Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. February S.-tSpecial )--Liv- erpool again led the advance. coming 5 points better than due. Here the open ing advance was met by heavy profit taking under which the market rolapsed into dullness at slight improvement. and Liverpool lost part of the ad- vance.
 Early in the afternoon the same char acter of outside buying appeared as dur ing the past few days, carrying the mar ket upward some IS points until the offer ings from the south caused reaction, but the undertone was firm at the close. with the trade looking for points more advance in Liverpool.
 As the market advances the offerings of cotton from the south increase. Many who never expected 10 obtain present prices for their large crop and who meant to hold. are now selling. while the offer ings of the new crop which advanced but little today. are evidence that the ten- dency to- decrease the acreage will be overcome by the price. By March about 13. .0G0000 bales will he in sight. The bulls hold that enough cotton has beer sold forward out of this crop to take care of any surplus which may exist this is the basis of their faith in higher prices.
