Government Bonds
Stocks and Bonds.

New York. Feb. S.-The overwhelming
proportion of the transactions on the Stock
exchange to-day were in the industrial
stocks with Sugar far in the lead in point
of activity. Many factors combined to de-
press this group of stocks and the narrow
limits of trade actions in the general list
made 1T easily subject to the depressing in
huenee of the leaders, with the consequence
that the course of the market was sharply
downward during the day, with marked
rally toward the close. The dealings in
other shares were without special signifi-
cance or Importance, the course of prices
neing almost wholly in sympathy with the
industrials. The Improvement shown in
the statement of east bound tonnage failed
TO exert sustaining effect in railway
shares and the general list shows fractional
net declines. London sold at the outset,
but later turned buyer The trading was
somewhat unsettled, after the rally, but
the closing was firm.
The bond market was less active. but a
fairly good undertone prevailed near the
close, when some concessions occurred in
the speculative issues '-

DR.. NANSEN HONORED.
Receives the Medal of the Royal Geo.
graphical Society Mt the Hands
of the Prince of Wales.

London. Feb. S.-There was an impressive
scene at the Royal Albert hall this evening

about 1000 persons. the Prince of Wales
presented Dr. Nansen, the Norwegian eX-
plorer, with the special medal of the Royal
Geographical Society.
Earlier in the evening, DR.. Nansen was
dined at the Imperial institute, the Prince
of Wales, the Duke of York and other
notabilities of the Royal Geographical So
ciety being present. The party then re-
paired to the Royal Albert hall. where an
immense audience awaited them. 1t in
cluded all the most distinguished people in
London. The boxes were crowded with
women in beautiful toilettes. DIR. Nansen,
who was accorded most enthusiastic re-
ception, delivered his lecture in a modest
manner and illustrated the subject by pho
tographs, which had been obtained by him.
self.
At the conclusion of the lecture the
Prince of Wales presented him with u
large gold medal. 1t is the second time
only that this medal has been given to

first to be thus honored. The medal is
large and hondsome and has in high relief
the head of DIR. Nansen, amid Il running
circle of bay leaves. Outside the bay
leaves is the inscription: Presented by
Royal Geographical Society for Arctic Ex-
plorations 1S93-1S96.'

The effect on this market was exceedingly

found the market against them. The de-
mand for light and heavyweight woolens
was of renewed Importance as it also was
for wool dress goods. There was Il wide
