MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.

New York, May 22.--The market It the
Stock Exchange was one OF spec!alties.
Today Sugar, Tobacco and aMnhattan
who still control the limited speculation.
Sugar gained nearly two points, moving
up to l24S on buying by brokers, who, it
Is said. are acting for the Havemeyer in
terests. The recent decline in refined and
the passing Of the new sugar bounty bill
by the Bundrath made number of bear
on the stock and the short interest was
quite large up to yesterday. The rally
then and the further advance today rather
alarmed the bears, who We're among the
heaviest buyers in the closing dealings
Tobacco rose "a per cent. to 67a. and closed
at the top figure. Some of the buying was
based on the idea that a settlement with
the western competitors of the company
was not far off. Manhattan rose from
1021a to 1O6ls. the refusal of the appellate
division of the Supreme court to confirm
the rapid transit commission report, hav
ing started up lively demand for the
stock. The decision practically kills the
underground rapid transit scheme. The
railway list started off weak on lower
cables and the withdrawal of 81. 900 gold
from the sub-treasury for export. The
loss. however. was merely fractional and
in the afternoon session higher prices We're
the rule. An impression prevails that Nc
Kinley or those in charge of of his canvass
have assured the banking interest of the
east that he Ia in favor of the gold stand
ard. This, with statements by bankers
that exports of the metal are likely 10
dwndle to small proportions in the near
future contributed to the good feeling
which prevailed in the late dealings. The
statement Of the Northwest road for April
showing an increase of 100000 strength
ened the Changers. Speculation left off
strong. net changes hOwing advances OF
Aa2 per cent, the latter In Manhattan.
Total sales were 1884 shares.
