| New York Nov. H.-Taken altogether
| the movements at the stock exchange
to-day were less important than on any
previous day since the election. Oper-
ators were mixed in their views as to the
market, and business was of a hand-to-
mouth character. The developments, if
any, were favorable to higher prices.
The rate for sterling was reduced y cent
and money was easy. On the other hand,
the apathy of the foreigners and the fear
of complications with Spain, in conse-
quence of the Cuban instruction, tended
to induce caution on the part of the spec
ulators generally. Sugar, after rising to
119A, declined to 117A. The selling for
inside account gave rise to reports that
the trust to have fresh competition in the
near future and that officials are disin-
cliued to load up on account of the near
approach of the reassembling of congress.
