HfflH&. There was a furtbor falling- off to-day 'n Jth
KBui transactions In both stocks and boruli. ItwM
HrflsaflnvV aott pronounced In ths lost nnmod. There wai
K'HH alio In many cases n further reaction In prices,
HHSI, In gplte of an advancing markot early In the
BJHHRf day, which resulted larpolr from a renorralof
KfHS'i yesterday's support from London. Wall street
BHr.t takes such a lively Interest In the Cuban
KHKV situation, with Its possibilities of a rupturoot
HK' diplomatic relations botvreen this country and
HjaHHE? Bpaln, that It scorns Inclined to Ignore, othor
ssBIiWmI v? circumstances alTectlng tbo course of prices.
isiWsHBHwv" At tha momont ln0 authenticity of the Do
BsBD Wmo letter, tho dobates In tbo Scnato
ssiV-.Bl9fr' relative to tho Cuban Insurgents, and tho
Hl'SHw j developments from day to dny at Havana cn-
K m' t, eross the attention of tho speculative commu-
B' M; ' ? lty to such an extent that comparatively little
iBEr Wh i ') ,9 ,1'1 nDOUt wuat '" taken place In tbo socu-
Hyi W- ! rlty markot within the lost six weoks. In that
V 'wii h period largo amounts of bonds and of high-
Br, 'Mi,, i grade stocks havo been absorbed by rich In-
iVjp V restore, and campaigns that presumably
iVli' sw ' ) txiv6 boen succcs8ful UKTS ucsn conducted
Hi nil ' 'i" In n comparatively small number of stocks
H 9mti ' & offected by specific considerations. Conspicuous
sH itMk- ' S nmnnir theia are MetroDolltan Street Railway.
Hj ,JK ' '? ' New York Central. Manhattan Railway, North
V jH' & em Paclflo and Union Paclflo Issues. The
K "S7 j market has been far from a general one, for a
Hr HW j Tery largo percentage of the securities listed on
sK "1 ' . tbB Slock Exchange have not participated In
Hi f(B;f , tho movement. It seems fair to Infer, thoro
WL HK $ fore, that easy monoy and satisfactory railway
K ttiK i tralllo returns havo not brought the genoral
B tHf ' f publlo Into the market. The most encouraging
HI imi ) development so far this week Is the appearance
K tlBjj ", of London as a buyer. Should tho demand from
Bj rW.-t , '' that quartor continue, a revival of looal Interest
H1 ''Hi' " I In a number of stocks that havo heretofore been
Hi , HI , 4' tpeoulatlvo favorites might reasonably bo ex
Hj -9W if pectod and might counteract tho extensive re
El 'Hf nlltlng of profits that has unquestionably taken
H Si .U placo.
H 'Ik' h Tho first hour of business was enlivened by a
sK Hfl 'if rlB0 ot "earlT 0 points in Metropolitan Street
H; K (j! Hallway. Although thero was a sharp reaction
Kr K from the highest figure, the stock retained
Bn HI f nt tho cIo0 ot business all but ono point
sH 'Hi B ' tno oxtromo advance. The movement
H lift- .y was attended by rumors of an Impend-
N 'H? I' ,nff ocrlp Hldand of 33 V cent, and
H -w k also by reports ot a raoro complcto alliance than
Hi ?HI & At Pre,ent between tho company and Its only
Ht BV v, competitor In oporatlng surfaco railways, nsmo-
Hl Ht ly, the Third Arenua Itallrond Company. Ncl-
Hi JK ' ther of these reports has yot boon confirmed,
H3, ' V but thero aro indications that thero Is n good
H, H j deal of foundation for the first If not for tho
H& B ;' second. Sugar Itoflnlng showed a littlo more
K '-Wg f(,- Tltallty than It has of late, and tho Orangor
HI: !Hx stocks were very firm under tho influenco of a
il iB' recovery in tho price ot Northwestern. Union
Hm -Hf ' '' Paclflo Issues wero bettor, on advices from
Hi H ' Washington of an Impending compromise bo-
H' :WR, I', tween the Reorganization Commlttco and
Hji H .j tho Government in the Kansas Paclflo mat-
U Ak 'S ter. Tho Qovernment has, according to all
Rj' He- '4 accounts, made Its final preparations for bid-
ski iV V ding In the subsidized portion of tho Kansas
H, nV- Sf Paclflo system at tho foreclosure sale noxt Tues-
H, HVj ! day. But It U significant that the special
K H$ -J! counsol of the Qovernment goes to the sale
K K S" ' with authority to treat with the Reorganization
HjBf fi Committee. It Is also Interesting to note that the
K) K tv "" prloo of Kansas Paclflo consols, which are a lien
wtf HH ' upon the entire system, but subordinate to that
' . Hi h; ot the Qovernment upon the Eastern and mid-
LRT 2 (U divisions, have advanced rapidly In prlco
. k ix within tho last week or more, and the mar-
HP '"'' 'or tnom to-day was not adversely
; i Hl ' affected by ovldcnco that tho Government
jBt' y,i! Intends to carry out Its programmo re-
K ;y irardlng ths subsidized portion of the road.
Ei HK; f i Manhattan Railway was conspicuously heavy
!' Bi 5 throughout, nnd, as it rankod second in respect
',; Kf-, 'rj to activity, its course had quite a littlo off oct
