WEEKLY S!ARKEr REVIEW.

The frosts which materialiZed a
week ago caused an excited market
early in the past. week. Most of this
advance was later lost, but toward the
end of the week heavy buying by the
bull leaders and a disposition to re-
duce crop estimates caused another
outburst Of strength carrying prices to
a still higher level. The close was
within a few points of the top, and
shows a gain for the week of about
so points.
Apart from the sentimental and ar
tificial influences, the developments of
the week were rather bearish than
bullish, after the frost news had been
discounted The movement increased
heavily, and Liverpool responded slug
gishly to the later strength. From
the low point early in october New
York has advanced 1870 to 140 points,
while Liverpool is up barely so, equal
to about 100 in New York.
The trade will probably soon begin
to lose faith in the prevailing ex-
IRENE short crop estimates, which
really do not seem justified by APP
parent facts With the elimination of
the October spot demand, it may be
found much more difficult to sustain
the market.
The Crop of 10000.
In attempting to estimate the present
crop, it would appear necessary to al
low for a larger acreage increase than
the generally accepted figures. Plant
ing continued actively for several
weeks, after the estimates came out,
very much of it on the spur of the
moment, inspired by the high prices.
and which could not possibly have been
allowed for. Further a great deal
was planted in localities where little
or none had previously been grown.
and some of this also certainly escap-
ed notice. The large sales of fertili-
zers and general induction lead to a
conviction that the increase was about
10 per cent. This added to last years
yield would make the crop about H.
S25. 900 bales, on equal conditions.
An exceedingly unpromising start was
succeeded in July and August by phe-
nominal recuperation. The plant was
officially and privately reported as
having made fine growth, and taken
on heavy fruitage throughout the belt.
This continued until the latter part
of August when the usual deteriora-
ton commenced. At the end of Sep
TENDER the bureau put the condition
at about Ga, which was rather more
than 10 per cent. better than last

crop OF fully 100000 bales, had the
lall season been favorable and suffi-
GENTLY prolonged to permit the plant
10 make up for its relative lateness
BUT the prospect was not to be
realized; cool weather and frosts came
unusually early, and seriously inn
paired the outlook. The actual dam
age by frost does not appear to have
been generally very extensive, but
merely because there was not much
to be hurt in the way of top crop. In
the lower ATTITUDES the crop can still
go on and make whatever more it may
have in it to make.
Over the upper half of the belt it
Is perhaps reasonable to assume that
the crop was reduced as much as 20
per cent. by the early cold, from the
prospect of the end of September, over
the lower part of the belt, probably
III per cent. may be regarded as a fair
estimate. This would make an aver
age decline of Is per cent. from the
earlier promise of 1900, 900 bales, and
mus point to a crop of about 11,050, 900
bales. The actual outturn may be
somewhat larger, as the estimate of
the frost damage may prove to be ex-
ceSsive.
II Is interesting TO note that a
curiously similar result can be obtain
ed by an analysis of the movement,
however misleading the latter usual
ly is as a guide to the extent of the
crop.
The movement into sight up to the
end of October is slightly over 2,700.-
900 bales. From the present rate of
movement, and by comparison with
former years, We may look for some
where near 100000 bales to come in
to sight during November, making just
about 100000 bales to date, on Nov.
80. Now, the per cent. of the crop

BANKER, CLEWS' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen from
Wall Street.

New York, Oct. although occa-
sional disturbances, such as the cop
per war and the run on St. Louis
banking institutions, keep the stock
market in a somewhat nervous con-
dttion the general trend in financial
circles is toward further improvement
This is due to the belief that the forced
liquidating movement has about reach
ed its end, and that no further serious
trouble is looked for from that source
1t is generally admitted now that the
country must readjust itself to lower
prices; that supply has overtaken de-
mand, and that the latter can only
be revived by the ordinary and in
evitable methods of concession. This
applies not only to Wall street, but
to the whole business world. Wall
street has simply apprehended this
fact first; 1t has foreseen the inevitable
and adjusted itself to events as usual
almost before their occurrence.
Discrimination is still the order of
the day on the stock market. Many
good dividend paying stocks have been
almost cut in two, and corresponding
ly less money being required to carry
them speculation is likely to be en-
couraged thereby. Confidence is grad
ually reviving owing to the belief that
liquida ton is about over, and the sat
isfactory fashion in which recent
shocks have been stood is practical
evidence of the soundness of this belief.
The outlook, therefore is for a more
active and stronger market except for
the industrials.
