THEODORE II. PRICE
ON COTTON.

Al effort has been made to depress the
cotton market to-day by the circulation
of q report that Alr. a. J. Buston. a
iy.iverpool cotton merchant. who makes
an annual trip to the South. will short
~ publish an estimate of the crop.
which. it was rumored, was in the neigh
borhood of twelve million bales. ! desire
to warn Southern holders of cotton
against being affected by Mr.. Buston' 8
estimate. | mean no dlsparagement Of
the gentlemen himself, but 1t is proper
that the trade should understand that
he represents a Liverpool clientage. Liv-
erpool has to buy American cotton. and
it naturally wants to buy 1t as cheap
Nv as possible Whether Mr.. Buston's
estimate is ten million OF twelve mil
lion bales will not alter the facts OF the
case which are as follows:
Exports for the season to date are
.334. 900 bales larger than during the same
period last year. Shipments to Northern
mills and talSings OF Southern mills are
about 100000 bales larger than during
the same period last year, so that. not
withstandjpg an excess In the early re-
ice1pts OF about $4,000 bales. this excess
being indicative Of q! drousht-shortened
crop. the total stocks OF cotton at the
United States ports and at thirteen OF
tho most important interior towns are
only about 60, 600 bales IN excess OF what
they were last year. This shows that
the world needs the cotton. and Is taxi
ing it; they must In my opinion. con-
tinue to take II, and will probably buy
more eagerly at nine cents per pound
than at present.
