ESTIMATE OF R. L. NEILL.
Thinks the Crop of Cotton will Be
 10. S66. .OOO Balea

New Orleans, Nov. 14.-Mr. R. Larmour Neill, representing a prominent New York firm. and nephew of Mir. Henry M. Neill. the well known cotton statistician of New Orleans. estimates this years growth of cotton at 10, ,sS5, 900 bales.
 Mir. Neill has recently completed an extensive trip through the cotton states and has devoted all his time during the past two months to studying the ques- tion. Last year he made the same trip and his estimate then was 10. .s55, 900, or within about 1 per cent. of the result He considers the spinning quality of this crop the best in his experience, and that 1t will go further in the spindles than last years crop by at least 5o0,00t bales.
 MT. Neill says the advice to Texas far. mers to plant "early" seed and to plant 1t early, offered by the speakers at the recent boil weevil convention. heldt al Dallas, Tex. is being followed with en- thusiasm and already many car loads of seed have been ordered from the Att 1antic States. This circumstance, should seasonJ prove favorable, will add large- ly to the receipts next August, but MT. Neill wishes it understood that his above estimate is for this years growth alone. It might easily be exceeded by 100, 900 to 10000 bales of new cotton. During Au- gust last year 97,000 bales of new cotton came into sight against 1000 bales this year.

A PRIEST IS MISSING
REV. JOSEPH CIRRINaIoNE HAS
 DISAPPEARED.
He Was Active in Suppressing Vic
 ious Italian Resorts and Had Received Threatening Letters

New York, Nov. 1A-Rev Joseph Cir ringione, pastor of a Catholic church In Williamsbridge, is missing and the police are endeavoring to locate him. Recently he had been very active in suppressing vicious Italian resorts, and in consequence had received several threatening letters.
 He reported the matter to the police on Wednesday. On Thursday he was the re- cipient of letter which contained the threat that unless 5000 be paid by Fri day night he would be removed" Last night, it is claimed, two men represent ing themselves as detectives, called and enticed the priest away from his house. Father Cirringione was at the Will liamsbridge station at o'clock last night. He was warned by Captain Foody not to leave the house under any consideration. Captain Foody and Detective Curry called at the parochial residence last evening and the captain does not countenance the story that bogus officers went there later. However, the priest disappeared last night.
 Captain Foody says that in his opin- ion, Father Cirringione, his mind prob ably having given way under the strain resulting from too much work had com mitted suicide. This afternoon a tee- gram was received at the home of the priest signed France and reading 4Ou naQ better call on the ArcnDlSnop at once." Who France" is, the friends were at loss to know.
 Anthony Gullota. partner of the miss ing priests lawyer, received a letter from Father Cirringione today which was mailed last night. In 1t the pastor said that he would be unable to keep his ap- pointment for today as he was in great trouble. The missing priest also wrote a letter to another friend which was re- ceived today, and in which he wrote that he would be at his friends office this afternoon, adding if God spares my life,'

Car Service Report.

The report of the Alabama Car Service Association for the month of October has been issued, and it shows that the rail- roads belonging to the association last month handled 67.192 cars. larger num- Der of cars in one month than ever handled before in the same length of time except the month of March this year, when the figures were 67.4o0.
 As compared to October last year, a gain of 10,961 cars Is shown. the re- port as to cars handled in October, 1902, showing 56.231 cars against the 67,192 this October.
 This report is most interesting. The iron shipments for the first week in Oc- tober were light. But there was no fslb ing off in the railroad business, inas- much as there were other movements, in- cluding the cotton shipments.
 For the present month heavy reports are already coming in. and 1t is believ- ed that the Car Service Association will have a large amount of work again on hand. The iron shipments are heavy right now, while coal movements are steady and the cotton shipments exceed ingly heavy. Regular traffic Is also very healthy. Including the month of October there have been six months this year that the railroads have handled over 5000 cars. Not a single month last year does the report show as many as 57.000 cars. It Is, therefore. to be seen that the business with the railroads is on the increase.
