New York, Feb. 22.-The Evening Post's
London financial cablegram says: 1.-The
stock markets here were momentarily
steadier to-day. Americans opened above
the parity on bears closing. The bull ac-
count has been reduced, but the feverish
feeling continues and further news of the
rate cutting war of the Canadian Pacific
: is quite sufficient in itself to account for
the weakness. Money is dearer and con-
tangoes on Americans at the settlement
are to 515 per cent"
