Hubbard Bros. X Co.'S Letter

New York, June 22.-Quite a TO- markable market today, a better de- mand from Manchester brought buying into Liverpool, which were forwarded here, causing an advance here at the opening. Then heavy selling, what ap- peared to be from Wall street brokers. carried the market down some 9 points below last evening.
 In the last hour Liverpool again bought and the market closed practi- cally at last nights prices. That the market. in face of the very bearish feeling in Liverpool and here should develop an increased demand from Manchester spinners and absorb the offerings Is quite a curious feature.
