ESTIMATES OF Till CROW. Dun biiJ Company (.mention the Keliuhil Ity of the liovcritment Hefiorts-The Cotton Crop. Now York, Sept. n. It. (1. Dun nnd company in their weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will soy: A slight set-back which may menu much or nothing, according to the final outcome nf tlie crops, Is not unexpec ted at ll:.ls season. If the government crop reports were correct, the situation would not be encouraging, lint not much contlth'iiee is placed In the re duced estni.iale of corn: none at ail In the estimate of wheat, and even the most enthusiastic bulls do not think 11 worth while to nuote the government report as to cotton. The fact Is that we are beginning to market not far from 2.llou,niM,ooo bushels of corn, though only about iiOO.UOil.OOit bushels w.ill be moved from the counties, wheru It Is grown; about 4."iO,UiJh,0"i) bushels of win at of which tlie farmers are unwisely holding back a large propor tion; and ubuut ",i!0n.Oilu bales of cot ton, If the bitter indications are not eriotieous, as .they very easily may be, to udd to the stock carried over. The wheat crop Is evidently larger than the depart men t has estimated, though nobody knows how much larg er, and Is coming forward with more encouraging rapidity, no less than H, 77:!,17i! bushels having been received tit western ports against fi.t -Id, ;'.") bushels for the same week last year, from a much larger crop. Th.' price declined sharply, about 2 ceiils per bushel, with little Indication of recovery. The price of corn bus also yielded with a strong prospi ot of the laigert crop ever grown, and at lis cents at New York a lar.ge proportion of the crop will be of Httle profit to farmers. It we are to have a large crop of gmln nnd a small crop of cotton It is natural to Infer that manufacturers may find large transactions at the west, but not at the south. There is. In fact, n very late di rnand for goods at the west and west-bound shipments are uusuully large, although the cist-bound ship ments from Chicago for four weeks of .August amount to only 2I0.H1S tons against 2:2.111- for ihe same week in lVii. v.
