HUBBARD BRO.S & CO.'S COTTON
LETTER.
New York, June 17.—The steadiness
of our. market on Saturday brought
about a very fair response in Liver-
poor this morning, and on this tho
heavy- rains which are reported to have
fallen in the Mississippi valley and the
Atlantic states, to the injury of the
young plant, brought about rather a
disposition in our market to take on
a little. Cottop crop accounts as a
whole are father less favorable than
of late, and it was a little to the sur-
»-i«e of the local trade when New
S^sSians began to sell heavy in this
market. Some of the local longs have
been willing to rid themselves of the
cotton which they have been carrying
of late, placing considerable depend
ence in the accuracy with which their
New Orleans friends are able to read
the situation. Under the selling, prices
have eased somewhat, but the market
is very steady. The closing hour was
marked with great weakness due to
the absence of speculative demand and
the feeling that the Southern selling
had passed into weaker hands, and it
is expected that Liverpool will open
lower and cause further weakness in
thiB market. The absence of a decline
for spot cotton is noticeable In every
market and creates a weak feeling.
Hubbard Bros. & Co.
Cincinnati, June 17.—Cotton quiet;
middling 774.
NEW YORK COTTON.
The cotton market opened wltlf a
steady feeling, but there was an ab
sence of orders either way; sellers were
noticeably scarce and the present call
finished at an advance of three points.
The market soon turned weaker and
closed easy at a net decline of 5 points.
Total sales 10,600 bales. The Liverpool
cables were conslderd to be a very
fair response to the stability shown'
by our markets Saturday. There was
a rise early in the morning on rains
in the Mississippi valey, as well as in
the Atlantic states, with Texas report
ing particularly heavy rains. Selling
orders commenced to come in from-
New Orlaens and this resulted In a
weak local feeling, which turned the
market, despite the efforts of some of
the bull houses to hold It. There was
a weak undertone at the close. Spot
cottn was quiet at 1-16 cents advance.

CHICAGO EXCHANGE.
Chicago, June 17—After a 254 cents
break on big foreign shipments, weak
cables and better crop reports, wheat
was rescued today by shorts and clos
ed but 174 cents lower than on Satur
day. July corn closed 56 cent higher:
September oats. 76 cent higher and
provisions without change.
More long wheat was for sale at the
opening, and no buyers could be found
for it at that time at within 54 to 1 cent
per bushel below the price it closed
at on Saturday. The first transactions
in July were at from 7354 to 7474,
against 74% at the close of the session
on Saturday. On Saturday June sold
as hl^h as 81%, so that exactly today’s
decline of 8 cents per bushel .took
place.
The additional weakness was due
to an early Intimation on a Liverpool
cablegram received before the opening,
that the other exporting countries of
the world had more than made up for
the falling off in the shipments from
this side. It quoted Id. lower in the
price, and added tho significant re
mark: "Shipments large." Later in
the day, when over nine million bush
els were found to have been put afloat
last week, although this country and
Canada had contribute! 1,700.000 bush
els of this, the weakness began to
day was intensified. The covering pur
chases of wheat previously sold short
wore heavy enough for about half an
hour to cause a reaction from around
74%a74% to 7454. but tho immense
amount of the week’s shipments were
regarded by the crowd, when about
10.30 a drop of 7.54 had taken place. The
market became weaker and weaker as
the session progressed up to about 12
o’clock, when the decline was arrested.
The reaction which followed the furth
er decline to 7274 was not ilue to any
noticeable outside buying of what was
being taken to cover shorts. , Crop
news was not as plentiful as for some
days back, but such aa came to hand
showed no general Improvement. From
Missouri, the tenor of the majority of
the dispatches, was that the damage
In that state had been over-stated In
placing the outlook at more than a
half a crop, and that It would turn
out about 76 per cent. From Ohio, on
the 6ther band, the extent of the dam
age was described In almost sensation
al terms, and such as to lead to a prob
able destruction of one-halt of the
wheat and oats crop. Indiana and Ill
inois have ceased to mention their
damage. The visible supply decreased
2,022.000, and the total Is now down
to 47,717.000 bushels, compared with
67.103.000 in 1894. and 66.375,000 bushels
at the corresponding time in 1833. The
northwestern receipts were 235 cars
compared with 272 a year ago.' At
lantic port clearances since last report
ed on Saturday, were equal In wheat
and flour only 163,000. One of the Items
of the day’s newB, which helped the
bears, was a cablegram from Odessa,
saying that th Russian rye cropB prom
ised to repeat the heavy yields of 1893.
being especially good. The price be
gan to Improve from 12 o’clock, and
trading at 74 cents for July was in
progress within a few minutes of the
close, the market ended at 7354.
The corn market was under a spell
of weakness at the opening, which
lasted until the agony was passed in
wheat. The feeling in corn did not. at
any time, approach the heaviness of
that in wheat, and after the receipts
• sllmated for tomorrow became known
as only 160 cars, instead of weakness
there ensued a feeling of confidence.
The receipts were 174 cars and 11,000
bushels by canal. The visible supply
decreased 7,900 bushels, against 441.000
bushels decrease a year ago. The total
In sight now Is 10,730,000, compared
with 7.003,000 bushels at a'cor res pond
ing time Inst year. July corn opened
at 4876, compared with 4854 at the close
of Saturday. The tendency was to
ward improvement, and after following
whent for an hour, prices struck out,
and closed 49%.
A very active market was reported
for oats. The "early session was re
markable for the weakness created
by free selling by New York and also
offerings of long stuff. The buying
became general, and closed steady for
July and higher for September. Sep
tember ranged from 2754 td 28%a%;
closing at 28%.
The provision market was offered for
an hnur after the opening by the va
rious changes In wheat, but later In
the day it took corn for its leader and
recovered a small decline, leaving off
firm without change from Saturday’s
closing rates. Hog receipts were 33.-
000 head.
Estimates for Tuesday—Wheat; 26;
corn, 160; oats, 285; hogs. 20,000.

GRAIN ON THE ’CHANGE.
New York, June 17:—Liquidation was
the order of the day in grain today.
Big blocks of wheat were thrown over,
resulting in a 3 cent break, of which
174 were finally recovered. Trading was
active all day, total transactions reach
ing 23,640,000 bushels. On the down
grade a good many stop orders were
caught,, thus Increasing the offerings
and adding to the bulls' demoraliza
tion. Bear points were thick among
tho most Important being the receipt
of heavy Ruslan shipments for the
week, lower cables with a considerable
foreign selling, good rains West, in
suring better crop news and an In
crease of ono and a half million bush
els In the English visible supply. The
public kept aloof, which was another
discouragement to the bulls. In the
afternoon, howevr, the market 1 braced
up considerably on talk of too much
rain, and prospects of a wet harvest
in the Southwest, coupled with an Im
proved export demand. Traders who
sold freely all the forenoon now
tumbled over each other In their
eagerness to cover, resulting In a
sharp rally, the close being strong.
The range on July, which opend at
7776. went to 78, down to 7676 and
closed at 7754 cents. Corn and oats
folowed wheat, the former developing
a good eal of activity In the afternoon.
