NEW YORK, Feb 25.-Evening Posts Lon
don financial cablegram: The stock
kets opened good today the news Of the
decision of the powers as to Crete. Gen.
soils were an exception, however, but they
rose to 112 1916. The markets gave way
later and the close was dull and under the
best prices. The reason for the setback is
mainly financial trouble, as 1t is feared that
at the settlement tomorrow several firms in
the Kaf1r market will probaIy fall unless
they are helped over and a firm in the, for
eign market is said to be in difficulties. The
weak speculative account is probably larger
than has been supposed. Kafirs were fat for
tween the Volksraad and the judges which
is likely to have a far-reaching effect on
Afxi;an politics. Americans opened good,
but closed dull The London money market
closed slightly easier at 1916. Parcels OF
four and six months bills to arrive next
week have been placed at ia. The Paris
bourse was dull the sharp break in Span
ish securities. The Berlin market was firm.
