Good Crops in Egypt.

The news from Egypt continues 70 be

excellent The estimate regarding the
cotton crop, for example, still is for
something Ike eight million cantars. And
the other crops promise proportionately
we'll There is a hopeful feeling every
where Business upon the Bourse is more
active than II has been during the last
Eve years. Indeed, there has been during
the week a further and a very salts
factory recovery In securities which had
been depressed ever since the crash OF
1901 Europe is recognizing the favorable
opportunity for investment offered by
Egypt, and, therefore. both Paris and
London are actively buying. IL follows
that there Is likely 20 be q very large de-
mand for gold, and the estimate Of the
amount needed tends upward rather than
downward. Estimates Of the kind, as we
pointed out last week, are not trust-
worthy for the simple reason that It is
too early yet 10 form q reliable opinion.
The cotton crop will not be gathered In
Tor three months yet, and during three
months nobody can foresee what may
happen. Still. II may be taken for granted
that there viii be strong demand for the
