Hubbard Bros. 6 Co.'S Letter.

New York. December -s.-tSpeeial )-Al the morning the market was extremely nervous with the traders loathe to have any interest over the bureau report This was not the case with the outside pub- lie, who bought freely in the early after noon absorbing the realizing which has been the feature of the past three days This taking of profits by many of the original bulls checked the advance, but the close was firm and cables from Eu- rope since then are bulish in tenor, look ing for sharp demand for cotton goods from the eastern markets. In the short time remaining of the session the trade has never had an opportunity to consider the effect of this estimate. which was lower than any one expected.

THIEF AFTER CASH
GETS $50 FROM POCKETS OF
TROUSERS ON MONROE STREET.
During sunday Night Some One Enters
40I and AIT Monroe street
and Rifles Pockets
of Sleepers.

A sneak thief went through the
trousers of four men IN two Monroe
Street, houses Sunday night and got
away with over $50 in cash.
That one man did the work in the
two houses which were entered, Is
shown in the fact that IN each instance
the trousers were snatched from the
room of the sleepers and carried to the
rear-~of the house, where they Were
pilfered of their Contents and in two
instances, the trousers were thrown
under the house. There is no clue to
their visit came Monday morning, when
the four victims were panied to dis
cover that their trousers were missing.
At the home of Mrs. C. r. Ellis, 40l
Monroe Street, the robber entered the
room in which slept owen Ellis. her
son and @. s.. Brannen. Young Ellts's
trousers were carried to the rear of
the house where they were thrown
aside after the contents had been ex-
tracted. The sum secured from them
amounted to 1880. When Brannen's
pants were searched the robber found
that he had made a water haul as he
