Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter.

New York, February AL
though the market closed at about last
evenings prices, 1t should have main
tanned the early improvement as the ten
ders were promptly stopped, so that the
European arbitrage interest in March
were buyers all day. In the afternoon
liquidation for outside account began
again bringing about the decline to the
quotations of last night. leaving the trade
discouraged.
Cablegrams from Manchester reported
business as very poor with some quiet
intima ton of short time while the action
of the yarn association at Charlotte in ad-
vocating a one-third reduction during the
next four months were factors that prob
ably caused the selling of the afternoon.
1t was reported that tenders of 10000
bales of high grade cotton were made
this morning.
Liverpool is expected 3points lower to-
morrow.
