The Atlanta Constitution Predicts Higher Prices Later On. Cotton experts, including middle men and purchasing agents, agree in sating that the reason why the inL-omiug crop is selling at 9 cents and fractions above is because of the conditions in the money market. While it is admitted that there1 is money enough in the banks and ivailable to them to handle the crop it 10 cents and more per pound, and the mill people would gladly stock ap for future needs around that' 5gme, they cannot get the ready [ loan money from the banks for thatj purpose. Even now the southern ( nills are buying in only small quan:ities because of the possible contingencies of the market and the uuwillingness of the banks to advance noney for larger supply stocks. Many mills that use from twenty to afty bales per day have out orders :o purchase so many day by day, and lrging sales of their goocts to supply cash for current purchases. The banks are keeping close watch ni crop reports and on the cotton joods markets. The latter have been rery tight recently and no great increase of demand for the piece goods s felt even yet, with the oncoming >f winter. Prices do not rise because he consumption of the goods lias j 'alien off, indicating that the people aunot rr will not pay more for ,hem. Yet this condition cannot long renaiu. The cotton is needed and must je taken up by the manufactuiers, vho cannot afford to allow their slants to lie idle. Cotton is cheaper :odav, calculated on the basis of viable crop and probable demand, at LO cents per pound than it was a rear ago at 8.50 cents per pound.? Atlanta Constitution.

Manning, October 15.?Special!: A very disastrous fire broke out this morning between 3 and 4 o'clock iu the large department stores of W E Jenkinsou. Several hundred people quickly assembled, and did what they could in saving goods and impeding the progress of the file. One part of the building was saved as a result of its having fire-proof doors. The adjoining store, occupied by the Manning Grocery Company, was a total loss. The losses, as near as can be determined, are: W E Jenkinson, loss on stock between $30,000 and $40,000, with $21,000 insurance. The goods in the millinery and fnrnitnre departments, valued at some ? 5,000, were saved with considerable damage thereon. The above losses do not include 1 the building, which is valued at several thousand dollars, protected by a reasonable amount of insurance, and owned by the Rev S A Nettles, of the South Carolina Conference. The Manning Grocery Company lose3 1 about $6,000, insurance $3,500. The ' U B Loryea drug store will lose by damage to building, by falling wall, possibly $200. B A Johnson, general merchandise, lost, in removing stock, possibly $200 or more. Manning is without protection against the fire fiend.?News and Courier > Will Gin Your Cotton.
