Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, January 17.-tSpecial)-The
market showed rather a better tone to-
day, advancing some to points on the
spring deliveries This Improvement is
considered only a natural reaction by
those who are looking forward to a gem
eral curtaiiment of business as we ap-
proach the tariff revision.
On the other hand We have reached
period when the visible supply COM
mences to fall below last season. and that
reans a constant demand on this market
fD.- the hedges sold against the cotton
shipped to Europe. The hedges were put
out below the cost of bringing cotton here
on the theory Of low grades and high
freights.
The strength OF January Is due to the
holdings Of that month by parties who
boughr January to receive the cotton as
these hedges made It cheaper than the
south.
Local sentiment continues bearish.
