Messrs Hubbard. Price & Co. s cotton circu-
! lar Of to-day says: The effect of the death OF
| the German Emperor, so far as cotton is con
cerned, seems to have been fully discounted
the opening call showing good buying and some
! covering for local shorts, who have persistently
| followed the decline. The strength of the
| Liverpool market is due to the good state of
trade which exists in Manchester at the
| moment, and the comparatively small stock of
| American cotton now there and atioat for
| Liverpool The advance of the morning, how
ever, failed to be sustained, because of the de-
| moralzalion which existed among traders here,
! who, after their recent experience are timid
and inclined to realize quickly either losses or
profits on the bull side The interior movement
is full, but receipts at the ports supposed to
come from accumulated stocks
