Cotton Off.

Cotton has been wild the past
few days. The Government
crop estimate issued Tuesday
predicting a yield of only 11,137,-
900, or 55.7 per cent condition,
sent the New York market up
200 points, spots touching $500.
w. T. Covington & Co. bought
over a hundred bales here Tues
day and Wednesday at 35c. The
firm paid 34ac for while this
morning, but the New York
market had a big break and so
the prevailing price paid here
today was 33ac. New York
market spots dropped 145 points,
closing at 1855, and October
closing at 1875. This is $50
points under the closing of
Thursday of last week.
