we
shall create a market for the cocoons
by our plan Of establishing mills. l had
an interview With Secretary Wilson,
based on long correspondence, and he
has assured me that as far as was in
his power he will assist the establishment
of silk culture III the United States, as
ne has been of the opinion that silk Gull
ture could be introduced in the United
States. and now has bill before Con-
gIess asking for $4,000 with which l
believe he is goirS TO distribute null
berry trees and eggs to all who will ask
for them"
Mr.. Magid will import Italians in or
der tc have expert labor, to do the work
and teach the Southern people to raise
silk and to learn the unwinding or reel
ing Of the cocoons. Labor can he OBJ
tanned in the South much cheaper than
in any part of Europe says Mr.. Magid
The silk-raising lasts only two months
of the year, and can be conducted by
women or children above six years Of
age during the months of May and June.
State Commissioner Patterson will take
steps TO induce the establishment of a
colony in North Carolina.

A GENEROUS CITIZEN.

Mr.. George W. Pack, whose generous
gifts to Asheville have endeared him to
every inhabitant of that city, has pre-
sented the city with park containing
eleven acres on the west side OF the
French Bread avenue. When Asheville
property was at high water mark, $780,
0G0 was offered for the property and re-
fused. The park is to be called Aston
Park in honor of the late Mayor Aston,
one of Asheville's best citizens. Any

citizen as Mr. Pack has a right to be
proud Of him. The Citizen says he has

TOO MUCH GOLD.

The report now comes from Washing
ton, by way of Denver, that the advocates
of the gold standard, are alarmed over
the immense production of gold. II seems
that senator Rawlins, of Utah, wished an
assay office established at Provo but
Mr. Roberts, Director of the Mint, de-
clined TO establish it on the ground that
he did not wish Ito encourage the produc-
tion of gold-that the gold production will
be so enormously increased that it will
seriously disarrange the worlds credit
There were two classes who favored
the free coinage of silver, the few who
wished to find larger use for silver bull
lion, and the many who believed that
prices would not go up until there was a
larger circulation of primary money or
the money of redemption. That class,
embracing nearly all who favored free
coinage, point to the fact that there was
no let up in failures until there was a
large addition of gold to the circulating
medium.

The greatest Of modern physicians Prof.

Leaving visible supply all over the
world 31st August. 1902. ........ 136m
126m being absurd the crop must either
exceed 10A or consumption must be re-
duced somewhere! Question is where?
In view of the fact that two years ago,
when the worlds visible supply of cot
ton at the end of the season was the
smallest since the American War, name
ly: 533 900 bales, the price of cotton ad-
vanced to pence a pound in Liverpool
and II cents a pound in New York and
that many mills had to stop simply be-
cause\it was impossible to secure the raw
material at any price, comment upon Mr..
Harvey'S figures is almost unnecessary.
They point unerringly toward the early
development of the STRONGEST situation in
cotton that has been seen during the
present generation. And if to the present
and prospective insufficiency in the sup
ply with which the cotton trade is now
confronted, there shall be added as
Messrs. Aver & Co.'S circular suggests,
the apprehension that we shall have a
short supply again next year, there may
land it is quite likely there WILD develop
in cotton a speculation that will send the
price of the article to figure which at
the moment it would seem almost ridicu-
lous to suggest.
In regard to the figures of the New
York Journal Of Commerce, l may say
that although independently compiled,
they compare as follows with my own
