Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York February 2.-Ali the morning Liverpool was buying here and selling abroad rapidly. taking out their interest between the two markets. They have been the best buyers and their basis is the possible Interruption of transporta- ton, which would make cotton higher here than there. One of the largest cot ton houses was a heavy and persistent seller all the morning, supplying this de- mand, holding the market below last evenings close.
 In the afternoon further liquidation be- gan. thought to be for the buyer of Wednesday, which proved to be more than the market could stand, and it closed about a. cent below last evening.
 Under ordinary conditions a sharp re- action would be due, if nothing more, but this is not a cotton market; this is market acting under fear of diplomatic conditions, which might lead to further complications. We hope nothing will hap pen with Europe.
