Especial 70 The Hcrald)

EDINBURG. Texas. Aug. 3i.-A de-
crease was noticed in the number of
bales Of cotton pinned in the city last
week. there being only 400 gnned. 200
less than was ginned at the height Of
the ginning season each week. This
brought the total number ginned up to
3.6l0, and by the middle Of next week
il is expected that 1000 bales will have
been ginncd. which is the number eS-
timatcd by the gin managers early in the
season. But this will be more than
reached, for although decline has been
noticed there are still many fields from
which enough cotton will be picked to
make at least 900 bales or possibly
more before the gins will cease operation
for the year.
On Thursday strict middling was
