Oats participated in the irregularities
OF the other grain markets, but at ,he
same time exhibited an tndependen;
undertone of firmness. The exports of
this grain recently have been quite heavy

SPECULATION STRONG
International Matters Were The Controlling
Influence at the Stock Exchange.
FAIRLY LARGE PURCHASES WERE MADE
London Bought Nearly Fen Thousand
Shares OF stock, ST. Paul and l..
and n. Figuring Most Prominently
In she DcalinRs-The Buying Pows
er soon Becams Exhausted.

New York, May 12.-International
matters were the controlling influence
at the Stock Exchange to-day. At the
opening speculation was characterized
by strength, the better outlook for an
amicable settlement of the difficulties
growing out of the seizue of the Amerl-
can schooner Competitor by the Spanish
Government having led to fairly large
purchases for both foreign and home ac-
count. London bought nearly 10000
shares of stocks, ST. Paul and l.. & N.
figuring most prominently in ahe deal
ings. The early rise was equal to A@1A
per cent, the 1ndustrials, Changers and
IIGernationass leading. The buying
power, however, was soon exhausted
and period of dullness followed. In
the afternoon trading the market was
more active and prices declined through
out the list. The selling was partly
based on reports of an Anglo-Russian
dispute over territory in Chez Foo and
partly to the failure of the leading Re-
publican candidate for the Presidential
nomination to announce his position on
the currency. 1t may be added that the
professional bears are taking full ad-
vantage of the latter to bring about
liqutdations. Up to date they have not
been very successful. The decline in
prices during the afternoon ranged from
7aQ2 per cent, Manhattan leading. This
stock was sold on reports that the forth
coming quarterly statement will be I'M
favorable. Missouri Pacific, the Gran
gers, and l.. &. NJ, were also pressed
for sale. Near the close on buying to
cover short sales, prices rallied fraction
ally. Speculation closed about steady
in tone. Net changes show gains of
1s@R per cent; Manhattan lost ., Con-
solidated Gas ~, and Tennessee Coal
] per cent Total shles We're l2S,353
