Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, February 2.-(Special)-In a very quiet market prices slowly advanced on rather more favorable advices from Liverpool and a spot demand in the south more than sufficient to absorb the offerings. Our focal trade remains bear ish. They consider the advance in Liv- erpool is only, the temporary effect of war contracts in Manchester.
 After February IS there can be no buy ing and selling of contracts for American account in Liverpool. as the Lever bill Imposes a tax of Pc a pound on such transactions. Liverpool may be the low est market in the world, yet every Amer ican is prohibited by this tax from buying because when he wishes to sell he must pay this tax.
 We do not know how this will affect ''Cif'' business, though that is governed by Liverpool, Bremen or Havre standards and therefore probab bly, taxable.

MAY WHEAT SCARS ID $l.65 BUSHEL
Highest Price in 17 Years. Only Exceeded Twice
 Since Civil War

Chicago February May wheat today rose ssac to s.6o a hushel, the highest in T. years. and more than double the price of spot cash in July before European hostilities began The mark has been ex- ceeded only twice since the civil war, in 1898, when Joseph Letter paid si.s5 and in 1888, when s2 was exacted during the Hutchinson corner.
 Today 1t simply was question of get ting the wheat. Buyers appeared to re- gard the subject of price as merely a detail. Excited purchasing, which began at the opening, reached its widest pitch in the last few minutes. Final quota tions were the highest and the market in the end virtually was bare of offerings.
 Alarm at Liverpool, where startling upturn in prices resulted from German submarine attacks on British merchant vessels, was what chiefly influenced trad ing. Assertions of excessive export de- mand especially Itaiy's 100000 bushel purchase, also helped. Among the sur prising features was the absence of vio- lent reactions.
 Response by corn to the wheat bulge proved relatively small, with the market closing nervous. a4c to saa7sc above last night. Huge stocks kept corn traders conservative.
 Oats, like corn, were heavily traded in, but also rose only s4dasc to 1c net. Hedg- ing and realizing was plentiful.
 Provisions were in active demand, de- spite bearish figures regarding stocks, and closed 2iRc lower to a like advance.

DEMAND SENDS UP PRICE OF COTTON Close at New York Steady at Net Gain of , to '
 Points

New York. February s.--Reports of a more active spot demand in the south were accompanied by an advance in cot ton today, and the close was steady at a net gain of to points. October con- tracts sold at 9s9c, or points above low level of last Saturday, and within Il points of the seasons high record.
 Liverpool made a steady showing with private cables attributing the advance to an improving spot demand and the con- tinued absence of hedge selling. There were a few overnight selling orders around the local ring, probably to real ize profits after yesterdays advance. and first prices were 1 point lower to points higher. The market showed a very steady undertone, however and while there were reactions of or , points dur ing the middle of the day, the general tendency was upward on reports of a more active demand from New England mills and exporters. Active months sold s ing and closed within 2 or points of the best
 Trade interests were good buyers during the day, while there was also covering by recent sellers and a considerable demand from Wall street and western sources. which was partly attributed to shifting of investment interest from grain to cot ton. There appeared to be little south ern selling toward the close, but offerings were more generally attributed to reallz- ing on the advance.
 The semi-weel<ly interior movement showed shipments. of some 10000 bales in excess of receipts, and the continued free movement to the ports now is said to be partly at the expense of stocks of the counted interior towns.

 TOSHOW STRENGTH Best Prices of the Day Are E Registered in the Later \ Operations

New York, February 2.--Stoclxs were Consistently strong for the better part of today's session, regardless of an- other spectacular rise in wheat and adverse weather conditions. which were partly responsible for the relatively light dealings. Best prices were reg 4istered in the later operations, bst re- Aessions were general toward the end, when it became known that the Brit ish government had declared it's in- tention to regard all foodstuffs shipped to its enemies as eontraband.
 There was some early selling of Can adian Pacific and other international shares, which seemed to proceed from manifested an uncertain tone. Latest developments on the war were reflect ed in the uncertain attitude of the British and French markets. Selling of gilt edged securities was a feature at both centers, with little effect how ever, on local markets for foreign ex- change.
 Less than the usual number of spe- cialties participated in today's move ment. but among these Sears-RoebuclS was prominent for a sharp decline rom its recent rise. American Can sold off on publication of the annual re- port, showing a decrease in net earn ings. The company's balance for 1914 was slightly more than in the previous year, but that was because no ap- propriations had been made for inn provement of the property.
 Local and interior financial jnstitu- tions bought moderately of commercial paper but the low rates for these con tracts is now on par with ruling quo tations for time loans on collateral. An Indication of the widespread ease of money is found in the fact that Chi cago is quoting the same rates for commercial paper as prevail in this market
 Northern Pacific was the only inn portant railway system to submit its statement of December earnings. It showed a net loss of s461,000. Numerous minor lines also showed decreases in net earnings for the month, with re- duced operating expenses.
 Bonds were firm. the feature being American Telephone 41as, which touched a record figure. Total sales Tar value, were $2,040.000.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.
