COT TON.

New York, Dec. S.-The agrlcul-
tural department estimates this years
cotton crop at 1915, 900 bales. It is
officially stated that this estimate does
not include the production of linters.
which is probably not less than 3.OO0,-
900 bales. The figures, therefore, may
be accepted as indicating a minimum
of 12.5O0,O00 and as In the case OF rec
ord-breaking yields the department has
never failed to underestimate crop by
from 10 per cent. to Is per cent. It Is
my opinion that for practical purposes
to-day's crop estimate may be taken
as indicating commercial crop OF at
least 1880. 900 bales, and possibly 49,
900. 900. With such a supply IL Is hard
TO say how low cotton will go. IL in
dicatos "a visible surplus at the end OF
the year OF az least 100000 bales OF
American cotton, and such a supply
has never failed In the past 20 carry
prices considerably below cents, and
sometimes as low a. So cents. see
no reason why history should not re-
peat itself, and advise holders 10 sell
as promptly AZ possible and before
aplnners fully appreciate the fremen-
doua Advantage they now occupy IN
being able 70 make practically thsir
own prices for such cotton a. they
may have yet 20 purchaae. Signed"

WILD SCENES AT RING

New Orleans, Dec. 3.-Cotton futures

Spot Cotton-No sales to-day on
which to base quotations. Sales after
hours yesterday were $500, including
$50 to arrive and $50 f. o. b.
heavy slump marked the an
nouncement of the bureau report on
the Cotton Exchange to-day and a
wild scene followed around the ring.
In anticipation of a day of excitement
the floor and the galleries were filled
with ladies'. The estimate of II, 162, 900
was surprise, marking by close to
million bales the largest crop yet
raised. Prices fell from 4S45S points
within a few minutes after reading
the report and representing about $3.50
per bale. Many excited country bank
ers on the floor. They had been lend
ing money on a basis of Sc and above.
January tumbled to 1880, March to
5000 and May to S.13c.
There We're slight recoveries from the
figures, but in the battle at the ring
side prices fluctuated so rapidly that
long after IL o'clock the market was
still in a highly troubled state. Only
the fact that the ginners' report had
indicated a bearish report, enabling the
bulls to protect themselves, saved the
market from very much heavier
slump.
Futures opened unsettled and 9614
points lower than last evenings finals.
January was IL points lower, at S.S2c.
advanced to Sale, declined to 7.S2c and
finally gained 2 points to 7.84c a loss
of SO points on the day. The market
closed steady, with net losses of 500
81 points.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-12-04

Attention was. Of course, directed ex-
clusively toward preparing for the
government estimate a little after the
first hour and during the early trad
ing prices shot up and down so irregu-
larly that 1t was almost impossible to
keep track of the range of values. In
a general way however, they averaged
between the opening and last nights
close, with considerable covering in
progress.
AS the hour of the report approach
ed, the market quoted down somewhat
and ruled around last nights prices.
Futures closed barely steady, with
prices net 52057 points lower.
Before the government report was
issued prices had worked down again
to the low point of the session. The
report when issued proved a distinct
surprise even to the bears, showing a
crop of 1912 900 bales, exclusive of
linters, and prices broke about 1sc a
pound Immediately following it's pub
lication, regardless of the big decline
that has taken place during the last
month.

Cotton Letter from New Orleans.

Cotton Letter from New Orleans.
New Orleans, Dec. 3.-To-day's mar
ket was short, snappy and memo
rable session on the American ex-
changes, made so by the publishing of
the Agricultural Departments esti-
mate of the total number of bales pro-
duced for the seasons 1904-1905, l2,162,-
900 bales. Round bales included in this
estimate and reduced to their equiva-
lent in square bales, but the estimate
does not include linters, which amount
ed to 10000 bales last season. Detail
report by states production of lint per
acre and net weight of bales on which
estimate was based, will be made pub
lie Monday at II o'clock, New Or
leans time; every inch of floor space
was taken up by the large member
ship of the Exchange, who were ell
bowed and jostled by a large, inter-
ested representation from the country,
as we'll as by a large sprinkling of
feminine sex. From the opening of
the market, which was about points
lower than last nights closing, March,
S.53c, against $500, trading was Of such
unusual heavy character that had the
day been a full session, the volume
of business transacted would probably
have surpassed all records. The esti-
mate was announced from the 'ros-
trum" at II o'clock sharp, when the
market was about the highest of the
day, March selling at S.53c. The next
moment March was selling at $40 and
freely offered at an additional decline
of points, when satisfied shorts be-
gan to accept profits, all the distressed
cotton being taken care of, but with the
demand provided for the market con-
tinued downward in search of a new
low level, March finally selling off to
&c, and closing at sole. Under the
present conditions the world is not
prepared for crop in excess of 49,
900, 900 bales, and unless farmers with
hold their cotton from the market,
prices may eventually work lower. In
making this estimate on the probable
yield, the Times-Democrat of New Or
leans arrived at 11,940, 900 bales, after
allowing $50 pounds to the bale but
had they figured net, as the govern
