TALKS OF COTTON CROP.
  Senator smiths Prediction Connrmed By Sfatfetlcs

Florence, s. C., Oct s0-Unfted States Senator E. D. Smith Is in re- ceipt of . letter from Statisticiaa R. l.. Neal. with advance sheets of a cir cular to be sent out showing that after . trfp over the South the most careful estimates of the cotton crop this year indicates q possible crop of 10.520.00o bales. agreeing with recent estimate issued by Senator smith:
 From exporters, Senator Smith learns that 1t is expected if the gov. ernment report issued next week on cotton confirms private advices. cotton will be bound to reach famine prices. Speaking of the recent curtailment of production by the mills. the Senator said today;
 "The curtailment by the mills is not because of the high price of the sta pie nor the depression in the price of goods. but because the spinners see that there is not to be cotton enough to keep the mills busy until the next crop and a shutting down is inevit- able. They make a convenience of ne- cessity now in the hope such action will depress cotton while they buy greedily wherever they can. despite their agreement.
 ssThe farmers now have an oppor- tunity to see how corporations stick to their organization when business interests demand individual action. just as was the case with the farmer when he rushed his cotton to market. to their amusement. despite the farm ers' organization.
