In Wall Street.

New York, May 11.-Today's two hours session at the stock exchange was the most exciting in years. The opening was strong, but later there were realizations, and speculation displayed a little irregularity. -
 After II o'clock the bulls took hold again, and for a time the market boiled. In fact, speculation had every attribute of genuine boom. Commission houses were simply overwhelmed with orders and the inquiry embraced the gllt-edged shares as we'll as the stocks of companies in the hand of receivers. The excitement was intense, endeavors to execute orders Purchases for foreign account cut an important figure in the dealings New York Central is at tracing great attention abroad, and at the close there was still a number of orders for foreign account unexecuted. The demand for the dividend payers possessing the for eigners is easily explained. Today money is quoted as low as h@h per cent while New York Central and other standard cent per annum. Today's shipments of securities to Europe were the largest for long time
 The buying of the Changers was ,due to the improved outlook for the crops! Dis tillers rose on the advance in spirits. Sugar was buoyant on cables that -dd the eOo beet @ crop low last years yield The insurrection in Cuba renders it practically. certain that ing, and as the American Sugar Refining company is reported to be the largest hold CT of raws, the bulls had comparatively little difficulty in forcing the stock up to 116.
 The Willard party was conspicuous in the Northern Pacifis, Oregon Navigation and North American. Of these Navigation scored the greatest gain and sold up 5 points to 29 points.
 The trading was again enormous, the sales of stocks for the two hours footing up 33S 900 shares. Advances in prices ranged from 10 to o sr to een sa 5 m tn i16A Baltimore and Ohio to .64; Whisky 2 to 22%; Northern Pacific preferred 23s to 27; St. Paul and Duluth PIE to 291a; St. Paul and Duluth preferred to 95; Omaha pre- ferred 2h to 1141s and the remainder of the list anywhere from F to IA per cent. There was good buying for the low priced issues, and Wheeling and Lake Erie; Louisville, New Albany and Chicago; Atchison; Read ing and Pittsburg and Western preferred all sold at the best figures yet. attained. Speculation closed buoyant, with, prices for the active issues A to 2ss per cent above yesterdays figures. The speciaites show gains of 2h to 10l2 per cent
 shares, and of unlisted stocks 50000 shares.
 The railway and miscellaneous bond mar ket was also buoyant. Sales were $3,229.- 900.
 New York, May 11.-Money on caft was cent, and closing offered at llz per cent. Prime mercantile paper, BOA per cent. Bar silver, 664c.

s,nn,s cotton Review

New York, May 1.-The Suns cotton re- view says Cotton rose or points, and closed steady at net advance of to 5 points, but lost part of this. Liverpool de- clined 1-32d on the spot, with sales of only 1000 bales Futures declined to 2ls points.
 Spot cotton here was very quiet and un- changed. The southern spot markets were dull. Augusta was somewhat weaker The port receipts were Ss1o bales. against 6551 bales this day last week and 2262 bales last year. The New Orleans receipts on Mon day are estimated at 200 to 2500 bales, against 36l0 bales last week and 1196 bales
 last year The Chronicle states that the
 weather in the south in the main has been
 of a favorable character; that beneficial
 rain has fallen in most localities. but in the coast section of Texas moisture Is needed; that the temperature has been sat isfaetory and planting is nearly completed and cotton is, as rule, doing well. The North Carolina bureau claims that there will be a reduction of 20 per cent in the acreage.
 Today's features: Dispatches from the south report cooler weather and the signal service predicted light frosts in Mississippi. Louisiana and eastern Texas. The weather news in a word, was the theme of the most of the bull talk today, and the market certainly showed more strength. regardless of comparatively unimportant decline in Liverpool where the trade dropped to very small proportions. and regardless, too, of
