The Cotton Outlook.

The New York Post in its annual
review of the cotton situation pre-
diets an increase acreage and an in
creased yield in 1922. The expert
of The Evening Post estimates that
there will be carry-over Of Amerl-
can cotton of about 100000 bales
at the end of the present cotton year
and he says that neither Egypt nor
India will be able to dispose of all
of their existing surplus. There
FORE" he concludes, "The course of
prices for cotton the ensuing year
will depend largely upon the acreage
at the start of the new crop, together
with the way the financial industrial
situation and outlook Of Europe shape
up during the next month or two.
If the new crop of 1922 should indi-
cate a yield of as high as 100000
bales by the time the first Govern
ment condition and acreage report
comes out about July 2, a price Of IL
or 20 cents pound would seem nigh
with the condition in Europe continu-
ing to call for adherence to rigid
economy"
Very few people in this part of the
world believe that crop of 14,OOO,-
900 bales is any longer possible, now
that the boil weevil has invaded the
entire cotton belt. 1t is difficult,
however to determine just what per-
centage of the injury to cotton in
1921 was due to disastrous seasons
and what percentage was due to the
boil weevil. In the coastal section of
South Carolina the cotton yield has
been decimated where it has not been
wiped out entirely. Many up-country
farmers still believe that they are not
going to be seriously affected. In the
middle part of the State the produc-
ton has been cut in half. In the
eastern section they expect, in coun-
ties like Darlington and Florence, to
produce at least as much cotton in
1922 as they did in 1921.
Probably the present year should
reveal just about how many bales of
cotton can be expected hereafter from
the American crop. The Evening
Posts expert may we'll be right in
his prophecy of a greatly increased
acreage. The real question is as to
how much cotton car be made in
States like Georgia and South Caro-
lima, planting as much cotton as the
growers are able to finance.-News
and Courier.

The Bravest are the Tenderest.

Watching q fire in the mountains,
the company admired its scenic
grandeur. General Lee remarked:
ut is beautiful, but have been think
ing of the poor animals that must
perish in the flames"
Near Richmond as G. storm of shell

ing pillow!"
At the door of his home, having
given aims to a poorly clad man beg

form and said to one near him, "That
is one of our old soldiers now in
necessitous circumstances. He fought
- the other side, but we must not
remember that against him now"

County Attorney OF
Speeding Past Scene OF
Philip Carberry's Death
May Make New Charge
Brother.in.Law, ,NowAccused
of Manslaughier, Said to
Contradict Own Story

A new aspect was given yesterday 70
the death Of Philip Carberry. the
Hempstead automobile SalOsmsn whose
body was found on the Glen Cove Road
between MlneolA and Bull Head Mon
day night. with the face crushed, neck
broken and Jaw smashed. Two afhdHvits
we're taken BY District Attorney Weeks,
Of Nassau County, from automobllists
who believe that In dashlng By two
supposed hold-up men at the scene OF
Carberry's death they ran over man
who was blocking tho road. Two other
occupants Of this car corroborated the
afldavits orally, and this version OK tne
salesman'a death was further supported
by cyclist who. said that two men
armed with a revolver had tried 70 stop
him at the scene few minutes before
the automobile passed.
After describing an attempt 70 nola
up his automobile, Lester Gillen, OF
Hempstend, said in his affidavit that
he and his three companions had &C.
ei6ed 10 make second visit TO the
mot where two men had tried 20 block
the narrow passage left between ths
ditch and a small automobile turheu
across the road.
1--WE saw the shorter OF the two men :,
standing in the road with his hand up,
the AFFIDAVIT continues. Il am gong
through them said, and sped on: l
believe the man who was blocking tne
road was struck by the car and fell'
but wo did not stop, because we De-
lleved our lives were In danger"
As result OF this evidence Il is be-
lleved the charge OF manslaughter en-
tered against Carberry's brother-in-
law. Tony Bolekieki, with whom Car
berrv lived in Mineola, will be changed.
He was arrested after the police, who
raced 10 the spot to investigate the at
tempted hold-up reported BY the cy-
elist. found him standing beside the
body. He Is declared 20 have told con-
dieting stories. in one OF which ne
admitted that he had killed his broth
er-in-law by mistake while they were
lighting OF six hold-up men, and in
another declared Carberry had been
struck By an automobile during this
seufhe.
Bolekieki made no denial that the
automobile mentioned by both the
automobile party and the eyelist as
turned across the road had belonged
70 himself and his brother-in-law. This
with the fact that only two bandits
arc mentioned by the other witnesses,
Is considered important BY the police.
