Hubbard Bros. & Co.’s Cotton Letter.
NEW YORK. Oct. 0.—A alow decline
brought about by hedging against pur
chases In the south was the record of
the day on small transactions. There waa
no disposition to antlcljwte a permanent
decline here, as the trade fooj that & set
tlement of*the strlko will not bo long
dolyacd, and they do not care to be short
at present prices. In fact, the south
seems to be more bearish than th# north
at the moment. More demand for goods
waa reported from Fall River, but nn In
vestment or speculative demand wo.
misting, which, under/ ordinary condl
tlons, would be preqt$U ( on . this basis.
Many i
rumors were in circulation, but
we see no reason why tho difficulties
should not be arranged by diplomacy.
More December appeared for sale, but
October waa In demand all day.
