New Orleans Futures
Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, July 12.-(Special.)-- )--Liv- erpool failed entirely to respond to the crop damage reports which caused the advance in our market last night How ever. there was sufficient buying on the opening on the unfavorable map to absorb the offerings. the market ruling quiet few points below last nights, close.
 The weekly weather report was of course of bullish character, as there has been entirely too much rain. But even this failed to stimulate any out side buying, and in the late afternoon cotton bought by local traders earlier in the day was liquidated, the market closing near the low. Unquestionably great deal of damage has been done in Alabama and Georgia and the wealth CT conditions should tend to increase the ravages of the boil weevil. Never theless this fails to stimulate fresh interest in the market which acts heavy and tired so that a gradually lower ten dency with the usual rallies appears to be the trend at the present time.
