Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. January 16--(Special.)-Ma chester is doing more business, and while they expect lower prices for cotton in the future, they are calling some cotton now because of this demand for cotton goods Our own spinners are quite as doubtful as to present values of cot ton. while the trade is frankly surprised that the market should improve now. The opinion Is generally expressed that there will be little reduction in acreage with cotton at present prices for the new crop. Few express the belief that the advance can be sustained, and they are the ones who take very broad and very long view of the market
 Most of the traders are inclined to meet the advance, expecting the Manchester demand to fiatten out. There must, how ever. be some demand for cotton goods throughout the world, and it will have to be supplied from Manchester.
 So far as America is concerned the dis tress in the large cities of the east is very heartbreaking. but 1t should slowly improve, under the new feeling through out the country that enterprise must be stimulated, not fined
 From the west there is a much better demand for cotton goods.

Cooks and Serves Her
 Pupils Hot Noon Lunch
From the New York World.

rion the New 1Ork World.
 Kalamazoo, Mich.-Thers is one dis trict school in Michigan where the pupils are served a hot lunch at noon. 1t is located several miles south of Kalama- ZOO, and Miss Martha Binder. a grad nate of the Western Michigan Normal. is the teacher who hit upon the idea
 Not only that, but this teacher each year has every pupil in tho school raise small garden and. all kinds of vese- tables. and some even raise small fruits with success.
 In the school Miss Binder has arranged a small stove. on which cooking can be done. She provided the cooking utensils. and each child was asked to provide his own dishes At the noon hour Miss Bin der prepares the hot foods, the menu being changed each day.
 The children, in addition to what is served by the teacher. carry with them a portion Of their lunch and, after being supplied wnh the hot food, all sit at a table and enjoy just as good a meal as could he spcured at home
 Many teachers about the stata hava sought information from the school as to the way the warm meals are prepared and served. and if the interest displayed soon be many district schools in Michi- gan which win be serving tho pupils with hot 1uncfrss at noon, the same as in the Milwoe,d district south of this city. tl

UPWARD TREND|S
 FELT IN COTTON Highest Prices Since Ex- change ReOpened Last
 November

New York, January 16.-Highest prices since the exchange reopened last No vember were recorded in the cotton mar ket today There was an active trade from start to finish and the undertone seemed to be very firm, only one reaction being noted. Renewed buying in which New Orleans and spot houses were con. spicuous furnished an impetus for later strength, and the market closed steady at a net advance of II to 1s points,
 Liverpool's unexpected strength was the influence which started the upward movement here. According to private cables 1t was due to better Manchester reports, particularly for cloth. an ab- sence of hedge pressure, some trade call ing and continental buying in a small market The sharp response here and persistent strength after the opening seemed to indicate underlying bullish sen timent and commission house supporting orders, as well as conspicuous absence of the hedging pressure, which was some thing of feature on the previous upturn to around S90c for October
 Inasmuch as speculative buying on the advance has been largely of an investment nature, the market is almost entirely de- pendent upon hedge selling for it's supply outside of the scattered offerings from room traders looking for reactions.
 Reports from trade centers indicated A fair demand for goods with stocks in re- tailers' hands very low and willingness 10 buy at present prices for future wants.

DEALS |NSTOCKS GROW MORE ACTIVE
 -@ -sztzfa, Most of Business, However, Limited to Minor or In-
 active Shares

New York, January 16.-Dealings in stocks during today's two-hour session were more than ordinarily active, but an unusually large proportion of the business was in shares of the minor or inactive issues. Standard stocks suffered more or less from realizing sales, with some re- newal of bear activity. United States Steel, Amalgamated Copper Reading and the ,transcontinentals, which generally supply the bulk of the trading were rele- gated to the background. and were dis posed to weaken. They steadied at the close, however.
 Gains in the specialties ranged from to over points, some of these stocks ad- vancing on very small transactions. Standard Milling preferred was helped by the announcement of another sharp ad- vance in the price of flour and Mexican petroleum's rise was traceable to latest negotiations between this country and Great Britain. respecting the latters Mexican oil interests.
 Missouri Pacific, which excited some at- tention by yesterdays late rise, was less active today on denials of various reor- ganization rumors. Western Maryland is- sues, especially the preferred stock, made further gains in response to persistent buying. Erie second preferred and Dela- ware and Hudson also moved upward.
 Mercantile agencies reported steady trade improvement and increased activity prevailed at leading steel centers, some of the mills in the Pittsburg district hay ing doubled their production of a few weeks ago. .e ..
 The feature of the bank statement was the large increase in demand deposits which approximated $2S 000,00O. while re- serves increased about $15,40o,0oo, with a comparatively moderate expansion of loans
 Bonds added to recent gains, numerous low priced issues manifesting the great est strength. Total sales, par value, were $1,607,00O.
 United States government bonds also shared in the advance.

 Suodenness of the break in wheat was explained in measure by the fact that recent buyers had sought to pro- tect their trades by orders to sell out and stop losses If there should hap. pen to be a decline of 1km2he. These orders that soon overwhelmed the mar lset and kept prices plunging down here also was of considerable influence.
 Corn gave way with wheat but showed unexpected relative strength. especially as big purchases by cash houses were being hedged in the pit
