End or 3rj. Last December the Governments s estimate was a little short of the actual out-turn. s.s62.s2s, compared with 1o,o1i.ooo bales The October report of the Agricui- tural Department showed prospects for a crop of about 20 per cent larger than last year. indicating a crop of about 100000 bales With the increase in acreage the out-turn of this crop could not be less than 1o.s0o.0oo even If yield per acre was as small as last years ITO pounds. which was smallest for many seasons, if not on record. Manchester. however is doing such splen- did business, said to be the best for the past 70 years, that the consumption of American cotton Is going to play an important part in the framing of values this season. The general opinion is that the Government es- timate will have to be 11,250,000 or more to be construed bearish. and 1t is possible for it to be less than A,oOO.0 .0oo. In the mean time we are likely to be served with a census ginners' report. giving cotton ginned to Nov. 14th. which will probably show about the same amount of cotton ginned from Oct. 18th to Nov. 14th was reported last year, 3,10S,914 standard bales, which would bring the total ginned to Nov 14th up to about s.525,oo0. compared with 6,S15.- GOO to same date one year ago.

GAR FRIGHTENED HORSE
Driver was Spilled Out and Animal
Continued on Run Home.

M
A horse attached to a wagon, both Of
which belonged to Mr.. Forgoson, of Ber-
gan Hill, was being driven by q man
down Bordentown avenue, Saturday, and,
as they approached the corner hat turns
into Broadway, trolley car No. IA came
|r unG the curve without las we ave
told before) the ringing of a bell, or the
sound of a whistle. The horse started on
a run and the driver lost control of him,
as the whole thing, trolley car and all
was so unexpected.
The scat of the wagon bounced off,
sending the driver, who looked as II
scared out Of his wits, into the bottom Of
the wagon. The car went on its way
with the men, motorman and conductor
smiling as If 1t was a good joke, while
the horse started down Broadway to
Henry street with the driver still in the
bottom of the wagon. Suddenly he rolled
out on to the ground, which certain
parties enjoyed as a funny spectacle, be-
cause they weren't in his place. Some
one tried to catch the horse but it wa
no go, or rather, 1t was too much 90, for
the last seen of him and the wagon, they
were fairly flying to the end of Henry
street and no doubt reached Forgotson's
W Without being caught.
