Prices OF Money, bonds, Stocks,

NEW YORK, January 8-Prices were
slaughtered in the afternoon trading on
the Stock Exchange to-day, especially
those properties. including local traction
lines, which were most benefited by the
markets buoyancy yesterday. Prices
opened with fractional appreciations, In
/ sympathy with London, which traded
moderately both ways, though buying
slightly more than it sold. Large opera
tors were not very active in the local
market until the late trading.
There appeared TO be a general under
tone Of strength in the early transactions,
but the temper gradually changed, and
rumor mongers were not idle. Among
other efforts to depress the market, there
was circulated an unfounded story that
the United States Minister to Spain had
sought the protection Of the British en-
bassy at Madrid. Realization of profits
by large interests aided the bear raid,
uncovering stop-loss orders, and the mar
ket closed at or near the lowest, and
very weak.

prevail Of the resolution declaring for the
psvment of government bonds i'm either
gold or silver was used by traders as
bear card. The resolution presented IN
the House i'm the form Of an amendment,
for the recognition OF Cuban belligerency,
was not known until near the closing
hour.
In the general list the decline from the
nigh point ranged from 1 TO points, but
the net losses in most. cases were frac-
tional. The ease of money and the ia
yorable statements OF railway earnings
had little influence on prices.
