GREAT BREAK IN B. go.

Of the Stock Exchange.
THE BREAK WAS DUE TO FALSE RUMoRS

Dropped 4 Per Cent, Closing at
the Lowest Point of the Dny To.
bacco, After Breaking 90 ~ I.o,
Suddenly Jumped TO 10 LII.

New York. Feb. 2T-The sensation ut
the stock Exchange to-day was the
break in Baltimore and Ohio of { per
cent. to 70 oil dealings OF 10, 500 shares.
ihe break in the stock was due to ru-
mors that the road will default on its
March interest, and that II new bond
issue Is likely at any time. Late in the
oay bankers who have lately taken an
interest In the property emphutically
denied the unfavoruble reports referred
TO above and President Cowen stated
mat according to the experts eXamina-
ton. which has been completed the
condition of the company Is as repre-
sented to the Board of Directors Feb. l.
he also said that the plan for the re-
Mobilization of the property has pro-
crossed so far as to meet with the mp
prevail of the directors and will be
ready for announcement in short
time. Leather preferred was weaker,
and on sales of nearly 10000 shares
dropped per cent, closing at the lowest
point of the day. The passing of the
dividend had an adverse influence. To
bacco, after breaking to TN, suddenly
Jumped to 1914 and closed at 1875. Sugar
was sold down from l1Sis to lIGA, raj
lied to 11SM@117a The break in the
Baltimore and Ohio weakened the gen
eral list for q time, but in the late trad
ing the sold out bulls and bears made
an effort TO recover their stocks, which
had q good effect. Net changes show
gains OF A@3A per cent. Leather pre-
1erred lost 4 and Baltimore and Ohio
4& per cent.
The sales of listed stocks to-day ag
gregated 14l, 54o shares and of unlisted
1888 shares.
