HUBBARD BROS. q CO.'S LETTER.
New York, June 11.-(Special.) I'm
der the influence of the gold trade de-
nrand the market has shown more
strength than any of the trade antici-
pated; this, too, with rains reported
In sections of Texas where rain has
been sadly needed, together with the
most perfec bureau repor since 1850
In fact it Will be difficult to imagine
any factor which has not appered to
depress he cotton market, for the past
forty-eight hours. The South and
West have been free sellers of the new
crop positions, but the demand has
been sufficient to absorb all UIlelf OIleE-
ing's and to maintain the market above
last nights prices. Declines have come
when heavy selling orders were exc
cuted, but the market has certainly
shown more strength than expected
The August sales seem to have passed
into stronger hands. Those of that po-
sidion has been the strongest in the
market On June the pressure has been
lessened, due, it is thought, to the pos
sibility of cotton coming there from
New Orleans. Few orders have been
received from outside sources to cover
a portion of the recent sales and our
market closed steady at the best prices
of the day. The improvement was
mostly upon the nearby deliveries, but
the movement of the day seem TO show
the existence of a larger short inter
est than estimated, and if the demand
for cotton from Liverpool and the con-
tinent continues at the present rate
a further advance is not unfayOrable.
A better feeling in financial circles
over the prospect Of sound money
platform at ST. Louis contributed TO
the improved feeling. The spot market
to-day was quiet at unchanged prices.

NEW YORK, Nov. ITO no place in
this broad land was the news Of Nc
kinley's sweeping victory more grateful
than to Wall Street. 1t was not re-
markable, therefore, that that locality
Was this morning in a state OF hilarity.
Lower Broadway, Wall and Nassau
streets and Exchange Place were early
crowded with bankers, brokers and
their clerks, while a multitude OF sight.

positions in the Stock Exchange gale.
ries, as it was expected that on the
floor of the board room Wall Streets
emotions would find their most noisy
and excited expression.
There was noise enough this morn
ing, and it was the deep roar arising
from hundreds of throats claiming the
results of the victory for which they
have worked so hard. And they got it.
The opening was at phenomenal burst
of strength. On enormous transactions
stocks opened at gains of from l to I
points. So excited was the trading
that it was impossible to fix the actual
first prices in many cases. The London
market for Americans showed big adj
vances. Several brokerage houses had
established uptown offices, which were
Kept open all night that their clients
could take advantage Of the London
market.
1t was estimated that orders were
sent to London last night aggregating
100000 shares.
A feature of the situation was the
sensational drop Of nearly 3 cents an
ounce in the price of silver bullion.
The throng of spectators in the gal
lery Of the Stock Exchange was one Of
the densest in the history of the insti-
tuition. Al conservative estimate
l 800 pers ons were in the gallery.

AT THE WHITE HoUsE.-There was
no concealment OF the qualification
caused by the election result among
the exclusive party that read the re-
turns at the White House last night up
on the Presidents invitation.
Secretaries Olney Carlisle. Morton.
Lamont and Wilson, the two latter
having voted respectively 10 New York
and West Virginia, and FASTENED back
to Washington, shared with the Presi-
dent the full enjoyment of the bulletins,
which from the first, as one OF the
Cabinet officers declared, were "all our
way
The President took an unusually
deep interest in the returns and Was
glad to find his confidence in the out
come fully confirmed. Fruitless efforts
were made by number OF newspapers
to secure authoritative statements from
the officials present regarding Mcku-
ley's election, but all such advances
were firmly repealed, and even Private
Secretary Thurber sent word to all in
quirers that he was too busy reading re
turns to see anyone.

THE ELECTION.

William Mckinley, of Ohio, the re-
publican candidate, was yesterday
elected President of the United States
by a large majority of the electoral vote.
He swept the country by astonishing
majorities that surpassed the e1pecta.
tons of every one. and the republicans
will have large majority in the next
House of Representatives. The indica-
tons are that there will be straight
out republican majority in the Senate.
Sound-money republican Senators will
succeed Hill, of New York, Cameron,
of Pennsylvania, Voorhees,. of Indiana,
Black burn OF Kentucky, Vilae, of Wis
consin, and Kyle, of South Dakota.
There is now silver majority of thirteen
in the Senate. Indications are that
soundmoney Senators will have ma
jority.
McKinley's plurality over Bryan in
New York city is 1859 while that
in the State will be 10000.
Frank S. Black. tho republican can
ddate for Governor, is elected by 24O-,
600. The republicans have elected % re-
publican Congressman to the democrats
six. They will have about 10 out of
the 80 members Uf the State Assembly.
Maryland's plurality for Mckinley is
about $1,000, of which Baltimore gave
20,922. AL the republican congressman
in Maryland were elected. The republl-
cans will control the next City Council.
Henry Stockbridge was elected ad-
ditional judge. Both of the loan ordi-
nances were carried.
Mckinley carried Illinois by 100, 900,
and Altgeld was defeated. Chicago
gave nearly SO, 900 for Mckinley.
Some of the other republican MAORI
ties claimed are Ohio, 100000: Irdi-
ana, $4,000; Iowa, 100000 Maine, go
900; Massachusetts, $4,000; Pennsyl.
vania, 277, 900; Michigan, 100000; Min
nesota, $4,000, West Virginia, $1,000;
Wisconsin, $4,000; New Jersey, 10000;
Nebraska, 1900.
Some of the democratic majorities
were: Alabama, 10000 Colorado, 100,-
600; Arkansas, 25,0OO South Carolina,
$4,000; Louisiana, 10000; Mississippi,
$4,000; Virginia, 10000; Georgia, 40
600; Florida, 5000.
The three Mckinley electors were
chosen in Delaware, although the demo
Gratis appear to have succeeded in elect
ing their State ticket and the legisla-
ture, thus insuring democrat in the
United States Senate to fill the vacancy
existing from that State by the failure
of the Senate to seat Mr.. DUPONT. Bry-
ans home precinct in Lincoln, Nebr.,
gave Mckinley 1877, Bryan 10l: scatter
ing II.
Returns so far received indicate that
the electoral votes of the respective
States will be as follows

promised to assist the South if she
would make stand for her rights, de-
claring that troops from their section
sent to assail her would have to walk
over their dead bodies, and then basely
deserted her, joined her enemies, and

But there is nothing new under the

sorely grieved at the defeat of their
party's ticket, many Of them are not at
all disappointed.
