CLOSING PRICES OF SAN FRANCISCO STOCKS
Wednesday, April 21-p. m.

Local and foreign financial markets are strong
on the impression among many spectators and
investors that the war between Turkey and
Greece will be brief. Reports Of Turkish vic
tories received to-day were accepted as decisive
by many Stock Exchange traders who, follow
ing the lead Of the London market, shaped their
transactions so as 10 protect their uncovered
shorts, accomplishing this in some cases only
after considerable difficulty. Accounts OF Turkish
successes have had stimulating effect upon the
London market, ii is thought in that centre
that the triumph Of the Turks near Larissa
would hasten the end of the war and cause
solution Of the Cretan question, while preserv-
ing the so-called concert Of the Powers. In this
market at present the local traders, as a rule.
adjust their opinions to those prevailing abroad,
prices responding generously. and making 1t
necessary for belated bears to exert themselves
assiduously in rectifying the mistake they made
on Monday in assuming that the foreign markets
would go to pieces yesterday.
British consols were again higher to-day also
Turkish securities and the Kafiirs. There was
only moderate trading IN American stocks on
the London Exchange, and In this market pur-
CHI ses for foreign account did not amount 10
over 6 900 shares. Trading here was not active,
the bulk Of the days business being furnished by
Sugar Refining. Jersey Central. Chicago Gas.
Burlington ST. Paul louisville and Nashville,
Reading and United states Leather preferred.
The anthracite shares developed noteworthy
strength Jersey Central gaining more than per
cent. and Delaware and Hudson more than
per cent The advance in these shares was ac-
companied by a report that radical changes In
the interests Of economy would be MADE IN
handling the anthracite output. 1t is significant.
as rejecting the intrinsic value Of the leading
anthracite stocks. that only small demand is
sufficient 10 cause marked advance In their
prices The general railroad list made substan-
tiaI net gains and the only weak features IN
the davis list of active stocks were Illinois Steel,
which lost rs per cent on small SAFES ana
limited States Leather which was again lower on
speculative liquidation. The foreign exchange
market was slightly easier, without change re-
garding the possibility OF gold exports. a
Stronger wheat market appeared TO be due to
foreign manipulation.
Prices for last sales Of the principal active
stocks to-day. compared with the final figures
of Yesterday were follows:
