Alabama's Cotton Crop.

Latham, Alexander & Co. of New York estimates the cotton crop of this year at 10, 30O, 900 bales. Their estimates are usual ly close to the official figures after the returns are all in. For instance, on Mo- crop at Il 100000, and 1t turned out to be 10, ,72s, 900.
 Latham. Alexander & Co. say in their recent circular:
 "As rule, weather conditions through out the south for the year have been unfavorable for the production of cotton Planting was late moisture excessive in the spring and after germination the weather continued too cool for normal growth. Extreme heat followed and found the plant tender and rank. which greatly injured 1t in a large section of the cotton belt. Later, about the middle of October, frost occurred and as the crop was very late destroyed the unmatured bolls. The gathering season has been exceptionally fine in all sections and the crop thus far has been secured in good condition marketed rapidly, on account of urgent demand in the interior from spinners whose mills were closed for some months, or who carried over very small stocks into the new cotton year.
 Girls Normal and Industrial School. The Rev. Dr. Francis Peterson, presi- dent of the Girls Normal and Industrial school at Montevalo, is stopping at the Morris. The doctor is in excellent health and spirits and speaks enthusiastically of the industrial school.
 He said last night: -Four hundred and thIrty-three students are now enrolled in our school, the largest enrolment that the institution has had in its history. We are greatly handicapped by lack of accommo- dations. We are loath to turn any stu dents away but unless we get some relief we will be compelled to do so. Our dor mitories are crowded to overnowing and the chapel will only seat 31s. The teach Ing corps now numbers 20.
 "The executive committee of the board of trustees is in Birmingham for the pres ent letting the contracts for some new buildings that are to be erected at an ear ly date. We hope when these additions are completed to get some relief.

How Il Strikes an Operator.

A coal opcr&tar wAo was at the
rapitol today entered into an eXplana-
ton Of Why coal is hign, and as his
statement seeps TO confirm some pub
lie suspicious, ii is worth printing as
he gave it. His mine is in Ohio. Some
days ago the company of which he is a
part agreed to sell the product at the
mine at 81 95 a ton. He Was sitting
in his office, when several coal dealers
appeared Instead of asking his price
D. ton. one OF them exclaimed in a bold
eager voice.. II will give you for
prompt delivery 81 a ton. Another in
terrupted quickly: Il will offer $3.50"
Still another jerked out nervously,
vaising bis voice to the highest pitch:
And l bid IS ton" Thus by over
bidding they carried the cost price up
to nearly 800 per cent over the original
price the operator had fixed. The con-
sumner was only considered as a man
to be supplied as rapidly As possible at
