Hubbard Bros. x Co.'S Letter

New York, May 6.--(Speeial European advices were distinctly favorable this morning. continuing to show strength on the nearby deliveries and maintaining full price on the distant. as compared with our close. Realizing orders were in
 July at the opening, but they were quickly absorbed as were those at high CT prices during the day. The principal buying is believed to have come from Chicago parties, who sold freely earlier in the week. Undoubtedly the bulls sold to check the advance. which. if contin- ued, might draw cotton here for delivery
 but the demand from the short interest seems likely to continue. as our stock grows emaller while those who are long, in expectation of a squeeze, do not sell. With good weather the new crop Is main. tained by the strength of the old, and the demand abroad from spinners who are able to contract for their goods far ahead of the present basis.

cicely Hamilton in the London Daily

Cicely Hamilton in the London Daily Mail.
 Our pastors and masters were alto gether wrong when they told us that in order to make our way about in France, Germany or Italy we must give good years of our lives to French and Ger man and Italian; must wrestle with grammar, consider construction and ap- ply our minds unto odium. There may be there are-excellent reasons for ac- quiring foreign language; you may be destined to move to foreign society, you may want to read Dante or Daudet in the original you may b6 desirous of earning your living as correspondence clerk, a Cooks interpreter. waiter, or a member of the corps dipiomatique. For any or all of these motives you might re- quire to specialize in a tongue that was not your own; but to say that an inti- mate acquaintance with & tongue that is not your own is needful for the mere get ting about in a country that is not your own, is a glaring misstatement of fact that only a sch0olmaster should dare to put farward--and that only 8 people trained and duled by schoolmasters would swallow without dissent. The fact being that tie schoolmaster insists on teaching us German grammar which we shall never want and French idioums which we shall never use for the same reason as he insists on teaching us most of the other subjects in his clrriculum; not because he imagines that they are going to be of any particular service to us in after-life, not because he Is entire ly blind to the probability that, when once we are out of his classroom, we shall do our level best to forget all about them-but because they are convenient subjects for him to teach, and he has learned (more or 1ess) how to teach them.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans, May 6,-Cotton futures opened steady at an advance of l point on the old crop months and a de- cline of to , points on the new. Cables were favorable and sustained the near months. but the distant months were under pressure because of the fa- vora ble weather map. The cotton belt reported no rain whatever over night and temperatures were more season. able than they have been in several days. The prospects were for con-
 nued fair weather over Sunday. lm-
 sdiately after the call the new crops were to 6 down but shorts com menced covering 1t this level, and at the end of the first half hour of bus mess prices were unchaaged to ? points up, compared with yesterdays close the old crops stood , to 1 points up.
 Around the middle of the morning shorts began to cover In increased volume and they found the ring offer ing little cotton. The result was that the tendency of the new crop months to decline was checked while the old crops were put to about the highes, levels of the week. In spite of the good weather outlook there was lit- tie short selling at any time. At the highest of the morning the old crop deliveries were 6 to points over yes terday's close and the new crops were 1 to 9 over. The close was steady. unchanged to 6 up, compared with yes- terday's last prices
 Cotton futures closed steady un- changed to 6 points up compared with yesterdays close.

B|G HOLDERS
 SLASH PRICES
Offerings From the Outside Overnight Reach Great
 Total

Chicago, May 6.-Owners of the big. concentrated holdings of wheat here had to slash prices for that delivery cents bushel today to head off shipments which were being headed toward Chicago from all directions New crop months suffered also, but only to a limited ex- tent, closing easy 2s@1ac to 1sc under last night. Latest figures. on corn were 1s63sc down and oats 1s@4c to Ac down. In hog products there was a net gain Of 56 121ac.
 Urgent attempts on the part of cash houses to sell May wheat at the open ing disclosed at once the fact that offer ings from outside overnight had reached a staggering total Thereupon all SUD- port was withdrawn in a hurry. Bull leaders practically threw up their hands and at least for the time being let the market go to pieces. First sales of May were the highest of the season, 9Ss4c to 97e, a drop of 1ac to s4c from the night before. Then there was a plunge 10 See in few minutes and as brokers vainly tried to excuse stop-loss orders, vio- lent smash followed, the bottom not ap- bearing until 9315c was reached-exactly cents loss in all. Moderate buying on the part of shorts caused a rebound, which in the end left May just 1c up from the low point Rains in the Canadian northwest had some effect in easing new crop months, but by far the greater in huence was the collapse of the May de- livery. July ranged from S7lsc to S9c, and close 1ac down at SS4dSSasc.
 Huge receipts at primary centers tend ed to make corn weak. The fine weather for planting was likewise an incentive for sales. It was evident also that east ern demand had greatly diminished. July fuctuated between 52ssc and 52a4c, with last sales 52ss@621zc, leaving the net de- cline 1sd1c. Cash grades were easy No. ? yellow finished at 541a055c.
 Prospective increase of arrivals here caused the oats market to slip backward Excellent crop progress was factor in giving prices a bearish turn. High and low limits for July proved 10 be S2$4@32ssc with the close 1s@14 off at 32ssG321hc.
 The meagreness with which offerings came from packing houses and specula- tors opened a way for an advance in hog products. When trading ceased, pork and ribs had gained 71a@121kc and there was 71ac addition to the cost of lard
 Future quotations were as follows:

COTTON MARKET
 |S IRREGULAR
In Spite of Considerable Realizing Some High
 Records Are Made

New York, May 6.-The cotton mar ket was somewhat irregular today but in spite of considerable realizing for over the week -end near months made new records for the movement with the close very steady on the old crop and steady on the new, net points higher to points lower.
 The opening was steady at unchanged prices to an advance of points with the new crop relatively firm on tho steady showing of the cables and bull ish week -end figures Favorable weata- CT reports inspired some selling of the late months and after the opening prices eased off to a net decline of , or points on these positions but the old crop ruled generally very firm Tn the late trading, and prices advanced sharply on bullish support and cover Ing by Wall street shorts. July con- tracts reached 15.4Sc or points above the closing figures of last night and even with the high record for the season made last December and around this price leading bull brokers sold just enough to check upward movement Old crop positions closed within point of the best but the new crop was 9 or points of from the top owing to tiio ldlIult bI lDS NGSteTn belt 1Ofe- cast to indicate the expected rains over Sunday.
 It called for increasingly cloudy and unsettled conditions in Oklahoma, how ever, and with the low barometer noted yesterday in the northwest working southward, there was just enough un- certainty over Wednesday weather con- ditions to prevent any aggressive sell ing for short account Estimates for Mondays receipts at leading pofts were heavier but the bullish idea that they foreshadowed a bulge In the export movement was confirmed to some eN- tent by the fact that the amount Of cotton on shipboards at the close of the week showed an increase over last year. Domestic trade accounts showed n.tle or no improvement, curtailment of production in Fall River being esti- mated at 150,000 pieces for the week. Liverpool, however, reported con tinued good trade.
 Receipts at ports today, 7630 bales against 12,440 last week and 5739 last year
 Today's receipts at New Orleans 296G bales against 2154 last week.

LITTLE TRADING
 ON STOCK MARKET Only Evening Up of Ac- counts By Profession
 als Marked. Day

New York, May 6-Tradingafell off de- cldedly in the ntock market today, and was characterized by the same hegtating tone that had ruled during the greater part of the week. Operations apparently consisted for the most part of an evening" Up of accounts by the professionals. Prices declined somewhat and then recovered. Net changes for the most part were insig- nifcant and there was an absence of any thing approaching initiative on either side.
 A decline of more than points in United States Rubber was attributed to the show ing in the annual statement of the com pany, revealing a considerable less in profits After the first sales, however, lthis stock developed a frmer tone and recovered a part of it's. loss. Northern Pacific was one of the strongest stocks, rising in response to statements that earnings for the current year would be more than sufficient to meet dividend re- quirements
 The Mexican situation took on new phase with the announcement that tele- graphic communication with some of the leading states in the republic is now con- pletely cut off. Advices. official and pri- xate, which reached Wall street indicate that there is little hope of immediate ad- justment of the difficulties, and the possi- bilty of further complications is recog- nized as a restraining influence. The fort nightly report of the American Railway association showed an increased number of idle cars, although the two previous statements reported decreases.
 The conspicuous feature of the weekly bank statement was the large decrease in actual loans. For the sixth consecu- tive week non-member banks and trust companies reported a loan increase, that item this week approximating $9,00o,000. With local money conditions almost em- barrassngly easy the bank statement ex- ercises little influence.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, s1,S51, ,00o.
 United States 2s declined 4 on call for the week.
