HIGHER PRICES FOR COTTON
Statistical Position Points to Increase
in Demand and Consequent
Advance In Values.

The statistical position OF cotton
points to higher prices in midsummer"
said former cotton man to a Bir-
mingham Age Herald representative.
The exports are not very far be-
hind the normal now. and this coupled
with the increasing demand for cotton
Tor the manufacture Of explosives to-
gether with strong demand for cot
ton goods for uniforms, will make the
carry-over' of our enormous crop
about the usual 100000 bales. Cot
ton In Liverpool is lower than in New
York, but in Germany II is so per cent
higher than in Liverpool. The Ger
mans expect by synthetic chemistry
and agricultural means to provide a
substitute for most Of the cotton used.
The cotton goods trade is In a
strong, healthy condition, notwith-
standing the handicap Of short SUD-
ply OF dye stuffs. But even this is be-
ing In measure provided against with
other coloring matter; then. too, the
use Of white goods Is becoming more
prevalent.
AS to the growing crop 1t is too
early to quote figures except that
condition OF 81 per cent for Alabama
is good. but that does not relate to
acreage or probable size Of crop. Last
year we made l,75O.000 bales; this year
will probably not produce even 1885,
