SHORT COTTON CROP.

The New York Journal says:
The cotton crop is menaced by
disaster. Private reports from the
South are so bad that they are be-
ing withheld from publication up-
til large operators can take their
positions in the market. The
present heaviness of the cotton
market is admitted by most oh.
servers TO be manipulated in the
interests of operators who have
sold out and want to accumulate a
line of long contracts. Some re-
ports place the total yield for the
year as low as 5000, 900 bales, but
hesitate to make the announce
ment publicly lest it be consid.
cred too sensational.
