COTTON ACREAGE REPORT.
Southern Association Presents EST
mated Area for the Year.

The Southern Cotton Association has is
sued its cotton acreage report at New
Orleans. The report says:
The estimated acreage for 1904 as in
dicated by the report of the United States
government amounted to 31,730.0OO acres.
The decrease in the acreage for 1908.
IS shown by our tabulated statement.
which was compiled from 17.154 indf-
vidual reports from farmers, merchants,
bankers and others throughout the cot
ton belt. fixes the acreage this year at
2J,oSO,9J1 acres decrease of 1S.43 per
cent and 1905 per cent in fertilizers.
The condition of the crop, as reported
for Louisiana, Texas. Arkansas. the ter
ritories and portions of Mississippi is
approximately bad. much of the acre
age reported in those states being yet
implanted and large tracts either under
water or badly washed by heavy rains.
in the eastern portion of the cotton
belt the fields are grassy, the cotton still
unchopped and labor scarce throughout
the entire belt. The officers of the assO
citation expressed the highest commenda-
ton of the loyalty of the farmers
throughout the cotton territory in SO
fully living up to their promises and
pledges in bringing about so material a
reduction in the cotton acreage and
use of commercial fertilizers under cotton
for 1905.
The present demand for cotton is I'M
precedented, and with firm and de-
termined stand higher prices for the
staple Will be secured in the near future.

1t appears the Bunny took aboard Rojest-

also POO from the OSlabia, but finding navi-
cation difficult transferred Rojestvensky
and staff to the Biedovy. and while running
nOrthward met the DonSkoi. May 3, to

Bunny sank herself.
The Osiabia, according to other survi-
vors, had her coming tower struck at the
first straight shot of the battle of May II.
and Admiral Volkersham killed; and
after succession of shots she sank about
3 O'Clock in the afternoon. Survivors of the
DonSkoi say they saw two deStroyerS sink
