H. 6 B. BEERS COTTON LETTER.
Bv Private Wire to C. G. Abercrombie
 Co.,, 32 Commerce St., Montgomery, Ala.

New Orleans May 1s.-The market ad- vanced to a leVe today not attained since at 12 II. october 1l.75. The further i'm proyement was due to an official forecast for showers tonight and Sunday In Texas and the Mississippi valley.
 The trade is so much concerned over the uncartainties of the government June crop condition report, due about two weeks weather throws the market into convulstons The feeling is so intensely bullish in the south because of tho backwardness and poor condition of the crop, which, in some sec tions, remains implanted. owing to the me- cessity of having had to replant several times account of the wet. cold weather this spring, that it Is thought impossible to form any idea as to where cotton might advance to owing to the possibilities or the market being beyond comprehension in the event of this years crop falling oeioW 13.0o0.o0O bales.
 The cotton trade of the world appears to be expanding at a greater rate than imaS- ined and consumers not little disturb ed. over the labor problem. not only In the south and New England, but in all spinning centers of the world.
 Catering to the demands of employees the mills of New England have granted an advance nf 10 per cent. to take effect May 27th, which will affect apont loT.oos and Connecticut all of which confirms re- ports of spnners being well engaged and on basis more profitable than TOT many years As have said indirectly before such conditions do not apply alone to the United States. as The Liverpool Post of May 4th Is quoted as follows: Tn statement issued yesterday. MT. Vim. Tattersail. or Manchester, 1t Is shown that five large cot ton spinning mills have this week declared profits equal to 4s per cent per annum on tho share capital, and 2S per cent per an mum on all the capital employed Only about five years ago practically every Lam cashire mill stock could nave been purchas- ed below par value"
 Thus far this season spinners takings on the basis of last years acceptances, arr pointing to a total of about 13,335.ooo of American for the season ending next Au- gust Therefore. probable size of American crop this year. which is to supply the de mand next season, has become the ail-an- sorbing' question. There Is possibility nf there being a decrease in the acreage farmers being so much behind in farm worr of every description. and so far cohditions nf the crop, and a large crop has never been made by Juno condition below so' there is just no telling how low the condi- ton to be reported will be- 1t may be as low as 75 and TAI was the lowest June report on record the crop of that year hn- ing 1o,000.00o bales.
 Yours truly,

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRODUCE.

Chicago. May 1s.-The cereal markets were chiefly influenced today by the inev- itable week end realizing. Wheat drop ped in net figures nearly four cents July July corn declined %c. July oats hc. Pro visions dropped 7K 912hc.
 There were other influences in wheat but they availed not against the instinctlye ye desire to secure profits without testing the possibilities of idle Sunday. Cables were lower and Budapest reported rain in Russia as well as the Austro- Hungarian grain belt but the desire for profits among the cautious offset these factors. Buying orders were by no means absent, for de- mand was again large and of general pro portions. but 1t was insufficient to hold prices at the high level at which the mar ket closed yesterday.
 July sold between ss1s aesMc and closed 3% e 7sc lower al 96E G &c. Other options closed at proportionate losses. Primary re ceipts were 63o,0Oo bushels, against 2S3.oo0 a year ago Seaboard clearances were

Ju ly sold between 53%c and 52% c Ac and closed %c lower at 527s T 53c.
 The oats market held well in the face of the weakness of other grains. but could not wholly escape sympathetic action usual in such cases. Trade was on a liberal scale. but after selling substantially. prevail ing at the previous days close, there was a reduction fin the volume both of the bids and the offerings The general fear that the bugs are bound to get large share of the growing crop gave confidence 10 the holders indicated by the action of the market.

 with regard to the attitude of the South upon the entire question, l think I may safely say that nothing in recent years has created so much interest thore and aroused so strong public sentiment as has the prospect of remedying the abuses of which MT Price complains, and I believe that the cotton interests there are unanimously behind MT.
