Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'s Letter.

New York, December 4.-(Special.)- Liouidation by one of the large Wall street houses continued during the day until the market finally broke in the last hour as the orders under the market became filled. Probably the continued heavy movement and the falling off In the demand from spinners and exporters, causing lower southern markets, were the reasons which induced the liquidation Of these purchases made upon smaller crop ideas than those now current. After such a break here and in Liverpool a reaction is in order unless further liquidation con- tinues tomorrow. December continues the strong feature, the premium widening over January as the time for delivery be- comes shorter Those who are long are apparently satisfied to receive all their purchases. having sold January against them at a satisfactory premium.

 Futures opened steady at the decline. 5 to points lower than yesterdays clos ing. Cables were extremely unfavorable and bullish and bulls were not willing to give the market support because of the nearness of the bureau reports on gin- ming and yield. The market sagged ofr until it stood 10 to Il points lower than yesterdays closing. The movement was very large but was offset to some extent by very heavy exports. The market closed before any signs of a tendency to react materially were exhibited. The volume of business was small and most of the trading was professional. The close was steady, with prices standing at a net decline of to Il points.
