It is noted that the freight movement, both castward and westward, is unusually heavy. The movement of gold does present cause especial stringency in the money market here, because currency is com- in from the interior.

On this point there is a unanimit of opinion quite unsurpassed. Our advices as to decreased cotton acreage published last spring ave fully corroborated. The re- port to Bradstreet's contains the substance of reports from 1,809 correspondents in 671 cotton growing counties, an of nearly thr reports to e county, | in all averaging about 8 per cent of the cotton growing wuarea in the | United States. Though weather during the picking season this year on the whole was not as good as last year, it still wasso favorable for gathering the erop throughout | a large area 1o be worthy notice. The fine showing mude by the Carolinas, Geor- | gia and Florida is worthy of note. In Ala- bama, Mississippi Texas tho | showing in this respect is good to fuir.

The best reports as to these questions | come from the Carolinas, Ge und Flor- | ida, where the crop has been gathered in ex- collent condition, with the staple white and elean, though a little short in places and the | lint dry, thus affecting the weights of the bales, with little complaint of frost dumage, though the lateness of the season naturally | affected unfavorably the late growth. From Alabama, Mississippi and the south- west thero is more talk of damage from | frost, with naturally fower advices on top erop and quality, particularly in Alabama | and Mississippi. The showing made by | Arliansas, due to the late wet fall and early frosts, is a poor one. ‘The question on the crop movement being | out, the statement is made that the cropis | moving faster than usual. The lute ad- | vances in pricoare said 1o be responsible for this. In this counection the smalluess of stocks held av interior points is freely in- stanced. There is also said to be of ginned cotton, in preceding years so frequently wentioned. The replics 1o the question s to the percentage of the crop still unpicked shows that there was on December 6 from 2 per cent remaining in the south Atluntic states to 7 per cent in the | Mississippi valloy and Arkansas.

New Youk, Dec. 16, —Bradstreet's weckly Wall street review says: The \l ment of £1,230,000 gold to IZurope this weelk was apparently less influential upon the temper of speculation than the possibly e aggerated rumors prev wd to the shipments next week. Tlic condition of the | country's foreign trade renders the export | of considerable s a natural and | unavoidable pro £10.000,- 000 more gold will be taken to the continent next week appears to be somewhat over the mark, Nevertheless there is little doubt that £,000,000 and more will go out. As the New York bank surplus s ready down to £,000,000, such drain \ would, in tho =~ Dbest of times, create concentration in the loan market and force more or less speculntive liquidation, according to its duration and severity. At | this moment, however, an additiona cation is created by the existence Sherman act, and the duction of the treasur balance of specie. Wall s not, in practice, taken o pessimistic view of the'situation. 1t is, however, now forced to regard the possibility light premium on gold or the appearance of the treasury as a borrower fox the purpose of replenishin gold reserves and maintaining the silver ificates at a parity with gold as dir in the act g hi ac ship- a CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENTS, Omaha's Figures for the Weel are Gratify- ing in the Extreme.
