Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, August 19.-(Specfal)- The spot business in Liverpool is at an absolute standstill no sales, no re- ceipts. no exports, the future markets responding to our advance with little doing. With the present condition of affairs in England, the cotton mer- chants there are not sending orders to the south for early shipment Prob ably it Is this feature which brought about the free selling of October and December here today from the opening causing the weakness in the absence of a new buying demand. The interest has been greatly capitalized during the past two weeks from the effect of the two very conflicting factors, the re- ported deterioration in Texas and the closing of the Manchester mills.

 New York, August 19.-The Financier says this week:
 The New York clearing house bank s and trust companies continue to gain in cash, the increase for the current week, according to the statement of actual conditions issued Saturday, having been $6,O27. 1000, which is just about what preliminary estimates had foreshad- owed.
 The drastic liquidation in the stock market was perhaps accountable more than anything else for the reduction of S23,621 ,000 in loans. This item has decreased something like $S5,OO0,OO0 within the last 30 days.
 The decrease in deposits was not as large as the changes In other items called for amounted to only $S,15O,0O0. This, however. lessened reserve re- quirements by $2,000,000 and. added to the cash gain, brought about an increase in reserve of $S579,400. the eX- cess reserve about the 25 per cent min mum now standing at $35,432,35O.
 The contraction in loans seems to have been confined, for tho most part, to banks proper rather than to trust com panies, as the statement of the latter in stitution made independently to the state ranking department showed a decrease in loans of only $30O0,OOO.
 The statement of the clearing house banks, based on averages, did not differ materially from the statement of actual conditions except that the increase in re- serve figured on the basis of averages. amounted to about $l0. 0.25O,o0O the excess standing at $s1,797.O0O.
