New York, Sept. 9.-Hubbard Bros. Co.
say of cotton to-day: Europe received
so many offers of prompt shipment from
! the Southwest last night that Liverpool
! did not respond to our local steadiness Of
yesterday. Foreign markets expect a re-
duction in the bureau report to 81, but
| evidently consider that the Improvement
west of the Mississippi will offset any de-
mand east of the river, as a result Of
| the recent rainy weather Selling against
| purchases made in the South broke our
market to-day. though the trade is some
| what impressed with the continued rainy
weather through the Atlantic states. Each
! day it rains now makes the date of frost
| more important to a large section of the
! cotton belt. Unless crop estimates be
! come reduced it will be difficult for this
/ market to absorb the hedges which are
! being offered against spots"
