Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, December 23-(Special.l
Free selling, which seemed to come from
Wall street sources caused an early de-
cline of from z to points, which was
gradually and slowly recovered to the
end of business which was practically
at last evenings prices.
The tone of the market in Liverpool
shows that the market is without any
free offerings Of cotton at a time when
the supply is becoming less at that port.
Here our mills are running day and night
and we can expect the largest consump-
ton of cotton in America on record.
After the turn of the year it is probable
that the English government will en-
deavor to facilitate the movement of cot
ton to Liverpool in the same manner that
1t has food and munitions of war, as
1t is quite as important to keep the mills
of Great Britain running to facilitate
commerce. as 1t Is to import food The
feeling in the trade continues to be very
bearish on the theory that the south will
become tired of waiting for the English
demand and will sell cotton freely. This
Is the bearish argument which is cur
rent.
